I'm going to nitpick on two points:

I'm afraid that's not true. The case of Japanese-Americans confined to 
camps in WWII comes to mind; there might be others, too.

If this is true, and I am speaking now as a law student, this will be 
very likely the end of the United States. I don't think this would 
prosper. Even if this agreement is true, and even if the U.S. Executive 
Branch uses armed forces to enforce its enactment, it would most likely 
create two consequences:

1) Generalized revolt in the land. The treaty (because an agreement 
between two sovereign powers is a treaty) would run against the will of 
the people, which is the base of the U.S. Federal State; thus, it would 
be unbearably tyrannical and people would feel compelled to rebel 
against it. And there is a fundamental right to rebel against a 
tyrannical governments or laws, and it is recognized on most democratic 
constitutions of the world.

2) It would be very likely struck down. Either by a suit on the Court of 
Justice at The Hague, or because of pressure by other parties. Whatever 
their loyalties and interests might be, other countries would see that 
if this treaty is enacted it would create a far more dangerous and far 
more reaching precedent than they would be comfortable with. Therefore 
the international community would not allow such a thing.

Just my $.02
