The UN ATT Conference was less a failure a victory by the firearms industry and the National Rifle Association for that matter, than it was the result of abortive advocacy lead by the fanatical UK-based ‘Control Arms’…
The fact of the matter is that if UNSC embargoes worked in practice, there would be no need for an ATT, as it is would amount to nothing more than another layer of arms embargoes…
So congratulations, once again, are in order — as your hard work paid off handsomely. Over 50 US Senators ultimately signed a letter opposing this abomination.
The rumors vary, but some have wrongly claimed that the U.S. has secretly adopted a U.N. Arms Trade Treaty, subjecting Americans to the schemes of U.N. gun controllers.

The Review Conference 2012 of the UN’s Programme of Action to Prevent, Combat, and Eradicate the Illicit Trade in Small Arms and Light Weapons in all its aspects, is in full swing.
In fact, I’m afraid this nightmare has just begun. Hillary’s global gun grab is proving harder to kill than Freddy Krueger.
With the knowledge that total civilian disarmament–and government monopoly of force–is the ultimate goal, it is imperative that we watch RevCon 2012 with extreme scrutiny and skepticism.
When someone lies to you, you’d better beware. Lies are told to manipulate people into doing things or supporting laws or philosophies they wouldn’t ordinarily do if they knew the facts.

We could still see changes in the coming days. Notable is the removal of Munitions & Ammunition, more analysis to follow, as we wanted to get the document out for expanded distribution.
We have mined documents that show that privately owned small arms and ammunition clearly looks to be included in the ATT agreement.
Could the U.N. Arms Trade Treaty, now being discussed in New York City with an expected wrap-up date on July 27, 2012, really infringe the Second Amendment? Maybe so.
Despite what you might hear on the nightly news, this treaty has NOTHING to do with disarming rogue governments and drug cartels. The ATT is about undermining gun rights in the United States.

With the terrorist-exporting state of Iran in a leadership role, the committee has been plowing down obstacles and rapidly moving toward an agreement.

At first, it looks like Hillary and her U.N. goons are pretty much correct. ” … all Treaties made … shall be the supreme Law of the Land …”
The Treaty will create a U.N.-based Implementation Support Unit which will become an engine of gun control around the world.
