Support Czech president’s resistance to tyranny
Support Czech President Vaclav Klaus’s resistance to tyranny
By Don Hank
Recently I read an open letter written in support of Vaclav Klaus, the last holdout in Europe against the Lisbon Treaty, a document that seeks to supplant all sovereign nations in Europe in a ploy that is increasingly appearing dictatorial and anti-democratic. To understand why that is, I recommend in particular the following article showing how the EU is seeking to ban Christian speech: http://laiglesforum.com/2009/10/16/the-eu-wants-unlimited-fines-for-christian-speech/.
I am asking my readers to likewise please send their own emails thanking President Vaclav Klaus for his principled stand against the anti-democratic elites and asking him to stand firm and refuse to sign the Lisbon Treaty.
My letter to President Vaclav Klaus:
Greetings President Klaus,
I belong to several groups that support your resistance to the Lisbon Treaty. These are groups with rapidly growing memberships primarily in the US, Germany, Sweden, the United Kingdom and elsewhere.
Perhaps you are already aware that there is a new web site dedicated to supporting your principled stand:
http://www.petitiononline.com/mod_perl/signed.cgi?sptklaus&501
I am very happy to say that the signatures are being added at the rate of over 1,000 per day.
Our reasons for supporting this resistance come down to our belief that the EU is controlled from the top down and not from the bottom up — by the elites and not by the peoples of Europe.
Thus we are convinced that it is in no way democratic, to say the least.
Some articles supporting this contention are linked below:

Today I just received an email from a German group that also supports your efforts. They have published an open letter to you at their site (in German):
Mr. President, it is no exaggeration to say that you are perhaps the only hope left for a free Europe. We are asking you and praying earnestly that you will continue to do not what is politically expedient at the moment but what you know in your heart is right, resisting the currents of trendy but simplistic and misguided political ideology, just as you have done in the past.
Those of us who recall 20th Century history know that the Czechs proudly resisted totalitarianism for decades under the most difficult possible conditions, out of a noble sense of loyalty to their country and countrymen. We also know and admire a famous Czech writer whose works gave rise to the world “kafkaesque,” a word that, sadly, applies to much of what Europeans now are experiencing in their daily lives, deprived of freedom of speech, thought and action thanks to EU directives translated into laws that violate their own national constitutions (see the second link above).
We believe that your people have learned through trials and tribulations the lessons of history that many comfortable Westerners, including political activists, have yet to learn, and that you have the wisdom to recognize, and the strength to resist, totalitarianism in whatever form it may appear.
Your justification in opposing this treaty is disarmingly simple, namely, that Czechia was founded as a sovereign state under a national Constitution that was written by the elected officials of a sovereign national government and that you were elected as the leader of this sovereign nation. Your Constitution therefore cannot be superseded by any foreign power without violating the will of the Czech people as expressed in their constitution. Inasmuch as the EU government seeks to override this Constitution, the EU Constitution cannot be considered valid in Czechia and must not be signed by you as the leader of a sovereign country.
May God bless you and your country.

Keep up the good work – we in UK dont want the EU Constitution and are getting no right to have a say. We have an unelected prime Minister, MPs abusing their expenses and seem to be the testing ground for what a powerful EU could do to all our countries. Many of us support your stand. Don’t let us down.
