OF INDIAN AFFAIRS WORKING HARD TO BRING ABOUT “FINAL SOLUTION”

MNN. Dec. 6, 2006. Jim Prentice, the Minister of Indian Affairs in Canada, has been continuing the program of proselytizing certain band council chiefs who are already his followers. They are handsomely rewarded. For example, James Gabriel of Kanehsatake can do no wrong. He was a court appointed chief with no limits to his oppression of the people. He thought that the taxpayers had bottomless pockets. Santa wasn’t going to cross anything off his Christmas list. When anyone objected, or tried to take him to court, Indian Affairs put up all the money that top lawyers and public relations firms needed to help him. He had carte blanche to do anything to keep the people in their place. Indian Affairs handlers know how to keep their dog on a leash.

He is not alone. Joe Norton, long time chief of Kahnawake, could get away with any kind of dubious activities. He now lives in one of the biggest mansions in ritzy Rockcliffe in Ottawa. Mike Mitchell of Akwesasne had unlimited immunity from his years of serving the master very well. David General of Six Nations walks around in his shiny suit and smiles at his victims.

We are informed that there are band council chiefs right across the country who have become part of this army of corrupt followers of Jim “Jones” Prentice and his predecessors. You can spot them at the airports on their way to the next conference or meeting, where a blonde date awaits them. [They must be thinking, “This beats the bush any day!”]

They have total control over the people who can’t taste the poison that’s put in their “kool aid” by their “great white father”, Jim Jones Prentice. They can cut off welfare payments, take their children away and keep them living in shanties if they don’t behave. They control every cent that comes from the Tower of Power in Hull Quebec. It is sometimes called the “Peoples’ Temple”, “people” being Jim Jones Prentice’s legion of Indians dressed like colonists standing at the turret pointing their guns at us.

Eventually these certain band council chiefs are driven to a state of unreality. It’s a psychological condition characterized by delusional fantasies of wealth, power and omnipotence. It is also known as delusions of grandeur. Indian Affairs knows how to seduce them into catching this disease. It’s an aberration created by taking an egalitarian person and stuffing him/her into the hierarchy [a round peg into a square hole].

The colonists have been doing it since they landed here. They carefully select their pliable nominees. They are ignorant and willing to play the part of an Indian chief for the Canadian public. [“Stand here. I want yer picture, chief” Snap!]. Back home they are social outcasts. They are feared by their people, except those monkeys with tin cups they drop a few coins into. Don’t forget, they are also backed by the guns of the Indian police.

These chiefs become obsessed with grandeur and extravagance. It’s part of keeping the bootie in the war of keeping us poor on behalf of their cult leader. This can be seen as a manic or paranoid disorder. How dangerous are these people? Would they “follow orders” like keeping us in a state of ignorance, fear and willing to take the crumbs they throw at us? You bet!

Bill Wilson of Pine Ridge set up goons armed better than the marines, with the backing of the FBI. They murdered Lakota men, women and children. The government gives these people a false sense of importance and security. When they’re done with them, they throw them away. You can see them walking around in a daze like ghosts that nobody will talk to. Many have a great big bag of dirty laundry that the government keeps in its smelly closet. You better believe it isn’t just dirty socks and foul gym shorts.

Jim Jones Prentice’ cronies are programmed something like the “Manchurian Candidate”. I think they are dangerous. They are unconcerned about the welfare of our people. They have been seeing the gravy train for too long and all they want is to continue to monopolize the money that’s coming into the community. The oppressed have become the oppressors. We always thought that when they go outside of the circle, we could bring them back. Some maybe! Most are too far gone.

Has this happened before? Let’s look at what happened to the Peoples Temple. Jim Jones started out poor as a preacher of an evangelical religious group in Indianapolis. He began helping poor people by setting up soup kitchens, food banks, literacy programs and other social service initiatives. He set up a church to bring his followers together. As time went on, his charisma brought more and more people to him. He would get his followers to attack those who criticized him. He would give donations to those who supported him.

Jim Jones decided to move his flock to Ukiah California to set up a commune that he said would be the “perfect society”. Most who followed were poor people of color. There were some well-to-do groupies. He became more politically involved and drunk with power. Local and city politicians were paying attention to him. He never experienced such notoriety and unquestioning power over people before. This went to his head.

He acted like he was a king sitting on a throne. He set up systems of control like taking all the elderly people’s welfare and pension checks, demeaning the people in front of their community and forcing them to practice mass suicide by drinking a red liquid at his command. Although his wife stood by him throughout, he could have as a sexual partner any woman or man he wanted. There was just no limit to what he wanted and what he could get.

He became worried about the defectors who were pressing for investigations into the mistreatment, moral and financial situation in the commune. Jones decided that he would move about 1,000 of his people to South America so no one could keep an eye on him. He set up “Jonestown” in the jungles of Guyana, 400 miles from the city of Georgetown.

In June 1979 a congressman, along with his aides and media, flew to Jonestown to investigate the rumors of maltreatment and torture he had heard about. The controlled atmosphere there made it impossible for him to fairly assess the situation. He decided to return to the U.S. 20 dissenters decided to leave with him. While boarding the plane a tractor used for clearing the jungle approached them. Nine men dressed in camouflage disembarked and started to shoot them. 5 were killed, including the congressman, and many were wounded, some escaping into the jungle.

Back at the compound Jim Jones ordered everybody to drink the purple kool aid laced with cyanide, starting with the children. The authorities found 914 people laying on the ground with their faces down, dead and bloated from the hot sun. This disturbing picture shows you how sick hierarchical power can be.

Many band council chiefs found they can practically get away with murder. There are honest folk who get elected. They seem to be powerless. They typically turn their backs on politics in disgust. All that happens to those who follow Indian Affairs is that they get another shipment of kool aid.

How many more Jonestown do we need? This strategy is ongoing. They probably don’t have a picture of the “Jonestown massacre” tacked to the wall of the war room of Indian Affairs, but it doesn’t seem to bother them that hundreds of Indigenous communities are stuck with poisoned water. It makes us think that there is a plan. We can’t understand how they can take their coffee breaks in comfort when the majority Indigenous communities are living in a state of perpetual emergency.
