Remove ICLEI- Restore the Republic

November 24, 2010 By Tom Deweese for Canada Free Press August 24, 2009 Many Americans ask how dangerous international policies can suddenly turn up in state and local government, all seemingly uniform to those in communities across the nation and around the globe. The answermeet ICLEI, a non-profit, private foundation, dedicated to helping your mayor implement all of his promises. Originally known as the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI), today the group simply calls itself ICLEILocal Governments for Sustainability. In 1992, ICLEI was one of the groups instrumental in creating Agenda 21. The groups mission is to push local communities to regulate the environmentand its having tremendous success. I have included a list of 544 American cities in which ICLEI is being paid with tax dollars from city councils to implement and enforce Sustainable Development. ICLEI is there to assure that the mayors keep their promises and meet their goals. Climate change, of course, is the ICLEI mantra. Heres just some of the programs ICLEI provides cities and towns, in order to spread their own particular political agenda in the name of community services and environmental protection, they include: Software programs to help set the goals for community developmentwhich leads to

Agenda 21 ICLEI opposed at meetings across the country

taking control of your private property; Access to a network of Green experts, newsletters, conferences and workshopsto assure the indoctrination of city employees is complete; Toolkits, online resources, case studies, fact sheets, policy and practice manuals, and blueprints used by other communitiesso you know you are not alone; Training workshops for staff and elected officials on how to develop and implement the programswanna bet they never seem to mention that thousands of scientists around the world now say man-made global warming is a myth and none of these programs are necessary? Probably doesnt make it into the workshop; And, of course, theres Notification of relevant grant opportunitiesthis is the important onemoneywith severe strings attached. ICLEI recommends that the community hire a full time sustainability manager, who, even in small towns, can devote 100% of his time to assure that every nook and corner of the government is on message and under control. As I said, its not about protecting the environment; its about reinventing government with a specific political agenda. ICLEI and others are dedicated to controlling your locally elected public officials to quietly implement an all encompassing tyranny over every community in the nation. Like a disease, ICLEI (or others of its kind) is entrenched in most American cities, dictating policy to your locally elected officials, controlling policy and making sure they do not listen to your protests. To truly see tyranny in action, one only needs to go to a city council meeting and attempt to ask questions or discuss a sustainable development program. Most who have tried it have been literally physically removed from the chamber. Its time to remove ICLEI. Look at this list of communities where they currently hide behind the curtainand take action to remove them. Now, before your community is run like a soviet, where there is no debate, no regard for constitutionally-guaranteed rights, no property rights, no free markets, no alternative thought. Through ICLEI there is only top-down controljust like a soviet. Remove ICLEI - Restore the Republic! ICLEI Cities Across the Country

Agenda 21 ICLEI opposed at meetings across the country

Action to Take: ICLEI is one of the most dangerous forces in the nation, particularly because so few people know if their existence. But your mayor and city council know. They are in regular meetings with them, They get memos on policy. They are told what to support and who to silence. What they fear most is exposure. Now, we can turn the tables on ICLEI by shining a bright spot light on their activities in your community. First, go to a city council meeting and listen to the discussion. Are they talking about land use, water control, development control? Are they using the language I have described in this issue? If so, Sustainable Development is ruling your community. Second, begin to ask questions. You may have to do it after the meeting, but if you can, ask during Ask where these policies they are discussing come from. Ask if your community is now paying dues to a group called the International Council for Local Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). Once you have determined that ICLEI is truly in your community, they the battle can begin. Remember, the list of ICLEI cities on this page came directly from the ICLEI web pageso you already know they are there. Third, do not begin to discuss UN policies. Instead, keep your discussion on a local level, as in how such policies may impact local citizens. Fourth, I have enclosed a petition.Make copies of this petition, which calls on your city council to stop paying dues to ICLEI and to remove them from policy making in your community. Pass out your copies and get as many citizens as possible to sign it. Make copies of this issue of The DeWeese Report to educate your neighbors on the dangers of Sustainable Development. Deliver the singed petitions to City Council and cause a firestorm of protest if they ignore you. And do not stop until ICLEI and Sustainable Development are removed from your community.
