De val van Europa

[smiley]

In een vlaag van totale waanzin besliste de raad van Europa om kritiek op de islam te bannen door het gelijk te stellen met antisemitisme.

Selcuk Gultasli in zamn.com schreef http://www.zaman.com/?bl=international&alt=&hn=19663 "Anti-Islamisme werd tijdens de door 46 raadsleden bijgewoonde top op aandringen van Turkije in de tekst opgenomen als een "gevaarlijke neiging die moet bestreden worden". De door de vergadering getrokken conclusie omvatte ook de notie "islamofobie".

Het voor het eerst insluiten van deze notie in de Europese organisatiedocumenten is beschreven als het success van Turkije.
De top van de 3de raad van Europa vernoemde "Islamofobie" voor de eerste keer in de 9de paragraaf van de Warsaw verklaring die op dinsdag 17 mei 05 werd geaccepteert. De raad nam de volgende besluiten aangaande: Veroordeling van eender welke intolerantie en discriminatie gebaseerd op geslacht, ras en religieus geloof vooral, Islamofobie en antisemitisme inbegrepen, het gevecht tegen deze binnen het kader van de raad van Europa door gebruik van effectieve mechanismen en wetten om deze problemen te bestrijden.

Zodus zal niet alleen het anti-semitisme maar ook het anti-islamisme worden aangepakt binnen het kader van legale maatregelen. De rapporten van de raad zullen ook anti-islamitische bewegingen omvatten. De Europese commisie tegen racisme en intolerantie (ECRI) zal deze bewegingen van dichtbij gadeslaan. De commisie zal registreren in welk land dat het anti-islamisme toeneemt of hoe het is weerspiegeld.

Dit is het begin van de val van Europa. Anti-islamisme is immers niet hetzelfde als anti-semitisme. De islam is een geloofssysteem, semieten daarentegen zijn een ras. We kunnen een ras niet gelijk stellen aan een doctrine. Racisme is puur slechtheid. Naast het feit dat geen enkel ras beter of slechter is dan een ander, kan iemand zijn ras ook niet veranderen. Het aanzetten tot rassenhaat is het aanzetten tot haat tegen de mensheid. Doctrines die aanzetten tot rassenhaat moeten worden veroordeeld en diegenen die zich daar aan schuldig maken moeten voor de rechter worden gebracht.

Het verbieden om de islam te bekritiseren is hetzelfde als het verbieden om kritiek te uiten op het judaisme of op het christendom. Niemand met enig gezond verstand zou ooit voorstellen om kritiek op deze religies te bannen. Het feit dat deze religies zich hebben hervormt en aangepast aan moderene tijden is juist doordat ze werden bekritiseert. Enkel tijdens de inquisitie was kritiek tegen het christendom volgens de wet verboden. Trachten we nu de islamitische inquisitie in te voeren om de moslims maar te behagen? Trachten we de wet tegen de godslastering die in Saoedi Arabie, Pakistan en Iran van toepassing is, hier in te voeren om moslims maar gelukkig te maken? Dit is waanzin !

De islam propageert vooral de haat tegen de joden maar ook tegen de christenen die volgens de koran hun geschriften hebben vervalst en omdat ze Jezus de zoon van god noemen. De grootste veroordeling van de koran is echter voorbehouden aan de mensen van andere religies en diegenen zonder religie. Al deze mensen, christenen en joden inbegrepen, worden aanzien als najis en als brandstof voor het hellevuur. Dit is haat. Dit is haatzaaien. Er is geen andere manier om dit te beschrijven. Waarom bannen we de koran niet? Waarom veroordelen we de islam niet voor het regelrecht aansporen tot haat?

Het besluit van de raad van Europa is oxymoronisch. Hoe kunnen we nu het anti-semitisme veroordelen als we geen kritiek mogen uiten tegen de islam dat aanspoort tot haat tegen joden en zegt dat god hen in zwijnen en apen heeft verandert? Is dit geen belediging?

Er is een fundamenteel verschil tussen religies en mensen. De ene is gemaakt van vlees en beenderen en de andere is een doctrine. Mensen moeten worden beschermd, doch doctrines hoeven geen bescherming. Zij moeten daarentegen worden onderworpen aan een kritisch onderzoek en in vraag worden gesteld en indien zij als gevaarlijk en fout worden bevonden moeten zij worden verworpen. Doctrines die haat tegen mensen propageren moeten worden bekritiseert en gebannen, niet beschermd.

Hoe kunnen we nu de rechten op leven en vrijheid van de mensen beschermen als we tegelijkertijd ook doctrines beschermen die aansporen tot haat tegen hen? Indien iemand moslims vuil en onzuiver noemt zet hij aan tot haat. Die persoon zou moeten worden gestopt. Dit is duidelijk een racistische beledging. Doch de koran noemt elkeen van ons die geen moslim is najis. Najis betekent vuil en onzuiver. Waarom zou het bekritiseren van dit haatboek tegen de wet moeten zijn? Is dit niet het hanteren van een dubbele standaart? Is dit geen hypocrisie? Is dit geen dhimmihouding? Waarom zou het voor moslims moeten geoorlooft zijn om ieder ander te beledigen doch het bekritiseren van hun hatelijke doctrine voor de wet verboden moeten zijn?

Het besluit houd geen steek. Het is een contradictie. Je kan het anti-semitisme en het anti-islamisme niet tegelijkertijd bannen. De islam is anti-joods en anti-menselijk. De 2 gaan niet samen. Ze sluiten elkander uit.
Vandaag, 25 mei, 2005 vorderde een italiaanse rechter, Armando Grasso, in de stad Bergamo voor de journaliste en schrijfster van bestsellers Oriana Fallaci een dagvaarding uit om terecht te staan in haar geboorteland Italie op beschuldiging van het belasteren van de islam in haar boek "La Forza della Ragione" (de kracht van de rede) In dit boek argumenteert mevrouw Fallaci dat Europa in een "Islamitische provincie", een "islamitische kolonie" aan het veranderen is en dat "het geloven dat er een goede en een slechte islam bestaat tegen de rede in gaat".

Fallaci schreef dat terroristen de afgelopen 20 jaar wereldwijd 6000 mensen in naam van de koran hebben vermoord en zei dat het islamitisch geloof "haat zaait in plaats van liefde en slavernij zaait in plaats van vrijheid". Fallaci sprak de waarheid, dit zijn immers feiten, niet haar opinie.
Adel Smith, vertegenwoordiger van de moslimgemeenschap in Italie deed de schrijfster een proces aan met de bewering dat mevrouw Fallaci's boek beledigend is voor moslims.

En dan? De koran is beledigend voor de hele mensheid. Niemand, ook mevrouw Fallaci niet, kan zo ver gaan in het beledigen van moslims op de wijze dat de koran gaat in het beledigen van niet-moslims door hen kafir (godslasteraars) najis (vuiligheid) brandstof voor het hellevuur, vijanden van god enz. te noemen. En de koran stopt daar niet. Het spoort eigenlijk aan tot geweld tegen de niet-moslims. Mohammed vroeg zijn volgelingen om terreur in de harten van de ongelovigen te zaaien, om oorlog tegen hen te voeren, om hun hoofden boven hun nek af te hakken, om hen te misleiden, om hen te vermoorden waar je hen ook maar kan vinden, zelfs om hun vrouwen te verkrachten. Waarom zou zulk een boek moeten beschermd worden en waarom zou het bekritiseren ervan verboden moeten worden?

Europa is een zeer gevaarlijk pad aan het betreden. In Europa kunnen nu 2 dingen gebeuren.

1. De islam word met rust gelaten om ongecontroleerd te groeien, wat betekent dat Europa nog voor het einde van deze eeuw aan de islam zal worden onderworpen. Of.

2. De Europeanen zien het gevaar te laat in, panikeren, en doen het Eurofascisme geboren worden om het islamofascisme te counteren.
In beide gevallen zal Europa worden vernietigd.

De vrijheid van meningsuiting beperken, vooral door het bannen van kritiek tegen een doctrine van haat, is stompzinnig gevaarlijk. Europa speelt met vuur. Het pad dat Europa vandaag heeft genomen zal nog voor het einde van deze eeuw leiden tot haar val, zeer waarschijnlijk zal het uitmonden in een burgeroorlog in de volgende 2-3 decennia.

Bezorgde Europeanen moeten

- Schrijven naar hun eerste ministers, presidenten en het recht eisen op vrijheid van meningsuiting en het recht op het bekritiseren van doctrines van haat. De islam zou geen privileges mogen hebben die het christendom of het jodendom of eender welke andere religie niet heeft.

- Campagnes organiseren om de vrijheid van meningsuiting te verdedigen en om de resolutie van de raad van Europa te verslaan.

- Kandidaten steunen die hun ziel en je land niet willen verkopen aan islamisten enkel en alleen maar voor stemmenwinst.

- Politiekers zijn zoals prostituees, de ene zal alles doen voor je geld, en de andere zal alles doen voor je stem. Boycot die PC politiekers en partijen die toegeven aan moslims alleen maar voor hun stem, met jouw stem bij de volgende verkiezingen.

- Steun massaal partijen die een anti-moslimimmigratiebeleid voeren en die niet bang zijn om een kat een kat te noemen. Stem voor partijen die je misschien niet echt mag doch die duidelijk interesse tonen om je land tegen het islamofascisme te beschermen. Op dit moment is Europa redden immers belangrijker dan je politieke overtuiging.

Raar dat er op dit zeer interessante en belangrijke artikel (nog) geen reacties zijn gekomen.
Indien men noteert dat het originele artikel reeds dateert van mei 2005 en met de wetenschap dat er ondertussen in dit land een partij reeds werd aangeklaagd wegens "Islamofobie" kan men gerust stellen dat de Iranier Ali Sina hier de nagel op de kop heeft geslagen.

Het is blijkbaar nodig om mensen de horen die de totalitaire islamitische staten zijn ONTVLUCHT (Ali Sina, Afshin Elian) om te weten wat ons toekomstbeeld brengt.

En... niemand reageert? Is het dan al zover gevorderd?

[Pelgrim]

Ik zou wel kunnen reageren, maar wat de EU dictatuur schrijft is voor mij per definitie zever.

[Flippend Rund]

Verbiedt de wet tegen antisemitisme kritiek tegen joden? Ik denk van niet.

Waarom concludeert smiley dan dat de wet tegen anti-islamisme gelijkstaat met het verbieden van kritiek op islam?

En waarom zou een politicus die zegt "als ik dan al ergens foob voor ben, laat me het dan islamofoob noemen", dan worden aangeklaagd?

Waarom worden schrijvers die kritiek uiten op islam voor de rechter gedaagd? Omdat kritiek op islam m�*g? Misschien nu nog een beetje, maar het gaat wel snel bergaf. Tijd om zeer snel en hard aan de handrem te gaan trekken.

[FJL]

De Raad van Europa, waar dit artikel op terugvalt, heeft niets rechtsreeks met de EU te maken.

"Oorsprong en leden


</STRONG>De Raad van Europa, de oudste (1949) politieke organisatie van het continent:
• brengt 46 landen samen, waaronder 21 staten in Centraal- en Oost- Europa, heeft van nog één ander land een aanvraag voor lidmaatschap ontvangen (Wit-Rusland) en heeft de status van waarnemer toegekend aan 5 andere staten (Vaticaanstad, Verenigde Staten van Amerika, Canada, Japan en Mexico),
• onderscheidt zich van de Europese Unie van de “25”, maar geen enkel land is ooit tot de Unie toegetreden zonder eerst lid te zijn geworden van de Raad van Europa,
• heeft zijn zetel in Straatsburg (Frankrijk)."


Het heeft overigens geen wetgevende bevoegdheid. Ze onderhandelen over verdragen waar de lidstaten van de Raad zich aan houden (199 tot op heden).

Dit artikel als kritiek op de Europese Unie gebruiken getuigt van beperkte kennis van de EU.

[circe]

En over welk "verdrag" denk je dat ze zich in mei 2005 hebben gebogen? Het verdrag dt islamofobie zal verboden worden!

[Beagle]

Dit is schokkende informatie, waarom haalt dit niet de media? Anderzijds was het voorspelbaar en is het maar één stap in de islamisering van Europa. Als de dwazen het begrepen zullen hebben wat dit teweegbrengt zal het natuurlijk te laat zijn.

Misschien heb ik verkeerd gekeken. Maar bij mijn laatste opzoeking kwam er geen Islam of eender welke andere fobie in dat specifieke verdrag voor. Zou je me kunnen vertellen waar ik de tekst van dit "Verdrag verbiedende de Islamofobie" kan terugvinden?

Misschien kan je een kopij van het verdrag van Warschau opvragen?

The 3rd Council of Europe summit has for the first time mentioned "Islamophobia" in the 9th paragraph of the Warsaw Declaration that was accepted on Tuesday, May 17. The Council has reached the following decisions regarding the issue: Condemnation of any kind of intolerance and discrimination based on gender, race and religious beliefs in particular, including Islamophobia and anti-Semitism, the fight against these within the framework of the Council of Europe and the use of effective mechanisms and rules to combat these problems. Thus, anti-Islamism as well as anti-Semitism will be dealt with within the framework of legal proceedings. The Council reports will include anti-Islamist movements. The European Commission against Racism and Intolerance (ECRI) will closely monitor these movements. The Commission will record in which country anti-Islamism increases or how it is reflected

.

"islamofobie" (een term die tenandere is uitgevonden door de PC en islamisten) wordt hiermee op gelijke voet gesteld met anti-semitisme. Als je het artikel nogmaals leest wordt daarin duidelijk gemaakt dat kritiek op een IDEOLOGIE onmogelijk kan gelijk gesteld worden met kritiek op een zogenaamd RAS.
Waar is trouwens de verwijzing naar christofobie? naar judeofobie? Deze laatste "fobieën" mogen blijkbaar wel worden getolereerd, enkel 'islamfobie' is uit den boze!
Wie d�*�*r het gevaar niet in ziet, mag 'islamfobie' even vergelijken met 'nazifobie' en zich voorstellen dat we eind jaren dertig van vorige eeuw leven.

ik zou dat nog niet zo waanzinnig vinden.
De uitzonderingspositie die de jood tot op de dag van vandaag heeft zien vast te houden is zo bedreigd. [SIZE=1](alsook het totaal controversiele beleid van de moderators hieromtrent[/SIZE]).Op deze manier gaat "antisemitisme" ook een vrij uitgehold en leeg begrip worden (zoals racisme, democratie, etc) waardoor er terug ruimte is voor overtreding en kritiek daarop.

[circe]

Nogmaals Ambiorix, de tekst geeft duidelijk het verschil aan tussen anti-semitisme (gebaseerd op zogenaamd "ras") en anti-islamisme (gebaseerd op een ideologie).

[Ambiorix]

wel ja, als dat wordt verboden, geef toe dat er dan massaal de wet gaat overtreden worden
allé hoe kunnen ze iemand verbieden om kritiek te uiten over een bevolkingsgroep dat niet eens een ras is? dan ga ik even zéer hard met de voeten van deze "wetgever" spelen hoor, er zijn grenzen maar dit overstijgt de redelijkheid.

Nogmaals: Het Europees Parlement heeft hier NIETS mee te maken. De Raad van Europa is een ANDERE instelling.

Je reageert op een stelling en een analyse die op zich op niets gebaseerd zijn. Je maakt je kwaad en spreekt over de vreselijkheden die in onze toekomst liggen, terwijl je feiten niet kloppen.

Ik heb de tekst bekeken. En ik heb er geen verwijzingen naar welke beschuldiging dan ook in teruggevonden. Geen Islam, Geen fobie,...

Je zal zelf nog eens moeten verderzoeken vooraleer je mensen bang wil maken. Anders is dit forum voor jou niets meer en niets minder dan een plaats om jezelf wat interessanter te kunnen voelen met dat oproer kraaien.


Hier hoeft geen handje vasthouden. Of toch zeker niet het mijne...

Waarom veronderstelt U dat ik niet zou weten dt de Raad van Europa een andere instelling is dan het Europees Parlement? Ik verwees gewoon naar het parlement omdat ik vermoed dat je daar gemakkelijk een kopij van het Verdrag van Warschau, ondertekend door de Raad van Europa zou kunnen bemachtigen.

Maar ik zie dat U de tekst reeds heeft gelezen.

Vermits U blijkbaar de hand heeft kunnen leggen op het Verdrag van Warschau zoals overeengekomen door de Raad van Europa, gelieve zo vriendelijk te zijn om ons deelzaam te maken in uw expliciete kennis en ons hier ook een kopijtje te posten?
Met dank.

Hier is je Verdrag dat 'door de Raad van Europa' is getekend in Warsaw. Het wordt niet opgelegd aan de landen. De landen beslissen zelf het te tekenen en te stemmen in hun eigen parlementen.

Veel plezier ermee...

Article 18 – Extradite or prosecute
1 The Party in the territory of which the alleged offender is present shall, when it has jurisdiction in accordance with Article 14, if it does not extradite that person, be obliged, without exception whatsoever and whether or not the offence was committed in its territory, to submit the case without undue delay to its competent authorities for the purpose of prosecution, through proceedings in accordance with the laws of that Party. Those authorities shall take their decision in the same manner as in the case of any other offence of a serious nature under the law of that Party.
2 Whenever a Party is permitted under its domestic law to extradite or otherwise surrender one of its nationals only upon the condition that the person will be returned to that Party to serve the sentence imposed as a result of the trial or proceeding for which the extradition or surrender of the person was sought, and this Party and the Party seeking the extradition of the person agree with this option and other terms they may deem appropriate, such a conditional extradition or surrender shall be sufficient to discharge the obligation set forth in paragraph 1.
Article 19 – Extradition
1 The offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention shall be deemed to be included as extraditable offences in any extradition treaty existing between any of the Parties before the entry into force of this Convention. Parties undertake to include such offences as extraditable offences in every extradition treaty to be subsequently concluded between them.
2 When a Party which makes extradition conditional on the existence of a treaty receives a request for extradition from another Party with which it has no extradition treaty, the requested Party may, if it so decides, consider this Convention as a legal basis for extradition in respect of the offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention. Extradition shall be subject to the other conditions provided by the law of the requested Party.
3 Parties which do not make extradition conditional on the existence of a treaty shall recognise the offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention as extraditable offences between themselves, subject to the conditions provided by the law of the requested Party.
4 Where necessary, the offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention shall be treated, for the purposes of extradition between Parties, as if they had been committed not only in the place in which they occurred but also in the territory of the Parties that have established jurisdiction in accordance with Article 14.
5 The provisions of all extradition treaties and agreements concluded between Parties in respect of offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention shall be deemed to be modified as between Parties to the extent that they are incompatible with this Convention.
Article 20 – Exclusion of the political exception clause
1 None of the offences referred to in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 of this Convention, shall be regarded, for the purposes of extradition or mutual legal assistance, as a political offence, an offence connected with a political offence, or as an offence inspired by political motives. Accordingly, a request for extradition or for mutual legal assistance based on such an offence may not be refused on the sole ground that it concerns a political offence or an offence connected with a political offence or an offence inspired by political motives.
2 Without prejudice to the application of Articles 19 to 23 of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties of 23 May 1969 to the other Articles of this Convention, any State or the European Community may, at the time of signature or when depositing its instrument of ratification, acceptance, approval or accession of the Convention, declare that it reserves the right to not apply paragraph 1 of this Article as far as extradition in respect of an offence set forth in this Convention is concerned. The Party undertakes to apply this reservation on a case-by-case basis, through a duly reasoned decision.
3 Any Party may wholly or partly withdraw a reservation it has made in accordance with paragraph 2 by means of a declaration addressed to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe which shall become effective as from the date of its receipt.
4 A Party which has made a reservation in accordance with paragraph 2 of this Article may not claim the application of paragraph 1 of this Article by any other Party; it may, however, if its reservation is partial or conditional, claim the application of this article in so far as it has itself accepted it.
5 The reservation shall be valid for a period of three years from the day of the entry into force of this Convention in respect of the Party concerned. However, such reservation may be renewed for periods of the same duration.
6 Twelve months before the date of expiry of the reservation, the Secretary General of the Council of Europe shall give notice of that expiry to the Party concerned. No later than three months before expiry, the Party shall notify the Secretary General of the Council of Europe that it is upholding, amending or withdrawing its reservation. Where a Party notifies the Secretary General of the Council of Europe that it is upholding its reservation, it shall provide an explanation of the grounds justifying its continuance. In the absence of notification by the Party concerned, the Secretary General of the Council of Europe shall inform that Party that its reservation is considered to have been extended automatically for a period of six months. Failure by the Party concerned to notify its intention to uphold or modify its reservation before the expiry of that period shall cause the reservation to lapse.
7 Where a Party does not extradite a person in application of this reservation, after receiving an extradition request from another Party, it shall submit the case, without exception whatsoever and without undue delay, to its competent authorities for the purpose of prosecution, unless the requesting Party and the requested Party agree otherwise. The competent authorities, for the purpose of prosecution in the requested Party, shall take their decision in the same manner as in the case of any offence of a grave nature under the law of that Party. The requested Party shall communicate, without undue delay, the final outcome of the proceedings to the requesting Party and to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, who shall forward it to the Consultation of the Parties provided for in Article 30.
8 The decision to refuse the extradition request on the basis of this reservation shall be forwarded promptly to the requesting Party. If within a reasonable time no judicial decision on the merits has been taken in the requested Party according to paragraph 7, the requesting Party may communicate this fact to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, who shall submit the matter to the Consultation of the Parties provided for in Article 30. This Consultation shall consider the matter and issue an opinion on the conformity of the refusal with the Convention and shall submit it to the Committee of Ministers for the purpose of issuing a declaration thereon. When performing its functions under this paragraph, the Committee of Ministers shall meet in its composition restricted to the States Parties.
Article 21 – Discrimination clause
1 Nothing in this Convention shall be interpreted as imposing an obligation to extradite or to afford mutual legal assistance, if the requested Party has substantial grounds for believing that the request for extradition for offences set forth in Articles 5 to 7 and 9 or for mutual legal assistance with respect to such offences has been made for the purpose of prosecuting or punishing a person on account of that person’s race, religion, nationality, ethnic origin or political opinion or that compliance with the request would cause prejudice to that person’s position for any of these reasons.
2 Nothing in this Convention shall be interpreted as imposing an obligation to extradite if the person who is the subject of the extradition request risks being exposed to torture or to inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment.
3 Nothing in this Convention shall be interpreted either as imposing an obligation to extradite if the person who is the subject of the extradition request risks being exposed to the death penalty or, where the law of the requested Party does not allow for life imprisonment, to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole, unless under applicable extradition treaties the requested Party is under the obligation to extradite if the requesting Party gives such assurance as the requested Party considers sufficient that the death penalty will not be imposed or, where imposed, will not be carried out, or that the person concerned will not be subject to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole.
Article 22 – Spontaneous information
1 Without prejudice to their own investigations or proceedings, the competent authorities of a Party may, without prior request, forward to the competent authorities of another Party information obtained within the framework of their own investigations, when they consider that the disclosure of such information might assist the Party receiving the information in initiating or carrying out investigations or proceedings, or might lead to a request by that Party under this Convention.
2 The Party providing the information may, pursuant to its national law, impose conditions on the use of such information by the Party receiving the information.
3 The Party receiving the information shall be bound by those conditions.
4 However, any Party may, at any time, by means of a declaration addressed to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe, declare that it reserves the right not to be bound by the conditions imposed by the Party providing the information under paragraph 2 above, unless it receives prior notice of the nature of the information to be provided and agrees to its transmission.
Article 23 – Signature and entry into force
1 This Convention shall be open for signature by the member States of the Council of Europe, the European Community and by non-member States which have participated in its elaboration.
2 This Convention is subject to ratification, acceptance or approval. Instruments of ratification, acceptance or approval shall be deposited with the Secretary General of the Council of Europe.

The decision shall be taken by the majority provided for in Article 20.d of the Statute of the Council of Europe and by the unanimous vote of the representatives of the Parties entitled to sit on the Committee of Ministers.

In respect of such territory the Convention shall enter into force on the first day of the month following the expiration of a period of three months after the date of receipt of the declaration by the Secretary General.
3 Any declaration made under the two preceding paragraphs may, in respect of any territory specified in such declaration, be withdrawn by a notification addressed to the Secretary General of the Council of Europe. The withdrawal shall become effective on the first day of the month following the expiration of a period of three months after the date of receipt of such notification by the Secretary General.

5 The activities of armed forces during an armed conflict, as those terms are understood under international humanitarian law, which are governed by that law, are not governed by this Convention, and the activities undertaken by military forces of a Party in the exercise of their official duties, inasmuch as they are governed by other rules of international law, are not governed by this Convention.

Hier is je Verdrag dat 'door de Raad van Europa' is getekend in Warsaw. Het wordt niet opgelegd aan de landen. De landen beslissen zelf het te tekenen en te stemmen in hun eigen parlementen.

In België dus waarschijnlijk al lang gestemd en goedgekeurd

Lieverdje,
U kan de moeite doen om aan de moderators te vragen uw lap tekst te verwijderen, vermits dit niet de tekst is waar het openingsartikel over gaat.
U heeft hier het verdrag tegen terrorisme gecopieerd, dat in sé niks met de zaak te maken heeft.

Om het U gemakkelijk te maken zal ik stukjes uit de Top van de Raad van Europa kopieren, die U duidelijk zullen maken waarover het wel gaat.

[SIZE="4"]Warsaw Declaration[/SIZE]

We, Heads of State and Government of the Member States of the Council of Europe, gathered in Warsaw on 16-17 May 2005 for our Third Summit, bear witness to unprecedented pan-European unity. Further progress in building a Europe without dividing lines must continue to be based on the common values embodied in the Statute of the Council of Europe: democracy, human rights, the rule of law.
(...)

Each Party shall take such measures as may be necessary to establish its jurisdiction over the offences set forth in this Convention in the case where the alleged offender is present in its territory and it does not extradite him or her to a Party whose jurisdiction is based on a rule of jurisdiction existing equally in the law of the requested Party

(..........)
9. We strongly condemn all forms of intolerance and discrimination, in particular those based on sex, race and religion, including antisemitism and islamophobia. We affirm our determination to further develop, within the Council of Europe, rules and effective machinery to prevent and eradicate them. We will also further implement equal opportunity policies in our member states and we will step up our efforts to achieve real equality between women and men in all spheres of our societies. We are committed to eradicating violence against women and children, including domestic violence.

(....)
We entrust our colleague, Jean-Claude Juncker, to prepare, in his personal capacity, a report on the relationship between the Council of Europe and the European Union, on the basis of the decisions taken at the Summit and taking into account the importance of the human dimension of European construction.
