Listen to audio at MNN: https://mohawknationnews.com/blog/2021/08/21/canada-u-s-are-traitor-dumping-grounds-audio/

MNN. 21 Aug. 2021. The Taliban in Afghanistan, defeated the Americans in an un declared war. Canada did not declare war on the indigenous when they set out to murder millions of our people and children for our land and resources.

The Taliban defeated the so-called NATO super powers of the world, Britain, Soviet Union and U.S. Now they refuse to have diplomatic relations with the victors, except for China. The Afghans wanted the Americans out and never accepted foreign occupation.

No war was ever declared on us on turtle island. Therefore, there was no conquest, no surrender. and no defeat in battle, let alone a war. We never gave up anything. Canada is not sovereign. It’s a a resource extraction corporation with private shareholders which will soon be dissolved for being genociders. Like the indigenous of turtle island Afghanistan is sovereign.
