Leonard Peltier 'My Life is in Your Hands'

Prison Dispatch from Leonard Peltier
June 05, 2015
"My life is in your hands."
English, with Dutch translation by Alice Holemans, NAIS Gazette
Greetings friends, supporters and Native Peoples,
I would like to begin by saying thank you to those of you who have been with me over these nearly 40 yrs, I know some have passed and we all miss them. Many of them gave their all to help Native nations.
Those of you still around have seen a lot of changes with the ILPDC. Most of the good volunteers had to leave for their own careers or health reasons and some just wanted to move on. But before they did go, they did some awesome things in building the Committee. Then there were, I must admit, a few who came along who had their own agenda. In the end, I was the one who lost out as a lot of the work done by others was lost. That is the situation with the Committee now.
So when my son Chauncey came to visit me after I hadn't seen him for over 16 yrs, I asked him if he would like to help me I needed someone to take care of my art work and to hire a good lawyer. We needed to reopen the Defense Committee, too. Chauncey said he would love to help me. Chauncey has been working hard. Please check out peltierart.com. If you can afford to purchase artwork, it would be a big help. The available art isn't bad, I'm told :-)
Together with Peter Clark and a new Board, Chauncey is also rebuilding the Committee as quickly as he can. But I can't wait for the Committee to get back working at full strength as time is running out for me to file a clemency petition. So I have to ask you supporters around the world for help.
I hear some people claim I don't need lawyers. That's not true. And it's important for supporters to understand that some of my attorneys work for free, but they have expenses the Committee needs to cover. Not all of my attorneys work for free, though, and some are very expensive.
I also hear that supporters think all my celebrity supporters have donated to the Committee? They rarely do and when they do their donations are far less than you might imagine.
No. The fact is that it's always been you supporters who have kept my hope for freedom alive. Now more than ever before I need and want your support.
But I don't just need funds. I need you to keep contacting President Obama. My life is in your hands. Please do your part to help convince the President to let me go home.
Thank you.
Doksha,
Leonard Peltier

LEONARD PELTIER- BRIEF UIT DE GEVANGENIS

5 juni 2015

Gegroet, vrienden, supporters en Native volken

Ik wil beginnen met iedereen die deze 40 jaar aan mijn zijde hebben gestaan te bedanken. Sommigen onder hen zijn verder gegaan en we missen hen allemaal. Vele onder hen gaven hun alles om Native volken te helpen.

Diegenen die er nog zijn hebben een hoop veranderingen in het ILPDC meegemaakt.
Veel goede vrijwilligers hebben moeten afhaken omdat hun eigen carrière geen tijd overliet, of om gezondheidsredenen, anderen wilden gewoon verder.
Maar voor ze gingen hebben zij geweldige daden verricht in het comité.
Dan kwamen er enkele bij, en dat moet ik toegeven, die voor hun eigen agenda werkten.
Met resultaat dat ik het was dat ik het meeste verloren heb toen een hoop werk, gedaan door anderen verloren ging.
Zo is de toestand in het comité nu.

Dus toen mijn zoon Chauncey , mij kwam bezoeken heb ik hem gevraagd of hij me wou helpen om zorg te dragen voor mijn kunstwerken en een goede advocaat in de arm te nemen. Het Defense committee moest terug op poten gezet worden. Chauncey beloofde me te helpen en hij heeft reeds hard gewerkt. Neem eens een kijkje op www.peltierart.com

Wanneer u zich kan veroorloven om een werk te kopen, dan zou dat een grote hulp zijn.

Samen met Peter Clark en een nieuw bestuur werkt Chauncey hard aan het opstarten van het nieuwe comité.
Ik kan niet wachten tot het comité terug op volle kracht werkt , want mijn tijd dringt om het verzoekschrift voor clementie in te dienen.
Daarom vraag ik u, supporters van over de hele wereld om hulp.

Ik hoorde dat sommigen zeggen dat ik geen advocaten nodig heb. Dat is niet waar. En het is belangrijk dat u weet dat sommigen van mijn advocaten gratis werken, maar hun onkosten moeten door het comité vegoed worden.
En niet al mijn advocaten werken gratis en sommigen zijn duur.

Ik heb ook gehoord dat mensen denken dat mijn beroemde supporters geld schenken aan het comité. Dat doen ze zelden en wanneer ze het doen is het veel minder dan u denkt.

Neen, het feit is dat het steeds supporters zoals u geweest zijn die mijn hoop op vrijheid levend hielden. En nu, meer dan ooit heb ik u nodig.

Maar het gaat niet alleen om fondsen. Ik heb u nodig om President Obama te contacteren.
Mijn leven is in uw handen.
Doe a.u.b wat u kan om de President te overtuigen om me naar huis te laten gaan.
Dank u.

Doksha,
Leonard Peltier

Mohawk Nation News: BARE NAKED EMPIRE [io’nents:toten]

BARE NAKED EMPIRE [io’nents:toten]

Please post and distribute. Nia:wen.
MNN. June 4, 2015. We can all see they are criminals and they’re all going to the gulag that they built for us. TRC ‘terminator” Murray Sinclair’s recommendations and the Senators passing the anti-ongwe’hon:weh Bill C-51 on the same day is no coincidence. Minister of Indian Affairs Valcourt showed his disrespect for our slain missing murdered women. He refused to stand with everyone else in the room. They all took oaths to the CROWN and Canon Law, which is based on the Pope being God who owns every living thing on this earth.
"Not sure where to go. I'm a Heinz 57!"
“Let’s get ready to move home!”
The earth is everybody’s mother. The only way you can attach yourself to your mother is through the women of your original homeland. Their children who have been away from their original part of the world are lost and cannot find their way home through mother earth hereoin ono’ware:geh.
If you are transplanted to somebody else’s part of the earth, you need to go home and help your children to reconnect to their mother so they can be whole again.  When all people do this the desecration of mother earth will end.
teiohateh is the formula for peace and perpetual co-existance between different peoples. We have been trying since 1701 to teach the Europeans this philosophy. We went to London in 1710 to spread the teiohateh concept to the European monarchs and their people. The monarchs saw they would lose their hierarchical paternal control structure. 65 years later they engineered the first modern day “false flag” war called the American Revolution. They used their army to chop down the actual tree of peace that stood for 3,300 years at Onondaga. The tree was the physical evidence of Dekanawida and the Great Peace. Then the Europeans established the Republic of War, the USA, and set out to annihilate us.
"An island where I can store my money."
“An island where I can store the money.”
teiohateh allowed them to live here under our protection in perpetual peace. It was and still is an experiment to use the good mind. Our goal has always been to achieve peace throughout the world for everyone.
Anyone who sees our land as something to monetize, fractionalize and rationalize has to leave and return to their own land where they will be cured of this ailment. This is the problem on earth today. They ran away from their own mothers.  Like all runaways, they will never find peace until they heal with their mother. Only then can they stop desecrating their mother.
"Goo goo! I want my mommy!
“Mummy, can you put more cream on my sore bum?”
The festering pimple at 6 Nay has started to spread its roots to Ottawa. The only cure for this type of extreme diaper rash is what the immortal Bo Diddley sings: “You gonna be sorry that you left me alone. You’re gonna be sorry. Pack your bags and now you gone. You’re gonna be sorry. Tried everything to get along with you. You’re gonna be sorry. I tried every little thing I knew how to do. You’re gonna be sorry. You don’t love me no mo’ was the reason why you gonna go. Back Home. Go back home.”

Mohawk Nation News 'You're a Bad Boy, Murray Sinclair'

YOU’RE A BAD BAD BOY, MURRAY SINCLAIR!

mnnlogo1
Please post & distribute. Nia:wen.
MNN. June 3, 2015. Judge Murray Sinclair of the private Truth and Reconciliation Commission Inc., reminds us of the Warren Commission on the cover-up of the Kennedy Assassination. You were authorized by our butchers, the CROWN, to complete their goal of getting away with genocide. You made an oath to the Templar Bar in London when you became a bar lawyer.  You are an agent of the CROWN.
Murray, tell me who you didn't get!
Queenie: “Have you got me covered, Murray!” 
Instead of charging the CROWN, you suggest that we all take an oath to our murderers. Should the oath be, “Please don’t murder anymore of our children, Queenie?” You are protecting the large population of settler colonialists who are illegal immigrants on our land. They benefitted the most from this genocide. We are the direct line of the first people of ono’ware:geh, tied to our mother through the women. Foreigners can never have this relationship, as clearly expressed in the teio’ha:the. The incorporated INDIANS have already taken an oath to assist in completing the CROWN’s business plan for total termination by 2024. All your recommendations amount to a grand sweeping of all your colonial dirt under a big royal carpet.
Judge Sinclair, can i have your autograph?
“Oh, it’s Judge Sinclair! Can I have an autograph?”
Their mother is from across the ocean. They will never know peace until they go home. They arrived here sickly. We and our good mother took care of them. Land was set aside where they could live, practice their beliefs and make laws for themselves, until their mother calls them home. When the babysitters are abused, neglected, and their funds withheld, they just won’t babysit anymore. The invaders want to continue to rape and desecrate our mother for the benefit of their pyramidal shareholders. They illegally took over our land using their Admiralty matrix, which is a complete illusion.
Their idea of citizenship within their Admiralty matrix is for them to have complete sovereignty over us.kaia’nereh:kowa, our constitution, the law of the land, won’t allow this.
Early in our relationship, the women saw them as iah onkweh ti and suggested they return to their origins. We saw their mind was dishonest and they were ruthless. We took them into the sanctity of our home and family. We saw their paedophilic ways and knew we could not trust them with our children. To protect them, it was decided they should live apart from us according to the teiohateh. Residential schools are no longer visible. It is now the “missing and murdered women” which has been institutionalized.
Man-made laws and laws of nature are different. All humans, animals, plants and living things have their territory that sustains them. The white man took over the role of mother nature with their corporate Admiralty statute law.
Their genocide continues with economic sanctions against us, criminalization, targeting, denying us use of our lands and interfering with our efforts to support ourselves. “Sorry for murdering and robbing you” means nothing. You can’t fix what you broke. You will not decide the reconciliation for your brutality. You still want total extermination. You criminals will answer for this in a proper international venue.
tehonwatisokwariteh

We don’t want revenge. We want to make a better future for our children. The offer of their fiat currency is their attempt to buy their way out of the crime. Manipulating our minds is over. We cleaned our eyes with the softest skin and ears with the eagle feather. We see their agenda clearly. We call our international partners of the world to apply pressure on the corporation called Canada and hold them accountable for the crime of genocide.
We are a united people who will establish peace by any means necessary. The black wampum is the last offering of peace when we have exhausted all avenues. All animals in nature avoid conflict. Bear, wolf and others will try to run away from a fight. When they are put in a dangerous situation, they will defend themselves. Every living thing on earth has that right to self-preservation.
As George Thorogood suggests about Murray “Terminator” Sinclair, “On the day I was born, the nurses all gathered ‘round. And they gazed in wide wonder at the joy they had found. The head nurse spoke up, said “Leave this one alone”. She could tell right away that I was bad to the bone!”
