Heres some more obammy manouvering behind the scenes. A preparatory committee at the United Nations concluded a series of meetings this week on the Arms Trade Treaty (ATT). This is the third and final round of meetings on the ATT, as the UN gears up for final negotiations in 2012. The most comprehensive treaty of its kind, the ATT would regulate weapons trade throughout the world on everything from battleships to bullets. Though negotiations will continue for another year, some provisions are certain to be contained in the final draft. The ATT will, at the very least, require gun owner registration and microstamping of ammunition. And it will define manufacturing so broadly that any gun owner who adds so much as a scope or changes a stock on a firearm would be required to obtain a manufacturing license. It would also likely include a ban on many semi-automatic firearms (i.e., the Clinton gun ban) and demand the mandatory destruction of surplus ammo and confiscated firearms. Negotiators, from abroad and within the Obama administration, view arms control as protecting human rights, rather than seeing civilian disarmament for what it is -- the favorite tool of despots, dictators and tyrants to maintain power by engaging in mass murder and genocide.
