One would need to look closely at what we "start-over" with.
This could be an attempt to adopt a government which legitamizes the foreign
corporate control under the guise of throwing away the old.

IAHF LIST: Please read this article carefully about a bill pending in the
Arizona state legislature wherein they're looking closely at the possibility of
seceeding from the United States.
I applaud this Arizona resolution, and strongly encourage all Americans on
the IAHF list to call this to the attention of your state legislators. If you
live in Canada, you should look into having your province seceed. If you live
in Arizona, you MUST pressure your state legislators to pass this resolution!
Find out who your state legislators are by firing up a search engine and by
looking in the front of your phone book under "government."
WHY? Aside from the good reasons listed below, I have personally witnessed
many signs from the CODEX battle that our government is already being nearly
totally controlled by the multinational corporations- the same forces that
brought martial law to the streets of Seattle in the form of jack booted police
who imposed a "no protest" zone in the center of Seattle in direct opposition
to the first amendment, and who shot hard plastic bullets directly into the
faces of protestors at point blank range, breaking teeth and jaws. Numerous eye
injuries resulted from the spraying of pepper spray and even nerve gas in
Seattle, where over 600 people were falsely arrested. http://www.indymedia.org
for details covered up by the mainstream press. We can't take this laying down-
far too much is at stake- we must seize control of our states- then take our
country BACK!
We have been denied an oversight hearing on the Codex vitamin issue by
pharmaceutical interests that control the vitamin trade associations, so there
will be no opportunity through a formal inquiry to examine the fraudulent,
unscientific paper that the FDA illegally put on the table at Codex in Berlin
in September of '98 "A Risk Assessment Model for Establishing Upper Levels for
Nutrients" A combination of Federal funds from the US and Canadian governments
+ money from pharmaceutical companies was used to generate this dangerous
paper. (See Codex oversight section http://www.iahf.com for more information)
Clearly, each state legislature must look closely at the resolution pending
in the Arizona legislature, and give serious consideration to drafting their
own.

TESTING THE FAITH
Arizona makes secession
preparations
State resolution creates 'insurance policy'
against martial law
By Julie Foster
© 2000 WorldNetDaily.com
An Arizona state legislative committee has approved a
resolution calling for the dissolution of the federal
government in the event that it abolishes the U.S.
Constitution, declares martial law or confiscates firearms
-- scenarios some say are not unrealistic. Critics of the
resolution, however, call the measure a "total waste of
time."
Rep. Karen Johnson, a Mesa
Republican and chair of the
House Committee on Federal
Mandates and States' Rights,
authored the resolution which
the committee approved 3-2.
Only the committee's
vice-chair, Republican Rep.
Gail Griffin, abstained from
voting.
Specifically, House
Concurrent Resolution 2034 outlines the origin of the
United States, emphasizing the sovereignty of the states
and their constitutional right to "establish a new federal
government for themselves by following the precedent
established by Article VII, Constitution of the United
States, in which nine of the existing thirteen states
dissolved the existing Union under the Articles of
Confederation and automatically superceded the Articles."
It also articulates constitutional violations committed by the
federal government as justification for the measure, saying
"... the fifty current principals, or signatories, to the
[Constitution] have done well in honoring and obeying it,
yet the federal agent has, for decades, violated it in both
word and spirit. The many violations of the Constitution of
the United States by the federal government include
disposing of federal property without the approval of
Congress, usurping jurisdiction from the states in such
matters as abortion and firearms rights and seeking control
of public lands within state borders," says the resolution.
By adopting HRC 2034, Arizona states its intention to
dissolve the current federal government with the approval
of 34 other states and, in essence, start over. Participating
states would re-ratify and re-establish the present
Constitution "as the charter for the formation of a new
federal government, to be followed by the election of a
new Congress and President and the reorganization of a
new judiciary," in keeping with the original intent of the
"founding fathers." Individual members of the military will
return to their respective states and report to the governor
until a new president is elected.
In addition, each state will assume a prorated portion of
the national debt and will own all land within its borders.
After the new government is formed, the remaining 15
states will be permitted to join the revised union upon
application, as was the case with the original union.
A three-year veteran to the Arizona Legislature, Johnson
told the Sierra Times the resolution is "insurance policy."
"If the federal government declares martial law or
attempts to confiscate guns, the states shouldn't have to
put up with that," she said.
Joseph Stumph, well-known author and historian, testified
in favor of the resolution at the hearing.
"We're proposing that if things get as bad as they could
get, that these states won't allow the federal government
to put us into a one-world government," said Stumph, who
is publishing a similar proposal in his home state of Utah. "I
don't expect we'll get 35 states to sign on. The American
people are not educated enough on this yet," he added.
The resolution was introduced Jan. 26, and now needs to
be approved by the Arizona House. Should HRC 2034
successfully complete the legislative process, it will appear
on the November ballot for voter approval. But one
legislator does not think the measure will be taken
seriously.
Rep. Bill Brotherton, a Democrat member of Johnson's
committee, called efforts to promote the bill a "total waste
of time."
"Obviously ... one of the more important issues we have is
mental health in this state," Brotherton said mockingly. "I
wonder if we are going to have a bill on the grassy knoll
next to decide who shot Kennedy."
Johnson said she was asked by several Maricopa County
residents to look into preventing the federal government
from asserting power not authorized by the federal and
state Constitutions. To Johnson, the resolution is a watered
down, limited version of the "Ultimatum Resolution,"
written and promoted by Stump.
Johnson said HRC 2034 was introduced in response to
recent actions by the Clinton administration regarding the
Grand Canyon. On a recent trip to the landmark, President
Clinton declared three new national monuments,
threatening the property and livelihood of ranchers in the
region.
Fears of martial law and firearm confiscation are mere
"conspiracy theories" to some, but in light of the elaborate
preparations government made for potential Y2K problems
-- including a ready-to-sign executive order giving Clinton
the equivalent of dictatorial powers -- "these fears have
become real possibilities," according to Johnson.
Johnson also made it clear that the action of possible
secession should only take place if the federal government
suspends or violates the Constitution without approval from
the state.
"There may be times when the nation may be at war, and
such steps may need to be taken. But the states should
have a backup plan if necessary," she said.
Arizona is not alone in its fears. Johnson noted other
legislators in other states are considering taking similar
steps.
Despite her current success with HRC 2034, Johnson is
not relying solely on non-binding resolutions to ensure state
sovereignty. She has been joined by a coalition of six other
Arizona state representatives, private ranchers and other
states' legislators in a lawsuit filed against the federal
government.
The lawsuit is an attempt to reverse creation of the Grand
Canyon-Parashant National Monument, which covers
more than 1 million acres of land, roughly the same amount
as Grand Canyon National Park. The group says national
monument status will affect use and access to its private
property, which will be surrounded by the federal property.
It also asks the court to find the 1906 Antiquities Act, used
to create the Parashant monument, unconstitutional. The
coalition's lawyer claims the president "has taken the act to
the point of actually abusing the rights of people in the
West."
The act gives presidents emergency authority to protect
threatened federal lands or "objects of historic and
scientific interest," but lawyer Lana Marcussen said that in
using the act for a non-emergency case, the president has
gone too far.

Repeal Antiquities Act!
