Lakota Sioux - The Bravest Americans Date: Mon, 24 Dec 2007 12:07:44 -0600 (CST) When I get some rebuttal of all of this that doesn't pretend this was a delegation of only Russel Means, I will address it. Any that deliberately ignore this fact will be, in turn, ignored. http://eeng.net/CS/blogs/smileycoyote/archive/2007/12/24/1042.aspx Now let's think this through: five days have elapsed and if any major First Nations spokesperson or group or tribal council is standing against the Lakotah secession, they remain unheard. This is extremely auspicious inofitself. I don't think I am off base when I say that there are responsible individuals and groups amongst First Nations tribes and that, therefore, were this not something everyone concerned really wanted to work then we would have heard something by now. I have personally sent messages to John Trudell and Honor the Earth and this was two days ago. Still nothing. To my knowledge, each and every of the accumulating mound of objections from many online (any from native leadership remain an exception) cite Russel Means' personal problems as reason to ignore this and, consistently, what is deliberately ignored by these unverifiable sources is that there are three others that will have to be discredited to debunk all of this and, to tell you the truth, now that we can see than nearly everyone (with the exception of some heads of state and some of the world's best known news services) is silent on this all then any sudden proclamation of invalidity would indicate, in all likelihood, that someone sensed a turning of the tide. Doesn't anyone remember how the French revolution started? We have become such spectators in our very lives that when called to action the people all stand and wait to see if anyone else will answer. Is anyone answering? Word out of Lakotah country seems mixed as well and if nothing else, this stands to be remembered as a few people with chutzpah standing up and challenging the people to take what was theirs and the sheeple answering, "Baa-aaahhh!" Still, I have hope. After all, each minute that ticks by further validates all of this.
