Iroquois Women Stand up to the Corporate Colonial Criminals

This article was just written by my friend Thahoketoteh of the Kanion'ke:haka, the Mohawk Nation of Turtle Island (Canada Inc)- for Mohawk Nation News

You know what is the most ridiculous part of all of this?  .... I mean, beyond the fact that the Corporate "Governments" are  still trying to pull this bullshit.

Lacrosse is a Game that was INVENTED by our First Nations People!!!   They're holding the Lacrosse World Championships in Scotland.... and tell the First Nations teams that they can't play, because they don't have (and don't want, lol) a corporate employee identification number, ie: a Canada Corporate Passport.

L O V E  these women for standing up and NOT bowing to the pressure of the bullshit corporatocracy.   Well Done!!!


love d


PS: This past monday night Thahoketoteh joined Lisa and I on the One People's Roundtable Discussion.  I will publish the archive video as soon as it's available.

THOSE WONDERFUL IROQUOIS WOMEN!

Please post & distribute. Nia:wen.

MNN. JULY 15, 2015. Our proud young people stood up to the powers that be. The Haudenosaunee under-19 women’s lacrosse team withdrew Thursday from the upcoming FIL U19 Women’s World Championship in Edinburgh, Scotland. The corporatists say our Rotinoshonni-issued passports are not valid because they do not meet their corporate standards. We, the natural people of our land, need a colonial passport for international travel. This is illegal and immoral as we ongwe’hon:weh are not Canadian or American colonial settlers.

In 2010 Rotinoshonni sovereignty drew worldwide media attention when the U.K. would not allow the Iroquois Nationals men’s lacrosse team into its borders without Canadian or American passports. They withdraw from the tournament rather than use a corporate imposed identification. In 2014 in Denver they participated and earned the bronze medal because it took place on ono’ware:geh, Great Turtle Island.

The colonialists would not wish others to know that we had a sophisticated system of issuing passes to those who would enter our nation and territory. We gave them a special name in our language to use when traversing among us. Other systems existed for those who wished to remain.

The Rotinoshonni issued passports in 1923 when Cayuga statesman Deskaheh went to Geneva to apply for membership in the League of Nations. Canada, a colony, had no right to be a member. Britain created underhanded pressure on the nine nations [Estonia, Ireland, Persia, Panama and other sovereign states] that supported us. Britain illegally made all indigenous people worldwide into wards of the colonial entity occupying their land.

These corporate “nations” will not recognize our sovereignty because it would destroy them and make them liable for all past crimes. The corporations of US and Canada do not want to respect the rights of the legitimate non-incorporated natural people of our land. Our identification does not meet the corporate requirements of the CROWN/Vatican to issue banking numbers.

Canada is violating an international treaty by breaching the 1701 Great Peace of Montreal, making the colonial settlers illegal occupiers on our land. The tehiohateh – Two Row – is the most brilliant piece of diplomacy ever devised for nations to live in peace perpetually.

These women stood up for freedom, dignity and integrity as a model for the world.

Bob Marley, the international traveler, would so admire these women. He would sing, “Get up, stand up, stand up for your rights”.
