Christian diplomat criticises UK
and US
Theological news

As the US and British military assault on Fallujah
escalates, a former top foreign policy adviser to PM Tony Blair has voiced
serious concerns about the continuing Iraq conflict. He has also declared
that environmental disaster is a greater global threat than terrorism. Sir Stephen Wall, who is now principal adviser to
Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor, Roman Catholic Archbishop of
Westminster,
said yesterday that ‘it should not have been impossible to
reach a common European view on Iraq before Britain became committed to an
unstoppable course of action on the part of the United States.’
Speaking at the prestigious Royal Institute for International Affairs in Chatham
House, London, Sir Stephen went on: ‘I believe that, in Britain, we allowed our
judgement of the dire consequences of inaction to override our judgement of
the even more dire consequences of parting from the
rule of law.’
He added: ‘We have to be firm in our adherence to that rule of law, even if
it sometimes means parting company with the United States and adhering to the
United Nations as the only defence against the rule of might that we have.’
What about
the Law of God? He says:
1Cr 13:3
And though I bestow all my goods to feed
the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not charity,
it profiteth me nothing.
1Cr 13:13
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three;
but the greatest of these is charity.
Nightmare stories kept coming out of Iraq for decades.
It was no secret.
Mat 25:42 I was an hungred, and ye gave me
no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
Mat 25:43 I was a stranger, and ye took me
not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me
not.
Mat 25:44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when
saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in
prison, and did not minister unto thee?
Mat 25:45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say
unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the
least of these, ye did it not to me.
Mat 25:41 Then shall he say unto them on the left hand,
Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and
his angels.
Hbr 13:21
Make you perfect in every good work to do his will, working in you that
which is well pleasing in his sight, through Jesus Christ; to whom be glory
for ever and ever. Amen.
2Th 1:12
That the name of our Lord Jesus Christ may be glorified in you, and ye in
him, according to the grace of our God and the Lord Jesus Christ.
Mat 5:6 Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after
righteousness: for they shall be filled.
Mat 5:7
Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.
Tts 2:15
These things speak, and exhort, and rebuke with all authority.
[with the Scriptures] Let no man
despise thee.
Didn't those bishops take on the
responsibility of defending the Son of God when they perched themselves upon
His Holy Reputation?
Psa 119:9
Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by
taking heed thereto according to thy Word.
The BBC’s chief political correspondent, Andrew Marr, last night described Sir
Stephen’s intervention as ‘very significant indeed’.
Before taking up
his post with the Roman Catholic Church in England and Wales Sir Stephen Wall
was UK Permanent Representative to the European Union. He was also head of
European Secretariat in the Cabinet Office.
His address, ‘The UK, the EU and the United States: Bridge, or just Troubled
Water’, signals further fall-out among senior advisers with the Blair
government’s Iraq policy. Last April the current head of legal studies at
Chatham House, Elizabeth Wilmshurst, resigned her position as Deputy Legal
Adviser at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office because she disputed the
legality of the war.

And what
about international - 'rule of law' - ??? [This is the business of those
'bishops' - because they made it their business - and they have shoved it aside]
In his lecture Sir Stephen highlighted the serious rift between Europe and the
US on social as well as political matters. ‘[The] distaste for George Bush’s
America … is about a sense that we have less in common
in our view of society and social justice now, than in the past.
And it is also about differing views on the rule of
law.’
Widening his critique, he declared: ‘The fact that the United States is a great
democracy to whom we owe our continued survival as free nations is not, I
believe, sufficient reason to give them the benefit of the doubt when they
unilaterally withdraw from the Test Ban Treaty, or deny the jurisdiction of
the international terrorism court, [who ever said that
'Rome Mandates' [written by catholic lawyers] should have jurisdiction over the
world? God did. That is why He says: Ye adulterers and
adulteresses, know ye not that the friendship of the world is enmity with God?
whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.

the Kyoto treaty which is a first tentative step towards tackling a threat to
life on our planet much greater than that posed by terrorism.’

Those who profess to be the leaders of the Christians
