Would Hale have died for a North American Community?
By Ellen Williams
When I studied American history in fifth grade, I had to memorize a list of "historical sayings" by famous Colonial Americans. One of them was by the 21-year-old school teacher, Nathan Hale, captured while doing reconnaissance for George Washington behind British lines and hanged as a spy. Just before they kicked the block from beneath him, the British asked Hale if he had any last words. He said "I only regret that I have but one life to give for my country."
The world is shrinking we are told. TV, satellite communication, jet air travel and the Internet require us to think globally. NAFTA, GATT, CAFTA and other trade agreements have transformed us into a world society. Some pundits even say that nationhood itself is an outdated concept. At President
Bush's ranch in Waco, Texas on March 23, 2000, he and Mexican President Vicente Fox and Canadian Prime Minister Paul Martin adopted the "Security and Prosperity Partnership of North America." The Council on Foreign Relations, a left-of-center private organization, which influences U.S. foreign policy, believes that the "Security and Prosperity Partnership" is a progressive step toward a North American Community which will have a common parimeter from northern Canada to southern Mexico with the "free movement of people within that trade
tariff border." CFR believes this can be accomplished by 2010. (CFR Web site)
Citizens of the North American Community will not only travel, live and work freely between the three countries, but also there will be a trinational intelligence center, a trinational permanent tribunal (court), trinational Social Security totalization, trinational (common) professional standards (doctors, dentists, pharmacists, etc.), trinational centers for North American Studies ( no U.S.. history?), and an Inter- Parliamentary Group to meet regularly (governing body). (CFR Web site)
Phyllis Schlafly, president of Eagle Forum, a-right-of-center conservative watch-dog group has a different view of the President's "Peace and Prosperity Agreement." Referring to the CFR's 2010 North American Community, she says, "Community" means integrating the United States with the corruption, socialism, poverty and population of Mexico and Canada. "Common perimeter" means wide-open U.S. borders between the U.S., Mexico and Canada. Mrs. Schlafly implies that the "Peace and Prosperity Agreement," is why the
President and the Congress have not, in spite of citizen outcry, secured our border. (Phyllis Schlafly Report, July 2005)
The size and shape of the nation has changed drastically since the Sons of Liberty threw that tea into Boston Harbor and a New England school teacher uttered those famous words; but I doubt a North American Community was what Nathan Hale had in mind when he sacrificed his life for liberty.
