Premier George Papandreou of Greece crossed the Rubicon on October 18, 2010, when his deranged minister destroyed a distinguished professor and dissident blogger. That's why the Global Tax Revolt declared October 18 as the International Day Against Cybercop Brutality. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/globaltaxrevolt
The Institute for Justice points out that never in modern times has the need for enforcing constitutional limits on government been more urgent. Government at all levels has expanded to threaten our most basic liberties and our very way of life. This explosion of political power violates a constitution, which was carefully crafted to protect us from the rampant and intrusive government we now have.
But a constitution is meaningless if the provisions enshrined in it by the Framers are not enforced. That is the duty of our courts. They must be the bulwarks of liberty envisioned by James Madison, and judges are obliged to prevent the government from exercising powers not authorized by constitution. But rather than the bulwarks they were designed to be, courts have instead shown an increasingly misguided deference to other branches of government.
The Institute for Justice asserts this must change. A principled commitment to judicial engagement is the essential first step toward establishing a rule of law that is faithful to a constitution and its design to secure the blessings of liberty for all citizens by limiting the size and scope of government.
Global Tax Revolt points out the persecution of dissident bloggers is unquestionably a serious attack on freedom of speech, and contrary to Article 2 of Lisbon Treaty, Article 10 of the European Convention of Human Rights, and Article 19 of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights. The Greek government cannot bully the blogosphere without repercussions and blowbacks. The international civil society got a shock and awe from the brutality of the infamous Greek government on October 18, 2010.
