A friendly, open and urgent letter to Professor Lawrence Oglethorpe Gostin...

SUBJECT:

PLEASE RESIGN YOUR POSITION ON THE INTERNATIONAL HEALTH REGULATIONS REVIEW COMMITTEE

Tuesday, November 29, 2022

Dear Professor Gostin,

This message is written in good faith and with the best of intentions.

Sometimes good people get spun around, lose their balance and find themselves headed in the wrong direction.

I think you have lost your way, and I would like to ensure that you are made aware of a few things, so that you can CHOOSE to get back on track.

Let me be clear. I am NOT accusing you of committing any crimes. I believe that you have NO ill intent.

However, I do believe that you have been slowly, methodically and gradually enticed into a situation from which you should immediately resign. For your own benefit.

You are currently serving on the International Health Regulations Review Committee (IHRRC), which reports confidentially (privately/secretly) to the Director General of the World Health Organization.

In that position, you have previously participated in secret negotiations regarding proposed amendments to the International Health Regulations that could result in the loss of the personal freedoms of We the People, and could also result in the loss of national sovereignty of the United States.

There is no way for us to know, because the negotiations are being conducted in secret.

As a member of the IHRRC you are scheduled to meet this week (November 28 to December 2, 2022) to continue the negotiations regarding personal freedoms and national sovereignty. Additional meetings are scheduled for the near future.

I am hereby raising very serious concerns that the IHRRC has usurped the authority of the World Health Assembly and its Working Group for amendments to the International Health Regulations (WGIHR). The IHRRC appears to be acting as a private cabal designed to override the desires of the member nations in order to do the bidding of the Director General of the World Health Organization, Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus.

Again, there is no way for us to know, because the negotiations are being conducted in secret.

I suspect that you disagree with the above statements. That is your right. But you are wrong. And, more importantly, you are in the wrong.

Please do not make the additional mistake of attempting to sugar-coat your participation in the IHRRC.

Do you really want to tarnish an illustrious career by participating in the secret charade of the IHRRC?

I strongly suggest that you tender your resignation from the IHRRC immediately and publicly reveal the proposed amendments from multiple nations that have been the subject of the secret negotiations in which you have been participating.

Forgiveness will be yours if you act swiftly, publicly, and honestly.

I have been unable to find any evidence that you have been legally authorized to negotiate international agreements on behalf of We the People of the United States. I have been unable to find the name “Lawrence Oglethorpe Gostin” listed in a document similar to the one below…

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2008/04/08/E8-7344/negotiation-conclusion-and-termination-of-treaties-and-other-international-agreements

https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/search?conditions%5Bterm%5D=gostin

Secretary of State Antony Blinken has clearly named Pamela Hamamoto to be the authorized person to oversee negotiations regarding the Pandemic Accords. There has been no indication whatsoever that she is to also oversee the negotiations in which you are currently participating.

https://www.hhs.gov/about/news/2022/10/11/joint-statement-by-secretary-of-state-antony-j-blinken-secretary-of-health-and-human-services-xavier-becerra.html

Professor Gostin, can you produce an official Delegation of Authority letter giving you legal authority to negotiate international agreements on behalf of the United States? If you have such a letter, then please present it publicly.

I can already hear your response claiming that you are not “negotiating,” you are just acting in your capacity as a subject matter expert and as an advisor to the WHO.

Hogwash.

Please do not attempt to cover-up what is going on in secret at the meetings of the International Health Regulations Review Committee.

As a highly esteemed professor of law, I expect you to be aware of the Foreign Affairs Manual and the legal requirements regarding the negotiations of international treaties. Please see the links and excerpts included below.

Please stop participating in this mockery of democracy.

I implore you to take immediate action to protect your reputation.

Please resign your position as a member of the International Health Regulations Review Committee and publicly reveal the details of the proposals to amend the International Health Regulations that are being negotiated in secret by the IHRRC.

We, the people of the world, have a right to know what the World Health Organization has been doing in secret.

Sincerely,

James Roguski

https://www.state.gov/bureaus-offices/treaty-affairs/

https://www.state.gov/treaty-procedures/

https://fam.state.gov/FAM/11FAM/11FAM0720.html

11 FAM 724.1  Authorization Required to Undertake Negotiations

(CT:POL-44;   05-26-2006)

Negotiations of treaties, or other “significant” international agreements, or for their extension or revision, are not to be undertaken, nor any exploratory discussions undertaken with representatives of another government or international organization, until authorized in writing by the Secretary or an officer specifically authorized by the Secretary for that purpose.

11 FAM 724.2  Scope of Authorization

(CT:POL-44;   05-26-2006)

Approval of a request for authorization to negotiate a treaty or other international agreement does not constitute advance approval of the text nor authorization to agree upon a date for signature or to sign the treaty or agreement.  Authorization to agree upon a given date for, and to proceed with, signature must be specifically requested in writing, as provided in 11 FAM 724.3.  This applies to treaties and other agreements to be signed abroad as well as those to be signed at Washington.  Special instructions may be required, because of the special circumstances involved, for multilateral conventions or agreements to be signed at international conferences.

11 FAM 724.3  Request for Authorization to Negotiate and/or Sign Action Memorandum

(CT:POL-48;   09-25-2006)

a. A request for authorization to negotiate and/or conclude a treaty or other international agreement takes the form of an action memorandum addressed to the Secretary or other principal to whom such authority has been delegated, as appropriate, and cleared with the Office of the Legal Adviser (L) (including the Assistant Legal Adviser for Treaty Affairs), the Office of the Assistant Secretary for Legislative Affairs, other appropriate bureaus, and any other agency (such as Defense, Commerce, etc.) which has primary responsibility or a substantial interest in the subject matter.

b. The action memorandum may request one of the following:

(1)  Authority to negotiate;

(2)  Authority to conclude; or

(3)  Authority to negotiate and conclude.

The request in each instance states that any substantive changes in the draft text will be cleared with the Office of the Legal Adviser and other specified regional and/or functional bureaus before definitive agreement is reached.  Drafting offices should consult closely with the Office of the Legal Adviser (L) to ensure that all legal requirements are met.

c.  The action memorandum indicates what arrangements have been made and/or are planned as to:  (1) congressional consultation and (2) opportunity for public comment on the treaty or agreement being negotiated, signed, or acceded to.

d. The action memorandum shall indicate whether a proposed treaty or agreement embodies a commitment to furnish funds, goods, or services beyond or in addition to those authorized in an approved budget; and if so, what arrangements are being planned or carried out concerning consultation with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for such commitment.  The Department will not authorize such commitments without confirmation that the relevant budget approved by the President requests or provides funds adequate to fulfill the proposed commitment or that the President has made a determination to seek the required funds.

e. The action memorandum shall indicate whether a proposed treaty or agreement embodies a commitment that could reasonably be expected to require (for its implementation) the issuance of a “significant regulatory action” (as defined in section 3 of Executive Order 12866); and if so, what arrangements are being planned or carried out concerning timely consultation with OMB.  The Department will not authorize such commitments without confirmation that OMB has been consulted in a timely manner concerning the proposed commitment.

f.  Where it appears that there may be issues regarding the public disclosure of the text of an agreement upon its signature or entry into force, the action memorandum shall include an explanation thereof (see 11 FAM 725.2 and 11 FAM 725.3).

g. An action memorandum dealing with an agreement that has a potential for adverse environmental impact should contain a statement indicating whether the agreement will significantly affect the quality of the human environment.

h. The action memorandum is accompanied by:

(1)  The U.S. draft, if available, of any agreement or other instrument intended to be negotiated; or

(2)  The text of any agreement and related exchange of notes, agreed minutes, or other document to be signed (with appropriate clearances, including that of the Assistant Legal Adviser for Treaty Affairs); and

(3)  A memorandum of law prepared in the Office of the Legal Adviser.

i.  These provisions shall apply whether a proposed international agreement is to be concluded in the name of the U.S. Government or in the name of a particular agency of the U.S. Government.  However, in the latter case, the action memorandum may be addressed to the interested Assistant Secretary or Secretaries of State, or their designees in writing, unless such official(s) judge that consultation with the Secretary, Deputy Secretary or an Under Secretary is necessary.  (See 22 CFR 181.4.)

The old system is crumbling, and we must build its replacement quickly.

If you are fed up with the government, hospital, medical, pharmaceutical, media, industrial complex and would like to help build a holistic alternative to the WHO, then feel free to contact me directly anytime.

Write a letter to Congress, the same 388 members of Congress that are being sued for treason, for election fraud? BTW - SCOTUS is scheduled to make a decision about the lawsuit on Jan 6, 2023.
