Update: Mohawks Kahentinetha & Katenies in Custody ...

Just in case the post is placed elsewhere, instead of beneath the article I'm posting this comment in regards to, it is the following. (I haven't posted here before, so am not sure if NarcoNews might place comments someplace else at the website. It's unlikely, but I'll suppose that it's possible.) "Update: Mohawks Kahentinetha and Katenies in Custody When Beaten by Border Agents", by Brenda Norrell, June 17, 2008 http://narcosphere.narconews.com/notebook/brenda-norrell/2008/06/update-... All of that only to say that this is serious proof that Canadian PM Harper's "apology" on June 11th was as many critics say and which is representative of yet more hypocrisy; unfortunately. Well, I guess I'll add a little more, after all; now that my mind's awoken a little. They are not letting up on Ms Horn and Katenies, or simply MNN, MohawkNationNews.com and its providers, at all; having recently read that the imperialist, colonialist, corporatist state that Canadian "elites" have made of it tried to shut down MNN some months back, while also claiming that Ms Horn had chosen to cease providing MNN, which she excellently refuted, saying it's absolutely not true. Of course those who did this definitely knew that they were [lying]. After all, they knew they were making the claim and that it was not based on any news from Ms Horn, who, I believe, is the lead provider of MNN. The claim could not be truthful unless it was Ms Horn announcing the abandonment, and she did not. The article her on that topic is the following. "Who 'Crashed' MNN Website? Was It Hurt Feeeelings Over 'Nicknames'", by Kahentinetha Horn, Feb 2 2008, www.mohawkNationNews.com More recently, the police state evicted a Squamish community from their own land. "RCMP evict hereditary chief from B.C. 'band' office Breaking News on attacks on our people for asserting our rights and jurisdiction: RCMP EVICT HEREDITARY CHIEF KIAPILANO AND SUPPORTERS FROM SQUAMISH BAND OFFICE, VANCOUVER Squamish Nation territory ("Vancouver, Canada")", www.mohawkNationNews.com, May 25 2008, originally May 24 Excerpt: "Chief Kiapilano is leading a movement to expel agencies from his land who are responsible for the genocide of his people. Last March, Kiapilano and Eagle Strong Voice (Kevin Annett) initiated these actions by posting eviction notices on the Roman Catholic, Anglican and United churches in downtown Vancouver, ordering them off Squamish land." The excerpt's important, as also is the whole article, however I only included the quote for referring to Rev. Kevin Annett, who provides two documentary websites; while I'll only include a link to one, where there's a link to the other website. I don't know how many different subjects he covers on the various and ongoing issues for Canadian First Nations or Aboriginal Peoples, however he extensively covers the horrors committed in the notorious 'Residential Schools system'. The website is, "Hidden From History: The Canadian Holocaust. The Untold Story of the Genocide of Aboriginal Peoples", www.hiddenFromHistory.org , and visitors will find plenty of audio, video, and articles for documentary information there. No wonder we're so dumbed down; we have deafening silence, as well as lies, instead of [real] and therefore truthful education. Wherein we receive real education, it's evidently and much too superficial. Lastly, I wish to thank NarcoNews for providing the article by Brenda Norrell, along with a link to her own website and her profile. I visited her website and see that I've found myself another excellent online resource for news on issues for Indigenous peoples in the geographical areas that she covers. And I see that NarcoNews has maintained its high quality content, which is also great to see. Mike Corbeil Hatley Township, Quebec, Canada
