    EU legitimises Dictatorship

    I post this for the interest of others. It is about the EU brining back the death penalty.

    The Lisbon Treaty “Legalizes” EU-Dictatorship with Death Penalty Euro-med

    Here's the real EU policy written by people who don't think that Barack Obama is a shape shifting reptilian from Alpha Draconis.

    As you can see the EU is 100% against the death penalty

    I saw this story a while ago. Upon looking into it, it seems tremendouly obfuscated. From what I understood, the clause supposedly allowing the use of capital punishment is a commentry of sorts, and non-legally binding in the treaty in question. However, given the way the EU tends to 'interpret' its vague wordings, it's slightly worrying nevertheless.
