美國已經很明顯採取行動廢除”中華民國流亡政府”武功
(1)逼中華民國流亡政府大量裁軍,廢除其國防力量
(2)中華民國流亡政府駐美軍官被降為文官
(3)花蓮外海與那國島美日駐軍
(4)美國陸戰隊於2011年即將進駐台北內湖 AIT
(5)琉球群島去年就進駐12架 猛禽戰機F-22
(6)台灣已經安裝3座 J Star Control System, 菲律賓安裝1座 J Star Control System, 台海陸海空三軍由美軍透過J Star Control System全面掌控指揮
ROC-in-Exile (中華民國流亡政府) 軍隊可說等於是廢料,馬氏流亡份子只能龜縮著 ,不敢吭一聲。

'終於將美國務院拉上最高法院' ◎ 林志昇, The Liberty Times, 自由廣場, Jul8,2009:
http://tinyurl.com/Lin-v-USA-7-8

: "" 二○○九年七月六日上午十一時(當地時間),美律師肯浦親自將「林志昇等控告美政府案」向美最高法院「遞件」,法院受理,美最高法院對「文書」要求嚴格,首先,規定文字不得超過九千字,規定紙張跟格式,字型與字體都必須符合要求,甚至,律師團須讓「專業」打字公司作業,真是開了眼界,法院一年接受八千五百個案子,其中「提審」一百五十件,這次是台灣人的首次。

本案與律師團共同研究下,一致認為被高院「提審」的可能性非常高,第一:自從一八九八年美西戰爭後,經過一百多年,沒有被美軍事政府佔領,至今還沒有得到「身分」的地區,訴求美政府「欺負」的案例。第二:地方和高等法院,不得以「政治問題」躲避或迴避,其對本土台灣人在「條約下」或「憲法下」之權利,負有「解釋」上的義務。第三:最高法院解釋憲法案子,都有政治上的涉及,而解釋條約也同樣,最高法院的任務是要從法律的角度去審理,不是從政治角度,而且,最高法院有權力解釋總統所簽的協議書,也經常解釋國會通過的法律內涵。第四:美國最高法院曾判決,憲法有關戰爭事務與外交事務,其重點放在總統決策上,但是,有關個人的權利,是由行政與立法及司法三方面去斟酌,而確立憲法下個人基本人權保障,這是司法問題,不是政治問題。第五:本案訴求:地方與高等法院認定「本土台灣人無國籍」,因此,憲法第五修正案,包括美國核發的旅行證件;第八修正案,本土台灣人「不能落為」無國籍,第十四修正案,不能剝奪生命自由和財產,除非有正當法律程序;第一修正案,台灣人民向美國政府陳情的基本權利。

台灣絕對不會是美國的五十一州,本案是要求美國讓本土台灣人(people of Taiwan),依照聯合國憲章第七十三條的「自治self-government」精神,協助成立「台灣平民政府」,而不是讓「台灣關係法」的「台灣人people on Taiwan」繼續以模糊的「台灣當局Taiwan authority」,讓本土台灣人生活在「無國籍」、「無政府」跟「政治煉獄 in political purgatory」中。(作者為「福爾摩莎法理建國會」成員,http://taiwancivilgovernment.ning.com/) ""

' 邀扁作証 法理建國會投震撼彈 '
http://tinyurl.com/A-Bien-Lin-v-USA

: "" (記者林蓮華/羅斯密市報導)「林志昇等控美政府案」,於7月2日呈文美國聯邦最高法院,由於美國最高法院採文書申論作業,因此林志昇等人同時申請「聽証會」,而第一位証人列名邀請前陳水扁總統,無疑在僑界又投下一顆震撼彈。

針對此案進展,2日(週四),南加州、北加州、及日本同步舉行記者會聲援大表支持,希望陳前總統能勇敢地為國、為民、為後代子孫三思,簽下「聽証出席同意書」。

當日,會員及鄉親紛紛慷慨陳詞,希望一旦最高法院受理時,阿扁能挺身而出作証,重新帶領台灣人,衝破美國法官所說地「政治煉獄」的牢籠。

這招是否能為阿扁目前面臨司法不公「解套」? 屆時,真的能來美國作証嗎?「福爾摩沙法理建國會」南加分會會長蔡明法指出:「証人需簽下同意書,但阿扁現在更怕馬政府變本加厲『抄家滅族』、甚至危及自身安全,有所顧忌還在考慮中。但我們大家期待他能慎重地為大局思考,『台灣地位的真相』他比任何人最能感同深受,台灣的未來,也許在法理上而非政治上,經過聽証會,能夠有機會在國際上,被公平的對待。」

他說明此案來龍去脈,林志昇等人控告案,經美國聯邦地方法院2008年3月18日裁定、高等法院2009年4月7日判定,「台灣人無國籍、無被承認的政府,人民生活在『政治煉獄』。」但兩層級法院最後皆以「政治問題」迴避解釋權,但鼓勵依法可上訴。

林志昇等人遂於2009年7月2日上訴最高法院,蔡明法解釋:「之前美國高等法院挑選受理案件的比例是0.003,一千件只挑選3件,幸運地我們通過受理;如今,再到最高法院上訴的案件多是極具爭議性,主旨是讓9位大法官釋憲,受理比例也是0.003-0.005。」

一旦聯邦最高法院受理,未來的審判結果,將成為各級法院援用的判例,具有指標性作用。林志昇等人在上訴書強調,此案件法院有義務從法律角度審理,而非政治角度。

最高法院因應此案的方式,包括駁回、案件發回高等法院,及受理。若是上訴此案能放著一年半載,反而是「好徵兆」,拉得越久,表示最高法院正慎重考慮,台美兩方糾葛的法律問題所代表的意義。

「福爾摩沙法理建國會」秘書長曾輝光認為,自1945年,64年以來,美國的附屬土地歸屬案件,目前沒有最新判例,台灣是二次世界大戰「美日太平洋戰區」軍事管轄遺留下的問題,加上最近伊拉克、波多黎各等情事,此案「可看性夠」,預計法官接受審理機會大增。

但是,這與陳水扁總統有何關係? 原來,最高法院只接受「書面」資料,為文只得精簡扼要,因此,同時申請『聽証會』,將有助於讓其間原委多個機會全面釐清。而陳水扁前總統是2006年訴訟案開始時當時在位總統,對於美國是不是台灣「政治藏鏡人」? 美國幕後影響台灣有多深? 陳前總統最清楚,所以邀請他做第一位証人,未來,也許還會邀請李登輝前總統。

據理力爭,萬一被駁回或發回,與會代表都認為,「輸也是贏、贏也是贏」,所謂” 輸” ,美國必需承認台灣不屬其管轄範圍,屆時議題將重回日本國土,也為此案後續發展,留下伏筆。

不論同意或喜歡與否,歷史的真相只有一個,若有興趣關注細節者,歡迎聯絡蔡明法 ""

' 台灣定位官司 將上訴美最高院 ' 更新日期:2009/07/03 04:09
http://tinyurl.com/Lin-v-USA

: "" 〔記者謝文華/台北報導〕林志昇控美案將於美國時間六日由律師親自遞狀上訴美國最高法院。福爾摩莎法理建國會今天上午十一點,同步於美國、日本召開四場國際記者會。

美國過去已有三十二個成功判例,透過最高法院判決,釐清戰後美國佔領區主權爭議。此案創下首次有台灣人為了爭取主權、人權,控告美國政府,更罕見獲美國聯邦地方法院、高等法院接下審理,一路打到最高法院,深受國際關注。

舊金山記者會由旅美同鄉會成員王榮義、李登輝之友會美西婦女部主委黃惠瑛負責;洛杉磯場次由民進黨美西主委蔡明法召開;大阪及東京記者會,分別由大阪日台交流協會理事長野口一、日本腦科醫師曾根憲昭主持。

原告林志昇說,他要求最高法院聽證會傳訊前總統陳水扁作證其執政八年,美國運作台灣主權事實,經陳家人答覆,陳前總統看過同意書不敢簽,怕全家遭政治追殺。

林志昇認為,舊金山和約並未確立台灣主權歸屬,美國為台灣主要佔領權國,至今擱置台灣主權爭議,導致台灣人人權遭受侵害,美國應儘快扶植台灣平民政府建國。

聯邦地方法院去年三月十八日判定:「台灣人無國籍」;高等法院今年四月七日判定:「台灣人無國籍、無被承認之政府、人民生活在政治煉獄。」法院文書可見網站http://taiwancivilgovernment.ning.com/。

其上訴最高法院理由在於,地方法院和高等法院,不得以「政治問題」躲避或迴避,其對個人在「條約下」或「憲法下」所屬之權利,並負有「解釋」上的義務。

"" Protests greet U.S. minesweepers 美日聯手「防」台?

Ishigaki mayor asked Obama to cancel port visit

By Chiyomi Sumida, Stars and Stripes
Pacific edition, Sunday, April 5, 2009

Denver Applehans/Courtesy of the U.S. Navy
Sailors from the deck department of the USS Patriot, a minesweeper, haul lines Friday to moor the ship to the pier at the Ishigaki port facility. The Patriot and the USS Guardian arrived Friday for a three-day port visit. Their arrival was attended by nearly 100 protestors objecting to the visit.
A goodwill port visit by two U.S. Navy minesweepers at Ishigaki was greeted Friday by a ripple of protesters who blocked the port gate and demanded the vessels leave.
About 100 protesters rallied Friday morning near the pier, preventing about 84 sailors aboard the ships from disembarking and Navy and local officials from entering the dock, said Ishigaki police and port officials.
The island, 465 miles southwest of Okinawa, is home to about 48,000 residents and is a popular tourist destination.
The 7th Fleet minesweepers USS Patriot and USS Guardian, both out of Sasebo Naval Base, Japan, arrived around 8:30 a.m. Friday for a scheduled three-day liberty call, said Lt. Cmdr. Denver Applehans, spokesman for the Amphibious Force Seventh Fleet public affairs.
"They can certainly protest," Applehans said. "We believe in freedom of speech just like the Japanese do."
The sailors are scheduled to participate in a community service project and cultural events, but residents have said the presence of warships makes them nervous.
The U.S. visit sparked a protest campaign launched last month by Ishigaki Mayor Nagateru Ohama, who said the military presence would disrupt the port’s commercial and tourist use. He even wrote to President Barack Obama.
The port call, initially scheduled April 1-3, was pushed back by two days after Ohama objected, saying the space had been scheduled for cruise ships.
Gov. Hirokazu Nakaima said in a statement Friday that the port should be strictly for commercial use unless there is an emergency.
Protesters rallied for nearly nine hours, voluntarily clearing out and dwindling in numbers to around 20 before the gate was opened around 5 p.m., city port officials said. Police reported no injuries and no arrests.
U.S. consul general to Okinawa Kevin Maher was at the port to welcome the ships and help coordinate an exchange between local government and U.S. Navy officials, said consul spokesman Thomas Kreutzer.
"It is absolutely ordinary. We do ship visits all over Japan all the time, so this isn’t anything special," Kreutzer said.

美日聯手「防」台?
◎ 賴怡忠
近日媒體大幅報導美日有意駐軍與那國島,認為這是針對中國軍力擴張,以及回應島上居民的請求。但進一步分析,駐軍與那國島更可能表示美日對台灣未來戰略動向的疑慮,與其說針對中國,不如說是針對台灣!
與那國島的位置在緯度上與花蓮十分接近,天候好時甚至從該島可目視花蓮,其居民常在假日到花蓮購物,也有子女來花蓮唸書,可說是距離台灣最近的日本領土。因與那國被花蓮屏障,既不面對中國,與菲律賓更有相當距離,但卻要加強軍力,理由只有兩種可能。
第一,是美日認為台海出現衝突的機會非常高,開戰後中國進出台灣東岸的可能性很大,因此需要在花蓮東側的與那國強化部署。這意味馬政府有關兩岸緊張降低,台海情勢已穩的主張,美日並不買帳,所以才在花蓮外海積極佈兵以備萬一。
第二,是美日認為馬政府的台灣出現根本的戰略轉向,美日必須對未來與中國發生衝突時台灣可能和中國站同邊,先預作準備。事實上,從去年馬政府表示在釣魚台議題考慮發動對日戰爭,並有意縱容國民黨「聯中制日」的呼聲,國安會更主張放棄制空與制海的消極防禦,以及最近刻意抵制日本代表的作為等,不僅日本懷疑馬政府的戰略動向,美國戰略圈也開始質疑台灣的芬蘭化。在這個思考下,「美日同盟」無法將台灣視為盟友。既然台灣可能會與對手合作,花蓮曾扮演的屏障作用消失,與那國不僅成為衝突前線,更須用以監視台灣作為。
不論美日駐軍與那國島,是基於擔心台灣還是要監視台灣,都與馬政府的宣傳不符。年底日本將公布防衛政策大綱,明年更是美日同盟五十週年,屆時美日意圖將更明朗。但從美國P3-C反潛精密偵測儀器在台組裝承諾跳票一事可知,台北已成為戰略不確定因子。在馬政府親中遠美反日政策的操作下,台灣從美日合作的朋友,變為要防禦的對象,與那國的美日佈兵似預告改變的第一步! (作者為台灣智庫執行委員)

[Tsai 09.7.1=3 #1] Ron, thank you for classifying me as a Tawanese aboriginal. Lately I have been back into our "old home" in the USA, 4th or 5th: 1st hometown Hsinbu, 2nd city nearby Hsinju, 3rd 1st Taipei Two-city St., 4th Fremont, CA, USA or 5th, 5th 2nd Taipei Neihu (Inner Lake district of Taipei). My small family used to live here with my parents. Then dad gone, so did sister-in-law in LA. So mom moved to LA . Lately, we are preparing for our dad's centennial art exhibition in Taijung (Taiwan Center city). So we gathered at this Fremont home, brother went back to Neihu home first, leaving old mom here, I started to stay here day and night, getting this better computer and Internet connection.

I still don't know what blog exactly is, but I have been using it as I don't have Ron's brain. Day after day I put my memory into my blog, helping me to respond to emails and so on. The latest input is about our old character, Representative Ron Paul from Texas, who is up seriously over Fed, without being in the minority or the only one as usual. It looks like there is a limitedless space in a blog. In comparison to very short Twitter or NetFace? Yes, there is Obama, and there is still Paul, how strange can we get! This is not cross inputting, but please refer to Conflict forum.

So I have time to compile important documents for brother to take to Taiwan first, as a list, but becoming a rather detailed dad's and family's biological chronology, including historical items on Taiwanese non-government local self-rule roots, and Taiwanese peoples dna hereditary oceanic roots. For example, from the beginning of my chronology:

山地有9族,、顯示平埔族在4–7000年前上岸,也成9族 《血統源流與國家定位》:沈建德,2001、2、28,18–21頁。
9 tribes in the mountains, and archeology shows Pingpu peoples came to Taiwan, 4 to 7000 years ago, and also evolved into 9 tribes: "Blood Origins & National Identiry", by Shen, Chien-teh, Feb 28, 2001, p.18-21.

Manchus ruled Taiwan to suppress anti-Ching Ming sentiments, had soldiers from the mainland for 3 years only. In the countryside, it was Baojia rule, substantially by the rich. In Hsinbu Hakka caslte-like houses protected against bandits: H T Ethnography, p. 597-8.

1826-1933, 道光6-昭和8: 祖先住在新埔故鄉107年.富者蓄兵,三代景熙又設有銃櫃(軍火庫),皆能自保.新埔山水險惡,土地肥沃,乃成各地閩粵械斗敗退客家人避風港(誌:597-9).閩粵漳泉之鬥,全台血戰,例如1806-1859(誌:48-50),然新埔從未發生(誌:594.滿清治台灣212年(1683-1895).奏摺偽官員与難民相率選籍,近有其半.年年返回,1688僅有數千人居住(血:33).而山地有九族,考古顯示平埔族4-7千年前登陸,也成九族(血:18-21), 荷蘭時(1624-62)各為20萬與30萬人(血﹕22-7), 滿清時(1683-1893)各增加到97萬與133萬人.清廷常禁漢人來臺,又強迫漢化﹐廣設社學教閩客語﹐ 1712-1872平埔已信媽祖﹐乾隆23強迫賜漢姓﹐ 一般族譜可靠性低(台灣人的原住民血統非常高(血:28-45)

1826-1933: Ancestors lived in Hsinbu for 107 years. The riches kept private soldiers. The 3rd generation Jing-hsi also kept a arm warehouse. With mountains and rivers and rich soils, Hsinbu had become the last refugee place of the many northern Hakka Taiwanese, escaping from ethnic arm conlicts: Ethnography, p.597-9. ... There had never been such arm conflicts in Hsinbu, p.594.

Manchu ruled Taiwan for 212 years, 1683-1895. Soon after that rule began, the ethnic Chinese went back to the mainland year after year, and in 1688, only thousands left in Taiwan: Origins, p.33. ... ... And Pingpu and Mountain peoples had increased to 970,000 and 1330,000. Ching had prohibited the Chinese to come to Taiwan often, and at the same time set up classes to teach the aboriginals to speak the Chinese dialects of Hoklo and Hakkas, taking over Chinese surnames, began to worship occean goddess of the mainland, Matzu. So the Taiwanse blood is highly aboriginal: Origins, p.28-45.

""Dear All:

How do you think about this article??? Something that we do not know is behind us and controls the Formosan affairs???

Who knows more details????

Bank for International Settlements (Financial Stability Board in Basel, Switzerland)

http://www.opednews.com/articles/1/BIG-BROTHER-IN-BASEL-DID-by-Ellen-Brown-090623-171.html

The article in the link provides more evidence that Bilderberg International (Bank of International Settlements/Financial Stability Fund) is behind ROC and TI movement. Their HQ is in Switzerland (see the picture). This may explain why Switzerland court supported ROC’s claim over the sovereignty of Taiwan last year. They are behind TI and self-determination under ROC, knowing that it is not the real government and they can control it from behind the scene without legal consequences. They are watching and oppose Lin’s group, but may change their position if the lawsuit moves forward. "View from Taiwan " may be their website.

A more serious problem is Bilderberg-USA wants to control USA ’s and all other major countries’ money supply through Obama’s economy team, which proposed to expand the role of its international counterpart, (BIS/FSF), and disguised it as a global financial regulatory agency. BIS/FSF has caused at least a major financial crisis in Japan and other similar crises in Southeast Asia and South America . Even Paul Krugman, the Nobel-prized economist whose theory is the backbone of Obama’s economic recovery plan, called for a total replacement of Obama’s economic team members, which cannot regulate the group they belong to. What’s scary is the Congress’s hearing on the Federal Reserve Bank sounded weak.

On the 3rd page, there is a short review of law about legally binding treaties under the US Constitution and what the president of USA can do based on his sole decisions. I wonder if this can apply to the passport issue.

Feed back or brain storming, Please???

'BIG BROTHER IN BASEL: BIS FINANCIAL STABILITY BOARD UNDERMINES NATIONAL SOVEREIGNTY' Ellen Brown, OpEdNews.com:
http://tinyurl.com/BIS-Overlords

: "" Buried on page 83 of the 89-page Report on Financial Regulatory Reform issued by the U.S. Administration on June 17 is a recommendation that the new Financial Stability Board strengthen and institutionalize its mandate to promote global financial stability. Financial stability is a worthy goal, but the devil is in the details. The new global Big Brother is based in the Bank for International Settlements, a controversial institution that raises red flags among the wary . . . .
... ...
... " more disturbing is the description by Dr. Carroll Quigley of the pivotal role assigned to the BIS in consolidating financial power into a few private hands. Professor Quigley, who was Bill Clinton’s mentor at Georgetown University, claimed to be an insider and evidently knew his subject. He wrote in Tragedy and Hope (1966):

“[T]he powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent private meetings and conferences. The apex of the system was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world’s central banks which were themselves private corporations.”

That helps explain the alarm bells that went off among BIS-watchers when the Bank was linked to the new Financial Stability Board (FSB) President Obama signed onto in April. When the G20 leaders met in London on April 2, 2009, they agreed to expand the powers of the old Financial Stability Forum (FSF) into this new Board. The FSF was set up in 1999 to serve in a merely advisory capacity by the G7 (a group of finance ministers formed from the seven major industrialized nations). The chair of the FSF was the General Manager of the BIS. The new FSB has been expanded to include all G20 members (19 nations plus the EU). The G20, formally called the “Group of Twenty Finance Ministers and Central Bank Governors,” was, like the G7, originally set up as a forum merely for cooperation and consultation on matters pertaining to the international financial system. But its new Financial Stability Board has real teeth, imposing “obligations” and “commitments” on its members. "

Dear all:

由李丁園這篇文章可以窺見, 在臺灣的高級中國人階層過去60年是多麼地岐視及糟踏臺灣人. 其他階層再怎樣一輩子努力工作, 待遇都會不如一個高級中國人中的王八蛋, 例如劉兆玄. 可是只要臺灣人(包括新住民之中不認同中國者)稍有異議, 他們就會指責你 “撕裂族群, 挑撥是非”…

陳水扁被無限期羈押及葉盛茂被判刑10年的例子, 讓我們認清了在臺灣的高級中國人其實是比中共更殘酷的畜牲. 就因為如此, 他們才會被其他的中國人趕出境. 臺灣人要認清高級中國人絕對非我族類, 要有革命的準備. 我們要效仿南非的種族革命, 詳細條列這些高級中國人的名單, 澈底消滅他們!

Correcting common misstatements of the lawsuit
(Ref: Opinion letter by the Court of Appeals dated April 7th, 2009)

From: R P


美國上訴華府巡迴法院裁定了﹕The US Court of Appeals for the DC Circuit in Lin v USA decided:


1。美國美麗島依照舊金山和平條約已由日本割讓於美國。

The United States Territory of American Formosa was ceded by Japan to the USA in the SFPT (what the Court says, perhaps the Petitioners are correct and a careful parsing of the treaty would show....).


2。所謂未來美國美麗島地區或美國法律術語”台灣“之處置尚未決定﹐非台灣現狀

未決定﹐現狀為以上第一點所稱為美國擁有之現狀法理主權 。

The meaning of the expression that there is an undetermined status refers to the future tense in a predatory, hortatory, or intentional mode, as to "Taiwan", and does not mean the de jure status quo in the present tense is in any way undetermined at all, the first numbered sentence above states the present de jure status quo of Formosa within the sovereignty of the USA.


3。日本於條約明定割讓給美國﹐並非未明定割讓何國﹐未明定之為將來所稱“台灣”

行使自治時之未來走向處置﹐尚未定而已。

Japan clearly declares cession to the US , and there is no ambiguity in this respect, the only undetermined matter is where " Taiwan " will head in a future disposition according to principles of self-determination, in the future which is obviously as yet undetermined.


4。主權沒有模糊﹐卻主權無論何地﹐沒有無主任歸屬之狀態。

Sovereignty is never ambiguous, and there is no land without sovereign title, and sovereignty is always determinable and ascertainable.


5。美麗島是美國所屬(領)土﹐其人民需要效忠美國﹐其所設美國軍事政府卻所稱

“台灣”或“中華民國”或”中華民國 (台灣) “行使美國有效管轄統治行為時﹐需要遵守美國憲法於尚未合併為美國憲法第14條修正案或美國移民與海關相關法則所

稱“境內”之前的相關規定包括不得由檢察官二度控告刑事訴訟(一審審判無罪﹐不

得由檢察官提出上訴二審之)等違反我國憲法事項行為。


Formosa is territory appertaining to the US, the people of which owe their allegiance to the US, and the US military government thereon which is called by the nomenclature of "Taiwan" or the "Republic of China" or the "Republic of China(Taiwan)" is the name by which the US governs Formosa, and in such capacity, when so governing, must abide by the applicable US Constitutional fundamental provisions for unincorporated territories prior to applicability of the 14th amendment for territory within the United States or the several states whereof or within the customs or immigrations statutory definitions of the being within the US for those purposes, such as forbidding prosecutors on Taiwan from engaging in appeals which constitute double jeopardy in criminal cases after an acquittal in the first trial or other unconstitutional acts.


6。美國政府所屬領土之如何統治係美國國會可決定之﹐國會尚未行使憲法權力時﹐則以美國總統為統帥由其任命之方式統治之﹐但也需要遵守美國憲法相關規定等義務。

The territory of the US is governed ultimately at the discretion of the Congress, but until such times as the Congress may act, the President as Commander in Chief may exercise all necessary military government authorities, as may be otherwise fully in conformity with the US Constitution.


7。中華民國不代理美國或為美國統治﹐中華民國本就是美國統治美國美麗島之名稱而已。

The "Republic of China" does not represent the US nor serve as a governing agent for the US , the "Republic of China" is merely the name by which the United States of America governs the United States Territory of American Formosa.

'Why Do They Just Giggle?' Butler Shaffer, author of "Life Is Destroying the Planet!"

: "" ... ...
In more recent discussions of the destructive nature of governmental regulation of the marketplace, or the evil nature of the war system, or of efforts by statists to bring virtually all forms of human activity under political control in order to "save the planet," I am greeted with the same snickering."" ...

The answer, I suspect, is to be found in our conditioned practice of identifying our sense of being with institutions. (I dealt with this topic in my first book, Calculated Chaos: Institutional Threats to Peace and Human Survival.) ... ... we train ourselves to look for meaning in our lives not within ourselves, but in external organized systems that have a vested interest in having us elevate their purposes above our own. It is this practice that is the midwife to all forms of collectivism.

An institution is an organization that has become an end in itself, a condition that can arise only through our thinking; only by regarding the collective as of greater significance than ourselves. We do this through learning to identify ourselves through what Fritz Perls called "ego boundaries," which may embrace our nationality, race, gender, ideology, or other belief systems. By so identifying our sense of purpose and meaning in these abstractions, we set ourselves up to be dominated by the institutions which, we are told, represent such groupings. Whatever individuality we might otherwise have becomes subservient to – and subsumed by – the institutions that thus become our collective identity.

The principal beneficiary of such thinking has been the nation-state. Through years of careful conditioning – conducted through such agencies as the government schools and the entertainment industry – we have been taught to regard the state not only as the fundamental organizing principle, but the raison d’etre for both human beings and society. We learned to recite our daily catechism of purpose to our lives in the form of a "pledge of allegiance" to a flag that was the omnipresent and dominant symbol of the state in our classroom. (Have you ever dissected the literal meaning of this pledge; that you are vowing to become and remain subservient to state authority?)

The media and the rest of the entertainment industry join forces with the schools to provide us a consistent indoctrination in the centrality of statism. We learn to regard obedience to constituted authority as our greatest virtue; to replace morality with legality as our personal standard of conduct. War films – starring the likes of John Wayne, who managed to keep himself out of World War II – brainwash us to believe that dying for the glory of the state is our glory; the concrete meaning of the U.S. Army’s advertisement to "be all you can be, in the Army."

The sadness as well as the unmitigated evil of such practices are reflected in the faces of World War II military veterans, who are trotted out for every holiday – each of which has been converted into an excuse for more war-celebration and John Wayne flicks – to speak of the sacrifices they and others made. To such men – identifiable with their "U.S.S. Missouri" baseball caps, or their "5th Army" shoulder patches – any suggestion that this war was carefully contrived by political and corporate interests, and that FDR manipulated the attack on Pearl Harbor, is met with rage, and understandably so. Having been conditioned to identify themselves with the state, to see their very sense of being tied up with obedience and service to the state, the slightest hint that political forces had conspired to exploit them does more than question the integrity of the state: more importantly, it creates uncertainties as to one’s own moral stature. ""
... ...
"" On a sadder note, at a time when more soldiers are committing suicide than are dying in battle, it is well to remember that, no matter how thoroughly indoctrinated the belief in the superiority of an abstraction, there remains within each of us a powerful life-force that can never be fully repressed. What Gandhi called Satyagraha – a "Truth-force" or "Soul-force" – remains deep within us as, perhaps, the greatest power at work upon each of us. The state – and the civilization it is helping to bring down – will continue to fight this life-force in every conceivable manner, not simply in the war system, but in efforts to regulate even the most miniscule details of life’s expressions.

When the minds and the spirits of men and women combine to address, with intelligence, what we have done to ourselves – and are doing to our children and grandchildren – we may be able to walk away from our roles as servo-mechanisms to state and corporate power interests, and to discover how to live according to that life-force within each of us. To those unable or unwilling to confront the wickedness implicit in their robotic existences, there will be nothing but unfocused anger and giggling to accompany their trip into the awaiting black-hole.

: """ According to Independent Long Island’s Historian James Alcock (he is also our High Commissioner to Canada), when the British Parliament passed the Statute of Westminster in 1931, which elevated Canada, Australia, New Zealand, South Africa and Ireland from colonies to autonomous dominions within the British Commonwealth (not fully independent because their people were still British Subjects), it also gave them the right to secede from the British Commonwealth. They could just declare their independence and leave! They all had the right, but none chose to exercise it at that time. In fact, they all willingly fought on Britain’s side during World War II.

In 1948, Burma seceded after becoming independent, and Ireland seceded in 1949, just before the creation of the Commonwealth of Nations. So the legal right already present in the Statute of Westminster of 1931, was exercised a bit later on. The London Declaration of 1949, which set up the Commonwealth of Nations, recognised the member countries as fully independent, so they had the right to leave the Commonwealth at any time because they were free and independent nations. They could even leave and return. South Africa, Fiji and Pakistan left and rejoined later.

It is interesting to note that the right to secede from the old British Empire was granted in 1931 to the autonomous parts, a full 18 years before the modern Commonwealth of Nations was created in order to accept a fully independent Indian Republic. ""

建國制憲-台灣人唯一活路

  台灣人至今尚未建國、制憲,台灣人必須建國,制定一部屬於台灣人的台灣國憲法,以台灣國憲法建構台灣國體制,組成台灣國政府,再以台灣國政府,代表台灣人在國際社會,行使台灣國國家主權。這理由非常明顯,因到目前為止,台灣人在中華民國體制下,無論是個人、團體或政府代表,一出海關,就受到蹧蹋、凌辱,猶如無照流動攤販,在國際社會的商場中討生活,到處遭受取締一樣,過著沒有國家主權尊嚴的流浪生活。這就是因為中華民國體制在作怪。

  中華民國本是中國的政權,自1949年10月1日起,已被中國共產黨所建立的中華人民共和國政府推翻消滅了,中華人民共和國的人民也自認中華人民共和國為自己的國家並代表中國。其後,中華民國在聯合國的中國代表權,於1971年10月25日,被中華人民共和國政府取代,而自己則被逐出聯合國。自此,流亡到台灣的中華民國政府,在國際社會上終止代表中國,降格淪落為不是國家的政府,或頂多是一個準國家政府的組織型態。這流亡到台灣的外來中華民國政府,以其外來的中華民國憲法與政府體制,非法佔有台灣又統治台灣人。其公權力的行使,僅及於台灣境內而不及於境外,只能享有內政主權,沒有享有外交主權。因此,中華民國不能算是一個國家,只能算是一個有效運作的政府。

  我們常在鄉村訪問農夫農婦說:「阿伯、阿嬸,恁欲做中國人抑是台灣人?」他們都會異口同聲答:「當然嘛是欲做台灣人」,又問:「那按呢,恁欲做中國的台灣人,抑是中華民國的台灣人?」他們也說要作中華民國的台灣人。再問:「那是按呢!恁欲做中華民國台灣人,抑是台灣國台灣人?」他們會困擾的回答:「甘有台灣國?」我們回答說:「如果有台灣國的話,甘有欲做台灣國的台灣人?」他們會很乾脆的說:「若是有台灣國,當然嘛是欲做台灣國的台灣人。」這是基層台灣人普遍的心聲,不僅如此,我們也多次以同樣方式,與國中、高中、大學生等對話,所得結論也是一樣。台灣人的國家名稱,應該叫台灣國,這是簡單道理的普通常識,為什麼藍綠政黨,都不願傾聽人民的心聲,都懼談、懼怕宣佈建國、制憲?

  我們要繼續推動1951年9月8日,舊金山和約,日本宣佈放棄台灣主權起,台灣主權即歸屬於台灣人,9月8日,就是台灣主權獨立日,每年9月8日要辦升旗典禮,推動各地方升國旗,家家戶戶插國旗的運動,以提升台灣人的國家意識及建國意志。我個人最近赴美國,在東岸駐留約一年的期間,有機會搭公車、火車或在住家附近社區散步時,有很多感觸,但感觸最深的,莫過於飄過眼前的美國星條國旗,每經過一段路程,就飄現那搶眼的圖騰,有時一連幾棟建築物門前,都有國旗掛在直直的旗杆上,剛開始,以為是公務機關掛的旗,仔細看清楚,才知道大部分都是私人住宅及商店掛的國旗,每看在眼裡,想在心裡,為何美國獨立了二百多年,還有那麼多人想掛國旗?而臺灣人四百多年了,卻還無國旗可掛?國旗是國家主權的象徵,國旗插在那裡,國家的尊嚴就在那裡,國民的榮耀,也在那裡,因此,屢屢發生許多國家的國民或士兵,為了護旗甚至犧牲生命的感人故事。但,已經喪失主權國家身份的,所謂「中華民國的國旗」,自1971年10月25日起,就被禁止出現在國際社會,更離譜的是,有時也被禁止在台灣境內出現。讓台灣人在境內、境外都抬不起頭來,活在無旗可護的環境,失去做為台灣人的尊嚴。所以,台灣人要趕快建國制憲,終結中華民國體制,將台灣人國旗插遍國內土地,將台灣人的國旗掛在聯合國大廈門前國旗排桿上,與世界193個國家平等做朋友,共享主權國家尊榮。

  歷史上的1620年冬天,一艘五月花號船,自英國搭載200名不甘受英帝國迫害的英國人,經歷66天,千辛萬苦的橫渡大西洋,從朴茨茅斯登陸時只剩下104人,登陸後一年只剩下53人,他們尋找樂土的冒險精神,以及250萬,從英國移民來美洲,落地生根的美國人,不甘再受英國殖民統治,為爭自由平等,於1776年7月4日宣佈獨立,發動八年的獨立戰爭。在華盛頓、富蘭克林及傑弗遜等奔走領導,犧牲無數生命之下,終能成功建國。但美國獨立之後,因長年政爭,致經濟蕭條,民生困苦,也在華盛頓奔走,調和鼎鼐之下,於1787年9月17日,通過聯邦憲法,才穩定了美國政局,除南北戰爭之外,守護美國二百多年來的自由民主社會,保障美國人富裕經濟的幸福生活。因為一部以民為主的民主憲法,不但是國家安全的守護神,更是人民幸福的平安符。

  反思母國台灣,目前處在霸權凌虐生死存亡關鍵的惡劣環境之下,更須要有像美國那樣,視民如殤,有遠見,膽識、魄力,願將生命奉獻給建國的有力領導團隊。一部分先民,同樣於1624年,橫渡黑水溝,冒著「六死三留一回頭」的生命危險,來台尋找樂土,加上數千、萬年來居住於台灣的多數原住民,400年來,屢遭外來政權佔領殖民統治。至今,母親還在暗地哭泣,猶還衣不蔽體,過著流浪國際街頭乞討的日子,而衪的子民,卻還在爭逐黨派個人私利,搶奪中華民國體制丟出來的骨頭,忘了2300萬台灣人,被迫擠上一隻為4億5千萬中國人設計的中華民國憲法號破船,現在水已進艙,眼看就要沈船,我們得趕快建造一艘,專為2300萬台灣人,量身訂作的台灣國憲法號母艦,來引渡保護2300萬台灣人,台灣人要趕快建國、制訂自己的憲法,搭自己造的船,才能活命。

  民主國家,政黨成立的目的,在追求取得政權以實現政黨的政治理想。可是有時在取得政權之後,淪於爭權奪利,派系鬥爭而忘了政黨的宗旨。台灣納稅人支持了民進黨十二年,終取得政權。不幸,民進黨執政八年,對建國的創黨宗旨搖擺不定,辜負了人民的期待(民進黨自己也說在基層努力不夠),派系競逐權位,終致被人民唾棄,而失去政權。台灣納稅人白白做工二十年,最後是輸家。我們認為建國運動,除了體制內的努力之外,體制外的奮鬥,說不定更能發揮力量,我們認為,建國運動必須超越藍綠、族群,走在政權、政黨或派系個人的利益前面。社運團體,不是任何政黨的附屬品,必須堅持獨立建國的主體性,將訴求推動成為主流民意後,政權或政黨為了選票,自然會將主流民意列入政見或政策落實,以爭取人民的選票。社運團體目前最重要的事,是推動建國,建構以台灣納稅人為最高利益的台灣憲法機制,約制政黨必須在不違背台灣人的共同利益之下,競逐其政黨利益,也只有在台灣國憲法體制下,台灣才有真正的公義社會,公平的選舉。

  何謂政治?在專制獨裁時代,政治是政府管理眾人之事,在自由民主時代,政治是眾人管理政府之事。民主政治是平凡人的政治,是你我每一個納稅人的政治,是一群納稅人付錢供養一群公務人員,來管理政府落實納稅人利益的政治。與其說:「有什麼樣的人民,就有什麼樣的政府。」不如說:「有什麼樣的制度,就有什麼樣的人民與政府。」我們不要與人爭辯,人性是善或是惡,我們應該透過訂定良善制度,來抑惡揚善,使能者善,善者能。提倡三權分立的孟德斯鳩說:「自由並非產生於高尚的公民道德,而是產生於正確的國家體制。」而制度的最高位階是憲法。因此,一部憲法的好壞,決定什麼樣的人民與政府。

  1787年,美國通過一部以服務美國納稅人為主,有效管理美國聯邦政府的憲法後,成為世界國力最強的國家,保護2億多美國人,享受民主而富裕的幸福生活。相對於中華民國憲法,是一部獨裁專制的憲法,當初設計,以服務獨裁政權的統治階層為主,要遂行其奴役4億5千萬中國人的一部憲法,中國黨政府來不及在中國實施,就被中共政權驅逐敗逃來台灣,拿著這一部統治中國人的憲法來統治臺灣人,使國際社會誤認台灣人就是中國人,誤認台灣是中國的一部分,它無力保護台灣人,無法使台灣人安居樂業,更可能使台灣淪陷於中國手中,令台灣人受中國人的統治。

  本土政黨執政時,瞻前顧後沒有把握建國制憲時機,選舉時又說主張制憲會嚇跑選票?敗選後,更說制憲遙遠路。我們不盡要問,那何時才能制憲?何時才要建國?難道要交給下一代?難到還要拖上百年?難到要癡等天上掉下來?有識之士,如有良知,豈不知幾十年來或四百年來,台灣人不能安家立命的最大根源,就是沒有建國,就是欠缺一部為台灣納稅人制定的憲法。

  台灣納稅人要以命運共同體的觀念,共同建設台灣成為一個民有、民治、民享的國度。必須趕緊制定以公義、公平為基礎,現代企業化的管理方式,台灣納稅人主體利益為出發點,能夠確保台灣納稅人生存、自由與追求幸福的權力,來管理政府的一部民主憲法。台灣國憲法至少應具備下列四種功能特色:

消除賄選根源:國會議員選舉,以全國作為一個選區,依比例代表,雙倍提名暨抽籤制的原則選出。透過選舉制度的設計,使候選人不會想買票,選民就無法賣票,賄選自然杜絕。

改善國會亂象:透過特別管理規定,議員要專業問政,迴避私人利益,政黨推派候選人要謹慎;因為議員犯法不但要嚴懲,政黨亦要受連坐處分,遞減其次屆議員分配名額,國會問政品質自然提升,國會亂象自然改善。

提升行政效率:訂定經濟成長率來考核公務人員行政效率,與每年5%公務人員新陳代謝淘汰率。使受供養的公務人員明確知道,做的好,有獎金,加薪水;做不好,無獎金,減薪水;表現差就淘汰免職。迫使公務人員為了自身利益,會自動票投有能力想做事的政黨執政。以台灣人的勤奮,配合政府公務人員的績效,台灣經濟的再起飛自然指日可待。

落實主權在民:透過降低創制及複決權門檻的制定,迫使政黨不敢惡鬥,議員對法案的審查,必須符合民意。降低修憲門檻,使憲法能夠與時代同步,視各時代的主流民意,可隨時進行修憲。

  透過宣佈建國,實踐台灣國憲法,台灣納稅人可以不必,每天憂心國事,心情隨著電視談話性節目起伏,全家老少,可以蹺腳撚鬍鬚,看王建民的棒球賽,或其他益智、育樂節目,或舉家歡喜外出,去遊山玩水,享受制憲果實,真正的當家做主人,過著幸福快樂的生活。

  雖然台灣人要實現一部最進步、最合身的台灣憲法,但以目前國際社會,不承認中華民國體制下的台灣為主權國家的處境之下,我們必須以感動民心與震撼世界的方法,來展現台灣人民要制憲的決心意志,才能受到國際輿論的支持與認同。數百萬台灣人民,一齊走出家門,迎接光明,在台灣環島的1000公里公路上,用心在自己的土地上,一字一字寫出台灣國憲法。活動當天,同步完成「制憲公投」百萬人連署。用勇敢、智慧、和平與團結的行動,向國際社會明確的傳達,制憲的意志與決心,相信民主陣營的國家,一定會豎起大拇指讚嘆的說:「台灣人真了不起,台灣國將會是一個偉大的國家。」

  數百萬台灣人,完成在自己的土地寫憲法及「制憲公投」百萬人連署後,透過此次成功的活動,台灣國民意識的國家認同必將高漲過半,就有信心順利通過住民自決建國,制憲公投程序。宣佈終止實施「中華民國憲法」,終結運作「中華民國體制」,將目前外來政權中國人的中華民國政府,自「中華民國體制」脫殼出來,進入「台灣國體制」,蛻變成為,以台灣人的台灣國憲法,構制本土政權的台灣國政府,以台灣國政府名義進行國際邦交,正式建立一個主權獨立的台灣國。(按台灣絕不是自中國獨立,也不是自中華人民共和國政府獨立,更不是自已沒有國家主權的中華民國政府獨立,而是依據舊金山和約的精神台灣人自決建國制憲公投後,建立台灣國。)

  我們計劃在全國的319鄉鎮,以里為單位,徵求一萬名,有組織動員十名群眾能力的庄長,發展出一萬個以上的據點,做為建國制憲的宣傳站,每一鄉鎮,如有超過三分之一里的庄長,將產生一位相當於鄉鎮長的社長。每一縣,如有超過三分之一鄉鎮的社長,將產生一位相當於縣長的郡長,做為將來在自己的土地上寫憲法的種子部隊,關鍵時刻,可隨時改編成為台灣捍衛隊。

  我們將徵求一萬名制憲推手,每人捐助一萬元,(按只要台灣2300萬人的2300分之一,有一萬人每人捐助一萬元,就可籌足一億活動經費。或十萬人每人捐助一千元,或二十萬人每人捐助500元,同樣可籌足一億經費。)一旦籌足經費,就有信心,順利完成,台灣人在自己的土地上,寫憲法的世界歷史。這是台灣人,花最低成本,獲得最高報酬的建國制憲投資。

  母親不能等,子民要爭氣,身為台灣人,沒有悲觀的權利,必須樂觀奮鬥,突破環境枷鎖。起造台灣國,是2300萬台灣人最偉大的共同事業,人人都是股東,都有責任為起造台灣國作善事,為子孫幸福積功德,有錢出錢,有力出力,團結打拼一定會成功。

  尤其推動建國的工作者,更沒有停下腳步的理由,隨時隨地都要懷抱革命的熱情,犧牲就義的情緒,把握有限的生命,創造無限的契機,推動建國制憲,不達目的,絕不停止。

     想,不停的想,才能想得周全。

   眾人想,才能集思廣義,構想偉大計劃。

     做,不停的做,才能做完工作。

   眾人做,才能眾志成城,完成偉大事業。

     走,不停的走,才能走到目標。

   眾人走,才能展現力量,成就偉大理想。

眾人想聚共識,眾人做展形勢,眾人走向台灣國。


  不要讓母親哭泣,不要讓子孫怨嘆,所有台灣人團結站起來,相信台灣國,天公有保庇,一定有信心,信心激力量,力量推行動,行動達建國。祈求天公上帝,賜給台灣人勇氣,賜給台灣人力量,幫助台灣人建國。在咱這代,決志落實台灣國最後一步。就從我們出發,人民奮起建國,台灣新生制憲,建國制憲,是台灣人唯一活路。

台灣國工友
王獻極謹識

大家來做台灣國工友

工友是一般公司機關最底層的編制,工友是最早上班、最晚下班的工作人員。工友的工作就是在其他上班人員未到班前,先上班將四周工作環境預先清潔整理,如清潔廁所、掃地、擦桌椅、準備茶水等,以提供上班人員舒適便利的工作環境。上班時間,工友要在機關內部穿梭傳遞信件、公文書,有時還要兼做迎客送客的招呼。接受各單位主管或同仁等差遣,處理雜物私事等。等到機關下班了,工友還要重複一遍早上的工作,才能最後下班。雖然工友職位最低,卻要具有機伶、效率、合群、不多言、冷靜的個性,才能扮好稱職的工友角色。

  台灣社會一般人都崇尊賤卑,看輕工友身分,做父母的從小對子女的教育,卻是要做大官做大事賺大錢。因此,台灣人每人都想盡辦法要當主管、當老板,難怪兩千三百萬人口當中,有一百二十三萬六千家中小企業,有一萬多個社團,有一百多個政黨。難怪有人稱台灣社會是一盤魚仔全是頭。以致社會資源分散,社會力不能集中發揮,四百年了,還是不能建國。

  個人苦思沉潛半年,認為應該回到底層,擔任台灣國辦公室的工友。每天早起拿起清潔用具,將辦公室內有中國酸臭味的廁所清潔乾淨,拿起掃把將辦公室的中國泥土、中國廢紙掃進垃圾桶,將中國茶水、中國墨水倒掉,將中國桌椅換掉,將牆壁上的中國標語塗掉,換來整潔乾淨的台灣廁所、台灣地毯地板、不會暈墨的台灣紙張、甘甜的台灣茶水、符合人體工學的台灣桌椅、最新型MIT筆記型電腦,牆壁貼上煥然一新鼓舞人心的台灣標語,及通達世界各地無遠弗屆的視訊電視牆,提供各部門上班人員及主管們最舒適的工作場所。

  辦公室整理乾淨之後,看到辦公室外的台灣國環境,花萎、樹倒,山崩、橋斷,鳥飛、獸走,SARS、口蹄疫、毒奶粉,中華台北、中國台灣,到處充斥外來殖民中國文化的招牌、路名、建築,與人文活動。生活其上的台灣人,仍受困於外來政權「中華民國憲法」殖民體制的滿地垃圾,而寸步難行。要清除如此龐大的台灣國垃圾,恐怕非一個工友所能勝任,希望邀請更多的有志同好,一起來擔任台灣國工友,早日清除台灣垃圾,建立一個乾淨的台灣國國度,提供兩千三百萬台灣人共同工作且幸福的生活環境。


新憲法 新國家 新希望

憲法召集人 陳德正

一、台灣人若要出頭天就必須要完成二件代誌:

  頭一件:咱要用【勇敢的心】代替【悲情的心】;

  只有丟掉【悲情的心】,咱們才不會凡事,只要遇著困難,開口閉口就說:這是【台灣人的悲哀】;當這一句:這是【台灣人的悲哀】說出口的時候,咱們奮鬥的意志就會完全消失。只有勇敢!咱們才能大步跨出,面對挑戰,克服困難,走出光明!

  第二件:咱要用【台灣國憲法】代替【殖民國家憲法】

  只有丟掉:【殖民國家憲法】;咱們才不會,只要遇著政治上的紛擾,就祈求政治上的救世主來解救我們:當咱們有這樣的念頭,咱們就無法脫離政治紛擾的魔掌;只有制定台灣國憲法!咱們台灣人才會出頭天!

二、民主政治是平凡的政治,是你是我,是咱們每一個納稅人的政治。政治是什麼?在專制獨裁的社會:「政治是政府管理眾人之事」;在民主自由的社會:「政治是眾人管理政府之事」。

三、常聽人家說,「有什麼樣的人民,就會有什麼樣的政府」;我認為正確的說法應該是:「有什麼樣的制度,才會有什麼樣的人民與政府」;我不會去與人爭辯:「人性本善或是惡」;我們應該要做的是:「透過制度來抑惡揚善,使能者善,善者能」。

四、制定憲法,對別的國家來說,只要白紙寫黑字就完成;對台灣來說,白紙寫黑字並不夠;咱們若不用很感動人與震撼人心的方法來展現台灣國憲法,世界190幾個國家,敢接受我們的一定沒多少。絕對不再說這是【台灣人的悲哀】,咱要勇敢面對,用智慧,冷靜思考:用什麼方法來展現台灣國憲法,才能讓民主陣營的國家歡喜接受。請大家來想這一幕未來的場景:在公元20??年?月??日,數以百萬計的台灣人走出家門,迎接光明。在台灣的環島公路上,用心在自己的土地上一字一字寫出台灣國憲法…。當台灣人民用如此勇敢、智慧、和平與團結的行動,向國際明確的傳達制憲的意志與決心時。相信民主陣營的國家,一定會心服口服,並豎起大拇指說:台灣人真是了不起,台灣國將會是一個偉大的國家。

    本組織深信透過這樣全世界獨一無二,富有創意的制憲運動的完成,必將實現台灣建國制憲的理想。

五、只有行動才能完成我們的理想,台灣人在制憲的道路上,講太多、做太少,在座各位今天來到這裡,就證明大家對台灣的關懷,這是好的第一步,也是成功的第一步;時候一到,企望大家走出家門,鬥陣來寫台灣國憲法。

附註:

1.洛克:最高價值是個人而非國家,國家只是促進個人利益而設立的工具。

2.孟德斯鳩:自由並非產生於高尚的公民道德,而是產生於正確的國家體制。

Could anyone provide some information on the NEW TAIWAN CONSTITUTION which DPP President Chen Shui-bian said we would have by 2006?


2009/03/28 RK richard@eroica. com.tw

Allen,

I am with you!

Indeed, the author has pointed out the most centered weakness characterized by most part of Taiwanese.
What he has put regarding Taiwan Independence and nation-build- up is from an narrow angle based on regular ordinary democratic procedures that might be practicable and applicable in other places like East-Timor, 3 nations in Baltic sea but it's not be suitable for Taiwan. The reason is simple and transparent for those who understood the nature of KMT. He is right that KMT always a loser in front of CCP so Taiwanese became stupid since being cheated by KMT for 60 years, he forgot one point that Taiwanese is facing a new joint-force of reunion-twin CCP+KMT that is unbeatable!

We don't feel hopeless at all, on the contrary, we will win the war with only 5% dare-to-die out of those 25% Taiwanese who are really Iron-TaiDo!

As I always emphasize, NO BLOOD, NO TAIWAN REPUBLIC, having only 5% of Iron-TaiDo so we will have 23 millions X 5% = 1.2 million! See how mighty it would be! How much strength it would release! With blood of those 1.2 million dare-to-die, no one in the world is unbeatable!

I have the confidence as much as those who belong to the 5% DTD!

Subject: [BATA] 台灣獨立建國論是否可以信任?

Dear all:

The following is an outstanding article translated from Japanese. It is interesting to learn that there are quiet a few Japanese who believe that Taiwan's ultimate destiny is either subsidiary to Japan or the US, and Taiwan does not have the ability to be Independent. It appears to me that this author might be a little bit bald, but quiet honest.

However, the author is WRONG. Taiwan do have the ability to be independent, I guarantee!

台灣獨立建國論是否可以信任?

/むじな(日本人) 陳悅文譯

(編註:本文原題為《台灣獨立建國論不可信任!》,但是,基於台灣人奴性太重、缺乏激憤性格,在此台灣最脆弱的時刻,恐怕禁不起以肯定的驚嘆號重擊,因此,本報將之改為疑問句。)

台灣人氣外省人郭冠英侮辱台灣。不過,台灣人在生氣之前,應該要反省自己為什麼這麼容易被騙。郭冠英為什麼侮辱台灣人。如果台灣人不捫心自問,那麼,也難怪會被郭冠英侮辱。

台灣人健忘,自尊心又莫名其妙地高,死不認錯,無法客觀,也不反省。不知道是不是因為被殖民太久,以致於變成敗犬性格、不自助只想依賴別人,沒有自我,責任都是別人的,不恥自己的不智。所以,才沒一下子,不但把中國國民黨的獨裁忘光光,還讓中國國民黨大勝。

最近只要和獨立派講話,就覺得很煩。民進黨選輸以後,很多獨立派的精神狀態都有問題。講話牛頭不對馬嘴,自私,又只想靠別人幫忙。一講到敗選責任,一定是「都是陳水扁沒有好好使用權力,推行獨立政策」,要不然就是「國民黨太奸巧,所以被騙了」,反正「都是別人的錯」。

但是,為什麼「陳水扁沒有使用權力推進獨立政策」?還不是因為支持獨立建國的民眾在台灣是絕對少數。因此,這種怪陳水扁的說法,是不了解客觀情勢而且很自我的說法。

不論怎樣的調查,獨立建國派從來沒有超過一半。有的調查甚至有15-40%的差距,就安定的數定來看,大概25%左右。不管握有多少權力,要如何將25%的願望強加諸於其他75%人民的身上?不要說民主主義國家,連獨裁國家都很難。

反過來想也可以。現在支持統一的不到5%。90年代初期卻有30%時,也遭到獨立派長期的反對,因此,要如何推動只有25%的理論?

綜觀世界,民主獨立建國成功的國家,不論是波羅的海三小國、東帝汶都在公民投票中獲得八成以上的支持,因此,才有了獨立的可能。

就理論上來看,51%也可以。不過,就現實問題來看,還是有必要獲得75%以上的支持;就實例來看,大多有接近九成支持。

回過來看台灣,獨立建國只有25%的支持。那麼,要以民主推進獨立建國就絕對不可能。當然如果真的很想獨立,那麼,建國派每天舉行數十萬人的遊行,連續個半年,看看精誠所至其他75%人的人會不會被說服,改支持獨立。

問題是:那麼訐譙陳水扁及民進黨無能的獨立建國派民眾,在民進黨政權時代也沒有積極主動地要求民進黨策動遊行。遊行都是民進黨計劃,民眾只是被動地參加。講難聽點,就是官製的樣板遊行而已。簡單說,陳水扁及民進黨政權之所以沒有推進獨立政策的責任,在於蹺腳等獨立從天上掉下來的獨立派民眾。

聽獨立派說「都是中國國民黨太奸巧,所以才會被騙去」,真是只能苦笑。在許多犯罪當中,詐欺罪之所以是微罪,是因為「被騙的也有責任」。

何況在政治本來就是騙術。有投票權的公民必須要有看穿騙術的能力,如果說自己就是會被騙,那麼,等於是向世界宣告自己其實是不應該有選舉權的野蠻人。

從這裡也可以看出台灣人不想負責、卑怯而惰弱的心理,不管對方是什麼詐欺集團,其詐術有多奸巧,反正台灣人被騙,就是智商低。就世界來看,詐欺集團中國國民黨的騙術不但不高明,其實根本就很低級。而且還在中國輸給共產黨。

跟著國共內戰中輸給共產黨的國民黨逃來台灣的外省人中,本來在中國就是輸給共產黨的二、三流集團。說他們高級簡直笑死人。

國共內戰中,只要上得了抬面的知識人及文化人,除了胡適以外都支持共產黨。不要說共產黨員的趙樹理,連敵對馬克思主義的巴金,也選了共產黨而不是國民黨。唯一跟著國民黨的胡適來台灣沒多久,就受不了國民黨而逃到美國去了。

反正會跟國民黨的外省人,沒有可以稱得上高級的地方。但是,問題就在這裡,台灣人竟然那麼容易地被這些三流、低級的中國人支配了55年。這就是我覺得「日本語世代」沒用的原因。等到好不容易推翻了中國國民黨,什麼長得帥啦、633啦、二萬點啊,告訴你這種連日本人和中國人都不會上當的騙小孩的騙術,台灣人竟然讓國民黨大勝。不用郭冠英說,台灣人真是頭殼壞去。

不論如何,會被這麼低級的詐欺集團騙的民族,就是台灣人。這樣的民族能建國才怪。最少,日本人就不會被中國那種三流的詐欺所騙(當然日本也有媚中派。不過,媚中派是為了利益,也不是被騙。)中國國民黨這種政黨如果到日本參加選舉,不要說執政,連一席也選不上(奧姆便是這樣)。

老實說,台灣人是好人。意思就是腦筋不好。台灣人就算做壞事,有時其實沒什麼惡意。做壞事又不能罵,等於是說智商低到沒有責任能力。當然日本也有這種人。但比率很低。可是,台灣人當中,腦筋好又能邏輯性思考明白道理的人,其比率低到令人絕望(大概5%吧)。

台灣人當中能邏輯性思考明白道理的人,跟中國的「善人」及日本「搞不清楚的人」的比率差不多。就跟中國幾乎不可能要成為善人的社會一樣,台灣要成為講邏輯的社會大概也很難。而且很多獨立派根本不明白2008年的選舉結果對國際社會的意義。說什麼「選舉不代表任何意義」,根本是自欺欺人。因為不論2008年的立法委員選舉或總統選舉,民進黨都不是小輸,而是中國國民黨大勝。

對長期以來支持、替民進黨及台灣民主化加油的外國人來說,彷彿被台灣人背叛一般。最近,自由時報分別引述愛沙尼亞及波蘭兩國議員的話指出,對於積極支持台灣的人來說,「變成馬政府,傾中加速,我們的努力成空。已經不能信用,也無法針對台灣發表意見」。2008年選舉中台灣人的選擇,是對支持台灣的外國人的背信行為。獨立派雖然會反駁說,「他們是中國人,我們不一樣」,但外國人更不相信這種說法。

2004年時本來還過半數,現在只有41%。換句說話,至少有10%的「本來是台灣人,後來變成中國人」。這種一下子台灣人,一下子中國人的人能相信嗎?

換句話說,獨立派民眾到現在還沒能邏輯性地說明民進黨的敗北及中國國民黨的大勝,是打擊太大一獗不振嗎?話說回來,這種才一次打擊就軟掉,沒有抗壓性的性格,能建國才怪!而且比選舉更早的問題是:就算萬一民進黨獲得政權,又偶然成立台灣共和國,我們還是無法信任。「誰知道八年後台灣人會不會又忘記中國國民黨的惡行惡狀,又對台灣共和國不滿,再加上某個英俊的侯選人講個兩句,便又否定台灣共和國?」而且25%的建國派中,很多人天真地以為「只要宣佈獨立就好~」。

所謂的國家,「經營」比「建國」更重要,建國派不認真思考如何經營國家,哪有可能建國? 但是,統一派和中國人可不要偷笑。因為「沒獨立便是統一」這個命題是錯的。目前台、中的狀況,正說明中國沒有侵略、併合、統治台灣的能力。

如果中國經濟和中國國力正如中國政府所發表的統計數字一樣,又加上馬政府這麼露骨地朝中、台統合路線,那麼,現在正是中國統一台灣空前絕後的大好時機,但是,實際上台、中併合卻沒有什麼前進。而且如果照中國的統計數字,2002年時,中國就可以買下整個台灣了,但是,也沒有。

中國人有史以來就會自我誇大,常常覺得自己很強。而日本人卻會自我卑下,覺得自己其實沒那麼強。譬如甲午戰爭時,當時全世界沒有人想到大清帝國會輸給小國日本。現在也是如此。

中國沒想像地強。日本才是亞洲唯一、真正的大國。因此,台灣問題實際上不是統一或獨立的問題,而是從美或從日的兩選一問題。換句話說,不是與中關係基點的統一或獨立,而是從屬的問題。而其對象不是脆弱的中國,應該是美國或日本。

'銀膠菊蔓全台 恐致遺傳病變 到戶外要小心'

國際毒草〞銀膠菊",可能危害台灣生態,南投特有生物中心表示,銀膠菊正在悄悄蔓延全台,它具有毒性,吸入過多,可能會造成肝臟及遺傳病變。高挺的銀膠菊,在枝節部分開滿小白花,特別討人喜歡,但美麗的外表卻是對人體有害,它有鋸齒狀的葉子,會讓人誤認為是艾草。

南投特有生物中心博士黃正元表示,銀膠菊小時候看起來滿像是艾草,這樣一把就像滿天星一樣,所以有的人就誤解,這很像觀賞植物。

這是南投特有生物中心, 黃正元 博士,花了20年研究發現,這種來自南美洲墨西哥地區,常見的植物,自從在屏東現蹤跡之後,因為生長速度快得嚇人,現在悄悄往北移。有可能是因為港口運輸,貨輪從國外帶回這種有毒的花粉,因此讓銀膠菊,在台灣落地生根銀膠菊開小白花,常常讓人誤解是滿天星,它的細微纖毛具有毒性,吸入過多,可能會造成肝臟和遺傳病變。 ""

Mahatma Gandhi said that seven things will destroy us. Notice that all of them have to do with social and political conditions. Note also that the antidote of each of these "deadly sins" is an explicit external standard or something that is based on natural principles and laws, not on social values.

'Is This Last Gasp for the Israel Lobby and the Neocons?'
By Robert Dreyfuss, Tomdispatch.com. Posted March 16, 2009:
http://tinyurl.com/IsraelLobby-Neocons

"" After sinking intel chief Chas Freeman, pro-Israel hardliners are celebrating. But they may have overplayed their hand on this round. ""

: "" Is the Israel lobby in Washington an all-powerful force? Or is it, perhaps, running scared?

Judging by the outcome of the Charles W. ("Chas") Freeman affair this week, it might seem as if the Israeli lobby is fearsome indeed. Seen more broadly, however, the controversy over Freeman could be the Israel lobby's Waterloo.

Let's recap. On February 19th, Laura Rozen reported at ForeignPolicy.com that Freeman had been selected by Admiral Dennis Blair, the director of national intelligence, to serve in a key post as chairman of the National Intelligence Council (NIC). The NIC, the official in-house think tank of the intelligence community, takes input from 16 intelligence agencies and produces what are called "national intelligence estimates" on crucial topics of the day as guidance for Washington policymakers. For that job, Freeman boasted a stellar resumé: fluent in Mandarin Chinese, widely experienced in Latin America, Asia, and Africa, a former U.S. ambassador to Saudi Arabia during the first Gulf War, and an ex-assistant secretary of defense during the Reagan administration.

A wry, outspoken iconoclast, Freeman had, however, crossed one of Washington's red lines by virtue of his strong criticism of the U.S.-Israeli relationship. Over the years, he had, in fact, honed a critique of Israel that was both eloquent and powerful. Hours after the Foreign Policy story was posted, Steve Rosen, a former official of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), launched what would soon become a veritable barrage of criticism of Freeman on his right-wing blog. "
... ...

" On March 10th, Freeman bowed out, but not with a whimper. In a letter to friends and colleagues, he launched a defiant, departing counterstrike that may, in fact, have helped to change the very nature of Washington politics. "The tactics of the Israel lobby plumb the depths of dishonor and indecency and include character assassination, selective misquotation, the willful distortion of the record, the fabrication of falsehoods, and an utter disregard for the truth," wrote Freeman. "The aim of this lobby is control of the policy process through the exercise of a veto over the appointment of people who dispute the wisdom of its views."

Freeman put it more metaphorically to me: "It was a nice way of, as the Chinese say, killing a chicken to scare the monkeys." By destroying his appointment, Freeman claimed, the Israel lobby hoped to intimidate other critics of Israel and U.S. Middle East policy who might seek jobs in the Obama administration.

On Triumphs, Hysterias, and Mobs

It remains to be seen just how many "monkeys" are trembling. " ... ...
... ...

" Indeed, Freeman told me:

"The only thing I regret is that in my statement I embraced the term 'Israel lobby.' This isn't really a lobby by, for, or about Israel. It's really, well, I've decided I'm going to call it from now on the [Avigdor] Lieberman lobby. It's the very right-wing Likud in Israel and its fanatic supporters here. And Avigdor Lieberman is really the guy that they really agree with."

So here's the reality behind the Freeman debacle: Already worried over Team Obama, suffering the after-effects of the Gaza debacle, and about to be burdened with the Netanyahu-Lieberman problem, the Israel lobby is undoubtedly running scared. They succeeded in knocking off Freeman, but the true test of their strength is yet to come.

Digg!

' 'Theory of mind' could help explain belief in God ' Mar9,2009, by Andy Coghlan:
http://tinyurl.com/Brain-Religion
: "" Once we had evolved the necessary brain architecture, we could "do" religion, brain scans indicate.

The research shows that, to interpret a god's intentions and feelings, we rely mainly on the same recently evolved brain regions that divine the feelings and intentions of other people. "
... ...
" "It's not surprising that religious beliefs engage mainly the theory-of-mind areas, as they are about virtual beings who are treated as having essentially human mental traits, just as characters in a novel or play are," comments Robin Dunbar, an anthropologist at the University of Oxford.

"But it nicely reinforces my claim that it is the higher orders of intentionality that are crucial in the development of fully fledged religion as we know it," says Dunbar.

二二八事件紀念基金會委託陳儀深教授撰寫的「濁水溪畔二二八:口述歷史訪談錄」昨舉行新書發表會,多位接受口述歷史訪談的二二八家屬也出席;陳儀深表示,這本書除了記載二二八的最後一戰「樟湖之戰」,也呈現出二二八「抗爭」面向,而非過去認為只有「受害」面向。
陳儀深撰寫 走訪雲投等地
包括二二八事件紀念基金會董事長陳錦煌、前國史館長張炎憲、二二八民軍領導人陳篡地醫師的兒子陳彥文、參與醫治二二八傷患的藥局生陳天成、二二八事件竹山區民兵廖如賓的兒子廖國揚等,昨均出席發表會。
主持這項計畫的陳儀深表示,他從去年七月至今年一月,訪談了雲林縣的斗六、古坑、北港、虎尾、林內及南投縣竹山,重點事件包括虎尾機場被攻佔、竹山青年陣亡、林內仕紳出面講和(繳械)事件,以及陳篡地率民軍退往古坑樟湖,在桶頭與整編二十一師相戰,及所衍生來自北港、朴子民軍在古坑梅山交界被中國兵伏擊的事件。
陳儀深指出,根據檔案,整編二十一師自認「樟湖之戰」是台灣中部轉為安定的轉捩點,而陳篡地率領的民軍是在四月六日才被一四五旅四三四團驅散,「這真是二二八的最後一戰」。
張炎憲表示,台灣人抗爭是二二八事件最重要的精神,現在馬英九仍不時被二二八家屬嗆聲,主因就是國民黨只認為家屬可憐,卻不承認錯誤,這樣家屬怎可能撫平傷痕?要談和解,一定要了解二二八的精神才可能做到。

另,為追思一九四七年三月八日,基隆要塞部隊配合國軍登陸肅清街頭,造成死傷慘重,二二八事件紀念基金會與台灣二二八關懷總會昨在基隆舉辦「二二八地緣記憶追思活動」,徒步繞行市區,喚起記憶,希望傳承歷史。

曾與張七郎孫輩同學,張七郎大媳婦還是他的國小老師,徐頌鵬指出,張七郎父子以「背叛黨國」被誣陷入罪而慘死的真相,因為新一批史料的公諸於世,而漸漸浮出;據日前報章所載,遇難原因乃因私人恩怨。「民主和平公義,應該是紀念二二八事件所應努力的方向」,徐頌鵬企盼真相還原之餘,也希望事件原凶能悔改認罪。 "

'Unkind cuts target the majority’s language' Li Khin-huann 李勤岸, Sat,Feb21,2009, Taipei Times, p.8:

"Taiwan has a proficiency certification system for every language, including Mandarin, Hakka and indigenous languages, but not Hoklo."

: "" Since 2000, Feb. 21 has been observed as International Mother Language Day as proclaimed by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO). On this day every year, UNESCO announces the current status of mother tongues worldwide and makes an urgent call to all countries to preserve language assets.

The 2001 UNESCO report on mother languages around the world noted that languages in Taiwan, except for Mandarin, are dying. Although these languages, including Hoklo (commonly known as Taiwanese), Hakka and the many indigenous languages, continue to be widely spoken in some cases, they are all in need of preservation efforts.

'台獨的西點軍校 建國故事: 《一門留美學生的建國故事》' ◎ 張炎憲, 前國史館館長: Feb22,2009, The Liberty Times: 自由廣場:

青春有夢是種幸福。逐夢需要理想、熱情與實踐的意志,如果是要建國,更需要浪漫、膽識、勇氣與決心。吳三連台灣史料基金會出版《一門留美學生的建國故事》一書(http://www.twcenter.org.tw/),記錄一個家族、十個人在青春歲月時投入建國行列,追求偉大夢想的動人故事,將於二十二日下午假集思會議中心台大館舉辦新書發表暨座談會。

一九五○、六○年代,台灣處於蔣家獨裁統治的白色恐怖年代,很多菁英和民眾被逮捕槍決,言論思想自由被剝奪,社會正義無法伸張,很多年輕人因而出國留學。張家姊妹也在此風潮下赴美留學,並認識了另一半。在當時白色恐怖年代,父母大多訓示兒女不可參與政治,專心讀書,早日衣錦還鄉,但張家姊妹在大姊夫楊宗昌、大姊張肅的影響下,陳希寬、張郁彬、張伯寬、張月英等十人先後加入台灣獨立聯盟。縱使國民黨引誘勸降,甚至以吊銷護照威脅,他們都不為所動,充分顯示台灣留學生親睹美國民主自由之後,反思台灣人失去自由、沒有明天的日子,而不顧安危投入獨立建國行列。

他們在就讀堪薩斯州立大學時,即結合知己,從事學生運動,批判國民黨的獨裁,與國民黨派學生展開校園筆戰,並刊登二二八大屠殺的紀念文章,引起台灣學生的共鳴與美國友人的支持。因此,堪薩斯州立大學有「台獨的西點軍校」之稱,培養出許多台獨鬥士。

他們抵達美國不久,就陸續加入台灣獨立聯盟。楊宗昌在一九六四年、陳希寬在一九六六年加入,當時聯盟還在初創階段。一九七一年九月十八日,台灣人社團在紐約舉行民眾大會,彭明敏蒞臨演講,造成風潮,從此台灣人紛紛成立社團,推動台灣人的獨立運動。同年十月十八日,聯合國大會開會前夕,聯盟人士用鎖鍊將手綁在鐵欄杆上,大聲喊出台灣獨立的口號,隔日報紙刊登此項消息,引起國際人士的注目,形成一股力量,喚醒台灣人的意識,使得國民黨不得不重視台灣人的權益。

回顧過去白色恐怖年代,台灣處於艱難的時刻,張家十位親人追求獨立建國的豪情壯志,就會給我們一股力量與啟示,只要我們意志堅定,攜手努力,終有化不可能為可能的一天,完成建國的偉業。 ""

'Salmonella in Peanut Butter, Melamine in Milk -- How Do We Know What's Safe to Eat?' By Jill Richardson, AlterNet. Posted February 24, 2009.
http://tinyurl.com/FarmFoodHealth

""One can go vegetarian, buy organic, or avoid processed foods, but it is hard to truly avoid all of the dangers that lurk in our food.""

: " For example, a recent study by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy tells of mercury found in nearly one-third of products containing high fructose corn syrup, a substance ubiquitous in processed foods. The mercury comes from chlor-alkali plants that manufacture caustic soda.

Although newer, cleaner technology is available, some of these plants still use mercury, resulting in mercury contamination in the caustic soda. Then caustic soda is used to separate corn starch from the corn kernel in the high fructose corn syrup production process.

Only trace amounts of mercury end up in the high fructose corn syrup (the product with the most mercury from high fructose corn syrup still had 1,000 times less mercury than the average can of albacore tuna), but mercury is a neurotoxin, and consumers should not be exposed to it in their food, even at low levels.

Even excluding extreme problems like salmonella and mercury, America has proof, via declining public health, that our corn- and soy-based industrial diet is not healthy. Without family farms, consumers are less able to opt out of this food system.

When local farms lose, houses spring up where farmland once was, and the food produced locally is displaced with food from the enormous and consolidated industrial food system. Although most of us are not among the 2 percent of Americans who farm, if we wish to preserve our health and a way of eating focused on taste over convenience and marketing, then we need to save the few precious family farms we have left.

'台灣地位未定論 美上訴法院審理' 自由電子報 The Liberty Times, Feb7,09:
http://tinyurl.com/TaiwanCase-Feb5-7LT

: "" 〔駐美特派員曹郁芬/華府五日報導〕 包括台灣前司法院副院長城仲模,以及近百名旅美台僑今天擠進華府的聯邦上訴法院旁聽席,要確認美國是否仍為台灣的主要軍事佔領者,台灣人民是否可以據此要求美國政府發給護照?城仲模表示,如果輸了這場官司,未來還要一路打到美國最高法院。

近百名台僑擠進旁聽席

林志昇等人於二○○六年十月委託律師坎普對美國政府提出告訴,指日本在二次大戰投降後只宣布放棄台灣與澎湖列島的主權,並沒有將主權歸還給中國,舊金山和約也未處理台灣與澎湖的主權問題,美國依法仍是台灣的主要軍事佔領者,要求美國法院根據舊金山和約與美國憲法,檢視台灣人民應有的權利,包括申請美國護照。

許多台僑在辯論結束後圍住坎普,討論台灣地位未定論的證明,還要坎普閱讀「被背叛的福爾摩沙」一書以了解台灣歷史。這個案子在華府地方法院審理時,法官克麗亞(Rosemary Collyer)判決美國政府勝訴,她在判決書中表示,法庭不能審理政治問題,如果不處理美國行政部門多年來刻意且小心不就台灣主權進一步表態問題,是不可能決定訴訟人在美國憲法之下的權利,這對處於平等地位的行政部門不尊重。

美政府律師:屬政治問題

林志昇委由坎普律師向華府聯邦上訴法院提告,今天代表美國政府的律師是派特森(Melissa Patterson),除重申本案是政治問題外,她也表示,美台協防條約、美中建交公報和台灣關係法等後續法律條文,已經推翻了舊金山和約中有關台灣主權的主張。不過法官對於美國在舊金山和約簽訂時,是否擁有台灣的法理主權也提出質疑。

城仲模在華府的全美記者俱樂部舉行記者會表示,台灣問題從國際法的秩序來看,一定要找美國。

不過這個案件也在旅美台僑團體中引起爭議,有些僑民認為,這違反他們長年以來爭取台灣自決與獨立的原則。
得推薦 還可以 沒什麼

'Packed courtroom greets judges in Taiwan treaty lawsuit', by Michael Richardson, Boston Progressive Examiner, Feb5,09 1:59PM
http://tinyurl.com/TaiwanCaseFeb5-2009

: "" A standing room only crowd filled the courtroom in the District of Columbia U.S. Court of Appeals where a three-judge panel heard arguments on interpretation of the 1952 San Francisco Peace Treaty that officially ended World War II with Japan.

The case, Roger C. S. Lin, et al v. United States seeks a declaration of rights under the peace treaty, which transferred the island of Formosa to United States military control. There is presently a three-way tug of war over the future of Taiwan, as the island is presently known.

Communist China wants "reunification" despite never controlling the prosperous island. Then there is the Republic of China, which the U.S. allowed to be a caretaker government-in-exile when the Communist revolution of 1949 swept mainland China, which wants to be independent. Finally, the plaintiffs in the lawsuit and others are seeking recognition of U.S. territorial control under the 1952 treaty.

Attorney Charles Camp argued for the plaintiffs and was questioned by the three judges. Camp reports that the substantive issues of the case were well understood by the court.

"When the Government lawyer was asked whether any document had ever changed that provision of the treaty [regarding U.S. military occupation], the Government said no. When asked by one of the judges whether the Executive branch could unilaterally change the provision in the treaty making the U.S. the principal occupier of Taiwan, the Government lawyer hesitated and the judge then answered the question himself. He said the Executive branch cannot unilaterally change the language of a treaty."

At one point in the hearing, the Justice Department asserted the 1952 treaty was "irrelevant" leaving the judges stunned at the lack of a substantive response. One of the judges wondered if the U.S. was trying to "walk away" from its treaty obligations.

The main thrust of the government case was that it was a political decision and not a legal one. However, the Justice Dept. attorneys did not cite a single case that would deprive the Court of Appeals from interpreting rights under treaties.

A win by plaintiffs would put them in a similar situation with the residents of American Samoa where the island inhabitants are considered U.S. nationals but not citizens. Plaintiffs are seeking use of U.S. passports and other legal protections that would come with territorial status.

A judicial declaration of rights under the treaty would end the arms build-up and ease tensions between Taiwan and China. Last week the United States allowed Raytheon Corporation to sell $154 million worth of Patriot missiles to Taiwan. President Obama's new National Intelligence director Dennis Blair is expected to urge more missile sales if the unresolved status quo is maintained.

No date for a decision by the Court of Appeals has been announced.

'Court to hear arguments on U.S. ownership of Taiwan under WWII peace treaty with Japan', Michael Richardson, Boston Progressive Examiner: Feb4,09 3:04PM
http://tinyurl.com/US-Taiwan

: "" The District of Columbia U.S. Court of Appeals hears oral arguments this week over the future of Taiwan in a little-noticed but important lawsuit making its way through the U.S. courts. The case, Roger C.S. Lin, et al vs. United States, arises from the 1952 San Francisco Peace Treaty officially ending World War II. Japan, which had occupied the island of Formosa since the Sino-Japanese War in 1895, formally renounced all claims to Formosa and Pescadores Islands.

Japan's treaty with the United States was on April 28, 1952. Several months later on August 5, 1952, Japan entered a peace treaty with China, the Treaty of Taipei, but did not cede the island to China.

The United States militarily occupied Formosa at war's end but allowed Chinese troops under Chiang Kai-shek to accept the surrendering Japanese. Chiang's nationalist government, the Republic of China, was overthrown during the Communist revolution in 1949 and became a 'Cold War' government-in-exile on the island while the East and West were embroiled in ideological conflict.

The plan, under the treaty, was for the United States to transfer the island status to the United Nations for resolution. Instead, the U.S. had allowed the nationalist Chinese to set up shop and govern the island's populace. Many island residents did not welcome the Chinese rule.

On February 28, 1947, an uprising broke out in Taipei following an incident over a street vendor. The repression and fighting that followed was fierce and thousands died in what has become known as the 228 Massacre. For years, the deaths were hushed up and recognition of the scope of brutality did not emerge until the 1990's.

Communist China has long wanted the prosperous island and has been seeking a "reunification" for territory it never controlled. The unresolved legal status of Taiwan, as it is commonly known, has served the United States and its interests. Tension with China has resulted in the recent sale of $154 million worth of Patriot missiles from the United States to Taiwan.

The government of Taiwan has sought membership in the United Nations but has been repeatedly rebuffed by the United States. Plaintiffs in the lawsuit argue this is because the island is actually U.S. territory since it was never ceded to any country after U.S. military control.

The Justice Department, defending the United States, has sought to dismiss the case on grounds the issue is political not legal. The government has avoided the substantive question of ownership under terms of the 1952 treaty.

The last clear statement of United States policy on Taiwan was on October 25, 2004 when Secretary of State Colin Powell stated, "Taiwan is not independent. It does not enjoy sovereignty as a nation, and that remains our policy, our firm policy."

The stakes are high. When the case was before the U.S. District Court the Justice Department warned the court, "For plaintiffs to prevail in this action this Court would have to declare the United States sovereign over Taiwan." ""

' Taiwan's Sovereignty and Statehood Still "Undecided" Jerome F. Keating Ph.D.:
Wed Feb4,09: http://tinyurl.com/TaiwanSovereignty

: "" On February 5th, the oral arguments of a provocative lawsuit will go before the US Court of Appeals at 9:30 am. In this presentation, Dr. Roger Lin is arguing that the sovereignty and role of Taiwan in the international community remains a piece of unfinished business left over from World War II (WWII). Lin is claiming that since the US conquered Japan and its territories, it bears responsibility for the disposition of those territories and in particular that of Taiwan. That disposition was not made, treated or designated in the San Francisco Peace Treaty of 1952. Taiwan was given neither to the Republic of China (ROC), nor the People's Republic of China (PRC).

Lin's arguments have a certain resonance in the fact that in 2007, Dennis Wilder, the US National Security Council Senior Director for Asian Affairs has gone on record as saying that Taiwan's statehood is "undecided." This was an unusual statement for the country of Taiwan some sixty years after the end of WWII.

A Press Conference will be held that same afternoon of Feb. 5th at 1 pm in the Library Lounge of the National Press Club at 529 14th St. N. W., Washington DC. The press conference will treat the developments of the morning's hearing and potential subsequent plans of action.

How this will all come down has interesting ramifications. Do the 23 million people of Taiwan not have the right of self-determination granted in the Charter of the United Nations? After all, the population of Taiwan is larger than 75 per cent of the existing countries in the United Nations. Or should the Taiwanese be given the right to have US Passports? The results of this case should be followed by all. ""

'Future of Taiwan at stake in lawsuit over WWII peace treaty with Japan' Michael Richardson, Boston Progressive Examiner: Jan28,09 4:20PM
http://tinyurl.com/TaiwanLawsuitMR

""Michael Richardson is a freelance journalist and independent political consultant. Richardson writes about progressive issues, politics and election law. Richardson is also working on a book about the FBI and the Black Panthers.""

: "" A little known but very important lawsuit pending in the U.S. Court of Appeals over the peace treaty that ended the war with Japan may force the United States into a confrontation with China over the future of Taiwan located on the island of Formosa.

China's view that the Republic of China, more commonly known as Taiwan, is a renegade province and that Formosa should be reunited with the mainland flies in the face with historical fact. China never owned Formosa--the island belonged to Japan and ceded it to the United States in the San Francisco Peace Treaty.

The United States, moving from war with Japan into the 'Cold War' that followed, allowed the Chinese nationalist government fleeing the Communist takeover of China refuge on Formosa. Much to the current dismay of many on the island, the United States opposes nationhood for Taiwan and has kept it from recognition by the United Nations.

The unresolved status of Taiwan became a pivotal debate point in the famous Nixon-Kennedy presidential debates of 1960. Military exercises by the Chinese navy also periodically bring the topic into the news. However, what consistently is overlooked is the actual ownership of the island.

The plaintiffs in Roger C.S. Lin, et al v. United States, pending in the District of Columbia U.S. Court of Appeals, are seeking recognition of the fact that the United States owns Formosa and has never ceded ownership of the island to anyone, including the government of Taiwan. The lawsuit argues that the status of island residents are as non-citizen U.S. nationals entitled to the protection and privileges that accrue to U.S. territorial possessions.

The Bush administration made every effort to get the case dismissed arguing it was a political issue and not a legal matter. In mid-December the plaintiffs responded to the latest attempt to get the case dismissed.

The government never addresses the central question at issue in this appeal. It fails to recognize that Appellants are seeking multiple declarations, not just one pertaining to noncitizen national status. It fails to understand that the San Francisco Peace Treaty was not modified by any Executive Order of the President or the Taiwan Relations Act of 1979, and remains in full force and effect today.

In an earlier ruling that the case involved a political matter, the U.S. District Court acknowledged the plaintiffs have essentially been persons without a state for almost 60 years. The matter is scheduled for oral argument in early February. New Secretary of State Hillary Clinton may want to sit in the courtroom to learn about the case that she no doubt will have to deal with in the future.

鄭文燦主任指出,此案爆發令我們非常憂心的是馬政府的親中政策,讓所有的政府部門和各級公務員,心防上受到很大的衝擊;假如說國共平台可以光明正大地進行各項協商,甚至於我們很多外交上的行動,在沒有發動以前都要跟中國協商,顯然最大洩密的風險就是國共平台,對國家安全造成非常大的危害。

鄭文燦主任強調,該事件顯示出馬政府需要調整兩岸政策,必須對親中的政策進行檢討,假如在兩岸和解之後,中共仍然進行各項間諜活動,顯然就非如馬政府所言,兩岸之間有所謂的互信存在;事實上,中國對台灣包括政治、軍事、外交與經濟各方面,或是併吞台灣的準備,並沒有任何改變。

至於外界若要把該事件貼上任何政治標籤或影射綠營,鄭文燦主任對此表示,這些都是很廉價的政治操作,我們認為一個執政的政府不應該這麼做。

民主進步黨國際事務部對於本黨駐美代表辦公室帳戶之說明 / 2009-01-15

針對國民黨邱毅委員稱本黨於海外有密帳之不實指控,本部說明如下:

1995年,本黨在野期間,為加強對美工作,故設立駐美代表處。為支應常駐人員薪資及辦公室租金等事務性費用,本黨於美國第一聯合銀行(FIRST UNION NATIONAL BANK)開立帳戶,每年編列台幣420萬之經費匯入。2000年本黨執政後,考量執政黨不須另設駐美單位,故結束駐美代表處之運作,惟並未結清該帳戶。

2007年10月,因該銀行被美商美聯銀行合併,故通知本黨盡速領回該戶頭之款項,否則依規定,「靜止戶」之餘款未結清領回,視為放棄。本黨於是委請當時剛好有訪美行程之劉世芳中常委代為處理,共計匯回本黨台幣149萬餘元。

邱毅委員所謂本黨之海外密帳,即為本黨成立駐美代表處而設立的帳戶,戶名為「台灣民主進步黨駐美代表處」(TAIWAN DEMOCRATICPROGRESSIVE PARTY MISSION IN THE UNITED STATES)。陳前總統時任本黨主席,依法為該帳戶之代表人,故以其名義發函,請求該行返還該筆款項。

此一紙本原件應在美方銀行保管,取得此一文件之司法單位應徹查為何流出,此舉違反偵查不公開原則,本黨將追究責任歸屬。

邱毅以片段資料任意指控本黨正常財務管理為海外密帳,顯然是惡意扭曲誤導社會大眾之認知,本黨深感遺憾並譴責此一不負責任之行為。 ""

"U.S.–China relations after resolution of Taiwan’s status" Roger Cliff, David A. Shlapak, 'current as of September 2006' http://tinyurl.com/Rand-TaiwanStatus

""sponsored by the United States Air Force under Contracts F49642-01-C-0003 and FA7014-06-C-0001. Further information may be obtained from the Strategic Planning
Division, Directorate of Plans, Hq USAF.""

... ...

: "" Peaceful Unification ""
... ...
... "" There is an extensive, though
not unanimous, body of analysis that suggests that mature democracies
rarely, if ever, go to war with each other.5 There is, however, likewise
evidence that states undergoing the transition to democracy can
be more war-prone than others.6 Thus, the relationship between the
United States (or Taiwan) and a democratizing China could be highly
unstable, and any democratic transition in a country the size of China is
likely to be the work of many years, if not generations. If this transition
period were successfully negotiated, however, and a democracy were to
emerge on the mainland that was mature and stable enough for Taiwan
to unify with the mainland voluntarily, relations between Washington
and Beijing would likely be transformed as well. Although some
tensions and suspicions between the two sides would continue, just as
between any two countries, the chances of actual conflict between the
United States and a democratic China would be much lower than they
are today, particularly with the Taiwan issue also resolved.
----------
5 Brown et al. (1997); Farber and Gowa (1995), pp. 123-146; Spiro (1994), pp. 50–86.
6 Mansfield and Snyder (2005).

Peaceful unification could also be effected through some looser
form of political relationship, such as a confederacy or commonwealth,
in which both Taiwan and the mainland had equal standing and which
could be voluntarily dissolved at the initiative of either party. Achieving
this type of largely symbolic “unification” would not necessarily
require mainland China to become a democracy, and the effect on
U.S.-China relations would be similar to that described in the section
below called “Compromise Resolutions.” ""
... ...

"" Peaceful Independence
It is similarly unlikely that Taiwan could peacefully achieve independence—
that Beijing would formally recognize and accept it as an independent
state—without a fundamental transformation of the Chinese
polity. "" ... ...
... ...

"" Compromise Resolution
Absent a political transformation in mainland China, the best chance
for a peaceful resolution of Taiwan’s status probably lies in an arrangement
somewhere between formal independence and formal unification,
a state that might be called “peaceful in-betweenness.” Politicians
and analysts in Taiwan and the United States have proposed a number
of such formulas. One possibility would be an agreement to leave Taiwan’s
status unresolved for some period, with Beijing promising not
to use force as long as Taiwan refrained from attempting to formalize
its independence. Although this outcome would not be a true or final
resolution of Taiwan’s status, the period in question could be very long
or even unlimited, with the two sides agreeing to leave Taiwan’s status
unresolved until they both come to an agreement on the issue.

The current Chinese regime, including the new “fourth generation”
leaders, has so far shown no interest in such schemes, but it is
not inconceivable that a future party leadership would be both willing
and politically capable of accepting an arrangement with Taiwan
if the costs to regime stability of continued cross-strait tensions began
to outweigh the value of this specific play of the nationalism card. The
successive leaderships of the People’s Republic of China have frequently
surprised outside observers with their ability to make fundamental
changes to core policies. Thus, this is one way in which Taiwan’s
status could actually be resolved peacefully that might not necessarily
imply a fundamental change in the nature of the Chinese regime. As
in the case of “Peaceful Independence,” however, a Chinese regime
that would be willing to accept such an arrangement would almost by
definition be one that was more pragmatic in its approach to foreign
affairs.9 Although the possibility for competition and conflict between
the United States and such a regime would still exist, the new attitude
of the Chinese government, along with the elimination of the Taiwan
flashpoint, would significantly reduce the risk of war between the two
countries.
----------
9 The authors are grateful to Richard Bush of the Brookings Institution for this
observation. ""
... ...

"" For more than 25 years, U.S. policy has, above all else, sought
to ensure that any resolution of Taiwan’s status occurs peacefully. The
analysis here suggests that this has indeed been the correct policy, as
the consequences of a peaceful resolution of Taiwan’s status are almost
uniformly positive for the United States. The analysis here also shows,
however, that the consequences of violent unification are almost certainly
negative. Thus, as China’s power and confidence in its military
capabilities grow, it is important for the United States to maintain the
capability to deter and, if necessary, defeat an attempt by Beijing to
achieve unification through force. """

'台灣國家定位論壇:去中華民國 台灣才是獨立國家' Jan5,09, Liberty Times:
http://tinyurl.com/FormosaNationTalks

: "" 〔記者林毅璋/台北報導〕台灣教授協會昨舉辦「台灣國家定位論壇」,台大法律系名譽教授李鴻禧認為,應努力制定適合台灣實施的新憲法,廢除內容和現狀差異太大的中華民國憲法,並去除中華民國國名,正名為台灣國,讓台灣是主權獨立國家的地位更確定。

淡江大學國際學院日本研究所教授許慶雄表示,台灣不能獨立建國的關鍵是多數人未認清「中華民國僅是政府而不是國家」。許強調,台灣要成為國家,必須向國際社會「宣布獨立」,以新國家身分向聯合國秘書處提出加入申請書。前駐日代表許世楷則說,前總統陳水扁任內以台灣名義申請加入聯合國,這是通往法理上主權獨立國家之路,可避免中國阻撓。

清華大學科技法律研究所副教授黃居正也認為,若未能與中華民國切斷,台灣就不是一個獨立的國家。黃說,無論是藍綠執政時,都未能向國際宣示台灣是獨立的國家,因此國際仍視我們為中華民國,但卻與中國之間曖昧不明。且我國憲法從未排除對岸是中華民國的領土,國際上自然對兩岸混淆不清,台灣能成為獨立國家的空間也愈來愈小。

台灣新世紀文教基金會董事長陳隆志主張,台灣是主權獨立國家,這與邦交國有多少無關,台灣與中國是互不隸屬的兩個國家,這是目前的政治現狀。

台教會副會長劉重義則強調,如果執政者不能與中華民國有所切割,即使已經有二位台灣人做了總統也是沒用。 ""

'王清峰說謊'

"" 針對「馬統」發動司法追殺民進黨官員,尤其毫不避人耳目的操弄司法以達到羈押前總統陳水扁的目的,廿一位國際知名的學者專家已經連續發表三封公開信加以譴責,措辭一封比一封嚴厲。從第一封的「深切關注」到第二封的「擔憂」到第三封信的「駁斥」,可說砲火愈來愈火熱、愈來愈不顧情面。

第一封給馬英九的信,《新聞周刊》(Newsweek)譽為「前所未有」,立刻加以引用。接著號稱「馬統」老師的孔傑榮在專欄中摘用其論點,但是謹慎的保留某些看法;司法迫害手段益發加劇下,孔傑榮只能站在廿一位學者的一邊了。

廿一位學者的第二封信指名給法務部長王清峰,去年十一月廿五日見於英文報刊《台北時報》,特別點明「台灣司法的腐蝕」。王清峰立刻做出回應,一一說明,也一一辯解、洗刷「政治力介入」的質疑。

一月廿四日的第三封信是條列式的用「具體要點」拆穿王清峰的答辯;老實說,就是指控王清峰說謊。

第一個要點是正面的告訴王清峰,她援引德國、日本、美國來證成「審前羈押制」是「合乎正當法律程序」,全然不能接受;尤其台灣司法「全面使用」與孔傑榮所說「應該很少使用」背反,更指出「僅用於現任和前任民進黨官員」破壞了「司法系統的公正性」。第三封信開宗明義的正告王清峰,所謂「貪瀆犯罪……並無選擇性辦案」,不能取信於人;王清峰說謊。

第二點關於「押人取供」的答辯,公開信認為「完全不正確」,打了回票;第三點針對「收押人與律師討論被錄音錄影」,公開信指出王全然「忽略不提」,指控王沒說實話。

第四點用「事實」反駁王清峰所說:偵查過程「調查資料只能透過檢察官辦公室披露」,根本不實;王清峰騙人。同時也抨擊法務部以「洩密」入扁律師鄭文龍於罪,是「政治偏見的直接確認」。

第五點指出「特偵組」用「手銬」和「羈押」辦扁案是「偏袒方式」,從而拆穿王清峰否認「司法受到政治操縱」,明確的指出台灣司法很難有「公正審判」。

第六點更有趣。王清峰引用美國國務院回應台灣司法的聲明當自我「背書」;公開信特別指出「在國際外交語言,『我們預期所有事情』此一術語的意思是『我們很擔心,並會仔細關注』」,王清峰拿美國話騙外國人,卻遭吐槽,說謊說到爪哇國去!

有怎樣的主子就有怎樣的奴才,反之亦然!從馬看王或從王看馬,騙騙騙,一也。(作者金恒煒為《當代》雜誌總編輯) ""

'綠營支持者情何以堪 扁長別跟過去過不去' ◎ 侯錦霞: The Liberty Times 自由廣場 2009-1-22:
http://tinyurl.com/BianChang

: "" 前總統陳水扁在他的新書「台灣的十字架」大揭謝長廷的瘡疤,謝長廷雖說不計較,卻也綿裡藏針地反擊,爆了一些阿扁的料。不料歹戲未了,阿扁的女兒陳幸妤投書媒體,加料對謝長廷再給予重重一拳。長久以來的「扁長情結」,似乎有進入白熱化的趨勢,讓人看得膽戰心驚。

過去有人將「扁長情結」比喻為「瑜亮情結」,三國時代的周瑜忌諸葛亮之才,時時想除去諸葛亮,以絕後患,但奈何「一著棋局難敵對,幾番算計總成空」,最後周瑜懷著「既生瑜,何生亮」的感嘆死於卅六歲的壯年。

瑜亮本為敵對陣營,諸葛亮在瑜亮之爭中佔了上風,讓蜀國三分天下的地位更加穩固。扁長卻是過去台灣民主化過程中攜手合作的同志,如今同志倒戈,互揭瘡疤,你來我往,刀刀見血,毫不留情,令人憂心扁長未分出勝負之前,民進黨就已在「既生扁,何生長」的無奈下分崩離析了。

為了民進黨的延續,為了台灣民主的順利推動,扁長雙方都歇手吧!畢竟,沒有了民進黨,沒有了民主台灣,不管扁長雙方互鬥的算計為何,都將成空。

Well, we have "proclamation" . The last sentence "hope for a Formosa republic" is very good. I have modified a little and reinserted civil rights where applicable. This petition is forming a solid platform, too. Global Forum Int'l, Inc. could potentially adopt this as the mission statement for the objectives of its political lobbying. Mission statement is coming into focus. Please review for grammar and content.

We, the people of Formosa, as residents of our island and abroad, reject the label of Chinese nationality; invoke our human rights of self-determination; and do hereby demand that the exiled government of the Republic of China on Taiwan be forever be banished from our Formosa.

吾等,福爾摩沙之民;子民遍佈全世界,同為地球村公民;拒絕被強冠以"中國人"國籍;秉持"住民自決"為最崇高之人權;堅決要求"中華民國在台灣流亡政府"自福爾摩沙(台灣)撤離.


(paragraph 1: statement of goal/purpose)

Herewith, we hereby jointly petition for a Declaratory Judgment of the civil rights of Formosans and Writ of Mandamus by the US Supreme Court to convene the United States Court of Formosa as the war crimes tribunal for international crimes committed by the Chinese Nationalists on our island of Formosa including genocide, pillaging, and conspiracy for denial of the civil rights of the People of Formosa.

本此,吾等請願美國最高法庭裁決並頒授執行令,在福爾摩沙(台灣)之台北市或其他合適城市成立美利堅聯邦福爾摩沙(台灣)法庭;譴責"中華民國在台灣流亡政府"暨中國國民黨之集團種族滅絕大屠殺之戰犯罪行,陰謀反叛,剝奪及漠視福爾摩沙(台灣)子民人權之罪.


(Paragraph2: statement of pain and suffering and reason for action)

We also hereby petition for such rights in order to seek redress of our grievances; and for restoration of our inalienable civil rights under the territorial jurisdiction of the Administrative Authority of the United States Military Government (USMG) over Formosa Cession, to secure our civil rights and legal protections, in accordance with the US Constitution, San Francisco Peace Treaty (SFPT), Taiwan Relations Act and Laws of War.

吾等亦就此同時為福爾摩沙(台灣)子民在依國際戰爭法,美利堅聯邦憲法,舊金山和平條約,以及台灣關係法,應被美利堅聯邦軍事政府保護下被賦予之人權請願;准予請求人命財產自由等等損害之賠償.


(paragraph3: stating legal sources for the petition)

The United States, being the major conqueror of the Japan Empire during World War II; and the USMG having effective territorial jurisdiction over Japan and its Pacific islands of Formosa and the Pescadores; acting as the primary protector of these Pacific islands against all external aggressors since the 1945 unconditional surrender by Imperial Japan; petition that the United States, as the Occupying Power of former Japanese island territory, should permanently remove the current regime for their crimes of systematic murder, oppression, and unjust enrichment by the exiled Chinese governing authorities on Taiwan, constituting more than six decades of foreign corruption over Formosa and the Pescadores.

美利堅聯邦,乃第二次世界大戰對日本帝國之主要戰勝國; 美利堅聯邦軍事政府至今仍為福爾摩沙暨澎湖群島等之法理管轄者,自有權力與義務將今之馬政府---此乃中國國民黨政權,亦乃"中華民國在台灣流亡政府"---自福爾摩沙暨澎湖群島撤離.


(paragraph4: stating power and authority sources of the US and the USMG)

Whereas, the ROC administrative authorities should be forever banished to the People's Republic of China in Beijing along with the return of the ROC-controlled islands of Kinmen/Matsu; We do hereby further petition the USMG to establish a legal successor government by the Formosan Civil Government; the only true and legitimate successor composed of the Formosan people, by the Formosan people and for the Formosan people.

就國際慣例而言, "中華民國流亡政府"理應挾其金門與馬祖兩島,撤回中國,與北京成立之中華人民共和國合併,結束內戰,以達成其統一之最臻目標.


(paragraph5: stating the de jure process for unification of the ROC and the PRC)

We hereby further petition that a new constitution for the Formosan Civil Government be drafted for public comment and to be voted into the supreme law of the land; an act of organic law long overdue to the Formosan people, in accordance with the principle of self-determination under Article 73 of the United Nations Charter.

吾等更進一步請願,為福爾摩沙平民政府頒憲, 福爾摩沙子民得以經由討論,求取共識,並公投入憲.此乃根據聯合國大憲章第七十三章,人民自決自治之崇高精神.


(paragraph6: re: UN Charters, chapter 73, self determination and self governing)

Citizens of Formosa shall deserve the equal protections of their new constitution; shall respect the rule of law; shall have the civil rights to their long desired pursuit of life, liberty, and prosperity, with justice for all.

凡福爾摩沙公民,自應被其憲法賦予平等保護之權; 自應尊守憲法等法律規章; 自應享有全體子民長遠以來追求渴望保障生命,自由,財產,以及公義之權利.


(paragraph7: statement of rights and goal, purpose)

Our fellow Formosans, being islanders like other islanders of the world, are peace seeking freedom lovers. The Formosan people deserve a free, secure, bright, fearless and democratic future. Formosan citizens are eager to help by bringing and maintaining peace, stability and prosperity to the Western Pacific region.

吾等全體福爾摩沙子民,無異於全世界其他愛好和平與自由之島嶼之民. 福爾摩沙島民自應同樣有追求自由,光明,免於恐懼,享有民主前景之權利.


(paragraph8: stating the characteristics of islander people and rights to their life style)

Together, we solemnly hold the HOPE for the Formosa Republic!

於此,吾等團結一至,莊嚴謹抱福爾摩沙共和國之願望!

Subj: Re: Formosan Declaration - REVISED & Reformatted - to be TRANSLATED into Hanj...


We, the people of Formosa from all over the world, as Citizens of the Greater World; with diversified cultures and races; rejecting to be labeled of Chinese nationality; believing in the ultimate human rights of self-determination; do hereby demand that the government of the "Republic of China (ROC) in exile" be removed off Formosa (Taiwan).

吾等,福爾摩沙之民;子民遍佈全世界,同為地球村公民;拒絕被強冠以"中國人"國籍;秉持"住民自決"為最崇高之人權;堅決要求"中華民國在台灣流亡政府"自福爾摩沙(台灣)撤離.


(paragraph 1: statement of goal/purpose)

Herewith, we petition for a Declaratory Judgment and Writ of Mandamus by the US Supreme Court, to convene the United States (US) Court of Formosa in Taipei (and/or any other Formosan city); to condemn the Chinese Nationalist KMT (Kuomingtang) regime of the "Republic of China government-in- exile" for War Crimes of genocide, pillaging, conspiracy and denying the civil rights of the People of Formosa.

本此,吾等請願美國最高法庭裁決並頒授執行令,在福爾摩沙(台灣)之台北市或其他合適城市成立美利堅聯邦福爾摩沙(台灣)法庭;譴責"中華民國在台灣流亡政府"暨中國國民黨之集團種族滅絕大屠殺之戰犯罪行,陰謀反叛,剝奪及漠視福爾摩沙(台灣)子民人權之罪.


(Paragraph2: statement of pain and suffering and reason for action)

We also hereby petition for the rights to redressing our grievances, and for restoring our inalienable human rights under the jurisdiction of the Administrative authority of the United States Military Government (USMG) over Formosa Cession, a right and protection, in accordance with the US Constitution, San Francisco Peace Treaty (SFPT), and the Taiwan Relations Act.

吾等亦就此同時為福爾摩沙(台灣)子民在依國際戰爭法,美利堅聯邦憲法,舊金山和平條約,以及台灣關係法,應被美利堅聯邦軍事政府保護下被賦予之人權請願;准予請求人命財產自由等等損害之賠償.


(paragraph3: stating legal sources for the petition)

The US, being the major World War II conqueror of the Japan Empire; and the USMG having effective territorial jurisdiction over Formosa and the Pescadores; should remove the current Ma regime, that is, the Chinese nationalist KMT regime; and that is, the exile-ROC governing authorities on Taiwan, from their more than six decades' rulings over Formosa and the Pescadores.

美利堅聯邦,乃第二次世界大戰對日本帝國之主要戰勝國; 美利堅聯邦軍事政府至今仍為福爾摩沙暨澎湖群島等之法理管轄者,自有權力與義務將今之馬政府,此乃中國國民黨,亦乃"中華民國在台灣流亡政府",自福爾摩沙暨澎湖群島撤離.


(paragraph4: stating power and authority sources of the US and the USMG)

Whereas, the ROC authority should be returned to the People's Republic of China in Beijing along with the ROC-controlled islands of Kinmen/Matsu; We hereby further petition the USMG to establish a successor government, a Formosan Civil Government of the Formosan people, by the Formosan people and for the Formosan people.

例而言, "中華民國流亡政府"理應挾其金門與馬祖兩島,撤回中國,與北京成立之中華人民共和國合併,結束內戰,以達成其統一之最瑧目標.


(paragraph5: stating the de jure process for unification of the ROC and the PRC)

We hereby further petition that a new constitution for the Formosan Civil Government be drafted for public discussion and be voted onto the law of the land, that is, an act due to the Formosan people, in accordance with the principle of self-determination under Article 73 of The United Nations Charter.

吾等更進一步請願,為福爾摩沙平民政府頒憲, 福爾摩沙子民得以經由討論,求取共識,並公投入憲.此乃根據聯合國大憲章第七十三章,人民自決自治之崇高精神.


(paragraph6: re: UN Charters, chapter 73, self determination and self governing)

Citizens of Formosa shall deserve equal protections by their new constitution; shall respect the rules of law; shall have the rights to their long desire and pursuit of life, liberty, and prosperity, with justice for all.

凡福爾摩沙公民,自應被其憲法賦予平等保護之權; 自應尊守憲法等法律規章; 自應享有全體子民長遠以來追求渴望保障生命,自由,財產,以及公義之權利.


(paragraph7: statement of rights and goal, purpose)

Our fellow Formosan, being islanders like other islanders of the world, are peace and freedom lovers. The Formosan people deserve a free, secure, bright, fearless and democratic future, and are eager to help by bringing and maintaining peace, stability and prosperity to the Western Pacific region.

吾等全體福爾摩沙子民,無異於全世界其他愛好和平與自由之島嶼之民. 福爾摩沙島民自應同樣有追求自由,光明,免於恐懼,享有民主前景之權利.


(paragraph8: stating the characteristics of islander people and rights to their life style)

Together, we solemnly hold the HOPE for the Formosa Republic!

於此,吾等團結一至,莊嚴謹抱福爾摩沙共和國之願望!

Subject: Chinese Problem! #1000 < Re: 台灣問題!
-------------------------------
[Tsai 09.1.2=5 #1 09#2] Dear CK: Of course we all know this is a "Chinese Problem"! They should have been elevated to a bright civilization respecting human rights, with a long and continous history and culture, even if without direct tradition of ancient Greek democracy and freedom (until perhaps the Christian conquest of the West, sinking into dark ages and all kinds of horors, now they have to cope with the Islam also from the Mideastern deserets.) It is difficult to understand why Falunggung is so threatening, they are Chinese, with or without CIA and so on. Dalai Lama is a great spiritual leader, with rational and reasonable thinkings. Why cannot he be a precious friend of China? Isn't China big, wise, powerful, and dynamic enough? There are indeed many questions about Chinese Problem! Could we Formosans help them in any way? They have forgiven their past deadly, murderous, and treachorous enemy, the Chiang gang, which should be welcomed back to China.

As a part of East Asian Sinic Civilization, related directly with China, Japan, and the West, we the Formosans could be a powerful media for the future of China and all the oversea Chinese.

I hope, Taiwan Republic, your lawsuit team, my idea of Formosa Federation, or all other Formosans ready to raise our national flag and anthem, could include my above ideas included in all their publie proclamation. They would be a new world Declaration of Freedom for all humans of the 21st Century. Cf. my blog: http://bbcwebb.blogspot.com

Subject: 台灣問題!

“台灣問題Taiwan question”
中國與美國外交史上出現提及「台灣問題Taiwan question」的文件,一九七二年二月二十八日美中上海公報提及:”The United States reaffirms its interest in a peaceful settlement of the Taiwan question by the Chinese themselves.”另外,在雷根總統當政時,一九八二年七月間提出”六大保證Six Assurances to Taiwan”其中第五項:”The United States would not alter its position about the sovereignty of Taiwan which was that the question was one to be decided peacefully by the Chinese themselves.” 茲分析其有關question之定義如下:

所謂question是指「爭論中的議題,被開放討論或進行調查」,英語解釋為”A subject or aspect that is in dispute, open for discussion or to be inquired into”美國政府不使用”Taiwan issue”或者”Taiwan problem”而引用”Taiwan question”是別有用心與奧妙之處。美國政府的立場是一再提醒兩邊的中國政權(與臺灣人無渋),在互稱擁有台灣領土主權的爭論中,務必以和平理性的方式去「調查與研究」,台灣領土主權之「法理主權de jure sovereignty」的歸屬,既然有”question”存在,就必然有”answer”答案。 "

'台灣平民政府081231聲明'
'Taiwan Civil Government Announcement': Dec. 31, 2008

: "" 流亡中國(中華民國)政府代表人馬英九先生,2008年12月15日借用其軍事佔領地台灣,宣佈正式與中國人民共和國啟動「三通直航」,並表示:「兩岸直行所代表的意義,一方面代表兩岸(兩個中國,不含台灣在內)的和解,不再走過去對立衝突的路線,不論是戒急用忍或者是有效管理,都走進了歷史,我們(兩個中國,不含台灣在內)現在面對的是一個歷史的新局(讓台灣人不再被中國人困擾)˙˙˙」
On Dec. 15, 2008, the representative of the Republic of China (ROC) government in exile, Mr. Ma Ying-jeou, as the subordinate military occupier of Taiwan, announced the opening of the three links with the Peoples’ Republic of China (PRC), and remarked that direct flights between both sides of the Taiwan Strait represent an important step in the reconciliation between both countries, and the elimination of mutual enmity. In the future, with the recognition that the misunderstandings of the past have been swept away, both sides look forward to increased levels of participation in all activities, and the dawn of a new era for China .

台灣平民政府對於馬先生這段談話必須表示讚揚,下一階段,希望流亡中華民國與中華人民共和國儘速簽署「兩邊和平協定」,結束中國內戰,流亡中國政府能夠安然返回中國本土。
The Taiwan Civil Government fully approves of Mr. Ma’s comments, and urges the ROC and the PRC to sign a formal peace accord, which can serve to end the period of the Chinese Civil War. After this is done, it is hoped that the ROC can speedily return to its remaining sovereign territories of Kinmen and Mazu.

台灣領土上的台灣人素來未曾與中國人有怨仇,無必要追求和解,也無須要無辜面對襲擊「流亡中國(中華民國)政府」的千餘顆飛彈,雙方啟動「三通直航」後,在臺灣流亡的中國人,已經無繼續留在台灣領土的任何理由,台灣人籲請流亡中國(中華民國)政府早日返回中國本土,還給台灣人安和樂利的一片天。
The people of Taiwan have never had any arguments or hostilities with China , and therefore need make no reconciliations. While the PRC has over 1000 missiles aimed at Taiwan , those are due to the presence of the ROC government in exile on Taiwanese soil, and do not directly involve the native Taiwanese people. After the opening of the three links, there is no longer any need for the ROC government in exile to remain in Taiwan, and the native Taiwanese people look forward to the ROC government in exile’s early departure, to return to its China motherland, and leave the Taiwanese people to build up their island’s economy and democracy under their own initiatives.

: "" New research into language evolution suggests most Pacific populations originated in Taiwan around 5,200 years ago.

Scientists at The University of Auckland have used sospisticated computer analyses on vocabulary from 400 Austronesian languages to uncover how the Pacific was settled.

"The Austronesian language family is one of the largest in the world, with 1200 languages spread across the Pacific," says Professor Russell Gray of the Department of Psychology. "The settlement of the Pacific is one of the most remarkable prehistoric human population expansions. By studying the basic vocabulary from these languages, such as words for animals, simple verbs, colours and numbers, we can trace how these languages evolved. The relationships between these languages give us a detailed history of Pacific settlement."

"Our results use cutting-edge computational methods derived from evolutionary biology on a large database of language data," says Dr Alexei Drummond of the Department of Computer Science. "By combining biological methods and linguistic data we are able to investigate big-picture questions about human origins".

The results, published in the latest issue of the prestigious journal Science, show how the settlement of the Pacific proceeded in a series of expansion pulses and settlement pauses. The Austronesians arose in Taiwan around 5,200 years ago. Before entering the Philippines, they paused for around a thousand years, and then spread rapidly across the 7,000km from the Philippines to Polynesia in less than one thousand years. After settling Fiji, Samoa and Tonga, the Austronesians paused again for another thousand years, before finally spreading further into Polynesia eventually reaching as far as New Zealand, Hawaii and Easter Island.

"We can link these expansion pulses to the development of new technology, such as better canoes and social techniques to deal with the great distances between islands in Polynesia," says Research Fellow Simon Greenhill. "Using these new technologies the Austronesians and Polynesians were able to rapidly spread through the Pacific in one of the greatest human migrations ever. This suggests that technological advances have played a major role in the spread of people throughout the world."

'慰安婦有兩種' ◎ 甄生 自由時報 2008-12-28

: " 筆者認為...必須所有慰安婦都要一視同仁,因為台灣慰安婦有兩種,一種是日軍台籍慰安婦,一種是國軍台籍慰安婦,兩種都是弱勢族群,...。

自古以來,強勢民族蹂躪異族的婦女是一種「理所當然」,蹂躪自己的同胞婦女才是不可原諒。...從民國四十年開始,政府為了解決軍人性的問題,不管是外島或台灣,到處設立軍中樂園(也稱八三一,後來改為軍中茶室),這些所謂的軍中樂園女服務生,就是跟...日軍慰安婦是一模一樣的。這些慰安婦進來的管道有好多種,有的是向貧家女的父母買來的,有的是妓女志願的,其中最多的是私娼被警察抓到送來的,尤其那些十四、五歲還沒有資格拿到公娼執照的私娼,一被抓到,必定被送到前線的軍中樂園當慰安婦,以避免逃亡。

民國四十年代後期,筆者在軍中擔任醫務工作,曾經在軍中樂園醫務室輪值時看過一個十六歲小女孩每天哭啼,原來她是在萬華寶斗里當私娼,那一年軍中慰安婦不夠,警務處下令掃蕩私娼,結果抓到一大批妓女送到軍中樂園,這個十六歲小女孩就是其中之一。我問她還不是一樣賺錢,為何那麼傷心,她說,一天對付幾十個年輕力壯的阿兵哥吃不消,下體疼痛也不能請假(除非是性病),在私娼寮客人沒那麼多,單價又高五、六倍,在軍中樂園等於囚犯在受刑。

筆者依軍中樂園的家數、人數及期間(從民國四十年代初期到六十年代末期)推估,在軍中樂園服務過的慰安婦起碼超過一萬人(國防部一定有資料),扣掉已經凋零的,現在尚健存的起碼還有好幾千人。這些慰安婦和日軍慰安婦情況是相同的,...。(作者為醫師) ""

: "" 〔記者彭顯鈞/台北報導〕九○八台灣國運動昨在台北一○一大樓旁升起「台灣國」國旗,民進黨主席游錫堃強調,獨立建國已是主流民意,絕非偏激議題。

台灣國運動召集人王獻極強調,九月八日是舊金山和約簽訂紀念日,條約明定日本放棄台灣的主權,九○八台灣國運動認定當天為台灣主權獨立日,每年都舉辦升旗典禮,昨在北市一○一大樓旁舉辦「正名制憲新國家、全民推進聯合國」。

游錫堃、台聯黨主席黃昆輝、多位民進黨及台聯立委到場,眾人揮舞「台灣國」旗幟,在「台灣翠青」這首認定的台灣國歌歌聲中,看著「台灣國」的旗幟升起。

游錫堃表示,依民進黨八月做的民調,七成民眾自稱是台灣人,外省族群也有近四成自認是台灣人,「台灣要獨立」是主流民意,絕非偏激議題,希望民眾支持民進黨的「長昌配」,做自己的主人,也把台灣送進聯合國。

主辦單位特別安排一個大型氣球,在眾人矚目下緩緩升空,大氣球在半空中破裂後,一個台灣造型的綠色氣球破繭而出,象徵台灣國誕生,現場民眾高聲歡呼,氣氛達到最高潮。

台灣建國聯盟隨後也發起支持「台灣加入聯合國」公投遊行,行經美國在台協會時,高聲表達台灣人民的心聲。

〔記者彭顯鈞/台北報導〕台聯黨主席黃昆輝昨強調,加入聯合國是台灣人民共同願望,但入聯公投若變成選舉操作,甚至無法通過,台灣將付出慘痛代價,他特別呼籲陳總統召開國是會議,朝野各界共同面對這個嚴肅課題。

黃昆輝指出,「既然已發動公投,無論如何一定要通過,不能讓國際錯誤解讀,否則台灣將付出慘痛代價!」 ""

2008年6月21日
: "" 中華民國這個政府的政權,自1949年10月1日起,已被中國共產黨所成立的中華人民共和國政府推翻消滅了,中華民國這個政府在聯合國所代表中國的國家主權,也於1971年10月25日被撤換,由中華人民共和國政府所繼承。中華民國政府在國際社會,自此終止代表中國主權國家的身分,降格淪落為不是國家的政府,或頂多是一個準國家政府的組織型態。

台灣人至今,尚未宣佈脫離中華民國體制,制憲建國。台灣人尚未制定,並實施ㄧ部屬於台灣人的台灣國憲法,以台灣國憲法建構台灣國體制,組成台灣國政府,再以台灣國政府,代表台灣人在國際社會,行使台灣國國家主權。到目前為止,無論是台灣人個人,或是台灣人團體組織或是政府團體代表,一出海關,就受到蹧蹋、凌辱,猶如無照流動攤販,在國際社會的商場中討生活,到處遭受取締一樣,過著沒有國家主權尊嚴的流浪生活。 "

" 眾人想聚共識,眾人做展形勢,眾人走向台灣國。
不要讓母親哭泣,不要讓子孫怨嘆,所有台灣人團結站起來,相信台灣國,天公有保庇,一定有信心,信心激力量,力量推行動,行動達建國。祈求天公上帝,賜給臺灣人勇氣,賜給台灣人力量,幫助台灣人建國。在咱這代,決志落實台灣國最後一步。就從這隻船出發,台灣新生制憲,人民奮起建國,制憲建國,是台灣唯一活路。

RE: [GlobalForumIntl] 美國對台灣的新任務!

美國對台灣的新任務

二零零七年八月美國國務院聲明:「the Republic of China is an undecided issue」,如果將”undecided issue”翻譯或解讀成「未定之議題」,實在與原來美國政府的原意相差甚多,首先以英文解讀:an undecided issue =an unsettled dispute =a dispute to be settled 中華民國(ROC)不是一個有待論的「話題」,而是一個有待解決的「爭議」。ROC is not a “ topic ”to be discussed but a “ dispute “ to be settled.

在台灣的中國人聽到聲明後,都沾沾自喜,將之解讀成「美國認為中華民國尚未滅亡,其未來還有待討論決定。」這是一廂情願之自我解讀。其實美國政府真正的想法是:「在一個中國政策之下,國際間根本不存在一個自稱合法中國的中華民國」,美國要表達的是:依據上海公報內容,海峽兩岸的中國人都認為中國只有一個,雙方(台灣人在外)沒有爭議,也都主張台灣是中國之ㄧ部分,雙方(臺灣人在外)間也沒有爭議。然而,所謂的爭議issue就是在「誰才是中國?」雙方至今還在為「一中各表」爭論,各自稱自己才是中國,外交方面也互爭,稱自己是合法中國,儘管如此,國際上都認定中華人民共和國為中國,沒有爭議。流亡在台灣的中華民國自稱中國,是有爭議的,這些就是一個有待解決的爭議(undecided issue),「一個中國」認定的爭議。

太平洋戰後,美國國務卿萊斯對台灣的「管轄當局」提醒(remind):「美國與台灣還有關係」,因為,美國對台灣領土的戰後之戰爭責任並沒有結束,美國是法治國家,美國會「依法處理台灣」。台灣人已經依照戰爭法成立「台灣平民政府Taiwan civil government」,中國政府應該始料未及,美國軍事政府雖然尚未承認,這是屬於「政治問題」,美國政府與台灣平民政府間屬於何種層次之關係,尚未出現在「美中建交」公報之規範內,雖然現今有三個美中公報,美國政府和目前「台灣當局」也維繫某種關係往來,未來應該逐漸和台灣平民政府密切聯繫,流亡中華民國以美國軍事政府之代理人身分將會被停止,美國政府在台灣領土應有兩個新任務:
(一) 法理任務。代理美軍事政府負維和責任,並協助保證台灣平民政府的完全建立。
(二) 政治任務。擔任美國在西太平洋的前哨,牽制中國共產黨無限奴役世界人民的野心。

台灣領土和美國軍事政府之關係

""" 台灣領土和美國軍事政府之關係

美國高等(上訴)法院,即將在二零零九年二月五日召開【林志昇等控美政府案】言詞辯論,其中一項:「領土問題,是否為政治或法律問題?」

訴訟案中筆者曾引用:“status resulting from prior action”— 這裡的“status” 是指美國「主要佔領權國」。訴訟到今天為止,美國或法院都沒有提出異議,有關(一)在舊金山和約,美國對台灣是主要佔領權國。(二)從一九五二年到今天,沒有任何總統的行政命令、條約或法律,是改變美國對台灣主要佔領權國身份。而在台灣戰爭史上,發生的事實是:(一)一九四五年八月十五日日本無條件投降,在日本台灣領土上的軍隊,依盟軍最高統帥(SCAP)於九月二日頒布「一般命令第一號」,向盟軍代表蔣介石投降,中國軍隊也依照「戰爭期間協議(開羅與波次坦宣言)」,被分配佔領屬於日本四島外之海外領土台灣與澎湖,並且在當年十月二十五日至一九四七年五月十六日間,以「台灣省行政長官公署」名義軍管台灣;此後至一九四九年十二月六日間以「台灣省政府」名義,及至一九五二年四月二十七日(舊金山和約生效前),繼續執行「分配佔領」台灣領土。

中國政權(Chinese authority)以任何名義管轄台灣領土,都只是被美國軍事政府(USMG)所委託的性質。中國流亡以前,佔領台灣領土只是單純「中國軍事政府佔領」,然而,後來中國政府開始流亡,「雙重身份」混淆了台灣地位本來面目。

舊金山和約生效,日本依該約2b條放棄台灣領土主權(territorial right),美國是日本的「征服者conqueror」,依23條為Principal occupying power,有權利執行台灣領土佔領,是當然的「收受者」。

條約生效後,美國本來應自中國軍事政府手上取回佔領權,卻因共產黨赤化亞洲,政治考量沒有親自(as principal)來台執行佔領管轄,而是委託中國軍事政府和流亡中國就地代理(as agent)。

ㄧ九七九年台灣關係法,美國以「台灣當局the governing authority on Taiwan」取代「流亡中國」,美國仍然控管台灣,「流亡政府」依然是「代理」關係,「台灣平民政府」與美國之間,才會有「法理」關係,美國司法將會還原台灣地位真相,天佑台灣!

: "" 這個標題不是危言聳聽,而是前海牙「國際法院」法官小田滋(Shigeru Oda)兩年前所著《主權獨立國家的「台灣」——台灣在國際法中的地位》一書(台北國際文化基金會出版)的核心觀點。在馬政府全面親中,民進黨高層在台灣主權方向問題上舉棋不定,還有些綠營人士到美國打官司,要把台灣納入美國之際,實有必要重溫一下這位國際法專家對台灣前途的看法。

日本學者小田滋是資深的國際法專家,做過二十七年(連任三屆)聯合國「國際法院」法官(還曾任副院長),並曾任日本國際法協會會長。他對台灣的事務也很熟悉,早年曾隨祖父來台,在台灣長大並接受教育,和李登輝、辜寬敏、邱永漢等都是校友。他的這本書中,有三個觀點特別值得重視:

「台灣屬於中國」毫無法律根據

第一,他認為北京所謂「台灣是中華人民共和國的一部分」的說法,是毫無法律根據的政治幻想。這位法學專家指出,從任何國際法的觀點來看,「大陸與台灣都是兩個獨立主權國家。」之所以出現兩岸互不承認,和聯合國的五大常任理事國概念有關,因常任理事國的席位不能由兩國分享。而普通會員國,像當年的東西德和今天的南北韓都是普通成員,就可各享一個聯合國席位。當然首先,東西德、南北韓,都相互承認對方是政治實體。小田滋指出,聯合國當年決定由北京代表「中國」席位,絕對不是在「台灣是中華人民共和國的一部分」的前提下做成的;該決議只是解決中國代表權問題,沒有提到台灣(地位和前途)。「中華民國離開聯合國,但其實際上的主權國家地位毫無動搖。」因為國際法上的國家包括「土地、人民、政府」,或加上「外交能力」等要素。但有多少邦交國,不是關鍵因素。小田滋特別舉例說,日本和北韓就沒有外交關係,但這根本不能影響北韓是一個國家。今天,美國和古巴也沒有外交,但古巴仍是個國家,這都是常識。小田滋認為,今天台灣無法加入聯合國,不是因為台灣不是主權國家,而是因為北京阻止台灣做為主權國家擁有外交關係,各國基於對中國的現實考量,或恐懼北京而導致不敢承認台灣。說到底,這不是法律問題,而是專制中國在國際上封殺民主台灣的政治問題。

二戰結束時沒抓住獨立機會

第二,台灣必須通過制憲正名,成為正常國家。小田滋認為,從國際法角度,台灣和對岸的中國毫無隸屬關係,所以根本不存在台灣從中華人民共和國獨立的問題,只存在「台灣人從中華民國、國民黨獨立」的問題。他認為台灣的前途應該是通過制定一部新憲法,修改國號,使台灣成為一個正常的國家。他還提到,他和校友李登輝前總統見過面。李曾強調,「台灣無須從中華人民共和國獨立,原本就是獨立國家。」但這種說法只是解決了台灣和對岸中國的關係,而沒有解決台灣和中華民國的關係。李登輝後來提出的「兩國論」,仍是維持中華民國擁有台灣。

小田滋不無遺憾地指出,日本當年放棄台灣時,台灣建立一個「獨立的台灣國」並非不可能,但台灣沒有在國際上做此主張的卓越政治家,沒有印度的甘地那種領導者,而且很多台灣人還視國民黨抵台為「光復」,毫無抵抗地接受了當時法律上並不擁有台灣主權的中華民國。今天台灣的制憲正名、成為正常國家的進程,由於馬上台、國民黨全面親中而更加艱難,但只有「台灣從中華民國、國民黨獨立出來」的必要性被更多的民眾明白,深入人心(尤其是台灣的政治家),才會在有歷史機會時,變成事實。

把國民黨趕到金門馬祖

第三,國民黨強調「一個中國」是自欺不能欺人。小田滋以日本為例說,日語的「中國」這兩個字,和漢語的書寫一模一樣。原本的所謂「中國」是歷史、文化的概念,而不是國際法的概念。但隨著北京在聯合國獲得「中國」代表權,再加上近年其經濟和軍事崛起,不要說國際社會,即使台灣的近鄰,並對台灣好感的日本國民,也多認為「中國」是中華人民共和國,而不是台灣的中華民國。所以,無論馬政府再怎麼強調一個中國就是中華民國,不僅沒用,而且突出了「中國」,就等於突出了北京,矮化了台灣。因此小田滋提出「兩中一台」的構想:中華人民共和國統治大陸,中華民國遷到金門、馬祖;台灣人擁有台灣。這樣,國民黨回到法律意義上屬於中華民國的金門、馬祖,他們和北京的中國是喊「一中各表」,還是終極統一,都隨他們的便;讓台灣人擁有自己的土地和國家。

這個「兩中一台」的構想國民黨當然不可能同意,他們一定會死死地抱住台灣不放。但只要國民黨跟對岸的共產黨扯不清,台灣人的命運就等於掌握在對岸手裡;而只要台灣跟「中華民國」扯不清,「台灣」就不會見天日,只會被中國籠罩。所以,從中華民國和國民黨獨立出來才是綠營的方向。 ""
