On the Wall

Below is an important petition from the desk of Jay Sekulow at The American Center for Law and Justice.

I believe this is the worst thing I have seen from the Obama Administration to date. That our government has been sending millions of dollars to a country that has been on the fence about their alliance to the United States is way out of line. That Egypt is now led by a member of the Muslim Brotherhood who has avowed to destroy Israel and invoke Shariah law in that region is incomprehensible. That our U. S. President has still promised fighter jets as well as U.S. troops to train Egyptians to fly them is beyond common sense or reason. But none dare call it treason...
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
On Sunday, Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood President declared martial law while he pushes through a new constitution based on Shariah law.

Today, news reports say the Obama Administration is set to send them 20 American-made F-16 fighter jets that cost U.S. taxpayers $200 million. American servicemen are expected to train the Egyptians on how to use our weapons.

Another Shariah dictatorship on Israel's border – armed with American weapons – cannot be allowed to happen.

The ACLJ is demanding that all aid to Egypt be cut off until Congress can certify that it is in the interest of U.S. and Israeli national security.

Sign our Petition to Stop Funding Egypt and Defend Israel today.

Jay Sekulow
ACLJ Chief Counsel


Please spread the word.

SOS ~ Saving Our Sovereignty

Below is an email message from Senator Rick Santorum.  He has been working tirelessly on our behalf to fight this UN treaty that will rob us of our sovereignty. This is only one of many that may be coming our way. We need to set a precedent with this one! Be pro-active!! Make a call; spread the word. It's time.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
We learned late yesterday that the Senate has scheduled a vote on the United Nations Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD) for Tuesday, December 4.
We have to re-up our efforts to stop this treaty from being ratified. Please help us defeat this treaty by doing the following things right now:
  • Call the Capitol operator at 202-224-3121 and ask to be connected to your Senator. Tell your senator to oppose the U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities because it jeopardizes our sovereignty and threatens our rights as parents to make decisions for our special needs kids.
  • Tweet this: #CRPD threatens parental rights/US sovereignty. Call your senators/ask for "NO" vote on Tues. (202) 224 3121  http://ptrtvoic.es/Tlh7qn                                              
  • Post this on Facebook: The US Senate will vote on Tuesday on U.N. Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities (CRPD). This treaty threatens parental rights and US sovereignty. Please watch this video, then call your senators and ask them to vote "NO". (202) 224 3121 http://ptrtvoic.es/Tlh7qn
  • Forward this email to five friends, and ask them to do each of these action items and sign our petition to stop CRPD.
Remember, if just 67 senators vote in favor of this treaty, CRPD would become law of the land under the U.S. Constitution's Supremacy Clause, would trump state laws, and could be used as precedent by state and federal judges. 

As a father of a special needs little girl, I believe that it is up to parents to make choices for their children, not the government. Yet, that's exactly what this treaty will do.
Please, we must defeat this treaty now.

Thank you,

Rick Santorum signature
