Arizona's Universities are Instruments of War

TUCSON, Arizona -- When Arizona's largest universities slammed down on Palestine supporters, it was obvious they were hiding something. What they were hiding was the fact that they are thriving on war dollars.

STANDING ROCK LAKOTA NATION -- Standing Rock's burial place of an elite warrior society was bulldozed by Energy Transfer. While Water Protectors rushed to defend the sacred place, the security hired by Dakota Access Pipeline brought in vicious attack dogs.

The Standing Rock Lakota Nation has filed a new fedral lawsuit against the Army Corps of Engineers in Washington describing its threat to the water, and how Energy Transfer bulldozed the burial places of their elite warrior society. The Standing Rock Sioux Tribe demands the immediate shut down of the pipeline.

In a separate lawsuit in North Dakota state court, Energy Transfer is carrying out a fishing expedition, serving media and Water Protectors with third party subpoenas for the case slated in court for February 2025.
