#Brexit to #Amexit: Keep the Momentum Going!

The British have taken the unprecedented step of voting to leave the EU, overcoming threats and fears. There is no reason why America can’t also exit globalist enterprises such as the United Nations ...
Alex Newman

It was more than just a referendum to defy the politicians and bureaucrats. The historic June 23 British “Brexit” vote to exit the European Union was a massive blow to globalism and the globalist establishment, perhaps unprecedented in contemporary history — the vote heard ’round the world, so to speak. The vote was not simply a repudiation of the increasingly totalitarian EU, but of the entire internationalist agenda to crush national sovereignty and replace it with unaccountable transnational governance beyond the reach of citizens. And the reverberations have inspired people around the world, especially in the United States and across Europe, to fight for their national independence and their right to self-government.

Now, Europeans and Americans are hoping to seize on the momentum created by Brexit to push various other “exits,” including an “Amexit” from the United Nations and national secession from the EU superstate by various formerly independent peoples of Europe. Some analysts are even forecasting a domino effect: Frexit, Swexit, Nexit, Auxit, Grexit, and so on. In this article, we will take a look primarily and specifically at the push for an #Amexit from the UN: Who is pushing it? Is it a good idea? If so, why? What can Americans do to make it happen? In fact, before the phrases “Brexit” and “Amexit” even became known, an Amexit bill was introduced in Congress to “end membership of the United States in the United Nations.” Known as the American Sovereignty Restoration Act, or H.R. 1205, the bill would also evict the UN from U.S. soil. Now it just needs to be passed.

The primary reason for withdrawing from the UN is the same as the chief reason for the Brexit: restoring national sovereignty. The EU now rules the formerly independent peoples of Europe practically without restraint. The UN has not gotten quite that bad yet, of course. But if the peoples of the world — and especially the American people — do not stop it, that is exactly where the agenda is going. In our July 4 cover story, we showed how the UN was increasingly threatening U.S. independence with its demands for global “interdependence” and “governance.” In fact, in many ways, the UN is already behaving as if it were a global government — it has its own police, “peace” armies, courts, education plans, health schemes, and more.
