What's going on in #IndianCountry?!!
Joy Rides into the Stratosphere, and #MilitaryIntelligence: Helium Balloons over #Navajo and #Lakota Nations, Indian Country
"#WorldView also announced a partnership with the military defense contractor #SierraNevada for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance, for the U.S. military using its balloons. One of these balloon flights was for the U.K. defense department in the Grand Canyon."
By #BrendaNorrell, #CensoredNews, Sept. 5, 2024
"Joy rides into the stratosphere, and military surveillance, are two of the purposes for the helium balloons over the #NavajoNation, #LakotaNations in #SouthDakota, and most of Indian country, according to the owners of the helium balloons.
"#TheGuardian exposed the helium balloons #spying platforms and the #ACLU in South Dakota warned of this #surveillance. The balloons are capable of video recording vehicles traveling to #protests, and can reveal where the vehicles arrived from. It's spying without a warrant.
"The balloon owners, Aerostar and World View, have U.S. military contracts for recovering payloads, as was the case with World View's experimental payload recovery in the #GrandCanyon for England's defense department. These balloons can also carry out ground surveys.
"Aerostar is based near #SiouxFalls, South Dakota, and World View is headquartered in Tucson, Arizona."

Es sind ganz andere Töne, die der Verein zur Unterstützung indianischer Jugend-, Kultur- und Menschenrechtsprojekte & LPSG (Tokata-LPSG RheinMain e. V.) dieser Tage zu dem indianischen Aktivisten und Langzeitgefangenen Leonard #Peltier vernimmt. Und das, obwohl das FBI sich weiterhin in einem »emotionsgesteuerten Rachefeldzug« gegen den indigenen früheren Aktivisten befindet, so die ehemalige #FBI-Mitarbeiterin Coleen Rowley. Der amtierende FBI-Direktor Christopher Wray bezeichnet den Langzeitgefangenen nach wie vor als »unbarmherzigen Mörder«, ohne dass es bis heute belastbare Beweise für eine Schuld Peltiers an der Erschießung zweier FBI-Agenten 1975 gibt.
Die Stimmen anlässlich von Peltiers 80. Geburtstag kommen aus »dem anderen Amerika«. Sie zeichnen das Bild jenes Mannes, der für die einen ein brutaler, kaltherziger und reueloser Killer ist und für die anderen ein Nelson #Mandela. Im Folgenden zitieren wir aus Statements, Kommentaren, aber auch Gebeten für den politischen Gefangenen. Sie sind vor allem gekennzeichnet durch Achtung, Respekt, Dankbarkeit und dem Wunsch nach Freiheit.
Mitch Walking Elk, #Cheyenne-#Arapaho, Musiker, Autor und Aktivist des American Indian Movement (AIM): »Leonards fortgesetzte Inhaftierung zeigt wie unter einem Mikroskop die Behandlung der #Ureinwohner dieses Landes durch die US-Regierung … Wir segnen dich für dein Leben und unterstützen dich in deiner Freiheit. Danke, Leonard.«
Wade Fernandez, Menominee, Musiker: »Ich weiß, dass Leonard innerhalb der Gefängnismauern einigen jungen Menschen als Mentor dienen konnte, aber jedes Enkelkind sollte die Freiheit haben, an der Seite seines Großvaters auf diesem Land zu wandeln. Bringt Leonard nach Hause.«
Keith Rabin, Aktivist: »Wir können nie genug für all das tun, was er uns gegeben hat.«
Berta Benally, Musikerin, Aktivistin, Mutter der #Navajo-Musiker von #Blackfire & #Sihasin: »Lieber Leonard, es ist sehr traurig, dass du immer noch im Gefängnis sitzt, aber du bist mit deinen schönen Worten eine Inspiration für uns alle. Ich danke dir.«
Mato is’na’la, #Lakota-Aktivist: »Leonard war sehr bodenständig, optimistisch, positiv, fürsorglich, unterstützend und durchsetzungsfähig. Er ist ein traditioneller Krieger, der das Gewicht der Ungerechtigkeiten, des Chaos, der Opfer unseres Volkes ohne Zögern auf sich nahm, mit dem Wunsch zu helfen.«
Henry Red Cloud, #Oglala-Lakota-Chief, Umweltaktivist: »Leonard ist seit fast fünfzig Jahren unschuldig inhaftiert. Nun wird er 80 und sollte sofort freikommen, damit er seine restliche Lebenszeit noch mit Familie, Freunden und vor allem seinen Enkeln verbringen kann.«
Dawn Lawson, Leonard Peltier Official Ad Hoc Committee: »Hinter Gittern hat er mehr für die indigenen Gemeinschaften getan, als sich die meisten Menschen je hätten träumen lassen. Er ist besorgt über den anhaltenden Völkermord an seinem Volk … Er macht sich Sorgen, dass Mutter Erde zerstört wird und sie den Ureinwohnern mehr Land nehmen, weil sie die Ressourcen nutzen wollen.«

#NavajoNation is 'Back Peddling' by Allowing #Uranium Transport through #Dine' Communities and More Dumping on #Utes
By Brenda Norrell, Censored News, Feb. 8, 2025
TUBA CITY -- "#LeonaMorgan, Dine' co-founder of #HaulNo!, said the Navajo Nation is now "back peddling" by allowing radioactive uranium waste to be transported through Dine' communities. This radioactive transport from the #GrandCanyon means even more deadly waste for another Native community -- the #WhiteMesaUte community in #Utah.
"Now, with little or no information along the haul route, the Navajo government expects the Dine' Chapters on the route to each have an emergency preparedness plan. Leona asked if the Dine' communities are aware of this and whether the Navajo Chapters are certified to deal with radioactive emergencies.
"'Who are their First Responders?' Ultimately, Dine' will have to confront the Navajo President and the Navajo Department of Justice, she said.
'We were not included in that agreement,' Leona said of the agreement between the Navajo Nation and #Energy Fuels."'There was no free, prior and informed consent,' Leona said, quoting the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples [#UNDRIP]. 'The people in the communities were not consulted.'
"'How can they start transporting on February 12th, when there aren't even any checkpoints? We don't even have an #AirMonitoring system,' Leona said of the lack of preparation for radioactive
transport on the Navajo Nation.
Energy Fuels plans to pass through Navajo communities with six to ten trucks of radioactive waste,
beginning on Feb. 12, 2025.
"Leona urged communities to organize, and pointed out that Navajo Chapters can have their own checkpoints. With the new push for '#DrillBabyDrill,' by the U.S. President, the Navajo Nation faces an uncertain future, she said. The U.S. is investing money into the development of #CriticalEarthMinerals and investing in Energy Fuels mill at White Mesa Ute."'We need to push our government to do what we want -- not what the federal government wants.'
"'It's going to get worse because they think nuclear is clean energy,' Leona said of the push for alternative energy.
"The Navajo Nation's agreement with Energy Fuels means more dangerous radioactive dumping in the #WhiteMesaUte community. In the agreement, Energy Fuels states it will transport 10,000 tons of uranium-bearing cleanup materials from abandoned #UraniumMines within the Navajo Nation.
"Leona was recently voted by the Navajo Nation Council to serve on the Diné #UraniumRemediation Advisory Commission, in an advisory position to the Navajo President and Council."Speaking in #TubaCity on Saturday, Leona said Haul No! began in 2016 when it became known that the Pinyon Plain uranium mine would begin mining in the Grand Canyon. Now, there is the new battle as the Navajo Nation government has approved uranium transport through Navajo communities to the White Mesa Ute community.
"Energy Fuels #PinyonPlain Mine, and the mill in southern Utah, threaten Native communities throughout the region."

From #Wikipedia: Internment of Japanese Americans
"During World War II, the United States forcibly relocated and incarcerated about 120,000 people of Japanese descent in ten concentration camps operated by the War Relocation Authority (#WRA), mostly in the western interior of the country. About two-thirds were U.S. citizens.
"These actions were initiated by Executive Order 9066, issued by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942, following the outbreak of war with the Empire of Japan in December 1941. About 127,000 Japanese Americans then lived in the continental U.S., of which about 112,000 lived on the West Coast. About 80,000 were Nisei ('second generation'; American-born Japanese with #USCitizenship) and Sansei ('third generation', the children of Nisei). The rest were Issei ('first generation') immigrants born in Japan, who were ineligible for citizenship. In Hawaii, where more than 150,000 Japanese Americans comprised more than one-third of the territory's population, only 1,200 to 1,800 were incarcerated.
"#Internment was intended to mitigate a security risk which Japanese Americans were believed to pose. The scale of the incarceration in proportion to the size of the Japanese American population far surpassed similar measures undertaken against German and Italian Americans who numbered in the millions and of whom some thousands were interned, most of these non-citizens. Following the executive order, the entire West Coast was designated a military exclusion area, and all Japanese Americans living there were taken to assembly centers before being sent to concentration camps in California, Arizona, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Idaho, and Arkansas. Similar actions were taken against individuals of Japanese descent in Canada. Internees were prohibited from taking more than they could carry into the camps, and many were forced to sell some or all of their property, including their homes and businesses. At the camps, which were surrounded by barbed wire fences and patrolled by armed guards, internees often lived in overcrowded barracks with minimal furnishing."
[...]
Prior use of internment camps in the United States
"The United States Government had previously employed civilian internment policies in a variety of circumstances. During the 1830s, civilians of the indigenous #CherokeeNation were evicted from their homes and detained in 'emigration depots' in Alabama and Tennessee prior to the deportation to Oklahoma following the passage of the #IndianRemovalAct in 1830. Similar internment policies were carried out by U.S. territorial authorities against the #Dakota and #Navajo peoples during the American Indian Wars in the 1860s.
"In 1901, during the Philippine–American War, General J. Franklin Bell ordered the detainment of #Filipino civilians in the provinces of Batangas and Laguna into U.S. Army-run #ConcentrationCamps in order to prevent them from collaborating with #Filipino General Miguel Malvar's guerrillas; over 11,000 people died in the camps from malnutrition and disease."Read more:
