Russia Plans to Install Indian Genocide Statue In Front of US Embassy
Is Putin borrowing a tactic from the comfort women protesters in South Korea to stick it the US?:
Last week it was made known that the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation—a Russian analogue to the U.S. House Committee on Oversight, which has consultative powers—is planning to put forward a proposal for the installation of a memorial by the site of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow, dedicated to the “genocide of the American Indians,” according to the RIA News Agency.
The request for permission to install such a monument was sent to the Administration of Russian President Vladimir Putin, to the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation and to the Moscow city authorities.
“The initiative to install the monument [near the US Embassy] is very timely as an act that will remind [people today] from where the history of the USA started,” stated member of the Civic Chamber Valery Korovin, who supported the proposal. “This monument must become the silent reproach to the modern American elites which had significantly deviated from the idealistic principles that were laid into the foundation of the American state.”
According to Mr. Korovin, the Civic Chamber of the Russian Federation should also appeal to the U.S. Congress to consider the “rehabilitation” of American Indians “as the native people of the United States, to admit the fact of their genocide by the US Government, to carry out the act of national repentance and thus to close this dark chapter of the U.S. history.” [The Observer]

Ha!
The population of indians was somewhwre between 2 and 10 million when the USA was a nation. The number killed in wars with Americans numbered in the low tens of thousands.
The only case of “smallpox blankets” was a British plot at the siege of Fort Pitt… nothing to do with the USA… and the Spanish set the record for killing New World humans.
Soviet Russia wiped out 2 to 7 million Ukrainians in the Holodomor.
Put up all the statues you want, Russia. It means nothing.
US should put a statue of indigenous Siberians who were killed and brutalized in the conquest of Siberia in front of the Russian Embassy in Washington DC.

Arizona copper mine to be built on sacred land; Native American tribes protest in Washingon, DC

“More than 100 Native American demonstrators protested at the U.S. Capitol on Tuesday. They want to stop a copper mine from being built right here in Arizona.
The $6 billion dollar mine is set to be constructed near Superior, in an area known as the Oak Flat Campground.
Members of the Apache Tribe say this is sacred land. For the past few months, tribal protestors have set up camp in this area and are refusing the leave until the land deal is repealed.
In December, President Obama approved the exchange of 2,400 acres as part of a defense spending bill.”
All ground is sacred ground… at least until the money starts flowing… then the Old Ones give their blessing for shopping centers and strip mines… and the next area for planned development becomes sacred ground.
Red man speak with forked tongue.
How other embassies? How about putting out a statue of some machetes and splayed out body parts for the Rwandan one. You don’t have to go back two centuries for that. Of course, the Russians probably sold them weapons (I know the French did, and they share some clients).
This sounds like a petty and classless thing for a government to do.

It’s a protester thing not gov’t thing so I can’t say that S. Korea started it.

“Red Man Speak with Forked Tongue”
Indians are identified as red. Negroes are identified as black. Asians are identified as yellow. Caucasians are identified as white. Colors must be treated with equality and without prejudice… as all colors are created equal. Don’t bring your racist thought into this conversation by implying that some colors are better than others. Colorism is a sick and disgusting trait of bigoted chomohobes such as yourself.
As for speaking with a forked tongue, certainly centuries of “white man speak with forked tongue” has established this colloquialism as acceptable speech… unless, of course, like “nigga”, it is only acceptable for certain races to use.
Tbone. despite your claims of championing women and minorities, your racist attitude is showing through. Shame on you.
