Petition

Considering our Human Rights as stated in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (General Assembly resolution 217 A, 1948), in particular
Article 3
– “Everyone has the right to life, liberty and the security of person.”,

Article 9
– “No one shall be subjected to […] exile.”

Article 17.2
– “No one shall be arbitrarily deprived of his property.”,

Whereas war violates these human rights on large scale,

And considering that decision of war are regularly made by a small group of individuals, whereas We, the people have no voice in them,

We, the signers, petition the United Nation General Assembly to pass a Resolution requesting negotiations towards an international treaty to the effect that:

Every Nation shall adapt their laws in the following way: After any decision of its government or parliament to engage the Nation's military or other armed forces in military action abroad, the people of said Nation shall have the right to request a Referendum by collecting a reasonably small number of signatures within a reasonable time frame.  The military action shall be authorized only if in the Referendum a majority of people vote in support of it.
