<!--QuoteBegin-->QUOTE<!--QuoteEBegin-->Ancient Struggle Continues, Scholars Remain Clueless
By Brannon Parker   

The past 515 years have seen a continual struggle between indigenous Traditionalists and indigenous ‘Progressives’. Unlike India, Native Americans did not have a massive population base to sustain their culture. Still it took nearly 400 years to destroy the Native civilization. Tribes were torn apart, families separated and lives lost in the struggle between those Natives committed to their Traditional culture and those Natives that rejected the old ways as useless. Traditionalists were targeted simply for practicing their ancient traditions, speaking their language and worshipping in their native way.In the USA, not until 1978 were American Indians allowed to legally practice their religion.

Not until 1978 were American Indians guaranteed custodial rights to their own children. These facts are widely known and verifiable. Curiously, despite all this information being common knowledge, despite the fact that billions of dollars have been spent on research, books, documentaries and films regarding the Native struggle, many leading PhDs, Scholars and Researchers such as Witzel, Farmer, Courtright etc. continue to pursue a campaign of cultural genocide. They cannot recognize the fact that history is being repeated and that they are prime movers in this ongoing brutalization of the Traditionalist’s’ sense of self-worth. They forget that behind every genocide one can find a scholarly rationale. These allegedly logical minds can not recognize the fact that while the ancient traditions and cultures of India have a proven track record in sustaining and maintaining the World’s largest and ongoing cultural paradigm along with a massive population base, the modern paradigm is constantly changing and failing.

The modern paradigm is unsustainable and can not fit into the natural law of the universe. This is because it is basically artificial, disconnected and unsustainable. On one hand we have an obviously successful, credible and sustainable reality based on the Traditional outlook. On the other hand we have the views of those representing a paradigm that is unsustainable and thin on credibility. They represent a paradigm that has absolutely failed to maintain or even develop a balanced civilization.

A society that can not support its own birth rate is a failure at a very fundamental and foundational level. So these idiots, blinded by their own ’scholarly knowledge’ want to foist this failed civilization on the world. They attempt to package their failed civilization’s academic outlook as scientific and authoritative and bury the modern day Traditionalist outlook. Traditionalists are not allowed to own their past. Attempts at outreach are painted in the darkest colors of racism, hate and violence. Any efforts to promote traditional values and historical perspectives are brutally savaged. 

Paradoxically, in many so-called Democracies most motivated Traditionalists are denied access to mainstream society. The level of commitment to one’s Traditional Culture is used as a gauge to qualify or disqualify one from participation in day to day life. A committed Traditionalist is therefore labeled a fundamentalist and a fanatic and thus perceived as unsuitable and unstable. Meanwhile the opposite lack of Traditional commitment and opposition to Tradition is not equally perceived as fanatical nor unstable.

The Native American Traditionalists have united, battled, bargained, sued, protested and exposed the lunacy of the Native Progressives’ betrayal of the culture. In the same way the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has fulfilled this role as guardians of India’s indigenous Tradition and Culture. The RSS is constantly being attacked by so-called progressive secular Indians. To counter it the RSS is doing the same for Hindus, in the same way that Native Americans in the past stood their ground and organized themselves in order to counteract this corrosive impact. 

As an example, if we superimpose the RSS into the American Experience, it becomes obvious that all the great Native American leaders would have naturally supported such an organization. The same dedication and commitment that inspired Crazy Horse, the Cherokee leader Sequoyah, Pontiac, Geronimo, Sitting Bull, Tecumseh, Roman Nose, Little Turtle, Metacomet, Chief Joseph, Black Hawk, among many other great American Indian leaders, is the same commitment to indigenous tradition that embodies the RSS. In other words, if they were here today these noble souls, who gave their lives to protect their traditions, would naturally, support the Hindu Traditionalist cause. Let the Hindus, the current champions of the ancient world’s traditions and culture, not die out before the world realizes they are worthy of honor.

Namaste and Mitakuye Oyasin 

Accessing the history of the US government’s war against the American Indians allows us to get a clear perspective of the propaganda war being waged against the RSS and Hindu Nationalists groups. The exact same methods are being used for the exact same goals of obliterating Humanity’s last remaining Indigenous power structure. Amongst the remaining Indigenous groups only the Hindus are in a position to control a major seat of power. All good people of conscience should unite behind them. India’s Hindu are the only people capable of standing up to the tyrants of Corporatism, Communism, Fascism and the Religious Supremacists represented by the Abrahamic radicals of Christianity and Islam.

AIM, American Indian Movement is basically the RSS for the American Indians.  "The movement was founded to turn the attention of Indian people toward a renewal of spirituality which would impart the strength of resolve needed to reverse the ruinous policies of the United States, Canada, and other colonialist governments of Central and South America. At the heart of AIM is deep spirituality and a belief in the connectedness of all Indian people. The philosophy of self-determination upon which the movement is built is deeply rooted in traditional spirituality, culture, language and history...

Indian people live on Mother Earth with the clear understanding that no one will assure the coming generations except ourselves. No one from the outside will do this for us. And no person among us can do it all for us, either. Self-determination must be the goal of all work. Solidarity must be the first and only defense of the members."  "we are criticized meticulously for our right to be who we areSimilar to the efforts in India and elsewhere to demonize the RSS as a racist violent organization, the US Govt and media attempted to destroy AIM.

See links below.http://www.aimovement.org/moipr/USvAIMbackground.htmlhttp://www.indiancountry.com/content.cfm?id=1096413635

The Propaganda War In pursuing such a policy the U.S. power elite has replicated the tactics and conditions more typically imposed on its colonies abroad. First, there is the matter of "grey and black propaganda" through which U.S. covert agencies, working hand in glove with the mainstream media, distort or fabricate information concerning the groups they have targeted. The function of such a campaign is always to deny with plausibility public sympathy or support to the groups in question, to isolate them and render them vulnerable to physical repression or liquidation.  As concerns AIM, grey propaganda efforts have often centered upon contentions (utterly unsubstantiated) that the "Indian agenda" is to dispossess non-Indians of the home-owner, small farmer or rancher type living within the various treaty areas. [This flies directly in the face of the formal positions advanced by the AIM and associated groups working on treaty land issues.

AIM has consistently held that it seeks lands held by the U.S. and various state governments (such as National and State Parks, National Forests and Grasslands, Bureau of Land Management areas, etc.) as well as major corporate holdings within the treaty areas. Small landholders would be allowed to remain and retain their property under "landed immigrant provisions" or, in some cases, naturalization.] In terms of black propaganda, there have been a number of highly publicized allegations of violence which, once disproven, were allowed to die without further fanfare. This has been coupled to "leaks" from official government sources that AIM is a "terrorist" organization. [This is based on testimony of a single informer at a hearing at which the AIM leadership was denied the right to cross-examine or to testify.]

The propaganda efforts have, in large part, yielded the desired effect, souring not only the average American citizen's perception of AIM, but-remarkably-that of the broader U.S. internal opposition as well. The latter have been so taken in upon occasion as to parrot the government/corporate line that Indian land claims are "unrealistic," "not feasible," and ultimately a "gross unfairness to everyone else."  Some books on the subject:Blood of the Land:

The Government and Corporate War Against the American Indian Movement, by Rex Weyler.New York: Everest House, 1982. Loud Hawk: The United States Versus the American Indian Movement, by Kenneth S. Stern.Norman, Okla.: University of Oklahoma Press, 1994. http://aimovement.org/mckiernan.htmlhttp:/...m/siege.htmlThe Role of AIM Leaders in Indian Nationalism

http://links.jstor.org/sici?sici=0095-182X...B2-C&size=LARGE 

The revolutionary fervor of AIM's leaders drew the attention of the FBI and the CIA, who then set out to crush the movement. Their ruthless suppression of AIM during the early 1970s sowed the seeds of the confrontation that followed in February, 1973..

http://www.mnhs.org/library/tips/history...93aim.html “Pledged to fight White Man's injustice to Indians, his oppression, persecution, discrimination and malfeasance in the handling of Indian Affairs. No area in North America is too remote when trouble impends for Indians. AIM shall be there to help the Native People regain human rights and achieve restitutions and restorations.

Marxism channels the rebellious impulses among native colonized into a format congruent with the dominant western/abrahamic genocidal culturicidal and colonizing paradigm. Nothing else explains how people otherwise sympathetic to native american struggles can be so overtly hostile to Hindus.
