"In the Spirit of Coler and Williams

As can be seen I originally blogged this in
Feburary of ’13 and not much has changed. Peltier remains a pathological liar
and hive members continue to ignore the facts and insist he is a martyr.
There’s an incremental diluting of the
reasons to free him though – the emphasis is no longer that he is innocent, or
that “X” did it, both claims proven to be unsustainable, now it is about
Peltier is old and on the verge of falling and not being able to get up.
My response to that is others fell as the
result of a bullet and they haven’t been able to get up for decades – no
clemency, pardon, or “humanitarian” gesture is possible for them.
One could say they are in a sense political
prisoners confined to a grave, the result of the politics of AIM – more
specifically those of it’s leadership.
A leadership that consisted of Dennis Banks,
Russell Means, Clyde and Vernon Bellecourt, Carter Camp, and Leonard Crow Dog,
plus an assortment of second tier flunkies.
All qualifying as “tugs” and “mad dog
killers” as Peltier would put it.
Peltier is leaving himself an out, he’s
steadfastly declared he would do it all again, but also would admit his role if
“his” chiefs and elders told him so.
How convenient – admit the truth but portray
it as questionable and only under advisement.
I can’t help but wonder who exactly are
Peltier’s chiefs and elders?
Are they to be found in the AIM hierarchy? If
so I’m kind of doubting they would risk opening such a can of worms, it could
lead to a prisoner exchange – Peltier walks out and they walk in.
No, Peltier serves them best behind bars – as
long as he remains there he is a red herring they can toss out to deflect
attention away from themselves.
An added bonus is the possibility of a little
revenue at times he can generate for them employing vehicles like the “walks”
and “tribunals”.
Without Peltier they might have to contend with
the murders of Annie Mae, Ray Robinson and his co-victims of WK2….and that’s
the last thing they want.
Dino Butler was the first to go on record
about “X”, he went so far as to characterize it as an effort to keep Peltier
behind bars.
Yet inspite of this early admission the story
was cultivated for years by “celebrities” and hapless supporters.
Who knows, maybe this dovetails with my
contention that despite all the hoopla the leadership believes he actually does
serve them better behind bars.
There are multiple genres in the film
industry, from fantasy to action and even documentaries. A documentary, that
was the way Incident at Oglala was promoted by Robert Redford.
A fact based recounting of the truth and
events – problem is “X” was included for dramatic value and to raise doubts. I
think it reasonable to assume some flagrant error, such a complete hoodwinking,
would prompt a mea culpa from producers to narrator – yet that hasn’t happened,
not so much as a whisper or rumor of remorse, nor admission of having been
duped.
Maybe these documentarians and producers
believe they’re too important, too big to fail to even consider such a thing
…..if that’s the case no one should believe a damn thing they have to say about
anything.
PATHOLOGY OF A LIAR
Posted by

February 6, 1976
When Leonard Peltier was arrested in Alberta,
Canada, he said that the FBI agents “who had come to arrest HIM” at Pine Ridge
for jumping bail on a Wisconsin attempted murder indictment deserved to die.
(They hadn’t some to arrest him, and didn’t even know he was there).
He also said if he had known the RCMP were
coming to arrest him (they walked into the bedroom where he was still sleeping,
and woke him up), he would have shot them “out of their shoes.”
Because the admissions, including the
statement that he knew who executed the FBI agents, were made without an
attorney present, they couldn’t be introduced as evidence at his trial.
However, both statements were considered in his sentencing and subsequent
parole hearings.
The above a copy paste from the Leonard
Peltier Still Guilty- it speaks to a number of things. One being Peltier’s thug
attitude, another being when Creator was passing out brains and Peltier was
asked if he wanted one he thought the word was trains and said he would catch a
later one.
Peltier’s good fortune that his statements
couldn’t be introduced into evidence, but as is said they have a direct
influence on his parole status.
Peltier, like all all thugs and wannabe tough
guys wants to be seen as someone not to fool with, a dangerous person when it
comes down to it-so he’s compelled by that and his own ignorance to make such
statements-to boast in front of women about shooting people, or brag about
being a “hero”, “warrior” and “laying down fire” at agents Williams and Coler
as his own words state in the Just For Discussion blogs.
None of which adds any credibility to his
claim that he is a political prisoner, that’s just an affected persona-kind of
like the warrior, hero thing.
It’s also intended to divert attention from
the troublesome comments he’s made, the lies he’s been caught in, and the fact
that despite every effort to remediate his sentence Peltier and his team have
laid an egg.
Doesn’t stop the propaganda though, or
attempts to continue milking the cash cow that Peltier has become- but as
awareness grows, so does a predictable contempt resulting from an increasing
familiarity with the truth.
Peltier would have one and all believe he’s
going down swinging-truth is he’s just down period-he’s tried desperately to
cast himself as one of the big dogs, but the reality is the only place for him
is on the porch, or more appropriately as is the case his prison cell.
We are told now that Peltier’s current legal
team are Bravado Boys from Buffalo- I don’t know about all that, but bravado
has been a mainstay of the act Peltier has engaged in.
For his legal team to admit that the Mr. X
mystery shooter was concocted sounds more like a whimper to me than bravado-but
then there probably wasn’t much choice as the lie had been thoroughly
discredited for years.
This being the case something new, something
immediate had to be presented to fill the void that was created, divert
attention, and hopefully not allow people the time to actually think and say
-Hey, wait a minute, X is a lie? Then what else have they been lying about?
No that wouldn’t do at all-but one thing for
sure, LPDOC knows their audience and how to play them. And dropping the Mr.X
bomb was like the Friday night weekend White House news drop-the intent,the
hope is, that in being the weekend people will be distracted while engaging in
other things.
The example of this diversion? Frank
DeLuca/Blackhorse and now Theda Nelson Clark-the timing of these hoped for
distractions immediate in nature, and necessary.
That isn’t to say though neither should be
looked at, and both for a multitude of reasons should be-among those reasons
would be Theda’s role in the abduction murder of Annie and DeLuca’s homeboy
status with Peltier and eerily comparable history one might liken to Dave
Hill’s-you know that not going to be prosecuted for services rendered, the good
of the public, etc etc.
That could also explain the reason why those
AIM leader “patriots” seem to avoid prosecution, so maybe the same look, the
same interest given to DeLuca and Clark should be given to them as well. But
that’s apparently too much to hope for.
This Friday night drive by news drop worked
to a degree though as we haven’t seen it picked up by the mainstream media, or
journalists like Rickert. Now If I were a journalist, especially one of ours,
this admittal would have been front page news for me, and I would have been in
LPDOCs face about it- I would have emblazoned it across the front page in bold
type challenging people to think about it and consider the implications.
But I’m not a journalist, and make no claim
or pretense that I am, so I just do what others do, peck away at the keyboard
pointing out what I believe to be flagrantly obvious and in doing so know that
some will agree while others will not.
There’s a Shakespearian quote as follows:
“Whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer
The slings and arrows of outrageous fortune, Or to take arms against a sea of
troubles, And by opposing end them?”
I don’t consider myself noble in any sense of
the word-I consider the truth to be, and I believe there is a great ignobility
in the way AIM and the Peltierites have gone about attempting to bury it-such
efforts should be seen for the sea of troubles they’ve created and opposed.
Having once been a Peltier supporter I know
the mechanics of their denials, the lengths they will go to deny a truth and
create or support a lie.They’ll throw anything and everything against the wall
hoping something will stick while they apply liberal coats of Teflon to their
boy.
He’s not a “tug”, not ” a mad dog killer”-
he’s a “political prisoner” whose been “wronged”, because as they would have
you believe he wasn’t just a “dumb as dirt” low level grunt, he was a “leader”
of AIM, respected by one and all, and whose opinion was not only highly
regarded but sought after.
He personally presented some huge threat to
the U.S., to it’s very continuation and existence-a prophet and seer come to
free the nations-a regular Wovoka with a variation-his dance included sticking
a gun in a woman’s mouth to interrogate her, shooting mortally wounded men in
the face at pointblank range, and not hesitating to run and abandon women,
pregnant or not, than to face the music he had created.
A real role model huh, somebody you’d want
your children to grow up like? In furtherance of that be sure to send some
money to his “bravado” fund.
“Especially in this system, I can’t tell the
system I was shooting at their police officers that WERE TRYING TO ARREST ME.
They’ll hold that against me. I’VE GOT BE CAREFUL ABOUT THAT STUFF. ( Caps
mine).
Yet Peltier has said he wasn’t shooting at
them-that “nobody was shot, hit, hurt, killed”, in the direction he was
shooting-he has also gone on to say he was “laying down fire”.
“I think it was around that December when I
heard that Anna Mae was dead. I was in that jail over there in Canada right
around whenever they exposed who she really was and what she died from, but I
believe I didn’t hear about it until December. When people say that she tried
to contact me, that’s a lie. If she’d have tried to contact me then she would
have been with me, and there’s no doubt in my mind because the Indian people
knew where I was; certain people knew where I was at. “
The problem with this statement is that he
wasn’t in jail in Canada until February of the following year-1976. And by his
own admission that he was in and out of the country the question arises was he
around in December of ’75? And if so what was he doing and who was he in
contact with?
He doesn’t seem to know which side to come
down on- as though confused by Trudell’s statement that Banks told him prior to
Annie’s body being identified that it was her, and the Banks line of he neither
knows or ever knew anything about anything related to her murder. Lends
credibility to the dumb as dirt moniker.
More than obvious Peltier is an inveterate
liar, a pathological one incapable of even keeping the lies straight. It’s as
though this liars pathology were a contagion, as it apparently infected the
entire AIM leadership, a large number of their supporters, the Peltierites, and
LPDOC itself.
The truth is the cure for that, but a vaccine many
refuse to avail themselves of, depending instead on those “natural” remedies
offered at the AIM LPDOC clinic
