After multiple assurances that it was a voluntary agreement, the EU has declared that the “UN Migration Pact legally binding after all,” but through the back door — the way many such schemes are implemented. Loopholes are manipulated while the public is given a false sense of security. This particular back door may not even be legal, but the EU is trying to make appear to be.

As it it was not enough that the European public is being betrayed, the International Organization for Migration chief, Antonio Vitorino, demanded an end to ‘Negative Narratives’ on Mass Migration. That should raise alarm, but won’t.

The Pact — officially named the “Global Compact for Safe, Orderly and Regular Migration” — indicates that “No country can address the challenges and opportunities of this global phenomenon on its own.” This is a hint of the plan for the imposition of this pact upon sovereign nations. It is a declaration that sovereign states are unable to address issues pertaining to their own borders and migration on their own, and must rely on the globalist United Nations to help them. The UN, meanwhile, is so trustworthy that last week it gave Iran a seat on the “U.N. women’s rights committee which judges complaints alleging violations of women’s rights.”

Suspicions about the Migration Pact have not been “conspiracies” of the “alt-right,” as the establishment media claims. The Pact came this far as a result of the willful blindness and utopian fantasies of the Left.

In Canada, in a similar case, the “alt-right” was blamed for raising the alarm against the “anti-Islamophobia” motion M-103, with the Leftist media insisting that it was not a legal document. As usual, the media was short-sighted, with few exceptions. M-103 ended up being incorporated into a massive $23,000,000 anti-discrimination plan called “Taking Action Against Systemic Racism and Religious Discrimination Which Includes Islamophobia.” Part of this “action” includes “monitoring citizens for compliance,” training law enforcement to investigate online and offline “hate speech,” and other such “action” that threatens democracy and free speech. “Action” also included payouts to groups including CAIR-CAN (renamed the National Council of Canadian Muslims) and IRFAN (a group stripped of funding by the previous Conservative Government for connections to jihad terror) for their input into the 23-million-dollar “action” plan.

The precise status of the UN Migration Pact is still being debated, but one thing is clear, aside from strenuous efforts to maximize its powers through the back door. The UN and Brussels are trying to force the Pact upon sovereign states, even those that rejected it, and maximize its impact. The European Commission’s Legal Service is holding to the view “that the UN compact should have legally binding consequences for every EU member state including those which withdrew from the agreement.”

Austrian EU Commissioner Johannes Hahn insists that “that “UN General Assembly resolutions are not legally binding and you can not declare parts of them binding.” At this point, every free nation should vehemently oppose the UN Migration Pact, which the EU and UN are trying to force upon their citizens, who are the ones who will pay a heavy price economically and in regard to their security.
