From the article:
"It is easy to understand how there can be so many Bernie Madoffs, Allen Stanfords and Charles Ponzis in America today, men who have no conscience and care nothing of the lives they ruin, when you realize that America was founded on the scam. It was twenty one year old George Washington who was commissioned by Governor Dinwiddie to carry a message to the French warning them to get out of the Ohio Valley and claiming that land for England. The scam was that he employed the Indians to escort him. When they asked what was in the letter, knowing that they considered it their land, he answered them in very general terms and noted in his journal that it, “allayed their curiosity a little.” Twenty six years later, as Commander of the Continental Army he would order General Sullivan, “The immediate objects are the total destruction and devastation of their settlements and the capture of as many prisoners of every age and sex as possible … to lay waste all the settlements around, with instructions to do it in the most effectual manner; that the country may not be merely overrun but destroyed … It should be previously impressed upon the minds of the men whenever they have an opportunity, to rush on with the warhoop and fixed bayonet. Nothing will disconcert and terrify the Indians more than this … But you will not by any means, listen to any overture of peace before the total ruin of their settlements is effected … Our future security will be in their inability to injure us; [the distance to which they are driven] and in the terror with which the severity of the chastisement they receive will inspire them …When we have effectually chastised them we may then listen to peace and endeavor to draw further advantages from their fears … Hostages are the only kind of security to be depended on.”
When President Obama told the Tribal Nations Conference this month that, “Longstanding legal disputes like the Cobell Case have been resolved," he omitted the fact that the Cobell settlement was illegal according to the Federal Class Action Settlement Act of 2005. The best kept secret of 2012 is that the deliberate and systematic destruction of our people continues at the federal level. The “bait and switch” scam happened in these two very similar situations when both Carrie Dann and Elouise Cobell started out dealing with the United States judicial branch of the government and like lightning out of the blue, found themselves dealing with the legislative branch of the government. Rather than justice being allowed to run its course, we have lawmakers passing laws that sweep these two landmark cases under the rug at $500.00 per person. But what can you expect of a corrupt system that once appointed a man like the late William Rehnquist to the position of Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, a man who, “had nothing but contempt for Indian cases...' As the disappearing hedge reveals, this nation was not founded “one nation under God," it was founded, one nation under the “Apotheosis of George Washington”."
