#RLblockade Nizhawendaamin Inaakiminaan (We Love Our Land) is a group of Red Lake Band of Chippewa Indians, joined by blockaders and solidarity activists. The encampment is located in Northern Minnesota near the town of Leonard. Tom Poorbear, vice president of the Ogalala Sioux Nation declared, "We fully support the Red Lake Nation and its members who are opposing the Enbridge pipeline to stop the flow and remove the illegal pipeline from their land." The occupation of the Red Lake Ceded Land began Thursday, February 28. Similar action camps around the United States have been fighting the fossil fuel industry to stop the destruction of sacred lands. Red Lake tribal members demand the immediate shutdown of the flow through the pipes and intend to remain on the land until their demand is met. "I imagine everyone involved in the planetwide resistance to fossil fuel is watching them with thanks," said Bill McKibben founder of 350.org and leader of the recent Forward on Climate Rally. Chief Bill Erasmus of the Dene First Nation stated, "We fully support and are inspired by the Red Lake members and their resistance as it is stated in the Mother Earth Accord; affirming our responsibility to protect and preserve for our descendants, the inherent sovereign rights of our indigenous nations, the rights of property owners, and all inherent human rights." Most band members were unaware of Enbridge's illegal activity until the encampment started. "When I was informed about the illegal trespassing of the company Enbridge on my homeland, I knew there was something I could do. I started calling as many Red Lakers as I could to try and make them aware," said Angie Palacio who initiated the encampment with the support of the Indigenous Environmental Network.

SPLITTING-THE-SKY
MNN. MAR. 15, 2013.
Mohawk Warrior and Champion of the People Dies – March 13, 2013. A great loss to the people, to the nation, to the resistance, anti-imperialist movement right across Great Turtle Island.
On March 13th,
Dacajeweiah, Splitting-the-Sky, 61, left us forever when he passed away
in his home in Adams Lake, British Columbia. Dac’s colonial name was
John Boncore Hill, from Six Nations. “From Attica to Gustafsen Lake,”
and thereafter, he was a warrior, a comrade, a brother, a father, a
grandfather, a friend.We deeply mourn his loss.
The family will release a biographical statement and details of memorial arrangements in due course. With deepest love to his wife, She-Keeps-the-Door, and children. We stand with Dac’s many many co-fighters and friends. He loved the People. The AIM song is dedicated to the continuance of the resistance after a warrior has fallen A.I.M. song

Mohawk Nation News 'New Godfather'
NEW GODFATHER
MNN. Mar. 14, 2013. The Catholic Church is the first male hierarchical corporation. The Pope is the CEO of this corporation. All other corporations in the world follow this model. One guy orders everybody what to do and think.
Jesuit Italian immigrant, Jorge Bergoglio, has become Pope Frances. He is a Jesuit who are the intelligence and military arm of the Catholic Church. They came to Western Hemisphere to spread small pox, not Christianity. They got rid of 100 million of us for their CEO. Now one of them becomes the CEO. The hierarchy will soon be eliminated because it goes against natural law.
Jesuit: “We’ve got these nice warm blankets for you.”
He acts like a man of the poor, living in a flat in the ghetto, so he can be near the young children who run in the streets. Is he sacrificing to satisfy his esoteric agenda?
He’s suppose to make drastic changes before the whole house burns down. Sex abuse, financial corruption, gay mafia, young priests refusing to join the house of ill repute and women left completely out. No charges or imprisonment has come yet of their criminal activities. It‘s coming boys!
He apologizes for discrimination against Jews, homosexuals and women, as if they have the ultimate authority. No one can talk to God unless they pay and direct their message through him.
He says, “It’s important to believe, to have faith”, so he can stay on top.
Loves street kids.
How is the Catholic Church going to stay in business? There’s feuding, corruption and cronyism throughout. The Masonic P2 Lodge is running money laundering out of the Vatican.
Apparently he has the least dirt on him compared to the rest of the bunch. We can only imagine how their dossier look.
Why is the Pope important? He is the top CEO of all the corporations worldwide. 65 churches have closed in Montreal. No one goes because they are tired of being abused. They say there are 1.2 billion Roman Catholics in the world, because they need a “really big” number!
Last ride?!
What Frances will find is he is going to be the last Pope during the dismantling of this evil corporation. As Jeff Beck Group sings: “I’m goin’ down. I’m goin’ down, down, down down. Yes, I’ve got my feet in the window, and I’ve got my head on the ground.” Going Down
