Treaty & Ship Signals Analysis
A common misconception that the majority of Moors have is that the Treaty of Peace and Friendship has some sort of saving power to save us from the jurisdiction of our oppressors. It may have had some power when there were actual Moroccans living on North America during the beginning of European colonization. However, in modern times, it is merely symbolic of Morocco being the first nation to open its ports to the United States, recognizing the United States as a sovereign nation.
When the kingdom of Morocco was conquered by France in 1912, the Moroccan empire was no more. Spain came behind France to pick apart the rest of the empire. All of the territories that Morocco controlled were taken by France or Spain, or they were freed. The treaty still exists because the United States did not assist France or Spain in the overthrow of Morocco.
Legal Application & Case History
A thorough reading of the treaty will reveal that it makes a distinction between Moors and subjects of Morocco. It says that subjects of Morocco will be returned to Morocco. It does not say anything about the United States releasing any Moors. Anyone who has told you that they have used the Treaty of Peace and Friendship to have a court case dismissed, to free themselves or someone else is most likely lying to you. Ask them for the court records. There will always be a paper trail that they cannot produce. We have provided a copy of the treaty so you can read it for yourself.
For several decades, Moors have been attempting to enforce the Treaty of Peace and Friendship, to no avail. If the treaty worked like that or if we were Moroccans, we would have been free long long ago. Historical records on Sundry Free Moors demonstrate that the U.S. did not honor the treaty in that manner, and several Moroccans were enslaved despite the treaty's existence.
Today, even though the treaty remains unbroken, it stands as a symbol of historical recognition. Morocco does not recognize anyone here as a subject of Morocco; if they did, that individual could not remain in North America without appropriate visas.
As an example of how the courts view the treaty, examine the case of El Ameen Bey v. Stumpf. Federal courts have consistently determined that reliance on the Treaty of Peace and Friendship for jurisdictional immunity in domestic court proceedings is legally frivolous.
Proper legal understanding and true national proclamation establish authentic standing.
