America at war

Joseph White Eyes: “Hey y’all, Tania Aubid (above) is on her 7th day of a hunger strike. She has been committed to this fight since early April when the sacred stone camp first went up. I am asking that you keep her in your prayers, and keep her in your thoughts while you are fighting for clean water. She has been a great mentor and a woman to have in this fight.”
OVERVIEW
North Dakota, USA is at war. The country is now divided between the Petrochemical-Pharmaceutical-Military-Industrial Complex ‘PPMIC’ (Capitalist) movement, which controls the cash flow and is rapidly
advancing, and the Liberal coalition (tree-hugger) backed by indigenous people, Green Party and allies that President Trump has marginalized as did the former presidents Obama & Bush.
The first International Conference on Climate Change and Global Warming took place in Buenos Aires during the reign of President Bill Clinton and the former VP Al Gore. Gore began drawing attention to the issue of global warming, cobbling together a base of believers and followers. Clearly, the Clinton Global Initiative, is a money laundering facility and Pay-to-Play geopolitical tool used by pedophiles, warmongers and elite capitalists.
On 8 November, 2016, the capitalists captured the strategic US military bases when a rigged 1 US election produced Donald Trump as POTUS. Trump has shown no respect for the Bill of Rights. No major party seems truly to want to halt what threatens to become a regional war. The slim chance to salvage a political process requires that regional actors immediately cease military action and help the domestic parties agree on a broadly acceptable course of action. Only then can the government return to the political negotiating table to address other outstanding issues.
The political transition, in trouble for some time, began to unravel during the time of Watergate. Following this wake-up call the people of the United States failed to hold their elected officials accountable. In 2004 Obama was elected toppling the widely unpopular government associated to election fraud and the 9/11 act(s) of terrorism. Under President Obama election fraud was clearly visible at the voting booths of the American people but also in the House, Congress and Senate. Arguably, the Obama administration
became completely enmeshed in the road map of the PPMIC.
Laughing all the way to the inauguration, Obama was honoured with the Nobel Peace Prize and went on to become the US president that dropped more bombs than any before him. There is no peace deal because peace is not profitable.
The current geopolitical divide is the most explosive, but it is not the only conflict. Tensions are also unsettling the recent marriage of convenience between the Liberals and Capitalists is clearly evidenced by the POTUS picks for key offices and the ease with which they are confirmed. The previous ruling party has taken advantage of popular dissatisfaction and tacitly allied with the Liberals against their common enemies to stage a political comeback. Divisions within the opposing groups is rampant as well.
Indigenous people, separatists are internally split and suspicious of one-another, a capitalist group earning their profits from the petrochemical industry may not agree with the tourism industry in need of pristine forests and National Parks that are not ravaged by oil spills. Then there is the nascent military, new toys replacing older ones and older more mature personnel ripped from the ranks by former POTUS Obama.
The US government is risking collapse to claim territory as land, control of or eradication of people and through the use of unconstitutional methods.
This combustible brew has overwhelmed the UN-led negotiations, a legacy of the genocide of indigenous people, disregard for treaties, the initiative to advance the petrochemical industry with complete disregard for human rights. Its implementation mechanisms include deception, a complete disregard for the Bill of Rights and the revelation of the treachery as the masks are peeled away, Initially, the political process was promising with dialogue that reached constructive conclusions on the political future
evidenced by all US citizens having the right to vote. But after 50 years, stakeholders have little confidence UN-sponsored talks alone will overcome the impasse or produce a lasting settlement.
The indigenous people and separatists have lost faith and are increasingly committed to reversing capitalist gains at virtually any cost. Indigenous people and separatists from around the world consider the indigenous people of North America as proxies, a stance that pushes them closer to action. Throwing their weight behind anti-capitalist, anti-petrochemical and anti-war protests and tribal mobilisation in the indigenous area of the Dakotas has resulted in an outpouring or resources for the movement. The
government lead efforts to isolate the movement diplomatically, strangle them economically and, now, weaken them militarily. In turn, the movement has grown as evidence of global catastrophe from climate
change and pollution reaches critical mass. The government has conducted military exercises and likely will harden their position in response to outsider and veteran intervention. The indigenous people’s relative self-sufficiency will not last long. They are already soliciting financial and political support.
More than others, the Dakota movement had the financial clout and historical ties with several different indigenous tribes as stakeholders to incentivise compromise. But ,the government and petrochemical stakeholders ramped up pressure while pinching off the safety valve with rigged elections, paid lobbyists and lucrative deals. In March, when brokered talks failed, the Dakota Access Pipeline ‘DAPL’ recognized a set of impossible preconditions for the completion of the project: Army Core of Engineers environmental impact studies ‘EIS’ had not been organised. The Energy transfer Partnership ‘ETP’ which the indigenous people blame for pipeline advances, refuse to acknowledge that they failed to include tribal councils in
the negotiations, insisting that the pipeline had a trajectory that would not threaten the tribal water and historical areas.
Egged on by regional powerhouses ETP and Dakota law enforcement, indigenous people may not be able to avoid a prolonged war. If they are to, the North Dakota and US goverment should step back from the military path and harmonise diplomatic efforts with the UN, which still has a critical role in facilitating compromise. The UN Security Council ideally would condemn regional military involvement in North Dakota and at a minimum should refrain from endorsing and promoting it.
The immediate priority should be a UN Security Council brokered and monitored ceasefire, followed by UN-led peace talks with ICCC GW backing, without preconditions, focusing on the role of the presidency and leaving other power-sharing topics until basic agreement is reached. Agreement on the executive would enable further talk on other aspects of power sharing in the government and military, and on state structure, particularly the future of the tribal treaty lands, where separatist sentiment is strong. Both have
been core drivers of conflict since pipeline and oil spills have polluted water, land and oceans.
Without minimum consensus within and beyond its borders, North Dakota is headed for protracted violence on multiple fronts. This combination of proxy wars, sectarian violence, state collapse and militia rule has become sadly familiar. Nobody is likely to win such a fight, which will only benefit those who prosper in the chaos of war. But great human suffering would be certain. An alternative exists, but only if indigenous people and their neighbours choose it.
