<br />
This week the United States Supreme Court denied the Wolfchild plaintiffs request for a hearing. This ends the 10 year legal pursuit of the Mdewakanton Dakota plight for justice in the Wolfchild vs US case in the Court of Federal Claims. The Mohrman & Kaardal law firm handled this case all the way to the US Supreme Court.<br />
<br />
The loss of this case is of great disappointment to the Mdewakanton Dakota Nation in it's effort to claim recognition as the true Minnesota Mdewakanton Dakota Nation.<br />
Many Dakota have been disenfranchised as a result of the Department of Interior's neglect and abuse in the handling of their federal trust.<br />
<br />
In the interim the three "Dakota" communities of Lower Sioux, Prairie Island and Shakopee have usurped the federal recognition and dismantled the trust for their own benefit and purposes. They now control multi-million dollar businesses while portraying themselves as "American Indian" communities with rights to establish gaming industries.<br />
Of course during the entire litigation the "tribes" supported the Department of the Interior and the other government defendants.<br />
<br />
The story of this suit and all of the people involved goes all the way back to the Dakota Conflict of 1862 and even earlier in some respects. The entire history of the Minnesota Mdewakanton Dakota is entangled with the corrupt aspirations of the legal, business and governments interests of Minnesota.<br />
<br />
In the 1860's during the civil war the state of Minnesota was as a territory, a wannabe state if you will.

<strong><em><span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span></em></strong><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">The war between Christianity and the Indigenous people of the western hemisphere has been one of the world's longest wars. Beginning with the enslavement <span style="background-color: white;">of </span><span style="background-color: white;">the first</span><span style="background-color: yellow;"> </span><span style="background-color: white;">Indigenous members</span> of the western hemisphere to the imprisonment of the Indigenous children of Canada.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In the process of this proselytizing, the Church, any church, has destroyed the core value system of the American Indian. Hoping to replicate that system with the word of God as envisioned by the church leaders. But the church has bastardized the word of God and it's original purpose by imposing their own morals and values as the covenant.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">Christopher Columbus's
goal was not to advocate for religion, it was to find silk from
China. He did not enable Christianity but rather induced the slave
trade by abducting the Taino natives.</span><br />
<div align="LEFT" style="font-style: normal; font-weight: normal; margin-bottom: 0in;">
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">In John Hagee's book "Jerusalem Countdown," (A Prelude to War), (2006,2007), he interviews Bridgette Gabriel about the population explosion among the Muslims and "...terrorists breeding terrorists..." in the middle east and the world. Citing the Muslim's multiple wives protocol as the reason for the explosion and the problem it creates for Christian survival.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia" , "times new roman" , serif;">This same type of antagonistic Christian thinking in the western hemisphere was one impetus for a widespread pogrom of sterilization among Native women. Where mass assimilation and cultural indoctrination did not work in the "civilizing" of the Native populations, genetic annihilation and female sterilization became the Christian duty.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">As one of the largest corporations in the world during the 15th century the Church had to expand it's reign and thereby increase their resources, and silver and gold was always a power base for the church.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">The exploitation of the New World afforded the church an opportunity to expand it's power base and increase it's influence over the monarchy in charge. The monarchy in turn believed in the holy blessings of the church as they became the frontrunners for a new world order. "With God on Our side" became the ulterior mantra of the day, while the administrators dribbled a saliva of greed and gluttony.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">New World documents such as the Doctrine of Discovery, Manifest Destiny, and the Magna Carta became the tools of legitimacy in the church's headlong foray into it's evangelical work with the heathen, savage races of sub-human's, who obviously were in dire need of Jesus Christ and God Almighty.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">The existentialist spirituality of the Indigenous communities of the western hemisphere have always been innate. They make up the longest and most enduring of spiritual realms of the world. They still exist. They are pre-Columbian and post-Wounded Knee.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">The American Indian Religious Freedom Act of 1978 reaffirmed this existence.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">When the Jesuits and other evangelists made virgin contact with the Indigenous populace the assumption was that there was a sub-human race that had populated this wilderness and their way of life must be eradicated physically and spiritually. </span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">And eradicate they did, by fire, gun, cross, water, oil, disease, slavery, rape, pedophilia, forced labor and by eating the spirits of the true Indigenous people's of the western hemisphere.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">And they are still eating.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: "georgia";"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: "georgia";">But we are still here.</span><br />

<div style="text-align: center;">
<b><span style="font-family: "times" , "times new roman" , serif; font-size: large;">Ronald P. Leith (Ta-humpa Was'te, Good Moccasin)</span></b></div>
<br />
The fire that was set in Standing Rock by the Oceti Sakowin, NoDAPL, and a multitude of national and international participants has now spread across the United States and all over the world. The threat of total water pollution and clean water decimation has brought together people from all walks of life, all professions and a variety of grass roots movement who gather to serve one purpose.<br />
<br />
The blockade of corporate operations transporting oil from Canada to the United <br />
States and beyond has become a central objective for activists of all color, race and creed. Many of these activists have not had a confrontational background from which to draw an integral conflict strategy. Although the international history of non-violent action has left it's mark on many as a exemplary framework from which to create a new strategy for confrontation and conflict resolution.<br />
<br />
Peace has become the primary and preferable tool to be faithfully followed and utilized in the face of overt militaristic action, especially in the case of Standing Rock vs the Dakota Access Pipeline and their enforcers from Morton County, North Dakota and beyond.<br />
<br />
The international practice of non-violence has a demonstrated and lengthy history which include prominent players who are now an embedded part of world history. The effective legacy they have left us with proclaims victories many at Standing Rock may not have heard of, sought or recognized. Although they have proven to be highly effective nonetheless. So becoming peace activists in their own right they are creating a legacy of their own which includes non-violent strategies which have been stable and proven in history.<br />
<br />
The antagonist police state has evolved into multi-national corporate oligarchy, demonized corporation CEO's, and private armies of militarily trained goons. Not that much different from the Indian state police actors of Mahatma Ghandi's era or the southern city and state police of Martin Luther King's. Even though the names, faces and uniforms have changed the mission has remained the same. The protection and defense of imperialist colonialism and the development and the growth of the wealthy elite and their financial gain.<br />
<br />
As effective as the peace movements new efforts have been to defend the world's natural resources we still find that corporatism has an edge we cannot seem to dull or erode. This is the philosophical mindset empowered and emboldened by a select few who are careless, privileged and fearful of a future in which all are equal and the fiscal state is evenly distributed and balanced.<br />
<br />
Herein lies the opportunity for brave new tactics to be developed around peaceful opposition to a corporate imperialistic power which is longing to drain the earth of all it's life sustaining gas, minerals and energy. It's a preemptive strike which must be targeted at the corporate training modules current set in the primary and secondary educational milieus worldwide. These programs have been set by multi-national corporations seeking to train new megatronic, and industrialist classes which promulgate their ruling class systems.<br />
<br />
This demands a life changing educational model that is holistic driven around the inter-connectedness of all life and the vital understanding that when one part of the system is damaged we all suffer the consequences either in this life-time or our descendants suffer in their lifetime. Life success for one should not mean the denigration and cancellation of life for all, including those who cannot defend themselves.<br />
<br />
So while many of us are currently still in the field with our bandana's, long sleeves, provocative signs and dark glasses we need to send an army of educators out into the universe who will re-educate and implode the non-violent holistic approach to a proactive movement which will defend the earth against all corporate imperialistic machines.<br />
<br />
The current US administration is adamantly focused on dismantling all protective legal barriers to the self-destructive path of corporate and governmental entities who have deemed them to be a hindrance to America's growth. Clean water, unpolluted air, safe cars, stable housing are only a few of the targets chosen for disruption and elimination by the Trump administration.<br />
<br />
The frightening fact is not that they are becoming a reality, but rather that there are individuals in the corporate, educational and government fields that are standing by not making any attempt to curtail or stop these processes. And we know that those who do nothing are just as vulnerable as those who can do something.<br />
<br />
When apathy reigns in the face of self destruction a new path must be cleared for those who recognize and loathe the ultimate motive and outcome. While peaceful protests do bring worldwide attention and broadly educate it is also a reactionary method of disruption. Typically we end up in the court system where we may be heard or in some cases we may be disqualified as legitimate parties to the issue.<br />
<br />
The small pockets of re-training of what it means to be a community member has had effect but it is also taking the long way around. The New Age movement, the post Kent State strategists, and the Anti Vietnam War coalitions are just a few of the effective models developed and ensconced in the American revolutionary resistance tradition.<br />
<br />
But to have to reactivate these methods every ten years or so can be a diluting and nationally discouraging exercise making them ineffectual community exercises in futility. So effective change has to come on every societal level simultaneously in order to be sustainable, trusted and self-renewable. <br />
<br />
It's a complete re-thinking of what we need as opposed to what we want. That is a complete societal paradigm shift, a true reemergence of holistic philosophies which cross all international boundaries and cultural barriers. The entire propagandist framework currently set in place has to be reconstructed or dismantled entirely. Everything from advertising to taxes to congressional hearings and educational models.<br />
<br />
But we can only do this as a peaceful conglomerate, using anti-divisive propaganda and the language of unity. Some might say that this is anarchy, or modern day revisionism. No, this is life. The power to welcome and accept change on a global scale is a new direction, a fresh opportunity. Our international survival depends on it, our future as a humanity free of colonialist contamination calls for it, our willingness and fortitude toward survival demands it.<br />

reaching out for your help. For years i have been writing journals and
diaries of my life experiences surrounding my mothers unfortunate
unsolved murder. Her name is Susan Poupart and her case is listed on the
wiki online dictionary. I live in such a small community and her
murders are being protected by my community and the county in which i
live has had a hard time getting any involvement or help from these
people. I am real and my story is real i believe i am at the point in my
life where i can openly speak of my unfortunate circumstance. Her name
is real as well as our story. The men that took her life are going up
for trial within the next few years, in my hopes to shed some light on
the case i feel as if this is something i must do. For her as well as
myself and my family. It is my strength and determination that has
helped me cope with my reality of my situation. I feel as if i cannot
just sit here and remain silent anymore, i feel i owe it to her to do
something good for my self. I was only 3 when she was killed and sadly
have to memories or her which torments my soul with thoughts of my own
mortality and unresolved losses. I think it is my resilience of negative
thoughts and feeling my mind creates that sets me apart from the people
within my community, Lac du Flambeau Wisconsin. Sadly i am bound by
community because everyone knows and they cover it up for the sake of
these men that killed her. The guilt that haunts me and the pain i feel
of losing her, my anger, the confusion of the situation. Thats is why i
feel it is of great importance to me do this, i feel how can someone who
hasn't lived through my experiences could possibly relate let alone
understand how i felt in terms of living. i am convinced that my story
and my life has value for anyone struggling to overcome their troubled
past. I need to write this book to leave a record of my life and hers to
fully understand myself and my morals. So to the people where i have
been born and raised know of my courage and determination that has
emerged among unspeakable tragedy, destructive lifestyles i lived to
prove how important my healing is to me. My ordeal is real and i am
still here living with this situation while maintaining my self control
throughout my emotional as well as physical hardships bestowed upon me. I
need to convert these feeling and thoughts into something great to do
good for myself and my family. my whole life i lived in fear, darkness
and almost complete isolation and yet i managed to stay positive about
my life's situation. Liberation my freedom my joys my relief my
children. I am now a mother, yet my nightmare has continued. This loss i
have has giving me the ability to adapt and hide my pain, the confusion
and the alienation of it all. The ability to live with anonymity and
feelings of being mother and father less has become my inability to feel
safe or close to my loved ones. There is the unresolved bereavement,
shame and my inability to remember her and what our life should and or
could have been if she wasn't killed and the continuing fear and hatred
for these men that raped and murdered her, whom go with out punishment.
Recovered, relived and recognize my grief and pain to resolve some
issues i have been dealing with for the better part of 24
years.Remaining quiet among the mist of this horror and unbelievable
loss with out feeling as if i am or was going crazy or falling apart. I
learned to hide my emotions, i would image it wasn't real it wasn't
happening to me that i could run and hide i could pretend i was someone
else. Thus in which as giving me the ability to be unobtrusive to
disappear as she did. Thus has left me convictions that i could never
depend on others for security and understanding or safety. Over the
years i have been painfully reflecting on my uncomfortable past and
present situation getting my self ready for the trials to come. What has
enabled me to be so resilient so good nature, is it my refusal to allow
painful memories affect me now as an adult, or is it facing these men
with my rage and sorrow that leads me more directly towards resolution.
They may have raped and murdered her took her away from me but i will
not allow them to break my spirit. I refuse to feel as if i am a victim
of this heinousness crime. I am a survivor and self confidence is the
key to my survival that has given me a sense of who i am. I struggle
everyday and will so until this has come to an end. My experiences that i
lived throughout the chaos of my life i have made it and it has made me
the better person i know my mother would have raised me to be if only
giving the chance. it has taking me years to understand but i am
beginning to understand how it happened and what they did to her and
what they did to me. <br />
I am real as well as my story.<br />
Susan R. Poupart is her name and she was real.<br />
You can do some research on her and if u feel as if this is my time to get my story heard, i look forward to hearing from you. <br />
I am ready to do this just not alone. <br />
I also love your page it speaks volumes to me i feel as if you are speaking to me indirectly through your messages. <br />
Thank you for your time, <br /> Sincerely, <br /> Alexandria Poupart<br /> From Lac du Flambeau, Wisconsin<br />

Billions of dollars are OWED to ALL TRIBES for the unbridled genocide, ethnocide, and infanticide committed in the name of God and Country. The US needs to be TRIED and SENTENCED in the International Court of Crimes, for crimes committed against the Indigenous people of the Northern Hemisphere.<br />

Every religion in the world is underdeveloped. And the only true spiritual practice and way of life is the Pipe Way of Life, Wico aa Canupa.<br />
<br />
Roman Catholicism, Buddhism, Hinduism, Islam, Shiite, Mormonism, Satanism, Atheism, Zealotism, there all underdeveloped. They've never reached their full potential, their full meaning, they've never attained their full power or status with God.<br />
<br />
And as a result all those who have followed those belief systems have not reached their full potential in the eyes of God. Therefore they lack spiritual achievement, holy advancement, Godliness.<br />
<br />
And so the world is full of spiritually based relics of the past that have no meaning.<br />
<br />
I am like, wow.<br />
<br />
In my search for the truth I have seen many lies. Most of which came from religions of all sorts. Contradictions, suppositions, and presuppositions, doctrines, Papal Bulls, Holy Edicts, visionary revelations, enigmatic manifestations of the flesh and the spirit.<br />
<br />
It's all fluff, illusion, man-made, creationism, manipulative. The truth is hard to find when it is not there.<br />
<br />
So now I believe I can stop looking.<br />
<br />
My uncle Chris, whom I loved dearly and whom I miss every day, said, Christianity will only bring you so far. And for a long time I thought I understood what he meant, but the truth is I only understood a fraction and now I see it all.<br />
<br />
Once during a Sundance I felt God. It was the most powerful experience I have ever had spiritually. So I know he exists. But that's all I really know except for that he was in the sundance arbor. That's the center, the hocoka.<br />
<br />
When I seen the film The Last Temptation of Christ, there's a scene when he goes to the desert and draws a circle in the ground, his hocoka, and he sits inside and waits for his visions, he eventually receives several.<br />
<br />
Well I told my son, Indian people have been doing this for thousands of years before Christ. So we always knew how to find the truth and we understood where the truth came from, God.<br />

That's how I know the Pipe Way of Life, Wico aa Canupa is the true way and there is no other. <br />

It further calls on the government to indicate publicly how it is going to mitigate this spill, especially given that freeze-up of the creeks and river has already begun. We also call on the company involved, Sherritt International, to inform the public of the chemicals it uses in its mining process and the contaminants contained in its coal mine wastewater ponds. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">On November 1, 2013 the Government of Alberta announced what is likely the largest spill in Canadian history of wastewater from a coal mine containment pond, located on the Obed Mountain Coal Mine site, near Hinton, Alberta. The announcement and its two updates (November 2 and 4) contain almost no information about the amount of wastewater spilled, its contents, or their likely effects on the environment and human health. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Following a pattern of downplaying the potential damage from spills and blowouts associated with the energy industry and providing the least amount of information possible to Albertans, these announcements stress that the spill contained sediments such as “clay, mud, shale and coal particles,” and that “water sample tests do not indicate any health risks.” They do not alert the public to potential damage to sediments, invertebrates and fish from wastewater contaminants such as flocculants, selenium, heavy metals and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, some of which are cancer-causing. Furthermore, results of the water sample tests have not been released to the public, despite promises to do so. “With so little information to go on,” said Harvey Scott, Keepers of the Athabasca Director, “it is hard to know what the effects of the spill will be on such things as winter dissolved oxygen levels , the spring spawn or the long term aquatic health of the riverine ecosystem.”</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Information is coming out slowly in media reports, thanks to the efforts of investigative reporters and others. Media reports of interviews with ministry officials indicate that Fisheries and Oceans Canada is investigating to determine whether there are any violations of federal fisheries laws; Alberta Environment now acknowledges that damage has been done to fisheries habitat; the company involved, Sherritt International, declines to list publicly the chemicals it uses in its mining process; an official with the company does report that it uses flocculants, thickening agents that can cause harm to fish if released to waterways. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Keepers of the Athabasca is concerned about the lack of transparency and accountability on the part of the Alberta Government and the company, and is pursuing the release of crucial information about the spill not only because of the failure of one containment pond, but also because there are two similar ponds on the Obed Mountain site and many more on the sites of current and proposed coal mines in the area. This raises broader questions about containment pond design and inspection schedules that also need to be answered. The Alberta public deserves no less. </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">For More Information Contact: </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Jesse Cardinal, Coordinator, Keepers of the Athabasca </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">780-404-5315 keeperathabasca@gmail.com </span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Harvey Scott, Director, Keepers of the Athabasca</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">780-675-4158 haecosse@hotmail.com</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">Jule Asterisk, Director, Keepers of the Athabasca</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 12.727272033691406px; line-height: 15.454545021057129px;">780-805-1709 asterisk@telusplanet.net</span>Dakota Perspectivehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01358076168780197246noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1606384751118942718.post-7414747820713476092013-11-14T10:16:00.001-08:002013-11-14T10:16:25.979-08:00Indigenous Peoples Issues and Resources (repost by RL)<h5 class="uiStreamMessage uiStreamHeadline" data-ft="{"tn":":"}" id="u_jsonp_17_7" style="background-color: white; font-family: 'lucida grande', tahoma, verdana, arial, sans-serif; font-size: 13px; font-weight: normal; line-height: 1.38; margin: 0px; outline: none; padding: 0px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">

When Atahualpa refused, Pizarro declared the Inca an enemy of the Church and Spain. The Requerimiento (Spanish) "requirement" as in "demand") of 1513 was a written declaration of sovereignty and war, read by Spanish military forces to assert their sovereignty (a dominating control ) over the Americas. Written by Council of Castile jurist Juan López de Palacios Rubios in 1513, it was used to justify the assertion that God, through historical Saint Peter and appointed Papal successors, held authority as ruler over the entire Earth; and that the Inter Caetera Papal Bull, of 4 May 1493 by Pope Alexander VI, conferred title over all the Americas to the Spanish monarchs. Two days later, the Spanish launched an attack on Atahualpa and Cajamarca, known as the Battle of Cajamarca. The "battle" involved the massacre of thousands of Atahualpa's unarmed entourage of nobles and attendants, in the great plaza of Cajamarca.
