SCARY!
As one of a gazillion survivors of genocide, it is amazing how folks manage to survive in this world gone INSANE! This blog is one of many things I do to not only keep myself sane, but in hopes of effecting some sort of change in the world, whether or not I am allotted the privilege of seeing it.

Heddy ("That's Hedley!") Hedley: "Crimes?"
Criminal: "Rape, cattle rustling, general mayhem, and rape."
Hedley: "You said rape twice."
Criminal: "I like rape."

Yesterday we had our first guests at our house, Dean Lookinghawk and his wife Mary, and Russell and Pearl Means.
Russell is a longtime activist. He's been around a long time. He was at the occupation of Wounded Knee in '73, has a book out, a website, etc.
He was on "Mitakuye Oyasin" radio program, with Dean, Louis Sowa, and I. He had a lot of important things to say about the state of America. With the help of Louis, that show may be up on the KBOO website sometime in the near future.
Afterward, they all came to our new house and Shusli and I enjoyed all of their company, we had a good time.
Russell said he had forgot to say something to the women out there. He had asked some elder women who had been in long term relationships how they made it work. They told him that they treat their husbands like they are 12-years-old. Men, they said, will do three things: pout, throw tantrums, and want their moms. If women can understand that, then their lives will be much easier. Shusli almost choked on her water when he said this. OK, I admit it, it works, so before you guyst start whining and throwing tantrums...Pearl made mention of how he had called her in New Mexico to ask where something was in their house in South Dakota, and she told him. We all had a good laugh. It was fun!
Shusli's knee isn't so good at the moment, so when we offered food, Mary and Pearl got up to help. After showing them where things were, and Pearl finding a bread knife that I wasn't able to, I was basically kicked out of the kitchen and they prepared a wonderful little feast.
Shusli gave them some of her wonderful Huckleberry Jam, which Russel opened a jar and we ate half of before they left. Good times were had by all.
[side note: Hey U.S. I am hearing a few rumors that, if like you wonderful idea of the '60's, Operation Northwoods, will hopefully not come true. There are a few possible consipiracy theories out there that in the next couple of weeks, you government types want to be at war with Iran. Is that true? As well, there is an alleged operation Northwoods type activity goin' on stating that you, the U.S. government, plan on staging attacks on the American people in shopping malls so you all can instate martial law and a few other delicious oppressive laws. Is that true?]
I guess that's about all for now. Thanks, folks. Sorry I haven't been writing more, we've been busy moving.

Wait a minute. Isn't Obama attempt to escalate the war with Afghanistan? So, he is a man of war (including the continued war in Iraq), and wins the Nobel Peace Prize.
Well, Henry Kissinger won it, too. Hank is only wanted in 3 countries for war crimes. You're gonna have to work hard to catch up, Barack.
Oh, yeah, and Archbishop Stepinac was going to be cannonized as a saint by the Vatican Crime Organization. There were lots of protests over that though considering his genocide against the orthodox Serbs during WWII.

I hate the historical figure, Vatican Crime Boss, Pope Pius XII. I have in my lineup, next on my list in fact, "Hitler's Pope: The Secret History of Pius XII," by John Cornwell.
I saw at the library a CD copy of "A Special Mission: Hitler's Secret Plot to Seize the Vatican and Kidnap Pope Pius XII," by Dan Kurzman. I have only listened to the first of the 8 cd's, and find it very fascinating. I don't find what Dan says fascinating, but more what he doesn't say.
Allegedly, Karl Wolff was supposed to kidnap and steal the Vatican's stolen wealth when they occupied Rome after Mussolini was ousted. Dan's writing makes one feel sympathy not only for the Nazi's he talks about, but also for the misunderstood Torquemada. What Dan doesn't mention are some very relevant facts to the case. Eugenio Pacelli, better known by his Vatican Crime Boss name, Pope Pius XII, signed the Lateran treaty with Mussolini and the Reichskonkordat with the Nazi's, putting the full force of the Vatican Crime Organization behind the fascists because he recognized that he could ride on their power to gain global power.
Allegedly, John Cornwell took back some of his allegations, however, Arvo Manhattan never has.
For those of you who have been reading this blog, you know that Eugenio Pacelli oversaw the Ustashi in Croatia with a VCO crime boss by the name of Archbishop Stepinac. You've undoubtedly read my posts about Jasenovac and Arvo Manhattan. If not, search them out and read.
Pacelli was also helpful with The Rat Line, in which the Vatican Crime Organization helped get Nazi's and Ustashi to such friendly nations as the U.S., Australia, and Argentina. So, to fantasize that this criminal bastard helped and saved many Jews is a bunch of BULLSHIT! He did, however, help in the slaughter of many orthodox Serbs, such as the one pictured below. My understanding is that the saw is in a museum near Gradina.

Yesterday, Saturday, October 3, 2009, Shusli and I went to see Derrick Jensen speak at the First Unitarian Church in beautiful downtown Portland. He was here as part of what is called Econvergance.
Derrick is a well known "anti-civ" author. His books include "Endgame," "The Culture of Make Believe," "A Language Older Than Words," "Walking on Water," and about 10 others. Shusli and I highly recommend reading all of them.
Prior to his talk, I watched Derrick walk in down the aisle like he was part of the audience. He talked with folks he knew like all the audience members were doing, and there was no crazy fanfare as is usually involved with celebrity and semi-celebrity types.
Derrick is a strong non-indigenous ally of us indigenous types, one of the strongest I have ever met. He is a rare clear thinker who sees things for what they are and writes about them as such. Civilization is killing the planet. He points out the polluted rivers, air, landbase. He points out the slaughter of millions and that the U.S. is a nation of occupation. He is a teacher of this knowledge. And he asks that all important and rather dangerous question: What are we going to do about it?
If corporations were poisoning your kids, what would you do? If corporations and the government they own were putting toxins in the breast milk of women, what would you do? If corporations were posioning our rivers and making our salmon go extinct, what would you do? And coporations are doing just that and so much more, and what are we going to do about it? What is your threshold? What is the final straw before you do your part? Not an easy question to answer. Not black and white at all.
A young woman stood up during the Q and A and stated she doesn't want to go to prison or die or anything like that, so who is gonna do any of the things that need to get done (such as taking out a dam or two so the salmon and other species and humans can live)? Derrick pointed out that only 2% of the Irish Republican Army took up arms. The rest were support folk protecting those that did so and helping them as best they could. She can do support for those of us who are willing to stand on the front lines.
"We are living in occupied territory..." Derrick stated at one point of his talk. Only three of us appluaded, Shusli, me, and a powerful writer and thinker from BC named Waziyatawin. We must have been the only three indigenous types in the church. It is telling of the "convergence" of native and non-native resistance and understanding.
So, the question is: What are we gonna do about the destruction of the salmon and all of the natural world? What is our threshold before we finally do something, anything?
