MNN. 19 FEB 2011. The Kaianerekowa is the Great Law of Peace. It is not a religion. It is a philosophy of freedom meant for all. Over 100 million Indigenous people in the Western Hemisphere were killed in the biggest holocaust in all humanity. The Mohawks always peacefully resisted Canada and US colonialism and international bank directed dictatorship because we remember the genocide.

According to our birthright we can never relinquish our lands and resources. We never have.

Climate Vandals - Alt. Country for Alt. Energy

Submitted by Anonymous (not verified) on Thu, 17/12/2009 - 7:17pm

On monday morning activists disrupted business as usual at the offices of International Power - the well known climate vandals responsible for the filthy Hazelwood coal power station, by reclaiming the swish foyer of the Rialto building, playing country music and distributing flyers. The action coincides with the UN climate talks this week in Copenhagen, where the world is watching and waiting to see if our leaders can agree on any practical solutions to climate change.
