<p>You said it much better than I ever could have, Rosemary! Thank
you for standing with Standing Rock and their supporters (count me
included). Pipelines have proven to be disasters happening over
and over, and add to that the invasion and intrusion on First
Nation/Native Lands? What a mess, and what a disgrace we are to
the world...</p>

answer to the “real question” is simple. My major areas of
study both as an under grad and grad student was the
American West. I certainly do not claim that I am expert in
the field but I have some familiarity with the subject. It
is, sadly, a fact that almost without exception (I am
inclined to say it is always the rule) every single instant
of the diminishment of tribal lands was due to broken
treaties and settler encroachment. Because the closest
example and the easiest access to that perfidious behavior
can be found literally in our own backyard I linked to the
Nez Perce site. As to the tribal record you shared, I can
make no comment as I am not familiar with the Nations or
council involved. And, even if I were, trust me, the last
thing Native people need or want is white people explaining
the meaning behind their statements. I prefer to keep my
trap shut while watching the videos and still photos of
those heroic people who are enduring blizzards in sub
freezing weather to honor their ancestors and their
connection to sacred ground. Actions are so much more
powerful that words, aren’t they?<o:p></o:p></span></p>

And, by the way, as an ordinary citizen, and not uniquely
related to the Standing Rock issue, I am totally opposed to
the pipelines which, (please mark my words) are ecological
disasters waiting to happen, will not provide sustained
employment, and should never have been allowed in the first
place – in short, and as you always suspected (if you gave
it a thought, and really why would you) I’m just a liberal
progressive with a conscience and an abiding love and
respect for Mother Earth.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

so much for posting this Tom. The tragic,
indeed horrendous, history of the U.S.
government/citizens (consisting primarily of
ethically European settlers) stealing land
and ignoring treaties is shameful. Everyone
of us lives on stolen land. (Please spare me
the excuse that what great, great grandpa
and grandma did isn't your fault. The
failure to acknowledge that the genocide of
indigenous people is an under told and
accurate history of the U.S. and is central
to understanding that the bedrock U.S.
philosophy was and remains might makes
right.)</span> <o:p></o:p></p>
