| | | 26.05.2009 02:24:38 | | GLOBAL MIND CONTROL TYRANNY | – FAKE RELIGIONS, NEW AGE & CORPORATISTS SNATCHING BASIC NATURE
MNN. May 22, 2009. There are several types of mind control: cults, phony religions and off-the-wall therapies. A new world religion is being invented to force on everybody. It’s a mishmash of legitimate religious movements, new age psychobabble and a sprinkling of so-called traditional ideologies. We are all supposed to be drawn in to be controlled by a small group of cult leaders.
Their mission statement to the masses is that the end justifies the means to bring about universal peace, harmony and love. Psychological coercion through manufactured religion is part of setting up a worldwide totalitarian society.
At one time several elite factions fought each other to rule the world. Now they work together. The cultist leaders are secret, self-appointed, dogmatic, messianic and not democratically accountable. They want to whack everybody into enslavement. “The easier to control you, my dear!”
Is the 11th Century Inquisition being resurrected? This was a time when critics of the politicians controlled by the Catholic Church killed off millions who didn’t agree with them? Will the military brutalize objectors and those not devoted enough to these newly constructed universal beliefs? Where’s the holy land this time? Everywhere there’s oil and other valuable resources! www.gotquestions.org
Manitou Foundation in Colorado run by Maurice Strong uses cult principles to develop the new world religion and to implement it. These same maneuvers underlie the corporate world, campuses, religions, medical and other professions, prisons and advertising campaigns. President Obama’s speech writers use these same tactics all the time.
Crafters of mental tyranny go after the upper crust who become the mainstay of their hierarchy. They are indoctrinated into the new plan through powerful secret societies in ivy league universities. They are trained to run the new world order and the global mind control needed to sustain it. To keep their loyalty, cult leaders get something on each, usually of a sexual or more unsavory nature.
Worldwide we are being weakened by depravation, wars, diseases and various fears. We are deliberately being made vulnerable, confused, anxious, depressed and hurt to ripen us for the new world religion.
New world religions are narcissistic, quasi-therapeutic and eastern oriented. Strategies are humility and public confession to lower self-esteem; threats and guilt; no thinking; and critics are accused of siding with the devil. Some start hallucinating about having contact with extra terrestrials who give them orders.
Some manipulation techniques are love bombing which is giving love and then sudden disapproval, contradictions and verbal abuse. The altered state is brought on by hypnosis, trances, prolonged chanting, deprivation of privacy, sense of time, food and sleep. Other tactics to force conformity are overly strict rules, guilt, fear, no questions and tight rules on living, dressing, information, music, reading and the internet. Some cult leaders have sex with anyone, male, female or child, within their orbit under their control.
Individual reasoning powers have to be weakened so we can be broken down physically and mentally to become highly vulnerable to suggestions. It takes 3 days to two weeks to bring draftees into line. We are supposed to go through a sudden drastic personality change called “snapping”. We will have difficulty reasoning, choosing or criticizing. The new world religion steps in and interprets our reality and reason for living. Then we can be put into intense robotic group thinks and then told what to do.
Followers who are no longer valuable are thrown to the wolves. Those wanting to leave will be threatened. The successful walkaways will have to hide. They will be hunted down, ostracized and disappeared for having too much inside information. They will suffer from withdrawal such as confusion, depression, disorientation, insomnia, amnesia, suicidal tendencies and violent emotional outbursts.
We are seen as human livestock that belong to the few. The whole world is their farm, with electronic dog collars and brain chips called licenses. Schools are training children to love the farm. The leaders don’t want us to be free who can manage our own lives. Today’s brutality is staged for us to get used to the idea that we must conform or else!
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. The new world religion promises faith, safety and prosperity. They are pyramid authoritarian regimes, using deception to recruit and maintain themselves. Since we are half starved, blinded and abused, we are being forced into having no choice but to embrace it.
Who will try and convict those opposed to this new dogma? It could be a charismatic leader that everybody will have to bow down to. It will be a universal concoction staffed by priests or faith keepers of the new world order. Their job will be to seduce, terrify and wean us away from our real custodial relationship with the natural world and each other. Those questioning their newly formed orthodox doctrines will be tortured. Concentration camps will hold critics before they are shipped to parts of the world with grotesque punishments and no human or civil rights.
The Iroquois Confederacy could be deemed as terrorists for our efforts to assert our inherent sovereignty. Since everybody will unilaterally become an international person, we could be taken to The Hague and charged with war crimes. We’re being brainwashed into becoming universal humans for their ends. Wiretaps, surveillance and imprisonment will be justified under new international security laws.
Unethical double standards have to be pointed out. Deprogramming requires critical thinking, seeing the contradictions and twisted ideology. Self-reflection and will power break down the control pyramid. We need truthful information so we can clear our minds of the big lies that have been constantly fed to us worldwide. We have to relearn how to think and control our will. Group consensus gives each a voice to fully discuss issues before making a decision. Tight family relationships keep us from being isolated and victimized.
Sending us to the Gulag [Stalin’s Soviet prison] is an old threat. We ask too many questions. They think they have to control our minds. The supposed world rulers of the masses will call their critics crazy and paranoid. Watch out for anyone who calls up your friends and tells them you have had a mental breakdown!

| | | 12.05.2009 12:44:22 | | LET THEM EAT CAKE, SAID MARIE ANTOINETTE | TRUE BELIEVERS & MASS MOVEMENTS
MNN. May 8, 2009. As African songwriter, Bob Marley, told us in effect: “If you don’t know where you are coming from, how can you know where you are going to?” The early l950s and l960s writers explored mass consciousness, mass movements and fanaticism. Marshall McLuhan worried that the media and advertising would take advantage of mass consciousness. He thought the “global village” would bring humanity’s tribal memory under the electronic control of a single consciousness. He thought that individuals could be manipulated, exploited and controlled in a group. [1964 http://www.leaderu.com ]. How right he was.
Eric Hoffer wrote in the “True Believer”, 1951, that mass movements can be created to serve the evil purposes of a few. People could be recruited, particularly the fanatical, driven, unreasonable, those convinced of their rightness, infallibility and inevitability of their cause. To draw them in, the lives of the poor, misfits, outcasts, adolescents, selfish, bored and seekers of redemption have to be made miserable, insecure and hopeless. http://www.mekong.net/hoffer.htm ] With the collapse of the economy and social programs, people are overcome with insecurity and uncertainty. They are seeking substitutes and made ripe for the picking.
Along comes an opportunistic charismatic leader or figurehead who has all the answers. He promises refuge from their anxieties and meaningless lives. He will free them from their worthless selves to become the masters of the human race. Hitler told the Germans, “If you follow me, you are going to control the world for a thousand years”. They are convinced that they are a mighty people. They know, when they are broken down, they are meek and frightened individuals.
The charismatic tells them to look over the horizon to a glorious future, not at the present. In today’s pyramid sales schemes only the top guy makes all the money. Those below do all the work and make a pittance. Eventually they burn out.
A mass movement needs men of words, the fanatics and the practical men of action. After a while the fanatic keeps groping for extremes which is provided by the leader[s].
He subconsciously or directly tells people their lives today are dire and they have no future. People don’t really want to be free because this means taking responsibility. They want to hand their fate over to some other ephemeral entity that has taken over their lives. A mass movement gives them an excuse to hate, bully, torture, murder and betray without shame and remorse. They accept a big brother who watches everything they do. It’s as though they are marching towards some mythical goal like Dorothy who was seeking to find the Wizard of Oz. She found out he was a deceiving imp mouthing great words through a loudspeaker.
They will be freed from the created meaninglessness of their lives. Their short comings and self condemnation is transferred onto hatred of others by doing grave injustices against them. They have to infect themselves with hate toward an identifiable group of people by hurting them. The masses are brought together to direct their anger at one scapegoat. It’s like a school of sharks who smell blood, or a group of hyenas who surround their prey. Tormenting people satisfies their blood lust. They feel reassured when they see our downfall.
An enemy is created as a scapegoat. Unifying agents are hatred, imitation, persuasion, coercion, action, suspicion and intolerance to dissent. It suppresses their inadequacy, worthlessness, guilt and other shortcomings. Their self-contempt, helplessness and cowardice are taken out on others. They are driven by feelings of personal inadequacy, a desire to tear down others or to rise into higher levels of the totalitarian hierarchy.
Presently there seems to be a campaign to attack the “guardians of the eastern door” of Great Turtle Island, the Mohawks. There is an invasion by these forces of European-spawned fanatical movements. We, the flint people, are the first to meet this onslaught. Our way of dealing with these forces is by calm, reasonable and analytical weighing of all issues before arriving at a consensual democratic decision over the council fire of the Rotino’shonni:onwe, Iroquois.
In the new world order, the people will become like little mice running on a treadmill to nowhere. The war lords are gaining control through consolidation of politics, commerce, military, police, media and colonial agents of change such as new age psychobabble movements. This mishmash of beliefs catches people who are insecure in their ideas and identity.
When the French got fed up with the gluttony and brutality of their aristocracy and royalty, they killed them. Then a dictator came in, Napoleon. The people handed themselves over to him.
Motivations for mass movements are interchangeable: religious, nationalist and class-based. They use the same tactics: sacrifice themselves and others for the future goals; devalue the past and present; and escape by creating an imaginary self and joining a movement.
Cynical mass movements around the world are based on secret plans by a select group of elites based on lies and threats. By the time the people find out, it’s too late. They have been destroyed or taken over. They are dispossessed and made to feel they have no hope unless they follow the leader who is taking them to a destiny of destruction or enslavement.
Hoffer says that after a fanatic destroys his enemies, he makes enemies of his cohorts. The problem with hatred is that the participants lose those values they at one time set out to defend.
The true believer can be dangerous and deadly, especially when they have nothing to lose. The only way to defeat the true believer of a false cause is to tell the truth about how deceived they are.

| | | 27.04.2009 14:15:06 | | BEEN THERE! DONE THAT! | MNN. April 25, 2009. The Federal Emergency Management Agency FEMA has established facilities that look very much like concentration camps across the U.S. [YouTube: FEMA Concentration Camps in USA]. In Georgia half a million plastic coffins were discovered in a fenced area near an airport. [www.infowars.com]. We speculate that similar camps are being set up in other parts of the world. They are being called “shelters”. This could be part of an old tactic that was used to wipe out over 100 million Indigenous people of the Western Hemisphere.
Our People were murdered, diseased, our food was destroyed and we had no place to live. After 99% of us died off, forts, missions and then reservations were set up to house the survivors. Up to recent times we could not leave our lockups without a pass. We were supposed to become subservient and to accept whatever was meted out to us.
Our children were taken from us and put into residential and boarding schools to be “educated”. Many were corrupted by perverts and pedophiles or disappeared. The goal was to break our tie with the natural world, each other and our love for humanity. These are the forces that are necessary to create true democracy.
The corporatist war lords today want to own the globe and control everything on it without resistance from anyone. Because Indigenous put nature first, someone decided that we had to be sacrificed. Most of us are forced to live in conditions of extreme poverty which is ignored by the world.
Remember that lockup in the New Orleans arena during Hurricane Katrina? Troops, cops and Blackwater confiscated legal weapons of the victims and shot people. Many were robbed and attacked. Some died due to lack of oxygen, sanitation and chaos. Roads were blocked. They could not escape. Presently droughts, unemployment, homelessness and a destroyed middle class could be slated for these centers. Before martial law is declared dissenters will be rounded up first. Afterwards the rest will be brought in and divided up into laborers and slaves. Those not useful will be “pushed aside”. Today we are afraid of these shelters. Internet survival sites warn us to avoid them.
A small close knit group of about 1 per cent of the population plans to put in place and run a totalitarian dictatorship over the rest of us. Their enforcers are trained to kill or maim people without batting an eyelash. For the last 50 years this secret clique has been stealthily infiltrating institutions and agencies such as the government, police, military, commerce, medical, media and now the internet.
The sickening compliant United Nations will oversee global military power. These days hired mercenaries outnumber the soldiers, such as in Iraq and Afghanistan. Wars are being privatized using high tech well-equipped hired guns to do most of the fighting. The International Monetary Fund and World Bank will control the global markets and currencies. Soon they may conjure up a reason to declare martial law.
Incarcerations and killings will be at the discretion of the corporatist war lords. How about these new sicknesses that combine bird, pig and human viruses? The researchers who might have combined them say they are baffled. There are suspicions that this could be a targeted bacteria. Will the cures be available to everyone or only to the rich or citizens of certain states? Or are the “antidotes” meant to kill certain others? Is it meant to contain our movements? The old biological warfare tactic has been brought out of the time capsule.
Neglecting the poor is a sign of corporate fascism. “Why should I share?” yell U.S. citizens. This is becoming an accepted form of conduct. Self-centered and dishonest people want to eliminate those they decide are the refuse of society. Henry Kissinger, an advisor to President Obama, calls them “useless eaters”. [www.population-security.org]. Henry, your ancestors were almost wiped out by a man [Adolph Hitler] who was preaching exactly what you are saying. Remember, those who seek power think they can work with these kinds of war mongers and remain safe. In the end, these fascists have been known to turn on their stooges and push them into the very cells and ovens they created together.
We Indigenous have the trump card! The Rotino’shonni:onwe, Iroquois Confederacy, developed the Kaianereh’ko:wa, the Great Law of Peace, a true democracy, on Onowaregeh, Great Turtle Island. It was based on real equality, sharing and everyone having a voice. The whole world must equally benefit from the fruits of the earth.
Atotarho, the chairman of the Iroquois Confederacy, has no power. The power is in the people. The leaders must listen to the people. Equality is between the strong and the small, the rich and poor. Larger nations cannot usurp power from smaller nations. Little nations have more voice than the larger.
A private brotherhood of corporatists are going throughout the world to “acquire” everybody else’s resources and rights and to set up controls. The U.S. and the monstrous UN bastardized our ideas. The few demagogues twisted concepts that are good for humanity so they could enslave the many. The U.S. president has now federalized and centralized power. The Senate is supporting it and Congress has no say. The people have no voice.
We Indigenous have the moral authority over Great Turtle Island and the world. The Great Law is meant to bring harmony to the world. The U.S. and UN were supposed to spread the Great Law. Instead they have become victims of tyrants where everything is geared towards a military solution. The corporatists may have usurped the political and economic power over our territories. According to natural law, we Indigenous Peoples have the moral authority. We are warning the world that at this time Reason must prevail.

| | | 20.04.2009 04:44:43 | | TOP BEASTS COME OUT OF LAIR | TO PUSH CYBERSECURITY ACT 2009 – Full Court Press time!
MNN. Apr. 18, 2009. The Europeans and their U.S. cohorts want to set up a European style overly inbred ruling aristocracy on Great Turtle Island. This will never happen. It doesn’t fit into our natural mind set or that of the average person.
What’s happening? When a basketball team wants to win a game, a full defense is put into play. The opposing team puts full pressure on every opposing player in man-to-man play. They intimidate, shadow, block and keep their opponent preoccupied so they can’t pass the ball. It is tiring and aggressive, meant to get control, confuse, to get the ball and then try to score.
The colonists’ think tanks have decided to use a full court press tactic to put pressure on the Kanion’ke:haka, Mohawk. They concluded in effect that, “They’re in our way. They have laws and rights. They won’t give up anything. Let’s [illegally] legislate them out of existence, silence their spokespeople and tear down their economy. We can’t let them stir up the blood covenants between them which are sealed by burning tobacco. Let’s get rid of the tobacco. We can’t let their smoke signals permeate Great Turtle Island or the rest of the world”.
The public sees these strange attacks on us. Like us, they want to live in a democracy where everyone is equal and has a voice. The corporatists try to reduce people and other living organisms to the deadness of the dollar. Genuine people do not want to live in a totalitarian system where corporatists try to take over the internet, our lives, our economy and our future. They get high thinking they have the right to decide whether we live or die.
The process of genocide and enslavement is not going fast enough for these thugs. They are going after anyone they think is telling the truth to the world on the internet. Obama was handpicked by the corporatists known as the Atlantic Conglomerate. The corporate propaganda rags are falling like dominoes.
Inventing unsubstantiated fear, Obama is trying to pass a cybersecurity bill to, “protect our critical infra structure at all costs, from our water to our electricity, banks, traffic, electronic health records, the list goes on”. It’s a dictatorship to protect commerce and control people. The president declares the emergency. Privacy laws will be violated so they can get all our information without cause or warrants. The White House is appointing a Cyber Czar to put their fingers over our eyes to create ignorant masses. It will be run mostly by “Fusion Centers” made up of military, FBI and CIA. Anybody who criticizes the government is called a right wing extremist. Our only source of information will be their corporate media. The YouTube has already been censored.
Why the hurry? The Iraq veterans are returning, asking questions and need jobs. For the “Order out of chaos” program, chaos is needed to bring in their “order”.
Bills 773 and 778 were introduced by Senator John D. Rockefeller IV. The Rockefellers made their first fortune through Standard Oil of New Jersey by stealing our natural resources. Then they set up the Chase Manhattan Bank. A conglomerate of all banks in the world was formed to create money out of thin air. In collusion with the European bankers, the private Federal Reserve System was set up to print money. With nothing to back it up, the debt system is collapsing on itself. Property values are falling to almost nothing. The money barons are buying up all the real estate. When the recession is over, they hope to become the great slum landlords.
The great natural power made us Indigenous of Great Turtle Island of one blood and of the same soil. Only different tongues constitute different nations with different hunting grounds and territories. Each nation has its own Council Fires, which have never been quenched. We agreed to govern our affairs by the Great Peace.
We Rotinoshonnionwe, Iroquois, have the duty to be ever on the alert to dangers in the eastern half of Great Turtle Island. We stood strong during the original onslaught of the Europeans that was promoted by their brutal feudal slave masters. We remain vigilant today as we climb to the top of the buildings and bridges built with help of our men. They look over the horizon for any dangers that are coming. We have the duty to call all our people together beneath the Tree of the Great Peace and say: “A calamity threatens your happiness”. The people shall convene and discuss the impending evil.
We must spread the Great Peace by using reason. Should any try to destroy the Great Peace, we will be forced to call them the enemies of the people and of the Great Peace. The Ahserakowa and his men shall warn them that they must live according to the Great Peace or leave.
The Mohawks were the first to accept the Great Law. We helped the founder, Deganawida, gather the other nations together. The invaders had to stop the spread of the Great Law of Peace in order to take over Great Turtle Island. They were unsuccessful. We settled in strategic areas of our territory, throughout the north and south of the St. Lawrence and Great Lakes waterways and along the eastern seaboard. We were some of the first negotiators to face the invaders. We told them this territory is ours and cannot ever be given up. Many campaigns were launched to annihilate us. We continue to be the caretakers of Great Turtle Island.
Haudenosaunee territory is one of the biggest power bases in the world. Wall Street is the world financial center, the Pentagon is the military center, West Point on the Hudson River trains war mongers and the UN is the international department of Indian Affairs. The UN is in a Rockefeller owned building and their bank handles their account. The “liberal eastern establishment” and their designated world leaders go to ivy league universities like Harvard, Yale and Princeton. Their secret organizations like the “skull and bones” pledge to rule the world.
The Kanionkehaka, Mohawks, continue to be the “keepers of the eastern door”. We are “the people of the flint” because we have a flint-like resistance. We have the duty to go to the top of the Tree of Peace and yell out to the world that there is danger coming to the entire earth perpetrated by colonial institutions located on our territory.
We built bridges and tall buildings as a barrier to those wanting to take over Great Turtle Island. The guns of the multi national banksters are aimed at us. They will never destroy us. They will never drive us from taking care of Great Turtle Island. This is the reason for our existence.

| | | 16.04.2009 17:19:51 | | OBAMA SAID, “THE LINES OF TRIBES SHALL BE DISSOLVED”. | A DECLARATION OF WAR?
MNN. Apr. 15, 2009. Rahnatakias, “the village destroyer”, as the U.S. Presidency is called, in his inaugural speech said, “the lines of tribes shall be dissolved”. He is referring to the extensive covenants between indigenous nations on Great Turtle Island. The bankster thugs want to get the rightful custodians out of their way.
Our powerful ancient covenants make us of one blood and inseparable. Each party has to look out for the interests of the others. These are enduring compacts between friends, family and nation. We symbolically intermingle our blood witnessed by Kasatstensera kowa sa oiera, the great natural power. The tie cannot be dissolved. The original plan was to unite all indigenous nations. Over 200 nations joined this covenant.
Obama, an African, understands covenant relationships between ‘tribes’. He is going to try to shatter the ties that bind our people on Great Turtle Island. Nobody has been able to do that for 400 years. Several approaches are being used. One is the PBS series of five so-called history films called “We shall remain” that started on April 12, 2009 [ www.pbs.org/wgbh/amex/weshallremain/ ]. We are portrayed as losers.
To advertise the series the symbol of defeat is a falling tipi with the stars and stripes flag falling over it. Another strategy is to wipe out Indigenous people altogether to be replaced by surrogate “Indians” who will work more closely to help the foreign invaders fulfill their goals.
Obama is also using gangster style extortion from tobacco farmers to stop us from trading and sustaining our families and communities. According to his new law, he wants his cut first. Most of these covenants were made with the exchange and burning of tobacco, which were signaled to all parts of Great Turtle Island. The colonists desecrated the use of tobacco by turning it into a habit-forming commercial product.
In the “It’s No Use” series, the Wampanoags, are the “people of the first light”. Massassoit knew when he made agreements with the invaders that he represented the interests of all Indigenous. In film two Tecumseh tries to invoke the covenant relationships with other nations to defend Great Turtle Island. The third is about the Trail of Tears. The fourth is about the great Apache Warrior, Geronimo, who was caught by the U.S. army when his family was held hostage. Wounded Knee is about the American Indian Movement’s stand at Wounded Knee. They are all downers!
The son of Massassoit organized resistance and started to attack the villages of the foreigners. They say the Mohawk showed up as friends of the British and attacked the Narragansetts. We are allies, not puppets of the colonists. At the time the confederacy controlled all the waterways. The Mohawks were the brokers. The Europeans could not profit as before. We are portrayed as double crossers of our own people. These deceptive messages are sponsored by multinational corporations like George S. & Delores Eccles Foundation, gseg@gseccles.org; Lawrence & Janet T. Dee Foundation www.kued.org; Utah State Office of Education www. Utah.edu; and WGBH www.wgbh.org 801-581-7777.
The dishonest message is that we have nothing left and that foreigners defeated us despite our covenants. While foreigners were making covenants with us they were planning to kill us off. There is a curse upon those who break such solemn promises.
Foreigners appointed submissive members of our people to sign illegal agreements with them. We never and cannot ever surrender our territories. Now colonists are creating surrogates into covenant people who will be docile domesticated Indians. No one can create us except an Indigenous woman.
The foreigners killed off 115 million of us in the biggest holocaust in all humanity. Now they’ve come up with a new trick. Obama and his backers want to create surrogate Indigenous people who resemble Iroquois, Algonquin, Lakota, Navajo and so on. They may look like us, learn to act like us but they can never think like us.
It’s about going red to get the greenbacks! Canada created Algonquins by signing up non-natives in a program headed by [Mother] Joan Holmes and the Department of Indian Affairs. These “No’gonquins” are set up to fraudulently sign away vast areas of Haudenosaunee, Iroquois, territory. Their backers and lobbyists promise these “No’hawks” casinos and a few dollars.
In another swindle the Congress of Aboriginal People CAP Patrick Brazeau is signing up enough settlers to become “Metis” to outnumber the real Indigenous. Some native people are being roped into this confidence game. In a recent Kanehsatake Mohawk election, Mother Joan signed up hundreds of secret non-Indians who voted by proxy to put in the colonial nominee as chief. Prime Minister Stephen Harper appointed Brazeau to “sleep it off” in the Senate as a reward for setting up this CAP scam.
Everything comes down to bloodlines. When Hitler was going to kill off the Jews, he listed those with as little as one/thirty-second Jewish blood for annihilation. Then the Kazars of Eastern Europe who were Zionists helped set up the state of Israel in the Middle East.
According to the Great Law of Peace the lineal descent of the people shall run in the female line. The clan mothers are the keepers of the authorized names [not the colonial governmental entities] and holders of the land.
The soil of the earth from one end to the other is that of the people who inhabit it since time immemorial. We Ongwehonwe are the caretakers of the soil. As Louis Karonhiaktajeh Hall said, “The so-called “conquest of America” is a bare-faced robbery of Indigenous territory”. No race of foreign people has a right to invade and kill other races. They cannot try to control, interfere with or injure the people or disregard the Great Peace.
They have not broken our spirit. In the beginning the Europeans joined us. Those who came across the great salt water could never become Indigenous. They could remain on their ship with their ways.
Obama passed a law unto himself that before tobacco is shipped from the plantations in the Carolinas to Indigenous communities, he must be paid up front. It’s like the 1940s and 1950s when everyone was on the take. Businesses had to pay protection money to keep off strong arm enforcers. If they did not, their premises could get damaged or they or their relatives might get hurt or even killed. During prohibition everyone had to grease their palms. Then the people had enough and rebelled.
Capitalism is falsely called a “free market” system. Actually it is a monopoly of big business and government with control from England. Big Tobacco has to pay billions in fines to Canada for their former smuggling operations. None went to jail. They want no competition from us. Yes, the reptiles are slithering in the grass!

| | | 13.04.2009 01:08:03 | | LIKE TAMIL TIGERS, IROQUOIS EXISTENCE THREATENED | – COLONIAL POWERS TRYING TO EXERCISE SURROGATE AUTHORITY OVER ARCTIC
MNN. Apr. 11, 2009. The self-obscured power brokers of the world have designated certain people for extinction. Their skills are being honed for use on other targets. The Tamil Tigers were brought from India to Sri Lanka by the British to be slave labor on their plantations. In 1948 the British, Dutch and Portuguese colonist were kicked out. The majority Sinhalese passed anti-Tamil laws. The U.S., supported by the United Nations, declared the Tamils as a “terrorist organization”. No one in the world is allowed to help them with food, medical aid, housing, funds and any human rights they are entitled to according to international law. Supporters can be criminalized. Their money and assets can be confiscated. The Tamils have been bombed and murdered. Approximately 64,000 have been killed and 1 million displaced as of May 2006. If they are not killed off, they will be starved to death. [http://www.bbc.co.uk]
The Mohawk Rotiskenreketeh have been listed as “insurgents” in the training manual of the Canada Department of Defense [2007]. The Mohawk Warriors are listed as “a terrorist threat to the U.S.” [www.globalsecurity.org]. We are being propagandized in the media day after day as dangerous criminals by the misnamed “Center for Public Integrity” of Washington DC. Soon anyone associated with us may be targeted, charged and have their assets seized.
We are targeted because the true authority on Great Turtle Island is the inherent system of the Indigenous peoples. To exercise true power, foreigners must eliminate the legitimate authority. Otherwise, they can never put their roots into our land and legally take our possessions. In 1995 international scientists of the U.S. Human Genome Organization HUGO stealthily collected DNA from over 700 Indigenous groups all over the world [www.nativeweb.org/pages/legal/gene]. The power gangsters had to know who are the true Indigenous authorities over various areas of the world that they covet. We have been categorized and now we are being isolated for genocide.
Our trade and commerce are being destroyed. Our youth are being targeted, arrested, jailed and given criminal records and huge fines with no hope of ever paying them in two lifetimes. Toxic waste is being dropped near our communities. We are being forced to live in 3rd world conditions to cut down our birthrate and longevity. Our children are being “disappeared”.
In June 2008 the subversive Bilderberg group met in Ottawa. The attendees slithered into town. It included 130 European royalty, national leaders, banksters, political, military and economic power brokers and heads of multi national corporations. Hilary Clinton and Barack Obama slinked in through the garage door. [http://www.theglobeandmail.com/servlet/story/RTGAM.20060608.wbilder0608/BNStory/National/home] Decisions were made. Obama became the president of the United States. Extinction of Indigenous peoples has been expedited. It looks like the UN has been rigged to help with this process. A new global government is in the works, giving themselves legislative powers to supersede the sovereign nations of the world. Obama warned us in his inaugural speech that, “..the lines of tribes shall be dissolved”. His plans are very clear to us!
They will never get rid of us. We Rotinoshonnionwe are deemed dangerous to them because we constantly raise the indigenous sovereignty issue. They can’t legally murder us outright like they did in the past. We are being systematically demonized by international propagandists to set us up for the kill. Laws are passed to make it look legal to throw us in jail, torture us, kill us, starve us, attack us and do whatever is necessary to take us out. Hard as they’ve tried, they couldn’t kill us all off. We are the legitimate people of the land! There is a protection over us. We keep resisting their laws. They are foreigners who have no right to make laws here.
Russia is trying to illegally claim northern Great Turtle Island by exercising false surrogate powers. They want the oil, resources and the new shipping channels. They say this is not part of the colony of Canada. They have been flying MIGs and sending ships to the Arctic to intimidate Canada. In fact, only the Inuit are the legitimate sovereigns of this territory. Colonial powers such as Canada, Russia, U.S. and Denmark cannot claim it even though they are fighting over our land amongst themselves.
Canada knows the power of our authority. Canada is squatting on our land. Prime Minister Harper erroneously claims that the Russians are violating “Canadian sovereignty”. They know they have to display the Inuit as the Indigenous people of the area by parading them around as the legal occupants. Harper claims, “The Inuit are Canadian citizens who have lived there for thousands of years!!!” How’s that? The colony of Canada was formed in 1867!! Canada fears asking the U.S. for help as they think they would just take it over. At the same time, Canada has slated those of us who are in the way of their greed to be extinguished.
In 1954 Canada and U.S. built the Distant Early Warning [DEW] radar stations in the far north to detect Soviet attacks. It became the NORAD air defense. [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distant_Early_Warning_Line]. To maintain the presence of the Inuit in the area, Canada created subsidized communities so they will stay there. The Inuit could not live there because of the destruction of the land, flora, fauna and animals. Many Inuit perished.
Harper is presently inviting his international cohorts to invest in our unsurrendered territories and resources. He is putting up our possessions as collateral to raise money from the ignorant global public. This corruption is a massive fraud. Indigenous people worldwide are resisting this genocidal usurpation that has been going on for centuries. So that it will no longer be theft, politicians and business people must now legally and fairly recognize they have no choice but to deal with Indigenous people everywhere in the world. We must be respected, not terminated.
We are being demonized to cut us off from any economic means of survival. They are trying to destroy any defense we might have from the scourge of those colonists whose greed knows no bounds. Over ten articles denouncing us have been published in the local rag known as the Montreal Gazette, instigated by the Center for Public Integrity. We hear the Gazette is going out of business soon. Yeah!! The Center serves Big Tobacco, which is headquartered in London England, who don’t want any competition from Indigenous people. The Center pretends to be against smoking while it attacks us. It is supported by foundations such as Carnegie, Ford, JEHT, John D. and Catharine T. MacArthur, Park, Rockefeller and PIERS.
We will always exercise our right to remain as the caretakers of Great Turtle Island and for the right to survive. Our responsibilities cannot be ignored. Putting us on the “hit list” will not stop us from carrying out our duties.
Moreover, we are considered threatening because we developed the true democracy where everyone is equal and has a voice [Kaianereh’ko:wa, Great Law of Peace]. This gets in the way of those dictators who are setting up global totalitarianism. Are these fascists trying to kill off the originators of true freedom, democracy, environmentalism and human rights? There is no doubt they will be foiled again!

| | | 02.04.2009 17:15:00 | | “OPERATIVE” JOURNALISTS TRYING TO SET UP INDIGENOUS PEOPLE FOR ATTACK? | MNN. April 1, 2009. The colonies of U.S. and Canada know we, the Rotinoshonnionwe, have a birthright to conduct trade and commerce on our homeland, Onowaregeh, Great Turtle Island. State and Federal authorities cannot legally stop us except by coercion, breaking laws, criminalizing and threatening us. We are peaceful, law abiding and take care of our families and communities. The misnomer Center for Public Integrity out of Washington DC has been putting out propaganda to produce racial hatred against us.
“Serial warfare” uses the media to set up the target for the attack. “Investigative journalists” seek the truth. “Operative journalists” use deceit, misinformation, destruction, psychological attacks and exaggeration on their “mark”. They create suspicion and biases against us by falsely connecting us to “guns”, “contraband”, “drugs”, “organized crime”, “smuggling” and “global terrorism”, to set the stage for an attack by U.S. and Canadian occupational forces, both military and corporate.
We are being criminalized by the foreigners for something that is not a crime. We have a right to trade and commerce. Tobacco is our product which we create on our homeland.
No violence is associated with any of our legitimate businesses. The only violence is that perpetrated on us by foreign cops and outside interests. No one supports those few business people who may be involved in drugs, similar to the U.S. government that was trading drugs for guns in the Iran-Contra affair, or the CIA releasing drugs in East LA [GaryWebb: Dark Alliance]. The colonists constantly criminalize almost anything we do that would make us independent. We have tried to play by the rules. The government raised the taxes and demands so high to try to control us that we could not sustain our businesses.
If most U.S. and Canadian businesses were criminalized or taxed too high to be viable, they may be forced to break their own laws to survive. The state has been trying to determine that the Mohawk People are “insurgents” to remove any human rights protections we have according to international law.
We would never carry out criminal economic enterprises like Bernie Madoff, AIG, Wall Street bankers and all the other corrupt scrum bags who have created the worldwide melt down. These are the kinds of interests that are coming after us.
The “operative media” plays a major role. Mainstream papers are losing circulation, influence and advertising. Many like the Montreal Gazette have become cheap sensation seeking rags. They divert the public from their own dire situations by ganging up on the “Indians”, a target they think can’t defend themselves.
The Center for Public Integrity is a propagandist of racial hatred which is a precursor to genocide. They criminalize and slander us for whoever hired them to set us up for the kill. This group of media whores may be lobbying for Big Tobacco and the foundations that fund them. They are "generously" funded by the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health. NYC Mayor and billionaire, Michael Bloomberg, constantly condemns "Indians" and tobacco and hires journalistic “hit men” to assassinate both. Other donators are the Carnegie Corporation of New York, Ford Foundation, JEHT Foundation, John D. and Catharine T. MacArthur Foundation, Park Foundation, Rockefeller Foundation and PIERS Port Import Export Reporting Services.
Their propaganda does not mention that the police forces are involved in stealing our products and money such as the Ontario Provincial Police, Surete du Quebec, RCMP, NYS Troopers, U.S. and Canada Customs Border Patrol, Cornwall, Montreal and other city cops. They hijack our products and then sell them to their own customers. This is known as the silent “blue market”. Many of our people don’t get a summons to go to court to reclaim our possessions. We sometimes find our vehicles in the parking lots of various donut shops.
Big Tobacco companies such as Rothman’s, Imperial and RJ Reynolds are headquartered in Britain. They don’t want any competition or for Indigenous to profit from trade in our own products. They want to be the only game in town, make the rules for everybody and call in the military on some made up pretext.
Tobacco is legal. The fear is that the profits are being invested in our youth, families and communities which will make us stronger. Onowaregeh, Great Turtle Island, is the richest territory in the world. The invaders want to keep us as the poorest. If we had a real share of our own resources, we would not have to resort to what they call the “underground economy”. We are not afraid to work in the light of day because we aren’t criminals.
This is not about lost revenue or health care expenses in the U.S. and Canada. It’s about loss of control over this aspect of our lives. The “extortion” they are crying over is chump change compared to the trillions of dollars they are stealing from us.
Yes, we have organized crime in our communities called “Indian Affairs” and other colonial agencies. Non-native business people and the colonial state, with the help of their “Indian” mules, use the protection of the colonial Indian Act and Federal Indian law “band” and “tribal” recognition to make money. They help build casinos and other developments on our lands from which we do not benefit or control. The “kingpins” are all on the outside. We’re left with trying to clean up their mess! [MNN “Canada & Big Tobacco..” 2/6/09].
Big Tobacco and their global cohorts want everybody in the world to be under their thumb or otherwise eliminated. They are trying to corner us and cut us off from any means to survive. The streets of Kahnawake, Akwesasne, Kanehsatake, Cattaraugus and Tuscarora are safer than any street in Montreal, New York, Buffalo or Washington, D.C. This fear mongering hyperbole by the journalistic “guns for hire” of the multinationals and their colonial agents means we better get ready to defend ourselves. A big attack by the combined forces of the U.S. and Canada may be coming our way soon!

| | | 11.01.2009 16:30:03 | | “HOOF LADIES” CHASING INDIGENOUS YOUTH: | THE COLONIAL STATE’S OLD SEXUAL PERVERSION STRATEGY MNN. Jan. 10, 2008. There is an old Haudenosaunee story about the “Hoof Lady”. She appears to our youth in various guises to stop them from doing wrong. She also appears in order to test them. For example, when our young people are hiding in the bush drinking alcohol, an ugly apparition appears. When they notice her hoofs and her scary gestures, they are terrified and run away. She could also entice them to do bad things by appearing in other human forms, both male and female. They could be blond, redhead or brunette to lure our youth! This “shape shifter” is usually an outside unfamiliar person who could show up at times when OUR minds are weak and vulnerable and we don’t notice her hoofs. The “come-on” might be visual beauty or “other attractions”. The decoy could lead them to do something unnatural because they think no one is watching. In the end the Hoof Lady can grab control of them. Eventually some of them have been induced to go against their people.
There is no mystery about where some of these Hoof Ladies come from.
Sex is one of the most potent ways of infiltrating a person. It is a seriously damaging colonial strategy to weaken community and resistance through demoralization of the youth through sex. Sexual enticements and perversion are meant to compromise and take our young people to an unnatural form of sex they have a hard time getting out of. It is confusing. They know it’s not love. It’s self degradation meant to mess with people’s emotions. They feel ashamed of being used.
This has nothing to do with valid loving relationships that exist between our peoples. We appreciate and continue to need the support of our friends and allies. A few members of some of these support organizations have been caught doing some dicey things in our communities. Our youth have reported some un-enticing persons have attempted to use kinky sex and drugs to infiltrate us.
Our people and our culture were never intended to go to these ugly places. Sex is supposed to create ‘sacred’ bonds that ensure the care of children and help the whole community to survive. Sexual exploitation hurts us all. The strategy is to pervert a beautiful human experience. In fact their form of exploitive sexual relationship is abusive, degrading and confusing. These non-Ongwehonwe persons manage to compromise some of our young people by encouraging them to violate cultural norms and take part in unnatural shameful sexual acts. The goal is to break down protective social barriers. They have shared a guilt ridden experience with someone. It’s another way of breaking down our defences by trying to drag us down to another level. We are made to feel uncomfortable with each other. Our powers are siphoned away. This strategy was used in the government run residential schools where our kids were sexually abused and emotionally violated, leading to their deaths and lifelong self-hatred.
These shape shifters plant stories to breed distrust among our people. They try to interfere with our most private and intimate relationships and trying to break up families. They want our minds by going after the bodies of our young people. Our elders who protect them are avoided.
This behavior straps the strength of our youth, leads them into doing things beyond what they would normally consider. In the end they have a hard time getting out of it without help from our community.
These shape shifters divide our people. Key members are targeted. One respected person was tempted to go into the city to have “three way sex” with them. When confronted, one said, “Who wouldn’t refuse this kind of invitation?” No one has a right to disrespect our women. Respect for our women is all-important, especially among our youth, who are most sexually active. Our people some even younger than twenty are being targeted for seduction. At another one of our communities during a protest volunteers arrived to work in the kitchen. The next thing we knew they were having sex with various people causing chaotic situations.
Some have said, “I am no longer worthy because I fell for it”. They are made to feel unworthy, rejected by the community and vulnerable to being used as pseudo representatives by the colonizing culture. These shape shifters advertise their exploits to discredit our people. The state now thinks they don’t have to worry about these targets anymore. They induce this kind of behavior using mind altering drugs and alcohol.
Our stories remind us that we are still Ongwehonwe. These shape shifters work on our emotions and psyche. We are alerting our young people to be observant, to stay conscious and vigilant. Don’t take anything for granted. Watch for those Shape Shifters who offer quick pleasure.
Concentrating on our youth is meant to break down the traditional values and relationships between our people. They create guilt, humiliation and depoliticization. Our youth feel lost to the traditional movement because they went against their own righteous standards. They are being ripened to be used by the state. The late Kevin White wrote about this in his book, “Where Eagles Dare to Soar – Indians, politics and AIDS”. [www.mohawknationnews.com] This kind of behavior is rewarded by the state. Prime Minister Stephen Harper recently appointed Patrick Brazeau of the Congress of Aboriginal People to the Senate of Canada. It follows this established strategy of tarring the reputation of all indigenous people by creating the impression that they can’t find any “aboriginal” representatives who are not degenerates.
These tactics are used internationally to break down native values. To protect ourselves from the enemy’s schemes, our young people have to be traditional in their outlook and in their relationships. These colonial parasites will bring their smut and vulgarity into our homes to try to tarnish us. They steal our money, our land and our resources. Then they lure our youth into this ugly emotional void. It is meant to alienate and destroy us.
Our young people are precious to us. They have been misled. We can’t let them go. They are victims of sexual depravity promoted by the colonial parasite class. How do we bring those who have fallen victims back home? How do we maintain a healthy outlook in our relations with each other? We need open and thorough discussions about it. We have to respect ourselves. We have to promote resistance, wisdom and high standards of behavior of our people. We need strong families raised in a spirit of love, affection, strength and integrity. We need them to defend us and build our future.
Let us face up to these terrible attacks against the core of our culture. Our lives should be an open book. Not a dark corner where we can do anything we please. We all have choices. We have to refuse to let these shape shifters disgrace us through our youth. We know our youth don’t want to betray us or fall into the swamp of corruption made by the colonial forces. We have to help our youth climb out of that swamp and come back to us without the outlook of the exploiters. We have preserved ourselves for a reason. We need clean consciences and good health to fight colonial decadence and imperial ugliness.

| | | 07.10.2008 05:20:01 | | WHEN "LUV" COMES TO TOWN | WHEN INTERNET "LUV" COMES TO TOWN - VULNERABLE PEOPLE WHO NEED PEOPLE
MNN. Oct. 6, 2008. We've come to realize that this whole "love" scamming business on the internet is being studied and schemed by agents of the elite thugs. One category is the "player" and the "target". "Players" are predators of other human beings. They operate from their own unwritten "con manual" on how to carefully "profile" their targets, move in and get what they want. Intelligence agencies have scientifically studied this and converted it into internet relationships which lead to a map of how to subvert individuals and communities.
The players have determined that there are basic personality types and traits of the targets, along with age, physical appearance, ethnicity, culture, income, etc. From this a player develops models of their targets, how they can play them and how they are likely to behave. A player learns how to spot these people when he enters a room like a bar or an internet "chat room". We are not denying that genuine relationships have developed on the net.
Players with an agenda now do a lot of their hunting on the "net" where they hide and reveal only what they want. Through high tech social networks in emails and correspondence they can make up any scenario the target is looking for. When they can't get near the intended target, they go for someone close or on the periphery.
Women in Western society are basically not liberated. They are mentally oppressed and lack self-esteem. This conditions them to feed into the lucrative cosmetic, fashion, self-help and image improvement industries. Women are conditioned to be compliant in male-female relationships which makes them vulnerable. This is just what the players want.
Some players are looking for money and maybe a specific type of relationship. For example, women over 30 could be getting desperate to marry and are more likely to have some money saved up. They are often generous, want to please and crave attention. Socially excluded women are especially targeted when money is the main goal. Their self-esteem is often low. They are vulnerable to flattery and attention.
If the player is presentable and overstates their credentials [and can't prove them] and goes after a lonely, marginalized, unworldly, naïve woman, he may be "playing" the target. They know how to play out the dream using the target's energy that they've carefully studied. After a short high powered internet romance, they meet. Friends and family usually can see through the player and try to warn the affected person, to no avail. The vulnerable party has been charmed, put into an enchanted state and can't see the duplicity or danger. We hear stories about how creeps entice under-aged kids on the net. We need to protect them.
The predator drives into town in a nice expensive vehicle, not a big old rusted "pow wow" car with a supped-up sound system. The target sees nothing but wonderful qualities built up in their besotted imagination. For the players it's an energy field to be manipulated. They play into their victims' fantasies and act out what the target is seeking.
Sometimes love is mutual and real in these 'Harmony.com' romances. For some being "in love" is like a state of intoxication. Having sex can cause a euphoric and non-analytical state of mind. It opens a person up to being manipulated by a predator. Intelligence agents have different priorities but use the same strategies. They can work the target up to a point of defrauding them of their assets, gathering information or controlling or compromising their lives for monetary, political or military purposes.
Since the days of "Cointelpro" [U.S. Counter Intelligence Program], intelligence agents have been trained to infiltrate groups, movements and communities. They play roles developed by psychologists with considerable insight into human behavior. They recruit agents in the target communities to work with them.
When an intelligence agent/player/predator is trying to infiltrate a movement, they will set their sights on the leaders, the outspoken ones and the passionate youth. If they cannot directly access their target, they go after their associates, even the family. Agents have been known to go all the way with their targets, even marrying and having children with them on long term assignments.
Players and agents have personality profiles too. Primarily everybody says he is a "nice guy" and too good to be true! The clean cut one with a pleasant smile and a charming manner with the ladies is the better type. The surly scruffy types do not make good players except in other circumstances. Some women like their men wild and wooly! Their handlers realize that they have to take their agents, put them in dirty blue jeans and drag them up and down the road for a bit for some assignments. Intelligence agencies hire people to do this kind of work regardless of criminal record and background. They go after a personality type and then train them. After a while the player goes into the "poor me" syndrome as though everyone treated them badly, especially an ex-spouse. There are usually gaps in their personal history, things they don't want to talk about or periods of time they can't or won't explain. Some players can lead 2 or more lives in different places. Here are some traits of the "player": 1. They are charismatic, or at least charming; 2. They often have insider connections. They arrive informed as a result of their training and studying the profile of the target or community. 3. They situate themselves deep into the community. They show no fear of the law and its consequences because they are protected. They set up innocent people in compromising positions and entrap them into situations they can't back out of. 4. They come into the community in many different ways like working in Indigenous businesses. These mysteriously begin to fall apart. Then the player is gone. In the end we are discredited. 5. They support any position in the community so long as they can get on the inside to exploit, escalate or heighten the outsiders' agenda. They subtly bait the person or group into confusion and chaos. It can be either short or long term. Then they disappear.
Intelligence agencies use these strategies to sidetrack us and any legitimate social movements into dead ends, disinformation and wasted time. They gain the confidence of their target. They try to exploit human weaknesses like greed, dishonesty, and vanity, but also virtues like honesty, compassion or a naïve expectation of good faith. Some drift into a community purporting to be "Indian" or even former members of the American Indian Movement.
Our so-called vulnerability goes back to how we treat animals that are part of our natural world since time immemorial. We Indigenous never domesticated them. There was a natural cycle of dependency on each other. We did not kill the young. This symbiotic relationship changed when the invaders came and started killing us and penning us up. The animals became afraid of human beings which they had never been before.
Victimization is possible because of the imbalance that has been created between us and our environment which is supposed to be dependent on physical attraction as part of our natural world. This is being displaced. Colonists have developed controls over their domestic animals which they use as weapons to sic on their victims.
To protect oneself is to know oneself. Players and agents have studied our vulnerabilities and will move in on the weak flank. So keep it covered. Stand as an equal in a relationship. Go to people in your life that you trust and respect. It could be your brother, your mom or your close friends. If they don't like your new found love that just came to town, they may see something you don't see. After all, love is blind. If the new "luv" is for real, they will respect your wishes. Watch out if they try to influence you against your family and friends. When the player isolates the victim, that's when they go in for the kill. Here's where you do what you did before luv came to town! Is it possible to turn off the computer and find a face-to-face genuine relationship today?

| | | 07.09.2008 16:46:29 | | DESTRUCTION AND DEATH OF INDIGENOUS YOUTH THROUGH THE SCIENCE OF SEXUAL ABUSE | – ANOTHER LOOK AT PEDOPHILIA IN CANADIAN RESIDENTIAL SCHOOLS. By Karakwine & MNN Staff
MNN. Sept. 7, 2008. Pedophilia is a violent sexual attack on children. Pedophilia is a covert criminal activity used globally by the elites. The clerical collar and the nun’s robes have been the perfect cover. It has long been a product of the strategies used by the elite to control and dominate the rest of the population. A small minority of human beings [2 to 3%] has no compunction about destroying and killing people to make it to the top of the European-style hierarchy. Governments, judiciary, the police and the Catholic and other Christian churches colluded in this well thought out system of debauchery. It did not happen randomly. Our children were snatched and put in residential schools, debased and many were killed.
The elite foisted their depravity on us to weaken and destroy us. These vulgar, immoral and violent acts were meant to bring down our normal healthy self-esteem for many generations to come. We were conditioned to blur the difference between lust and decency. As the owners of the land and resources they coveted, they needed to weaken us, turn us into victims and kill us off. They had to remove us so they could turn Onowaregeh/Turtle Island into a “terra nullius”, a land with no inhabitants.
The program for the mainstream public is different. They are being conditioned to accept treatment as cannon fodder for the irrational connivance of the elite. An example of conditioning is the 2007 Vanity Fair photos of adolescent actor, Miley Cyrus, and her father, Billy Ray Cyrus. This seductive photo of the girl lying across her father’s lap, both dressed provocatively, suggests that the public is being prepared to cross another moral line. Incest! As a 15 year old “commodity”, Miley Cyrus is a victim too! Even flesh colored baby diapers are designed to make little babies look naked. The internet is satisfying perverted lusts showing men having sex with babies. Babies are sacrificial lambs worldwide.
The top players in such a sick scenario are never caught or called to account. They have their “official” apparatus in place to protect themselves and their minions. Vile perversions are their drug of choice. George Bush Sr., an eastern establishment blue-blood, while he was U.S. President, was touched by a whiff of scandal involving young boys. [www.thelawparty.com/ FranklinCoverup/franklin.htm]
Whenever a scandal involving children breaks out, all avenues of inquiry are shut down. Only the low level perpetrators go to jail. The Detroux affair in Belgium is an example. [www.illuminati-news.com/2007/0724a.htm] That monster kidnapped and sodomized hundreds of children and murdered an unknown number. He had 7 villas in Belgium where he tortured, drugged and produced snuff and porn films. Then he killed the little girls and hid their bodies. His wife helped procure many of the children for him. He said at his trial in 2004 that he had accomplices among police officers, businessmen, doctors and high level politicians. None of the officials who perpetrated this perversion were touched. He, his wife and two accomplices are serving long jail sentences.
Dutroux is small potatoes compared to the murderous rampage carried out by the Canadian government, Catholic, Presbyterian, Anglican and United churches FOR OVER A CENTURY!!! Nobody went to jail for murdering over 50,000 Indigenous children in the residential school “torture dungeons”. Not one person! This is a perversion of justice. Our children were victims of medical experiments, rape, sodomy, starvation, floggings and strangulations. Children were coerced to kill other children and then bury them. Several skeletons of newborn babies were found in school furnaces.
The children were rounded up and sent to judges, police, politicians and professionals to be sexually exploited. The residential school program supplied our children in pedophile rings to men in high places who had a taste for very young brown skinned kids. In the book “Where Eagles Dare to Soar”, the author, Kevin White, said that they preferred to abuse our kids because they got a kick out of degrading our naturally healthy attitude about ourselves.
Prime Minister Stephen Harper did say, “Sorry” and then swept it all under the rug. The Canadian government seems to think that the reparation money they’ve paid out is the price they have to pay to continue raping us. In the subconscious minds of the elite, paying their victims is like going to a brothel and paying for sex. Our kids are in grave danger. In Vancouver and other western cities there are still streets where men go to have sex with little native children. Vancouver is turning into Canada’s Thailand where foreign men go on “sex junkets” for little brown skinned kids.
It is alleged that Boston Massachusetts is the pedophile capital of the U.S. This is where the Catholic church was exposed over priests abusing little boys for decades and being covered up and protected by the church. The church used religion as a sideline to carry out perversion, extract money from the people and to keep their flock dumbed down and forever victimized.
The establishment learn early the science of subjugating helpless kids and people. Normal humanity is systematically conditioned out of them and replaced with a cold merciless mindset. The ivy league schools where the upper crust send their children trains them to look down on those they think are the “unwashed masses”.
They are guaranteed top positions to run their criminal cartel. We all know how difficult it is for us “normals” to get a decent job in their hierarchy unless we are willing to become depraved. For most of us the glass ceiling is very low. We constantly hit our heads on it. It doesn’t matter how much formal education we get.
The set up is deliberate. The kids who have been escaping the social chaos caused by the residential school “brothel” program have been funneled into Canadian cities for decades. It was obvious that safe houses and hospices were needed for these extremely vulnerable young people. Instead of providing protection and support, officials turned a blind eye. They paved the way for pig farmers like Picton in Vancouver to snatch and “disappear” them on a massive scale over a long period of time. The cops also refuse to investigate the disappearance of over 500 Indigenous young women.
Child abductions and suffering of our children and our families appear to be a sexual turn-on for these degenerates. They thirst to subjugate the human race. The fact that drugs so readily come into our communities unabated points to the main culprit - the government. They want to help create a cowering and submissive Indigenous People. This goes against our natural order. In the long run it isn’t going to work. Many drug and alcohol riddled communities are now cleaning up.
The public were shocked when they learned the truth about the collusion between governments, police and the church. When will we see popes, presidents, Canadian prime ministers, top judges, top police, senators, members of parliament, all levels of clergy and CEOs go to jail, along with their many flunkies and henchmen?
The goal of this deluded scheme is to steal our territory and resources. To them the land owner has to be sexually subjugated and molested. Then in the perpetrators mind they now own the land. The idea is to degrade us so we will become degenerates. It is a deliberate way to destroy the race. We can see what’s going on. We are keeping an eye on our children.

Prime Minister Harper's "Apology" to Be Officially Rejected by Residential School Survivors at Rally and Press Conference
Vancouver, 18 June, 2008
Disgusted by the attempt by Canada and its churches to exonerate themselves with an "apology" for crimes against humanity in their Indian Residential Schools, grassroots survivors and their elders will rally in Vancouver next Monday, June 23, to publicly reject the apology.
Led by The Friends and Relatives of the Disappeared (FRD) and hereditary elders, residential school survivors will say no to the Harper apology, and condemn what they see as an attempt by the Harper government to trivialize and hide the reality of genocide in Canada.
"They say they're sorry, but that won't bring back the kids I saw killed at the Catholic school in Kamloops" said survivor William Combes on the Hidden from History radio program this week.
"If they're so sorry, then when will the priest who killed them be brought to trial? How come the churches are off the hook?"
Combes and others will rally next Monday, June 23 at 10 am (PST) at the office of the government's Indian Residential Schools Resolution Canada (IRSRC) at 1166 Alberni street in downtown Vancouver.
A press conference will be held at that time and location, where a letter will be issued to Prime Minister Harper and the United Nations from residential school survivors and the FRD.
This IRSRC office was the scene of a sit-in by residential school survivors last year that pushed Ottawa to issue its "apology".
"Steven Harper should be in jail" commented second generation survivor Rob Morgan of the Nishga Nation, who led last year's occupation.
"He admitted in Parliament that Canada and its churches deliberately planned the residential schools, that killed thousands of kids. So why aren't they all facing trial now? We made them apologize, but now we're going to make them face the music for what they did and are still doing to us."
The FRD is one of several groups that is sponsoring an independent inquiry into Canadian residential schools and the death and burial of children that will run counter to the government's dubious "Truth and Reconciliation Commission".
Last April 10, the FRD released a list of twenty eight mass graves near former Indian Residential Schools across Canada where countless children who died in these schools are interred. An updated list of burial sites and other evidence is being compiled by FRD researchers.

| | | 14.06.2008 17:26:29 | | CANADA CONFESSES TO PART OF ITS CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY | –THERE HAS FINALLY BEEN AN OFFICIAL APOLOGY FOR ‘MURDER”, RAPE… MNN. June 11, 2008….SODOMY, PEDOPHILIA, GERM WARFARE, STERILIZATION, MEDICAL EXPERIMENTS AND WHO KNOWS MAYBE EVEN NECROPHILIA OF INDIGENOUS CHILDREN IN ORDER TO “STEAL” OUR LAND AND RESOURCES. This is a start. Now we have to deal with other big issues, sovereignty and resources.
Our people were kidnapped and held hostage for three to four generations. Genocide is taking children away and killing them. It was only a small part of a bigger story of “gangsterism” and greed. Don’t be fooled! That evil program is still in full swing. Canada has no intention to stop. They continue to drive us off our land, to criminalize us, incarcerate us and to refuse to return control of our land and resources to us.
We don’t like being lied to. Saying “sorry” doesn’t cut it. Canada practically admitted to “murder” and theft in the first degree. While Prime Minister Harper was reciting his apology in the House of Commons, a permanent injunction was being granted to the city of Brantford to stop us from going onto our own lands to stop illegal development and to bring in the army if necessary. What forked-tongued two-faced hypocrisy! Anywhere else in the world when a people are threatened with military force, it is a “declaration of war”.
Every Canadian benefited from these crimes against humanity. They came here from Europe with empty hands. Stephen Harper said, “We are planning to move on”. This means that the perpetrators of these heinous crime have to be prosecuted in the international courts. More important, Canada is bound to the original relationship as “visitors” to our land who made promises to live peacefully under the Two Row Wampum Agreement. We are the land and resources owners and they have to negotiate with us to extend their stay.
Our future is tied to the Kaianereh’ko:wa, the law of Onowaregeh, Turtle Island. We cannot “bury the hatchet”! Planned murders of our children by the church and state cannot be pardoned anywhere. Canada broke international law to which they are bound.
At this moment illegal deals are being made by the government and its puppet band councils to deceive the people. Fraud and corruption is used to privatize under NAFTA every unsurrendered river and stream in British Columbia to send our water to California.
Is this desperation because Canada and the U.S. or someone is trying to keep the colonial scam going? Canada absolved the churches of responsibilities. The program to murder school children and to put them in unmarked graves was not random. All the churches, Catholic, Anglican, Presbyterian and United, stepped up to the plate to do dirty deeds for the state. It was part of the “program” to remove us completely to claim Onowaregeh, Turtle Island. What kind of special education does it take to forget that it’s wrong to kill kids?
Harper admitted they did not know our culture, our traditions and did not respect our basic human rights. They still don’t. Now that they have clearly admitted to being “busted”, shouldn’t the genocide stop?
The colonizers must respect our sovereignty, identity and culture. To start, they must stop all uranium and diamond mining, clear cutting and contamination of our environment. Stop trying to put us away in jails and holding cells to punish us for protecting the environment. Every single piece of Turtle Island, our resources and possessions must be returned to us so we can regenerate the natural beauty and health of Turtle Island.
Nothing is going to change if they can help it. To stop racism and lies the true history has to be taught in every school. Our education and language programs have to be improved. Clean water and decent homes have to be provided to all of us. All the elements that work together to demoralize our young people and incite them to commit suicides have to be stopped.
Canada is going to put up a monument as a symbol of this apology. Take down those hideous monuments to the true murderers of our people like Champlain, Humphrey Gilbert, Laverendrye, DeDenonville, Amherst and other scoundrels. Towns are still named after these mass murderers. Get rid of that depiction of the tied up Indian in bondage on the Clock Tower of the Parliament Building. We cannot rebuild our nations on monuments or empty words. Real reconciliation means restoring the traditional homelands and resources of the various Indigenous people who have been dispossessed. Anything less is a farce.
Canada stage managed this performance. It was sickening to see colonial lap dog Phil Fontaine of the Assembly of First Nations accept Harper’s apology on our behalf. It was a pre-written script probably by government spinners. We were never asked if we wanted him to accept this apology or to even accept it. The supporting remarks were made by the heads of colonially funded “puppy dog” organizations that jump to their “master’s” commands.
The money being offered to some of the victims is our own money. Any profit from our lands held in trust is “blood money”. We want an economy. Stop depriving us and forcing us out of our communities. Release all our trust funds immediately. Everything that was “kicked back” to the Vatican must be returned to us. These churches that committed these atrocities have investments from our lands worth billions and have combined stock portfolios in the billion if not trillions. Release these to us. Give us our funds that the Canadian government holds as “trust funds”, namely the “Indian Fund”, the “Consolidated Revenue Fund” and the “Contingent Liability Fund”. Give us a full detailed accounting of everything from the beginning.
All levels of government should stop issuing illegal permits for exploitation of our lands and resources. Stop using our land and resources as collateral to borrow on international money markets.
The Queen and all the other “carpet baggers” who head the corporate criminal organizations that murder, rape and pillage us and our possessions should now be prosecuted in the international court for their crimes.
Our parents were threatened with imprisonment if they did not release their children to the control of the church and state. How long does it take to forget what our children saw – other children being murdered and even being forced to help bury them. They were deliberately given contagious diseases from which many died. There was out-and-out murder of over 50,000 at the hands of teachers, priests, nuns and staff. Our children were used in experiments by German doctors in the 1930’s and then disposed of. The children were threatened to never tell anyone about it.
It was the “I Apologize” Show, with Phil in a war bonnet, with smudging, all players with their scripts in hand and an audience seated strategically around. Someone on cue even yelled from the House of Commons gallery, “Way to go, Phil. You are our leader”. This government sanctioned desperado is not our leader! The sanitized plot did not include murder, torture, sterilization, kids witnessing killings and medical experiments on them.
You, the abusers, are in dire need of healing. In Australia the prime minister apologized to the Aborigines and they now live under a form of ‘martial law’! What will happen now when the army is brought in on us as happened in 1990?

| | | 25.05.2008 21:19:11 | | Residential School Atrocity - Why an apology is wrong! | Author's Note:
This article below was offered to the Canadian media as an exclusive piece last week, and was rejected or ignored by the following newspapers:
The Globe and Mail, The National Post, The Montreal Gazette, The Toronto Star, The Ottawa Citizen, The Ottawa Sun, The Winnipeg Free Press, The Edmonton Sun, The Vancouver Sun, The Province, The Alberni Valley Times, The Epoch Times, and the Victoria Times Colonist:
Why an Apology is Wrong, and Deceptive: Bringing Humanity to Bear on the Residential School Atrocity by Rev. Kevin Annett
Rend your hearts, and not your garments Joel 2:17
Imagine for a moment that your own child goes missing and never comes home. Years pass, and one day, the person responsible for your child's death is identified, but he evades arrest and imprisonment simply by issuing to you an "apology" for your loss. He even speaks of seeking "reconciliation" with you.
How would you feel?
Hold on to that feeling, and now multiply your loss by many thousands of children, and make the guilty person the government and churches of Canada. Do so, and you will have arrived in a human way at the Indian Residential Schools atrocity.
One of my former parishioners put it another way:
"What we did to those native children was an abomination, and abominations aren't resolved with words and money. We need to have our hearts torn in two and be changed. We've got to stand, ourselves, under the judgment of God."
I doubt that Stephen Harper would be satisfied with an apology if his own kids were hauled off and killed for being practicing Christians. Yet on June 11, 2008, he will stand up on our behalf and try to apologize to other nations for having exterminated their children.
The whole effort seems more than ludicrous, or obscene. One cannot, after all, apologize to the dead. But the truth is, the government's planned "apology" to native people is an enormous exercise in deception - primarily self-deception.
Do we even know the meaning of that easily uttered term, "apologize"?
It actually has a double meaning, according to the internet Dictionary: a) "an acknowledgment of regret for a fault or offense" and b) "a formal justification, defense or excuse for one's actions".
That is, in our vernacular understanding of the term, an "apology" can be a genuine regret for one's acts; but it can equally be a way to evade responsibility for one's acts, by justifying oneself before one's victim.
The legal understanding of the word, however, is more specific, and has nothing to do with regret: "apology" is defined simply as "a disclaimer of intentional error or offense".
A disclaimer.
Now, I'm assuming that the government of Canada relies on legal definitions - operating, as it claims, "under the rule of law" - rather than popularly understood ones. So we must realize that when the government and its Prime Minister uses the term "apology", its understanding of the word is the legal one: namely, "a disclaimer of intentional error or offense".
In other words, on June 11, Stephen Harper will issue to the world a disclaimer to the effect that the Indian Residential Schools were not an intentional offense.
It's not surprising that the Prime Minister will be making such an outrageous and unsupportable claim, since if he ever admitted that the residential schools were intentional, he'd be the first defendant in the dock at an international war crimes trial.
But more important, this effort by our government - and the churches it is protecting - to be absolved of their own crimes is taking place under the illusory pretense of making amends with native people, when its purpose is simply to legally exonerate itself of culpability for the deaths of thousands of children.
This, indeed, has been the norm for both church and state ever since the first lawsuit was launched by residential school survivors in February of 1996. An army of court scholars and legal experts has generated a mountain of "holocaust denial" at every level of Canadian society during the past dozen years, to convince the world that the daily death and torture at the residential schools was not intentional at all.
Such an "apologetic" agenda defies logic and common sense, as in the statements from the government's misnamed "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" scholars that, while evidence shows that residential school children were being buried "four or five to a grave", and that the death rate in these schools stayed constant at fifty percent for over forty years, these deaths were "not intended".
To believe that, one has to ignore the evidence of senior government officials like Dr. Peter Bryce, who found that children were regularly being "deliberately exposed to communicable diseases" in residential schools, and left to die untreated. The word Bryce used was "deliberately". How else, after all, do so many children die?
All of this legal hoop jumping and evasion of responsibility might make sense to the government, and pay the salaries of their intellectual mercenaries, but it does nothing to advance the cause of truth telling and humanity in Canada, and snuffs out the lives of our victims ever more quickly.
I know this all too well, having spent most of my waking hours for years as a counsellor, advocate and chronicler for many aboriginal survivors of the death camps we like to call residential schools. And what I've learned from such work is that we cannot come to grips with something that we don't understand.
The truth is, Euro-Canadian society still doesn't understand what these "schools" were, either at a "head" or a "heart" level. If one believes the officers of the churches and government, the residential schools "issue" is all about money and verbal gymnastics. Yet none of these officials, as far as I know, have broken down and wept in public over the deaths of so many innocent ones; nor have they even offered to return their remains to their families for a proper burial.
Oddly enough, the very same officials continually and glibly speak about "healing the past", without even knowing their own history, and about "solutions" to the "residential school problem", as if they understand what that problem is - not realizing that, to quote William Shakespeare, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves."
For in truth, there is not now, nor has there ever been, an "Indian problem" in Canada. Rather, the problem is a "white" one. The problem is with us.
I won't point to collapsing eco-systems or troops in Afghanistan to prove this point. Nor need I pose the paradox of how educated men and women, with families of their own and a professed "Christian morality", could drive needles through infants' tongues at Indian residential schools, throw three year olds down stairs, sterilize healthy kids, and deliberately allow children to cough their lives away from tuberculosis, and then bury them in secret graves.
The evidence of the problem is more immediate, and far closer to home, in our continued segregation of aboriginal people into a lower standard of humanity that allows them to die at a rate fifteen times greater than other people of this country.
After all, if we Canadians are who we imagine ourselves to be - an enlightened society that "assimilated" native people into our ranks, and made them our equals - then why has not a single person ever been brought to trial for the death of a residential school child? Why is the disappearance of tens of thousands of native children in these schools not the subject of a major criminal investigation? And why is there an Indian Act, and not an Irish or an Italian Act?
Being, in reality, an unofficially apartheid society that operates, in practice, with two standards of justice - one for native people, and one for the rest of us - Canada can no more cure the legacy of the residential schools than it can stop chewing up the earth for short-term comfort and profit. At least, not this side of a fundamental moral and social revolution.
The fact that we are far from such a change struck home to me a few months ago when the government's fraudulent "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" announced that, although criminal acts did indeed occur in the residential schools, there would be no criminal investigation of these schools: an unbelievably brazen subversion of justice that evoked not a murmur of protest in the media or among the good citizens and politicians of Canada.
Regardless of this, there are things that can be done to overcome the genocidal residential schools legacy, and do justice, for once, to the survivors.
Rather than issuing verbal and self-serving "apologies" which change nothing, or staging a sham "Truth and Reconciliation Commission" that has no power even to subpoena evidence, the government and all of us could take these kind of bold measures:
1. Declare an Official Nation-wide Day of Mourning for Residential School Victims, dead and living.
2. Fully disclose what happened in the residential schools - naming the crimes, the perpetrators, and the cover-up - by launching an International War Crimes Tribunal with the power to subpoena, arrest and prosecute those responsible.
3. Bring home the remains of all children who died in these schools for a proper burial, and establish public memorial sites for them.
4. Create National Aboriginal Holocaust Museums.
5. End federal tax exemption for the Catholic, Anglican and United Church of Canada, in accordance with the Nuremburg Legal Principles concerning organizations complicit in crimes against humanity.
6. Abolish the Indian Act and Indian and Northern Affairs.
7. Recognize indigenous sovereignty and return all stolen lands and resources to indigenous nations.
An Irish relative once told me that the way her country is evolving away from eight centuries of warfare is through a simple formula:
"First you remember; then you grieve; then you heal".
Instead of skipping the first two steps, as Mr. Harper and too many of our people are trying to do "apologetically", it is time that Canadians found the courage to truly remember and admit to the world what we did to the first peoples of this land, and grieve our actions in the manner of people who truly rend their own hearts and want to change.
Perhaps then "healing and reconciliation" can become something more than an overworked political catch-phrase.

RCMP EVICT HEREDITARY CHIEF KIAPILANO AND SUPPORTERS FROM SQUAMISH BAND OFFICE, VANCOUVER
Squamish Nation territory ("Vancouver, Canada")
May 24, 2008
On Saturday, May 24th, a force of twenty taser-armed RCMP officers and band council police forced Chief Kiapilano off his own land yesterday during a peaceful occupation of the Squamish band council office by Kiapilano and his supporters.
On Friday morning, May 23rd, Hereditary Squamish Chief Kiapilano and a dozen supporters had swiftly occupied the offices of the state-funded "Squamish Band Council" in North Vancouver, and ordered the eviction of the entire band council.
Chief Kiapilano is leading a movement to expel agencies from his land who are responsible for the genocide of his people. Last March, Kiapilano and Eagle Strong Voice (Kevin Annett) initiated these actions by posting eviction notices on the Roman Catholic, Anglican and United churches in downtown Vancouver, ordering them off Squamish land.
Chief Kiapilano said in a statement from inside the occupied band council office, "Our people are starving, they're living in dilapidated homes, and these so-called 'chiefs' [representing the colonial government] are doing nothing for them. Now 'chief' Bill Williams has signed a deal with the province [British Columbia] allowing mining and destruction of more of our land. We're here today to tell these fake leaders to leave, and we're staying here until they're gone."
Bill Williams left and band council member Byron Joseph stayed. Williams called in the RCMP and band council police. Chief Kiapilano then advised Byron Joseph and his staff to leave the premises, and announced his intention to change the locks on the building.
"We're consulting our [colonial] lawyers" announced Byron Joseph, just before he and his advisors left the building for lunch.
"Chief Kiapilano declared a common law jurisdiction over this building, and has reclaimed it for all of his people", said Irene Peace Kiapilano. "We call on all hereditary chiefs to do likewise, and reclaim their land and government from a foreign occupying power."
Then on Saturday, May 24th, led by RCMP Inspector Richard Kennedy, [phone 604-985-1311 mvanrcmp@rcmp-grc.gc.ca] sixteen heavily armed mounties wearing flak jackets surrounded the band council office. Negotiations were going on between Chief Kiapilano and band council staff. After a lawyer from the Smythe-Ratcliffe firm [Phone 604-687-1231 info@smytheratcliffe.com] spoke to band councillor Byron Joseph, the talks were abruptly cancelled. The mounties blocked the doorways and prevented Kiapilano's supporters from re-entering the office.
"They wouldn't let me back into the building where they had the Chief trapped, so I got out my drum and start drumming" said Irene Peace Kiapilano.
"The cops were ready to attack us. They had their tasers out. I told Inspector Kennedy we had served the eviction notice on Byron Joseph and the band council, and he had accepted it. Kennedy said the federal Minister of Justice said they didn't recognize Chief Kiapilano or our document, even though it had been accepted in their own courts!"
Chief Kiapilano and his supporters were then physically forced from the building under threat of immediate arrest, and escorted off the band council land by a line of RCMP vehicles.
Native elders from the Downtown Eastside Womens' Centre showed up to support Chief Kiapilano. They were verbally threatened, photographed and ordered to leave by the same RCMP squad.
Before leaving, Chief Kiapilano declared three times to the RCMP and band councillors that his eviction order remained in effect. He and his people would return to enforce the order and remove the [illegal] Squamish band council from office.
"We offered them a hand of peace and they responded with violence" said Chief Red Jacket of Turtle Island, a participant in the occupation. "In our law, when that happens, all we have left is to go to war."
Further actions against the agencies responsible for the ongoing genocide of the Squamish people will continue on Sunday, June 1 at 10 am at the former "holy rosary catholic church" at Dunsmuir and Richards in downtown Vancouver. It is now an open community space under the jurisdiction of Chief Kiapilano.

| | | 16.04.2008 00:05:33 | | Location of Mass Graves Revealed | Breaking News: Location of Mass Graves of Residential School Children Revealed for the First Time; Independent Tribunal Established
Squamish Nation Territory ("Vancouver, Canada") Thursday, April 10, 2008 11:00 am PST
At a public ceremony and press conference held today outside the colonial "Indian Affairs" building in downtown Vancouver, the Friends and Relatives of the Disappeared (FRD) released a list of twenty eight mass graves across Canada holding the remains of untold numbers of aboriginal children who died in Indian Residential Schools.
The list was distributed today to the world media and to United Nations agencies, as the first act of the newly-formed International Human Rights Tribunal into Genocide in Canada (IHRTGC), a non-governmental body established by indigenous elders.
In a statement read by FRD spokesperson Eagle Strong Voice, it was declared that the IHRTGC would commence its investigations on April 15, 2008, the fourth Annual Aboriginal Holocaust Memorial Day. This inquiry will involve international human rights observers from Guatemala and Cyprus, and will convene aboriginal courts of justice where those persons and institutions responsible for the death and suffering of residential school children will be tried and sentenced. (The complete Statement and List of Mass Graves is reproduced below).
Eagle Strong Voice and IHRTGC elders will present the Mass Graves List at the United Nations on April 19, and will ask United Nations agencies to protect and monitor the mass graves as part of a genuine inquiry and judicial prosecution of those responsible for this Canadian Genocide.
Eyewitness Sylvester Greene spoke to the media at today's event, and described how he helped bury a young Inuit boy at the United Church's Edmonton residential school in 1953.
"We were told never to tell anyone by Jim Ludford, the Principal, who got me and three other boys to bury him. But a lot more kids got buried all the time in that big grave next to the school."

Issued on Squamish Territory, 10 April, 2008, under the authority of Hereditary Chief Kiapilano. ............ ......... ......... ......... ......... ......... .......
Press Statement: April 10, 2008
Mass Graves of Residential School Children Identified – Independent Inquiry Launched We are gathered today to publicly disclose the location of twenty eight mass graves of children who died in Indian Residential Schools across Canada, and to announce the formation of an independent, non-governmental inquiry into the death and disappearance of children in these schools.
We estimate that there are hundreds, and possibly thousands, of children buried in these grave sites alone.
The Catholic, Anglican and United Church, and the government of Canada, operated the schools and hospitals where these mass graves are located. We therefore hold these institutions and their officers legally responsible and liable for the deaths of these children.
We have no confidence that the very institutions of church and state that are responsible for these deaths can conduct any kind of impartial or real inquiry into them. Accordingly, as of April 15, 2008, we are establishing an independent, non governmental inquiry into the death and disappearance of Indian residential school children across Canada.
This inquiry shall be known as The International Human Rights Tribunal into Genocide in Canada (IHRTGC), and is established under the authority of the following hereditary chiefs, who shall serve as presiding judges of the Tribunal:
Hereditary Chief Kiapilano of the Squamish Nation
Chief Louis Daniels (Whispers Wind), Anishinabe Nation Chief Svnoyi Wohali (Night Eagle), Cherokee Nation
Lillian Shirt, Clan Mother, Cree Nation
Elder Ernie Sandy, Anishinabe (Ojibway) Nation
Hereditary Chief Steve Sampson, Chemainus Nation Ambassador Chief Red Jacket of Turtle Island
Today, we are releasing to this Tribunal and to the people of the world the enclosed information on the location of mass graves connected to Indian residential schools and hospitals in order to prevent the destruction of this crucial evidence by the Canadian government, the RCMP and the Anglican, Catholic and United Church of Canada.
We call upon indigenous people on the land where these graves are located to monitor and protect these sites vigilantly, and prevent their destruction by occupational forces such as the RCMP and other government agencies.
Our Tribunal will commence on April 15 by gathering all of the evidence, including forensic remains, that is necessary to charge and indict those responsible for the deaths of the children buried therein.
Once these persons have been identified and detained, they will be tried and sentenced in indigenous courts of justice established by our Tribunal and under the authority of hereditary chiefs.
As a first step in this process, the IHRTGC will present this list of mass graves along with a statement to the United Nations in New York City on April 19, 2008. The IHRTGC will be asking the United Nations to declare these mass graves to be protected heritage sites, and will invite international human rights observers to monitor and assist its work.
Issued by the Elders and Judges of the IHRTGC
Interim Spokesperson: Eagle Strong Voice
Email: genocidetribunal@yahoo.ca pager: 1-888-265-1007 IHRTGC Sponsors include The Friends and Relatives of the Disappeared, The Truth Commission into Genocide in Canada, the Defensoria Indigenia of Guatemala, Canadians for the Separation of Church and State, and a confederation of indigenous elders across Canada and Turtle Island.

| | | 01.01.2008 22:35:00 | | REPUBLIC OF LAKOTA - GOOD BEGINNING OF YEAR 2008 | MNN. January 1, 2008. Colonialism is a disease. It is characterized by fantasies, delusions, greed and destruction of everything in its path. For the past few centuries those who control Europe have been severely afflicted. At one point in the 1800s they thought they could meet in Berlin and decide who owned every corner of the earth. They didn’t even consider the rights or opinions of the Peoples who lived there. During the 20th century some of these European megalomaniacs had momentary lapses of sanity. They began to realize that war didn’t make sense. They founded the “League of Nations”. That folded because they were not sincere. Unfortunately, their delusions retained such a strong grip on their minds that they didn’t feel the need to talk with the true representatives of other nations. They imagined that they were the only “master civilized race” in the world. They kept on making wars among each other. World War II involved everyone because of the ravages caused by the colonial disease. Some non-European countries like Japan was also afflicted by the colonial disease. As the disease ran its course, there was another short lapse into sanity. The United Nations was founded to overcome the addiction to war. Its founding charter declared that all humans were equal and some serious efforts were made to regain sanity. Some of the European megalomaniacs began to let go of their delusions about being the “master race” of the world. Many non-European states were admitted as full members of the UN but the master race kept control. The colonial disease remained so strong that only colonially defined states were recognized. Indigenous nations were excluded. Meanwhile the colonial disease mutated and took on new forms. Some administrations, like the United States and the Soviet Union began to believe they could be masters of the universe. 160 wars were provoked worldwide. Meanwhile new forms of “colonialism” erupted in the business world. Mega-sized international corporations started trying to gobble up all people, governments and resources as if there was no tomorrow. Instead of being a cure for de-colonization, the UN developed its own strains of the disease. It became a tool for the addicts. European institutions [like the World Bank, International Monetary Fund and others] were forced onto Indigenous Peoples to set up the colonial theft of our land, labor and material resources. War was promoted as “peacekeeping”. The international court confirmed that no people could be absorbed into another state without the free and fully informed consent of the majority of the people concerned. However, because of the colonial disease, membership was prohibited to vast numbers of Peoples who had been unlawfully incorporated into foreign colonial boundaries. The UN tried to fudge the issue by establishing a separate Indigenous Forum. The states most severely afflicted with colonialism are the United States, Canada, Australia and New Zealand which have been populated by Europeans and other immigrants who invaded as part of the colonial disease. They continued the delusions that they own everything within the boundaries that they imagined during the height of the colonial epidemic. They are still so delusional that they do not even realize that they are sick. The cure is adherence to the principle of equality and sitting down with Indigenous Peoples to work out a solution and a reasonable plan for regaining their mental and social health and the return of what they stole. The indigenous peoples have struggled to find a cure since the arrival of the colonial epidemic which wiped out 115 million of our people in the Americas. We have repeatedly asked to be left alone. We have retreated to avoid contamination. But the Euopeans continue to chase their addiction. Their own scientists have proven that they have brought the environment perilously close to collapse. They continue to be driven by demons of greed. They don’t seem to be able to stop themselves.
Despite the obvious devastation that has been caused on every corner of the earth that they’ve touched, they continue to tear apart and pollute every nook, vale and ancient plane of the environment. They have seeded clouds with toxic chemicals and created continents of garbage in the ocean. Almost all of the fish are dead. Lakes are full of bubbling sewage of chemical residue. The lush forests that once sheltered our ancestors have been felled. The cities that the Europeans were once so proud of are flooded and being washed away, along with the sacred spawning grounds of fish, the nesting grounds of birds and the habitats of our animal protectors. They know disaster is at hand. Yet the disease continues to hold them in its deadly grip and they keep trying to infect everybody. The habit of ignoring and defaming Indigenous Peoples continues. We try to coax the colonial addicts out of their madness. Recently the Lakota decided to give the colonialists another chance to come to their senses. They put out a “Declaration of Continuing Independence ” on December 17, 2007. It’s nothing new. According to ancient principles of international law that were defined and confirmed at the UN, the Lakota and all Indigenous Peoples have always been independent and sovereign. The colonists did not respect the law because they are sick and deluded. But it’s no excuse. There are signs that many people who were born in colonial society have developed a resistance to the disease. The Lakota Declaration is an attempt to strengthen the processes needed to overcome the illness. It is offering members of the colonial society a reality check and a chance to start treating everyone with equality and respect. It is offering them a chance to rehabilitate themselves and to begin the long slow process of recovering from their addiction and escaping this ravaging disease. Please find attached the Lakota “Notice to All Foreign Governments and Private Owners of Real Estate” within their Republic. It’s an invitation to a new beginning and has been recognized as such by over 100 nations in the world so far. It is a good way to begin the new year. Kahentinetha Horn, MNN Mohawk Nation News

JAN 1, 2008 Notice to All Foreign Governments and Private Owners of Real Estate within the Republic of Lakotah TO: The United States of America; The States of: Montana, Wyoming, North Dakota, South Dakota and Nebraska; The County and Municipal Governments Operating within the Republic of Lakotah; and All Private Owners of Real Estate within the Republic of Lakotah
Lakotah, through its government, have appointed representatives to withdraw from all the treaties with the United States of America.
Lakotah, through such representatives, have formally withdrawn from all agreements and treaties with the United States of America. The reinstitution of our freedom and independence is found in law.
Lakotah has reclaimed sovereignty as a nation and over its traditional lands.
Despite many years of repeated bad faith on the part of the United States government towards the Lakotah People, the Lakotah hold no animosity toward the American people, most of whom have had no part in the actions of their government. We wish to deal with the American people in good faith and in a win-win manner.
While we have the right to impose liens on all of the real estate in our country, we prefer to come to resolutions with you all with out resorting to such measures. Accordingly, at this time, we are only declaring liens on real estate held by governments foreign to the Republic of Lakotah , but not on real estate held by private parties. The Declaration of Independence, the Constitution of the United States of America and the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties substantiate this freedom. Lakotah welcomes the opportunity to meet and discuss this matter. We are in the process of scheduling meetings and will issue public invitations. Should you desire input with regard to scheduling these meetings, please contact us at the above.

| | | 25.12.2007 20:41:00 | | “LAKOTA NATION” CONFIRMED - THEY ARE NOT PART OF THE U.S. | – PRECEDENT FOR OTHER INDIGENOUS PEOPLES? CAN RETHINKING OF “U.S.” & “CANADA” BE FAR BEHIND? [Story of the year]
MNN. Dec. 25, 2007. The times, they are achangin’. Go to the www.lakotafreedom.com website. There you’ll see Canupa Gluha Mani of the Strong Heart Warrior Society of the Lakota Nation cutting up his colonial driver’s license. He’s doing this because on December 17th 2007 the Lakota delivered their “Declaration of Continuing Independence”, just in time for the Winter Solstice.
The history of Lakota with the U.S. is long, complex and tragic. They knew something had to change. After the Wounded Knee Occupation of 1973, the International Indian Treaty Council was established. From June 8 to 16 1974 the Council called for a “Western Hemisphere” Conference at Standing Rock Sioux. Over 5000 delegates of 97 Indigenous Peoples from the Americas gathered. The “manifesto” that was created on that occasion supports the rights of all Indigenous Peoples to live free and take whatever actions are necessary to uphold our sovereignty.
It is rumored that President of Russia, Vladimir Putin, a powerful world leader, said today that he is considering recognizing the Lakota as an independent nation. Withdrawing from the treaties is entirely legal. It is within the laws on treaties passed at the Vienna Convention and put into effect by the U.S. and the rest of the international community in 1980.
The Lakota never relinquished their lands and have always refused to accept payment estimated close to $1 billion to give up their sovereignty and nationhood. Offering to buy us out means they are acknowledging our sovereignty.
They declared the obvious. The lands belong to the various Indigenous peoples and are clearly defined by the treaties. Where there are no treaties, the U.S. and Canada are squatters. Plain and simple! The indigenous people have the same rights under international law as anyone else, whether a country chooses to acknowledge it or not, as in South Africa. Our vast tracts of land, which have been cared for by our ancestors, continue to be ours despite the delusional fraudulent claims of the colonizing states. Treaties concluded through bribery and with colonial puppets, instead of with valid representatives of our people, are not legal.
It should be borne in mind that most, not all, of the treaties ever made with the colonizers granted them only very limited rights that fall far short of the greedy advantages they imagined. They had no intention of ever living up to any treaty. They were hell bent on stealing everything. The U.S. and Canada came as profiteers and fraudulently tried to steal all our assets.
Such documents were concocted in clear violation of international law then and now. This requires the informed consent of the people concerned. No state can incorporate another unless a clear majority of the people has expressed consent through fairly conducted democratic processes based on a clear question.
The Six Nations Confederacy and the Algonquins are the title holders of most of the eastern half of what is known as the colonies of Canada and northeastern U.S. Our Indigenous laws prohibit alienation of our lands. We hold them as trustees for the coming unborn generations. We refuse to surrender our lands. The implementation of the Indian Act and federal Indian law is genocidal.
According to article VI of the U.S. Constitution, treaties represent the Supreme Law of the Land binding each party to an inviolable international relationship. Those without treaties with the colonists hold their lands independent and free. The only legal authority is Indigenous. Article II sets out the primary nation-to-nation relationship. In Canada Section 109 of the British North America Act 1867 respects the primary authority of the Indigenous peoples. The U.S. and Canada have violated the independent Indigenous Peoples by “clerical” action, edicts and pronouncements violating our international treaty rights and authority.
The Lakota declaration of withdrawal from the Treaty of Laramie 1868 is vested in the power of the Lakota people and the children. One individual does not represent the nation. The nation represents the individual. The withdrawal is for the people, elders, mothers, fathers and children including the unborn faces beneath the ground.
The Treaty of Laramie was never honored. It’s been a colonial catastrophe, which was not its intent on our part. Indigenous children are still being taken away putting them out of balance from learning the traditional life ways. The true way is to be free and left to govern and look after our own with the teachings of the animal nations. This is about the Lakota Nation and the Animal People who are no longer here. “We are the Lakota Nation of Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming and Montana”. We are alerting the Family of Nations of our action with the backing of Indigenous, international and U.S. law.
Should all Indigenous nations of Onowaregeh, Turtle Island, assert our freedom and independence, what would happen? The action of the “Lakota” is going to have repercussions far and wide.
The colonists would go out of business, especially the oligarchs. They would have to work out agreements with all the Indigenous people on whose land they are squatting. Indigenous “liens” on buildings, development, resource extraction and all activities on our land will have to be governed and executed by us. Each Indigenous nation will assert our power over our lands, assets and resources. The colonies of U.S. and Canada will just have to become law abiding. They will have to learn to respect indigenous and international law. This will not bring a catastrophe for the ordinary people living on our land. They just have to come to terms with the reality that they are living within our jurisdiction, that they are visitors on our land and that they are required to follow our law.
The pointlessness of their former reliance on their handpicked “Indian” puppets set up by the colonial Indian Act band councils and federal Indian law tribal councils will become obvious. These sell-outs will have to live amongst their relatives without colonial power and support. Whisky, money and guns will lose their mystical attraction.
The Lakota call upon the world to support this struggle for sovereignty and treaty rights. They pledge their assistance to all sovereign people who seek their independence.
The Lakota have invited those living on their lands to join them. Lakota will issue permits to them, passports, driver’s licenses and other documents. Living there would be tax free providing the residents renounce their U.S. citizenship.
The Lakotah are to open negotiations with the State Department of the U.S. government to establish diplomatic relations. They are setting up offices in Washington and New York City.
Are we going to see the other nations of Turtle Island asserting sovereignty? Don’t let those “dirty rotten lawyers” meddle or intervene.
They’re not the ones who decide what the law is. The law belongs to the people. As our ancestors told us, “One nation will take the issue so far.
Then another will take it further. Until we all regain everything that is ours”.
So who’s next?

| | | 14.05.2007 16:54:23 | | ANOTHER LEONARD PELTIER SCANDAL IN THE MAKING | U.S. EXTRADITION ATTEMPT OF JOHN GRAHAM FOR ALLEGED MURDER OF ANNA MAE AQUASH MNN. May 12, 2007. John Graham, an Indigenous man from the Northwest Territories in Canada, is being accused by the U.S. authorities of participating in the murder of Indigenous woman, Anna Mae Pictou-Aquash, another “Canadian”. This happened more than 30 years ago. Both were members of the American Indian Movement [AIM]. Since when did the U.S. ever go after someone for killing an Indian? What’s behind it? John Graham is currently awaiting an extradition hearing in Vancouver, scheduled for May 17th, 2007. He has been under house arrest there since his apprehension in December 2003. John Graham is well known for his lobbying on Turtle Island and Europe against Uranium mining in Canada and the Black Hills in South Dakota. This could be a factor in his being victimized by the U.S. and the FBI. They want to destroy an articulate Indigenous spokesman. Due to his strict bail conditions he can’t work. His main resource is worldwide support for his advocacy. Forgotten by the U.S. and FBI is the reign of terror in the 1970s on Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota. This was after the take over of “Wounded Knee” by the Lakota and their supporters. There has never been an investigation into the deaths of 64 native people. Many of these cases have been well documented and made public since then. Authorities have done nothing to try to achieve justice in these cases. Just like the Leonard Peltier case, true to form, U.S. government agents are not using real evidence against Graham because they have none. Their case is based on hearsay “evidence” concocted by coerced witnesses. Peltier was convicted over 30 years ago for allegedly killing two FBI agents in a shoot out on Pine Ridge reservation. It’s all been discredited. This time they are relying on testimony of another Indigenous man even though it is “so full of big holes you could drive a truck through it,” as John Graham’s lawyer has put it. A well known FBI tactic used as part of COINTELPRO [counter intelligence program] was “bad-jacketing” where AIM members were falsely accused in order to cause internal conflict. Other well documented FBI tactics are infiltration, also with the purpose of causing internal conflict, and falsely charging and jailing innocent people. One of the first rumors initiated by the FBI was that Anna Mae was an FBI informant. This was ridiculous! After her death, the FBI then spread the rumor that she was killed by AIM. A lot of people know John. No one has seen any evidence that he is capable of violence. No matter what our people do, we don’t have a tradition of killing our own. We are not Europeans. There are all kinds of weird issues like the two autopsy reports. After the first autopsy, the FBI said she died of exposure. The family insisted on a second autopsy, which clearly showed she was shot in the back of the head. There have been lots of violations of due process. Canada has not even asked to look at the evidence. Why is Canada so anxious to turn John Graham over to the U.S.? Is it to legitimize an unethical extradition treaty? It’s a standard tactic to tie people up in court, take their resources and keep them from doing resistance work. This reflects the Canadian government’s racist approach. Canada is taking an unexamined approach to this case, passively following the U.S. lead. The US and Canada have essentially agreed to rely on a handshake and a brief procedural review of the documents. Canada pretends to assume the US Government will act in good faith when prosecuting a case against a Canadian citizen. The lawyers are not allowed to see the evidence, even though they have raised many important issues which are not being addressed. It is unconstitutional and a violation of international law for the Canadian Government to uphold only the rights of the United States in these proceedings. These practices do not allow Canadians to be protected as in other court proceedings. In this case, as an Indigenous person who never agreed to become “Canadian”, John isn’t a “citizen”. He’s deemed to be a citizen by the colonial state of Canada. Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms and sovereignty are in question when it allows a foreign nation with such an evil history of prosecutorial abuse to override its laws. Canada fears defending this individual against the foreign government's claim, even though there is plenty of reason to expect that the charges are false and malicious. At the very least the Government of Canada, and the Ministry of Justice should make sure there is hard evidence submitted that can withstand reasonable scrutiny; that John Graham be provided with sufficient funding to mount a complete defense; and that the proceedings for extradition be open and accountable to the public. The U.S. is in the habit of walking all over Canada. They’ve done it time and time again. Amnesty International has condemned the FBI for using false evidence to extradite Leonard Peltier from Canada in 1976. He’s been in jail every since. Amnesty International has called for his immediate release on the grounds that he no longer has adequate recourse to justice. Once again the US authorities are presenting questionable evidence, this time to extradite John Graham. Violations of established legal standards seems to have become habitual in the U.S. Note the international outcry over U.S. violations at Guantanamo Bay Cuba. We have to wonder why Canada is pandering to a known human rights abuser. Amnesty International in 2003 demanded that “there must be scrupulous respect for due process and fair trial proceedings…” They demand to know about “possible political interference in the course of justice”. This case is another example of what the U.S. does. They want to destroy Indigenous opposition by publicly crucifying us. They know we have the legal interest to the land and resources and will protect it. This is a tactic to scare us, by extraditing us and putting us on big public trials and a media show to try to paint us as criminal and unworthy people. The U.S. way relies on fascist policing and terrorizing the opposition.
The world community has to get involved. Human Rights organizations, First Nations Chiefs, trade unions and other groups have expressed their concern about John Graham's case.

| | | 13.02.2007 16:31:26 | EL "PLAN ONKWEHONWE” – TOMAMOS LA ISLA TORTUGA! MNN. 12 de Febrero 2007. Al principio de los años 60, algunos antiguos jefes, ancianos y jóvenes Onkwehonwe (originarios) se reunieron. Hicimos un plan para nuestro pueblo. Lo llamamos el "Plan Indio". Viajamos en todo el territorio y hablamos con nuestras hermanas y nuestros hermanos acerca de como salir del dominio colonial que casi nos borró del planeta. Hablamos acerca del genocidio manejado por el ministerio de Asuntos Indigenas y por los gobiernos coloniales. Concluimos un pacto para que se pare esto. Solo tenia quatro páginas. Las personas pedian sus copias y fue distribuido ampliamente en toda la Isla Tortuga (América del Norte).
Dijimos, "Los colonialistas tienen que cambiar su actitud hacia nosotros. No les dejaremos seguir tratando de exterminarnos. Hicieron que sobrevivientes como nosotros ahora nos consideramos suertudos que nos permitan estar vivos." Hoy en día la colonización sigue, y más fuerte que nunca. Pero nuestro plán ya está lanzado. Afirmamos nuestra verdadera posición como detentores titulares de la Isla Tortuga. Cincuenta y cinco años despues, nuestra juventud ha invadido los colegios y universidades. Vencieron los prejuicios sistémicos y se volvieron ingenieros, scientificos, abogados, doctores, enfermeras, escritores. Nuestra juventud tiene un fuerte arraigo en nuestra cultura, respeto para nuestro pueblo, y al mismo tiempo logró tener éxitos académicos. Entraron en cada profesión. Nuestra comida y nuestras viviendas quizas no son de lo mejor. En muchas de nuestras comunidades ni siquiera hay agua potable y limpia, cuando antes de la colonización habia para todos. Pero ahora hemos formado jóvenes con los conocimientos técnicos para implementar el capítulo final del "Plan Indio". Retomaremos el control de la Isla Tortuga! Queremos sanar la tierra que ha sido profanada por los vandales Europeos. Los Canadienses lo saben hoy en día, el Canadá que dejó la tierra herida y envenenada, puede volverse una cosa del pasado. Podria ser que sea solo un pequeño percance en nuestra historia muchas veces milenaria. Estamos listos para afirmar nuestra verdadera posición. Somos el pueblo originario que esta aquí para cuidar las tierras. Nunca nos escapamos de nuestra responsabilidad. Nunca estuvimos de acuerdo con el vandalismo cometido en contra de nuestra Madre, la Tierra. Queremos que noes traten con respeto y enseñar a los invasores las buenas maneras sanadoras que nunca entendieron. Nunca mas seran nuestros niños robados, matados, olvidados. Ya recuperamos a nuestros niños. Puede ser que los colonizadores esten alistandose para escucharnos. Estan empezando a darse cuenta de todo el daño que causaron. Tenemos miles y miles de Onkwehonwe que ya son profesionales competentes en el manejo de las más complejas cuestiones legales, económicas, scientificas y medioambientales, para solucionar la devastación. Tenemos el conocimiento necesario para llenar la brecha entre las costumbres abusivas de la sociedad colonial y nuestra propia tradicion de cuidado que siempre lleva en la mente las siete generaciones futuras. La decolonización necesitará mucho trabajo. Si trabajamos muy fuerte podemos lograrla dentro de algunas generaciones. La sociedad colonial exige que todo este hecho de un golpe. Vive en el momento con acciones reflejas. Nosotros sabemos que tomara tiempo la reconstrucción y el redescubrimiento del uso pleno de nuestras costumbres para sanar la tierra. Se necesitaran miles de años para sanar algunos de los daños hechos a la tierra. Cuando trabajamos todos juntos podemos encontrar maneras de hacerlo. El gobierno colonial siempre quizó hacernos ignorante y hacernos pensar que no podiamos hacer nada por cuenta propia. Muchos de nosotros siempre supimos mejor. Los colonialistas presienten la verdad. Ahora hablan con el pueblo Onkwehonwe, y entendemos mejor que ellos los asuntos complejos ahora en su cara. Los colonialistas tienen que enfrentar sus contradicciones. Seran derrotados al final por nuestra persistencia. La gente empieza a darse cuenta que sin un cambio de comportamiento todos van a morir. Nadie quiere ser la victima de las costumbres depredadoras que hieren todos. Un bien ejemplo es lo que esta pasando ahora en Six Nations, en donde nuestra gente reclamó su territorio robado por empresariales. Jane Stewart, Barbara McDougal y todos los partisanos y agentes de Ontario, de Canada y del nivel municipal viven en la denegación de la realidad. Hay ahora cientos de empresas que quieren hacer caer las puertas de la Casa larga de la Confederación Haudenosaunee para que se les permita emprender su llamado "desarrollo". Lo que encuentran es que somos un pueblo sofisticado con ideas claras acerca del tipo de desarollo que no queremos. Los colonialista tienen una pésima hoja de ruta y eso desde el siglo XIX, por ejemplo la Compañia de Navegacion del Rio Grande (Grand River Navigation Company) que fue hundiendose pese a que funcionaba con territorio y dinero robados. Nunca lograron pero siguen intentando. Tienen que empezar a mirarlo desde nuestra perspectiva. Algun día oleran el café y se despertaran. Los 10 miliones de habitantes no-originarios de Ontario estan viviendo, comiendo y respirando el desarrollo de torres, condominium, centros comerciales, rutas, autopistas, minas, talas de bosques, pesca y caza hasta el exterminio de especies, envenenamiento de la tierra, del agua y del aire. Esa gente solo no sabe como vivir sin ensuciar su nido en nuestro territorio. El tiempo ya llegó en que nosotros tomaremos el control y demostraremos como se tiene que limpiar su desorden. Nosotros, los legítimos dueños del territorio y de los recursos, no nos quedaremos más ignorados. Muchos de nosotros han trabajado en las ciudades más grandes de la Isla Tortuga. Nuestra gente son arquitectas, ingenieros, trabajadores del hierro. Hicimos cualquier trabajo que se pueda imaginar. Queremos y tenemos capacidad de administrar nuestro territorio para el beneficio de todos. Los colonistas no tienen que inquietarse, no les haremos pasar por todo lo que hemos vivido. Prometemos no robar sus niños. No haremos experimentos medicales con ellos. No vamos a robar sus pertenencias o hacerles morir de inanición. No vamos a ponerlos en campos de concentración. No vamos a destruir sus provisiones de comida. Genocidio no es nuestro estilo. Haremos que esto mas se vuelva cosa del pasado. Saben que nuestra cultura no es una de explotación, afán de dinero y cruel abuso de los seres con objectivo final de que unos cuantos hagan beneficios. Pronosticamos para el futuro cambios de programas en la televisión, en el top 40 musical, la pornografía pasara de moda, las carceles se vaciarán, tiendas de lujo se cerrarán. El compartir sera el principio para guiarnos. Si, tenemos mucha gente Onkwehonwe muy educada, sofisticada y competente. Los colonialistas tendran que tratar con nosotros, hablarnos como iguales en una base de nacion a nacion. Tenemos nuestras raices en el pasado de nuestros pueblos y nos dirigimos en el futuro tal como tenemos que ir. Alistense, vamos afirmando nuestra legítima posición. Hasta los no-originarios que viven en nuestro territorio nos dijeron que se sentirian más seguro sabiendo que las tierras y las comunidades fueran administradas por sus verdaderos dueños. Muchos quieren vivir bajo nuestra protección. La Isla Tortuga siempre ha sido un refugio de protección para gente oriundos de todo el mundo. Saben que nuestra cultura no nos permite tener motivaciones de avaricia y de avidez. Trabajamos por el beneficio de todos. Somos un pueblo incluyente e igualitario. Nadie deberia controlar a nadie. El pueblo en general estará mas dispuesto a trabajar con nosotros que el gobierno dirigido por corporaciones que estan ahí por el poder, control y dominación. Como anfitriones queremos que la gente viva en nuestro territorio, que lo cuide, que lo pasen bien y que tengan muy buenas vidas. Queremos que la gente se haga responsable de la creación. No es la ideología del Nuevo Orden del Mundo en donde el control esta impuesto desde arriba hacia abajo. Queremos ir en la dirección opuesta. Creemos en la verdadera democracia, en donde el pueblo tiene derecho y cuida al prójimo. Tenemos que comunicar a todos nuestro "Plan Indio" acerca de como vamos a retomar nuestro lugar. Necesitamos desarrollar lineas directoras, protocolos y acuerdos para programas ambientales basados en nuestra comprensión del mundo natural. Tenemos los técnicos entre nosotros que estan listos para emprender este proceso. Seguiremos nuestra filosofía, la Kaianereh’ko:wa/ Gran Ley de Paz, que junta lo mejor de la mente de todos. A la llegada de los Europeos, ya habiamos creado un paraiso en donde habia abundancia de comida y en donde se vivian vidas largas, en buena salud y felicidad. Queremos vivir en comunidades bien dirigidas, queremos proteger el medio ambiente, vivir en buenas casas, respetar a nuestros ancianos y tener todo lo necesario para vivir bien. Para la información de todos en general no estamos viviendo en teepees, tampoco estamos correteando por todos lados en tabarrabos. Cuando estos empresariales y colonistas vengan a vernos, enfrentaran gente que sabe de lo que esta hablando. Y con caras de Onkwehonwe.

| | | 13.02.2007 10:00:40 | THE “ONKWEHONWE PLAN” FOR TURTLE ISLAND – WE’RE TAKING OVER!
MNN. Feb. 12, 2007. Back in the early 1960’s some old chiefs, elders and young Onkwehonwe got together. We came up with a plan for our people. We called it the “Indian Plan”. We went across the land and talked with our brothers and sisters about a way to get out of the grip of colonialism that had almost wiped us off the face of the earth. We talked about the genocide that was being conducted by Indian Affairs and the colonial governments. We made a pact to stop it. It was only four pages long. People wrote for copies and it was distributed widely throughout Turtle Island.
We said, “The colonists have to change their attitude towards us. We aren’t going to let them continue to try to exterminate us. They’ve been making survivors like us think we’re lucky to be allowed to live”. Today colonization is still going as strong as ever. But our plan is on track.
We are asserting our true position as the title holders of Turtle Island. Forty-five years later our young people have invaded the colleges and universities. They overcame systemic prejudice and have become engineers, scientists, lawyers, teachers, doctors, nurses and writers. Our young people have a grounding in our culture, respect for our people and at the same time have managed to achieve scholastic success. They have entered every profession.
Our food and housing may not be the best. A lot of our communities don’t even have clean drinking water which was here for us all before colonization. But we now have trained young people with technical skills to implement the final chapter of the “Indian Plan”. We are going to take back control of Turtle Island! We want to heal the land that has been desecrated by the European vandals. The Canada people know today, the Canada that has left the land scarred and poisoned, may become a thing of the past. It might just be a cough in our history which goes back many thousands of years.
We are ready to assert our real position. We are the original people placed here to take care of the lands. We never relinquished our responsibility. We never agreed to the vandalism that has been committed to our Mother, the Earth. We intend to be treated respectfully and to teach the invaders the good healing manners that they have never understood. No longer will our children be stolen or killed or forgotten. We’ve gotten our children back.
The colonizers may be getting ready to listen. They are beginning to see how much damage they have caused. We have thousands upon thousands of Onkwehonwe who are professionally trained to handle the most complex legal, financial, scientific and environmental matters to straighten out the devastation. We have the knowledge that is needed to bridge the chasm that exists between the abusive customs of colonial society and our own custodial tradition that always keeps the future seven generations in mind.
Decolonization will take a lot of work. If we work very hard it can be completed within a few generations. Colonial society expects to do everything at once. It lives in the moment with a knee jerk reaction. But we know that it will take time to rebuild and to rediscover the full use of our customs to heal the land. Some of the damage that has been done to the land will take thousands of years to repair. When we all work together we can find ways to do this.
The colonial governments have always wanted to keep us ignorant and made us think we could never do anything for ourselves. Many of us always knew better. The colonists are starting to see the truth. They are now talking with Onkwehonwe people who understand better than they do the complex issues that are before them. The colonists are having to face their contradictions. They will lose out in the end because of our persistence.
People are beginning to realize if our ways don’t change everyone will die. No one wants to be at the wrong end of the predatory habits that are hurting everybody.
A good example is what is happening right now is at Six Nations where our people reclaimed stolen land from developers. Jane Stewart, Barbara McDougal and all the other Ontario, Canada and municipal cheer leaders and agents are in denial. There are presently hundreds of developers trying to beat the doors of the Confederacy Longhouse down to get permission to put in what they call “development”. They are finding out that we are a sophisticated people with a good idea of the kind of development we don’t want.
The colonists have a lousy track record going back to the 1800’s, like the Grand River Navigation Company which went belly up, even though they were using stolen land and stolen money. They never suckered us, but they keep trying. They have to just start looking at it from our perspective. Some day they’ll wake up and smell the coffee.
The 10 million non-native people of Ontario are living, eating and breathing development of office towers, condos, shopping malls, roads, highways, mines, clear cutting, fishing and hunting species to extinction and poisoning the land water and air. These people just don’t know how to live without fouling their nest on our land.
The time has come for us to take over and show them how to clean up their mess. We, the owners of the land and resources, will no longer be ignored. Many of our people have worked in the biggest cities of Turtle Island. Our people are architects, engineers and iron workers. We’ve done every job you can think of.
We are willing and able to administer our land to benefit everybody. The colonists don’t need to worry about living as bad as they made us live. We promise we won’t steal their children. We won’t do medical experiments on them. We won’t steal their assets or starve them to death. We won’t put them in concentration camps. We won’t destroy their food supplies. Genocide isn’t our gig. We’ll make that a thing of the past too.
They know that our culture is not one of money grubbing exploitation and heartless abuse of people, whose bottom line is profit for a few. We predict for the future changes to television shows, top 40 music, porn will go out of style, jails will be empty and exclusive shops will close. Sharing will be the guiding principle.
Yes, we have lots of highly educated, sophisticated and skilled Onkwehonwe people. The colonists will have to deal with us, talk to us as equals on a nation-to-nation basis. We have roots in our past and are going forward into the future as we were intended to do. Get ready to come to terms with us asserting our rightful position.
Even the non-natives living on our land have told us they will feel more secure knowing that the lands and communities will be administered by the true owners. Many want to live under our protection. Turtle Island has always been a haven of protection for people from all over the world. They know that our culture does not allow us to be motivated by greed or avarice. We work for the benefit of everybody. We are an egalitarian inclusive people. Nobody should control anybody.
Ordinary people will be more willing to work with us than with a government run by corporations who are in it for power, control and domination. As the hosts we want people to live on our land, take care of it, enjoy themselves and live nice lives. We want people to take responsibility for creation. This is not the ideology of the New World Order where control is dictated from the top down. We want to go in the opposite direction. We believe in true democracy where people have rights and care for each other.
We need to tell everyone about our “Indian Plan” on how we are going to take over. We need to develop guidelines, protocols and agreements for environmental programs based on our understanding of the natural world. We have the technical people in our midst who are ready to get things going.
We are going to follow our philosophy, the Kaianereh’ko:wa/Greal Law of Peace, which brings the best from the minds of everybody together. When the Europeans arrived we had already created a paradise where food was abundant, people were healthy and lived long and happy lives.
We want to live in well run communities, protect the environment, live in good homes, respect our old people and have those things we need to have a good life. For everybody’s information we do not live in tipis or run around in loin cloths.
When these developers and colonists come to see us, they’ll be facing people who know what we are talking about. They will be Onkwehonwe faces.
