“Are you Oglala or Wasicu?”

[Prairyearth]

Are you Oglala or Wasicu?

By Charmaine White Face

The question was raised at a recent meeting called by Oglala Sioux Tribal President John Yellow Bird Steele about the idea of mining uranium on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation, “Are you Oglala or Wasicu?”


If a person is Oglala, or Anishinabeg, or Dine, or from any other Indigenous nation that is trying desperately to retain their Indigenous values, the answer to the possibility of mining uranium is a simple and resounding “No!” The answer “yes” to the question of mining uranium reflects the values of the wasicu, or the white man, and the Lakota word wasicu literally means “takes the fat” for a reason.

All of the Indigneous nations understood what uranium was in their own terms and their own cultures. The Dine (Navajo) called it “the yellow monster.” An Oglala holy man spoke of only those who had a dream and were protected could go into areas where uranium was naturally occurring. The understanding is entirely different than viewing uranium according to the wasicus as an energy source, or natural resource. Mitochondria in the cell is also a source of energy that wasicu scientists still do not understand, and their study of the cell is a lot older than the study of uranium.

John Yellow Bird Steele, as the president of one of the poorest tribes on the North American continent, is in the unenviable position of trying to improve the economic conditions on the reservation while at the same time trying to stay within the cultural, traditional values of the Oglala people. With the price of uranium soon to be reaching the $200 per pound category, and with uranium located all over the region, he called a meeting to discuss an offer made to the previous tribal president, Cecilia Fire Thunder. As the new Tribal President, he has been asked to sign a Memorandum of Agreement with the mining entity, Native American Energy Group (NAEG).

The slick handout from NAEG has a quote from Leonard Peltier on its front cover which states:

“I heard about your company and all the good things you are doing for Native Americans. Our people are good and deserve a chance to live a better life. Too many companies say they want to help, but in the end they only help themselves to our resources and give us barely enough to survive. I knew in my heart that someday a company like yours would come, a company that does not take advantage of us and truly wants to help. I heave heard about your “Tribal Empowerment Program”, and I wish to be a member and supporter. My supporters and followers also pledge their complete support for your company as well.”

A woman at the meeting said she was going to contact Leonard to see if he really did say these things, and to let him know what NAEG is planning for the Pine Ridge Reservation.

The handout further stated: “Native American Energy Group is an energy company that was originally founded in 2001 to develop energy resources on Native American reservations in the United States. Upon inception, the founders of the Company initiated its current philosophy of commitment and dedication to create opportunities for an emerging group of American Indian Nations with abundant natural resources, to become producing nations which explore, produce and control their own natural resources.”

Again, we have an entity planning to come into the last Oglala territory and impose their philosophy in typical colonizing fashion. If NAEG was truly cognizant of Oglala philosophy and values, they would know in the first place not to call Ina Makoce “natural resources.” If they understood the vast difference in philosophy between the Oglalas and the Wasicus, they would have known better than to even try to recommend destroying and hurting her by mining.

Even more unconscionable is the idea of waving the possibility of multimillion dollars in front of tribal presidents responsible for the economic development of a reservation that is slated for poverty by design. It is not just the epitome of colonialism, but is the equivalent of the guard of this prisoner of war camp opening the gate and telling the prison leader he will be free. Upon running, the prisoner will be shot for escaping, only in this case the bullet will be the unseen, unsmelled, untasted form of nuclear radiation.

OST President John Steele is right to gather more heads together than just the OST Executive Committee, his own group of advisors, or even the entire Tribal Council when trying to decide what to do about something as dangerous as uranium mining. Along with the current tribal ban on mining on the reservation, President Steele needs to arm himself with as much information and advice as he can muster to fend off the other uranium mining companies that are sure to come knocking on the door soon.

The Task Force he established was originally called the Uranium Mining Task Force but after the presentations and discussions, concluding with the question of “Are we Oglala or Wasicu?” the group changed the name to the Natural Resources Protection Task Force. The new name fits according to wasicu philosophy and understanding. If it were totally according to Oglala understanding, there would be no need for any Task Force as we would all know that we must always protect Ina Makoce (Mother Earth) and we would never talk about mining. But the colonization and forced cultural genocide has succeeded so well that we must continue to learn all we can according to the wasicu philosophy and understanding, then discuss with each other and remind ourselves of what it is in Oglala terms and values.

The front line helping President Steele is the young, educated, and culturally aware staff that currently comprises the Oglala Sioux Tribe Environmental Protection Office and Natural Resources Regulatory Agency. If politics and corruption don’t interfere and they are allowed to do their jobs, the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation may be one of the last places left in the Upper Midwest that is not completely polluted by nuclear radiation.

I Agree, But I Think The Question Is Better Answered: Are You Alive Or CORPORATELY DEAD?

Color Of Skin Matters Not When People Are Being POISINED BY CORPORATE ACTIVITY!

I See The Need To Identify The Division's Between You, But Do Not Become That Which Created The Division's In The First Place. Do Your Ceremonies, Listen For Instructions, Love And Include All Who Will Walk With You In A Good Way, Walk Past Those Who Create Harm Or Division.

Prairy, I Know You Are Hurting, And There Is No Way That You Are An "Enviromental Terrorist" As There Is No Such Think In The Face Of The History Of The CORPORATE ACTIVITY FOR THE LAST 400 Years Of Resource Theft By DECLARATION AND DOMINION OF THE CORPORATIONS Upon Turtle Island. I Love You And Stand With You And All Those Among Our Relations' Whom Posses The Good Mind And Good Heart Of Peace.

Race Has Nothing To Do With Issue: Compliance To An Unlawful Jurisdiction Has Everything To Do With Enabling It: To Quote The CORPORATE HEAD-CEO: GEORGE BUSH: "IF YOU AIN'T WITH US: YOUR AGAINST US..."

Well I Am One Against Ignorance And Division By Association.....Keep Smiling The Fiction's Are On The Run.

Sharbot Lake Rejects Offer



In Sharbot Lake within the past couple of months a

small number of the Algonquins from the Ardoch

First Nation repatriated their unceded traditional

lands, still currently used by Natives and Non-

Natives for hunting and fishing.



In the same area in Northern Ontario, a corporation

called FRONTENAC VENTURES has been "testing"

the area for "possible" uranium mining for a few

years. The area they repatriated is currently under

negotiations with CANADA. However these

negotiations are "on hold" by CANADA. Yet

FRONTENAC still has a license to carry on with

their "testing".



Yesterday Frontenac Ventures made a financial

offer to the Algonquins of Ardoch First Nation.

This financial offer was flat out rejected by the

Algonquins. No amount of money can ever compensate

them for the likelihood of death, cancer, mutated

births, still births, sterilization and other health risks

that will arise as a direct result of uranium mining.



The health risks are too great for our future generations.

The environmental damage will be substantial and

unstoppable. Why take the risk with any of our

children? The responsibility of our people is to

maintain life for our future generations. That's all

aspects of life. The plant life, animal life and human life.

We are born with a responsibility to protect life, no

matter what the cost is to us.



The Algonquins need our support as they are undertaking

a HUGE responsibility. They are fighting to protect

practically the whole watershed of Northeastern Ontario.

Everyone connected to that watershed will benefit, when

the Algonquins are successful.



When asked about the financial offer one Algonquin

stated, "...we can not be bought. (the land repatriation is)

Not about money..."

Here Is An Update: See Yourselves In These Mocasin's!

SPECIAL MNN REPORT:
IS CANADA THE WORLD’S “BUTT HOLE”
FOR TESTING BOMBS AND WMDs??
Sombody’s making deals with the devil!
July 26, 2007

“Ye Shall Know them by the Company they Keep” [from somewhere in the Bible?]

Ardoch Algonquin First Nation and Sharbot Obaadjiwan First Nation will be conducting a protest and information toll on Highway 7 in Perth on July 28th from 3pm-6pm. They want to stop uranium exploration and mining in North Frontenac County, 42 miles north of Kingson Ontario Canada. [For more information contact Chief Paula Sherman omanikwe@bell.blackberry.net 613-329-3706, Bob Lovelace at 613-374-5598, Chief Randy Cota 613-541-8205, Lynn Daniluk at 613-268-2746 and Ormond Lee at 613-267-7584]

In a Memorandum of Understanding “Mining Resources Engineering Limited” MREL is continuing its weapons making and bomb exploding activities on Algonquin lands. We investigated and found a frightening profile on MREL.

MREL Encampment in the Bush

Their weapons testing is unacceptable! On July 13, 2007, some Indigenous people stumbled on their “secret” lab and explosive testing encampment in the bush on Sharbot Lake. They probably need to clean up some evidence of their questionable activities? We are now in the know! They are making weapons of genocide to be used on our people elsewhere in the world and, who knows, maybe even on us.

MREL tries to stay anonymous. Bill Bauer, the head, keeps company with some big guys in the BIG LEAGUE. Yes, the Department of National Defense Canada [DND] and the U.S. Department of Defense [DOD] are some of MREL’s biggest customers. They work secretly for the sake of “national security”, calling it “R&D” [Research & Development]. We know they don’t care about ‘our’ security. Why do we get the feeling that there’s a lot of “insanity” going on here? [Ask Bill Bauer of MREL at 613-545-0466 (111)Cell 613-530-0777. MREL hides out in Kingston].

Why should these secret companies and agencies know more about our security than us? We are the original owners of the land, and there are non-native settlers who live on our land.

Mysterious MREL has the high tech equipment to measure all forms of radiation. They provide their services to test weapons they call “explosives” at their unique “state of the art” at a remote facility in the wilderness of Algonquin territory.

For years MREL has been making a lot of noise in the Algonquin countryside. Their explosions can be heard and felt for miles around. Farmers have moved away because the noise causes their cows and goats to miscarry. [Are these lands going to become uninhabitable for hundreds of years?]

Unless one is close to the explosions, they aren't likely to notice any smoke or odor. MREL uses high tech equipment to monitor the winds and other elements. Explosions are set off when the wind can blow the smoke away from human settlement into the bush, where it supposedly dissipates without causing any harm. Not true.

No Uranium Mining!

This summer up to 200 Algonquins and Allies are encamped at the Robertsville mine site, blocking road access to MREL's 400 acre “facility” to stop a uranium mine that Frontenac Venture wants to open up. It’s just beyond MREL's "property".

Babies and small children are in the mine site camp where “tremolite”, a radioactive form of asbestos was once processed. The Algonquins have not been consulted, but they know the unseen dangers of radiation at the mine site. They know about the toxic chemicals and radiation and nuclear waste MREL left behind. Where is unbiased person with the diagnostic equipment to monitor the pollution?

The Algonquins wait and wonder what Canada, Frontenac Ventures, OPP, and so on will do next. They have a nerve to sue us for $77 million for trespassing and destroying our land? They should be sued for criminal intent to harm us.

Are MREL/DND/DRDC [Defense Research sector of DND] letting the encamped Algonquins and allies simmer in radioactivity to see what will become of them? Both Indigenous people and soldiers (not generals and military industry CEO's) have been subjected to toxic biological and chemical substances in experiments. They are top secret until they get exposed by the victims or their families. Their stories never get public attention until the next crisis hits another community. Is it our turn now?

CADSI, the “Merchants of Death”

CADSI, Canadian Association of Defense & Security Industry” has a website with a list of suppliers to the military. MREL is on this list. So is “Blaney McMurtry” which is touted as “legal experts” for the defense industry.

Toronto-based Blaney McMurtry also represents the Algonquins of Ontario in their “sovereignty” and “land claims” negotiations with the Canadian and Ontario governments and their agents, the Ontario Provincial Police OPP, etc. They are at “cross purposes”. It’s a conflict of interest! They seem to have lost all perspective, big time! AAFNA presently has a lawyer, Chris Reid, from Toronto.

To add to the complications, some of the encamped Algonquins are OPP officers! What’s their role? Are they breaking Canadian law as trespassers or are they there to enforce the colonial law as OPP?

Some call the CADSI a list of the "Canadian Merchants of Death". They are involved in war and the current escalating militarization of the globe.

Minister of Defense, Gordon O’Connor

On the CADSI list is “Hill & Knowlton”, a well known lobby firm for the Canadian military industry. Gordon O'Connor, Member of Parliament for Carleton-Mississippi Mills and the present Minister of Defense, is a former employee of Hill & Knowlton. [Oh! Oh! Internectine incest here!]

When asked about the possible conflict of interest, Gord glibly said, "Just watch me!" What does Gord know about MREL's contracts with the DND which he oversees? He seems unconcerned about the people in his own riding who are being affected by MREL"s toxic airborne wastes and the Frontenac Ventures uranium mine if it is developed. Gord might have refurbished the old “Diefenbunker” and brought it up to snuff! [With an underground passage to it!]

DND “Top Secret” work at Sharbot Lake

How can we learn how MREL's work is affecting us when it is under “secret” contract to DND? According to international law we have human rights to clean air, water, soil and food.

We are told MREL is doing research on “anti-terrorism”, testing ways to stop car bombs (IED's). If anyone is testing methods to stop a car bomb, they have to blow up a car bomb, including the RDD radiological dispersal device and the car! Many cars, vans and shipping containers are being blown up. [All this just to conquer or kill poor people who are defending themselves!!]

Chemicals will spill on the ground. There will be huge holes in the ground. Toxic smoke will drift from the burning car and explosives. MREL has robots and radiation equipment to do all this at their “secret location” way in the bush. They call it an ideal "remote location" near Sharbot Lake.

MREL’s “FIXOR”

On the CADSI website MREL describes itself in glowing terms. “Our flagship product is FIXOR which will fix most anything. It contains two plastic bottles, one with FIXOR flammable liquid and the other with FIXOR powder. The liquid is poured into the other bottle, shaken and the bomb is formed. If it isn’t thrown at somebody or something, after a time FIXOR becomes non-explosive and easily transportable. FIXOR is for those who need “all purpose” bombs. [Remember, we were the first victims of the “Gatling guns” when the U.S. Army when it mounted it on a train bed and mowed us down!]

FIXOR formed the core of the AquaRam line of tactical disrupters for any EOD threat. It uses an explosive driven water that can take out a target with little collateral damage. The “mode d’imploi” for use is on each container in both official languages!

Native and settler residents were outraged. We found out about this when Frontenac Ventures got a permit to mine uranium right near the MREL explosion facilities. How handy for MREL! They’ll have a chance to use their expensive equipment.

MREL calls their projects "Humanitarian Demining" (HD)! [This is a new one! They have some “word smiths” on their payroll!] It’s one of Canada's image building campaigns launched by Lloyd Axworthy. They even Boast about a "green" explosive, a totally biodegradable bomb! [Maybe it’s a fart! Those guys appear like they could do big ones!]

Conclusion

It is like sitting in a living room watching television. Something is going on in a secret room in another part of the house. We hear strange noises and goings on. We don’t know what they are doing. We are getting some hints. Finally we see someone and ask, “What’s going on?”

They answer, “Nothing. Just trust us. We know what we are doing. Enjoy yourself while we do all these things to you”. Meanwhile a greenish deadly cloud comes floating out of the room. It starts to eat up the house, the environment and the people. It gets into the atmosphere, the water and everybody starts to get sick.

Finally, someone close to us gets violently sick and we take them to the hospital. The doctors don’t know what is causing the convulsions and the sickness. The people from the secret room say, “We can’t tell you. It’s a secret”.

Why didn’t we ask what these mad scientists were doing behind closed doors? We can’t trust them. What if this kind of sickness goes everywhere, into nearby cities? Everyone will be affected, even the mad scientists.

Nobody wants to test bombs on their own land except Canada. Canada has no shame and no respect for itself. No shame. It’s opened up our land for testing lethal weapons that will destroy us and our land. Are Indigenous people and the Canadian public being experimented upon?

“Resource BioMedical” works with those immunoassay systems mentioned in the CRTI symposium document quoted above. It is not known if they are directly involved with a CRTI project. [But they’re cozying up real quick].

They also trade on TSX Ventures.

Biodefense

20. "Update: Biodefense product and industry news: The RAMP® System is the new gold standard in biological field detection. RAMP provides first responders, military personnel and public safety workers, and those responsible for facility security with rapid, on-site, reliable information”. [There you go! If you get killed, they’ll quickly claim your body for scientific study. If you get injured, you’re on your own!] They do tests for anthrax, ricin, bottox and pox." [Isn’t this used for getting rid of wrinkles and creating big artificial oversized blubbery lips?}

Response Medical Corp.

21. BioMedical just received some big bucks. http://www.responsebio.com. On July 24, 2007 Response Biomedical Corporation announced that they closed the financing announced July 9, 2007, raising $12 million. It was a “bought deal private placement whereby the Company issued 12,000,000 common shares at a price of $1.00 for each common share." [When is the U.S. going to get off its “war economy” and get back to a “people based” economy?]

An original poem by Trudi Blue/BlueT

Occupation Hazard
__________________
There's a burnin'
churnin'
brewing inside
the core
culprits trying to hide
the uranium treat
one can feel the beat
of the Lakota heart
there's a burnin'
churnin'
inside out
the Black Hills shout
one can hear the echo cry
of an Eagle sigh
the uranium fix
killing the natural mix
of the Spirit Sacred Land
there's a burnin'
churnin'
inside out
the people shout
occupation hazard at hand
NOW the heart beat
of the Lakota
shall pump
the spiritual red blood
through the veins
of the Black Hills
because uranium kills
Lakota medicine
is Sacred
a stop sign
a red light shine
a Lakota occupy
they always have
and always will
their heart beat
can't be beat !
give it up
you culprits !
occupation hazard
watch your move
the raptor watches
moves about, soars above
and protects
the Heart of Lakota Land.
The Paha Sapa.
