    Instead of waiting until the president-elect takes office next month, tomorrow (Friday Dec 9) Energy Transfer Partners is pressing ahead with a request to a federal judge to allow the company to immediately cross beneath a Missouri River reservoir, the final 1,100-foot link to be built in the pipeline. They are requesting the judge make an expedited decision by Monday. #NoDAPL

    Please accept my apology for the massive logistical problems that occurred at Standing Rock in the last few days. We did not have the communications, command structure, or organizational capacity to deal with it. I'd also like to apologize for not being able to visit our multiple encampments or speak with all of you directly while on the ground. Will put out a video later today to address all of these concerns. I've been been assured that there will be an open accounting of how the money is spent but that Michael A Wood jr's first priority is getting vets transport home and taking care of those we still have in the field. Our action was successful thanks to the sacrifice and hard work of those who were on the ground before us and endured the risk, pain and suffering when the eyes of the world were not on Standing Rock - the water protectors, the youth, and the elders who have instructed us from the day we arrived that faith, prayer and peace are the way forward. Through the collective actions of everyone involved we have pried open a window to begin dialogue with the other side to begin envisioning a way forward through a system that none of us on any side are solely responsible for building. The route ahead is perilous and filled with many dangers. We all need to open our hearts to the spiritual force many of us felt first hand at Standing Rock and understand that only though peace, love, honesty and forgiveness can we truly solve the greater problem of how to save our planet and bring about the world we all know exists just around the corner. Human nature being what it is, we must be open to real dialogue with our opponents in this fight because their families are at just as great a risk as ours in what could become an extinction-level event if we don't start healing our world now. Please don't allow hate and mistrust to cloud your vision as we move forward in what many of us increasingly recognize as a climate emergency. All of our futures, and especially those of our children, are at stake in this larger battle. Once again, I am sorry for what I am certain are dozens, if not hundreds, of errors in my attempt at leadership. I drank no alcohol and had minimal sleep and food while at Standing Rock. Much of my time and energy was spent in a diplomatic role between the multiple factions and interests without spending enough time with you. Thank you so much for the hard work and sacrifice you performed on this journey, I regret that I can't individually thank each and every one of you and tell you how much I love you for what you've done. Your presence is what tipped the scales and made this happen - know it. Peace, love, solidarity and understanding. Sincerely and Kind Regards, Wes

    let's hope they remain untouchable. i'd just as soon these greedy pompous bastards (oil barons) stayed away from these territories. they will encroach without permission it seems. and the current govt elect is likely to grant permissions anyways. however, i see many more veterans stepping up to stare the corporate goons in the eyes. there comes a time when one must take a stand on one side or the other.

    http://www.businesswire.com/news/home/20161204005090/en/Energy-Transfer-Partners-Sunoco-Logistics-Partners-Respond '.....fully expect completion of pipeline without any rerouting in and around Lake Ohae. Nothing this Administration has done today changes this in any way' time after time the rich and "powerful" ignore laws, rules, regulations. 2016 has reminded us of that repeatedly. through chicanery and bribes or pay small fines, sunoco and energy transfer partners will see this thru. their hope is the water protectors break camp thinking they have won something. the pipeline constructors were advised to stop in september and they went full steam ahead anyways. it is their error in judgement that caused "too late to reroute" it is their calculated gamble, but they always expect to win regardless the role of the veterans on the scene is an interesting dynamic. very much a wild card

    something brewing up in canada too----pipeline resistance http://aptn.ca/news/2016/12/02/echoes-of-oka-trudeau-minister-says-military-involvement-possible-against-oil-pipeline-resistance/
  13. Standing Rock

    agreed! this isn't just about a pipeline. there comes a moment when one must decide which side of history they choose to be on.

    the veterans are arriving on scene now to provide a human shield around the battered and abused Water Protectors who have been treated as sub human by the various law enforcement agencies involved @ Standing Rock http://occupydemocrats.com/2016/12/01/2000-veterans-arrive-standing-rock-form-human-shield-around-protesters-photosvideo/

    This seems almost surreal except it is too real. It is like looking at Freud's version of the "uncanny", where something looks familiar but very out of place. This is just wrong on so many levels. I can't help but to think that North Dakota is more like North Korea than it is being part of America.
  17. Standing Rock

    i tried using credible sources like the local bismark newspaper and then abc news. what it shows is that the us army intends on evicting the "protesters" on december 5 and that former us army/veterans are showing up december 4-7 to guard the water protectors.

    north dakota governor jack dalrymple is an investor of the piepline and stock holder of the company building the pipeline. he is the one who gave the orders to attack the water protectors. no conflict of interest at all ? http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com/2016/09/08/north-dakota-governor-activates-national-guard-tribal-leaders-respond-165730 my question is where is the POTUS and USAG while violent atrocities are committed against peaceful people? AWOL with gross negligence of duty, not to mention any sense of human decency

    Sacred Stone Camp 1 hr · "You may have seen graphic photos of this water protector's mutilated arm which was hit by an explosive projectile fired by law enforcement last night. Sophia was one of 300 people injured at Standing Rock yesterday as Morton County Sheriff’s department deployed water cannons at people in temperatures of 22F and projectiles in the form of rubber bullets, concussion grenades, tear canisters. These violent policing methods against unarmed civilians led to numerous blunt force traumas including head wounds, lacerations, serious orthopedic injuries, eye trauma and internal bleeding. Please send prayers and support to them through this horrific trauma as they recover from amputation at a Minnesota hospital. Please stand up against this injustice, our lives are at stake." #NoDAPL here is a photo that can be posted of the water protector sophia wilansky who bravely went to the front lines to help with the Standing Rock struggle

    from Red Warrior Camp "SOPHIA WILANSKI was on the Frontlines last night at BlackWater Bridge, she was shot by the Riot Police with a concussion grenade. she is in a hospital in Minneapolis and her arm was amputated today. Morton County Sheriffs Dept and the National Guard who are working to protect a pipeline, a PIPELINE is responsible for this grievous bodily harm and must be held accountable! there are no words for what has happened." i saw some images posted and i won't share, "The family has asked all to show respect, compassion, and not use their daughters image of pain as a means to invoke rage in the hearts of our people. Respect the families wishes, but remain informative and continue to fight."
  22. Standing Rock

    last night in the sub freezing temperature of north dakota. the corporate goons drenched peaceful water protectors with water canons. stinger grenades and rubber bullets used too. from my pov north dakota and north korea are the same place. using water as a weapon against peaceful people who are trying to save water foreshadows the level of vile immoral sinister behavior we can expect in the future with our corporatocracy
  23. Learning from Immortals

    it is true that i have no inclination to go back and dig thru old posts to prove my point. if you remember our last exchange of messages, it was the same thing; i watched you insult a new member here (she no longer posts here and i cant say that you ran her off the board) i dont follow your posts but for some reason when i do, either by unlikely coincidence or whatever, i watch you insult members here and i will always speak up about that. otherwise i leave you alone. it isnt that i am defending vitali's school, i have no experience with it. i dont like seeing schools or members attacked and insulted is what i am trying to get across to you. anyways i said my piece fwiw, take it or leave it
