(Update) 3 Steps to Help Leonard Peltier (Peltier Attacked)

( – promoted by navajo)

Three things that you can do right now to help Leonard Peltier are these. One, read Brenda Norrell’s article “Leonard Peltier attacked: Appeal to Attorney General.Two, get furious. And three…

Copy and paste part of her article.

Update:

During the call, Peltier said he will not be allowed “out of the hole” and in the general population.

Peltier said Canaan is a tough place, where gangs are being brought in. “He is one of the oldest ones there,” Cowan said. “He will not be allowed back in the general population or he will be jumped.”

Cowan said the FBI did tell Peltier that he was the victim in the attack, which she said was filmed on camera.

Peltier said he was set up in the attack. “It was a cold blooded setup,” Cowan said. She said he did not know his attackers. “He has never seen his attackers before.”

Peltier said he will be allowed only one phone call every 30 days.

Cowan said she is hopeful that President Obama will work “nation to nation” with the Turtle Mountain Chippewas to bring Peltier home to North Dakota.

“We have to push for his transfer, he is not safe there.”

All My Relations, Companeros, Friends in Solidarity,

In view of what occured Tuesday to our friend, Sun Dance Brother, a GrandFather and Elder, Leonard Peltier, AIM-WEST calls on friends and allies to come out this Friday, Jan. 23, in San Francisco and demonstrate their solidarity and deep concern for Leonard’s life, safety and security.

The rally in San Francisco, is at the Federal Building starting from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m., at the corner of Mission Street and Seventh Street, across from the 9th District Federal Courthouse (near Civic Center Bart Station).

Our allies are encouraged to hold rallies and demonstrations in cities across the country, and throughout the world, and register their concern as well, those who know the case of Leonard Peltier’s imprisonment these last thirty-three years. This is a moment in time where we can take the opportunity to share with the outside world another example, and further expose the treatment and injustices committed against Indigenous peoples’ held hostage by an oppressive government.

Join with us and show your disgust against the justice system; the Federal Bureau of Prisons, and the Federal Bureau of Investigation, in their obvious attempt to sabotage Leonard’s parole plans.They are responsible with callously and maliciously orchestrating an order to transfer Leonard Peltier to a lesser security prison with complete disregard for his life, placed into a dangerous situation whereby creates an environment which would cause, or provoke an attempt to harm his life; or to revoke any possibility for his release from prison any time soon, as per Leonard’s unwillingness to submit to an “incident report” of the attack.

Leonard needs to be transferred to another prison for his safety and well-being, now!

Meanwhile, we need to direct our demands on Leonard’s behalf to the attention to the Office of President Obama, and to the Director of Office of Bureau of Federal Prisons, and express to them our demand for Leonard’s health care, nutritional and medical needs as well.

We will file an official complaint with the Office of Attorney General to investigate the FBI for their role and involvement in the circumstances that lead to Leonard’s transfer to a lower level security prison.

Further, we call upon the offices of Congresswoman Pelosi, Congressman Don Conyers, and Congresswoman Barbara Waters, and U.S. Senators to investigate the possible implications of the Federal government’s offfices staging an assault on Leonard’s life, and of their obligation to protect our Elder.

Finally, we call on the attention of appropriate offices of the United Nations be alerted by registering our complaint to the Office of UN High Commissioner on Human Rights, the UN Special Rapporteur on Indigenous Peoples, Prof. James Anaya, and the UN Permanent Forum on Indigenous Issues. Specifically, we call for an investigation on U.S. prisoners held unjustly longer than 30 years without parole, with reference to a US statute such as in Leonard’s case.

I think the link and the introduction with what else is quoted here would work. Help.

Re: Leonard Peltier #89637-132

Dear Attorney General Holder:

I am writing today to provide you with a number of serious concerns stemming from the case of Mr. Leonard Peltier and explain how this case impacts all US citizens.

– snip –

• Once Mr. Peltier arrived at the Canaan prison facility, he was jumped by younger inmates, severely beaten, put in solitary confinement and placed upon meal restrictions despite his having diabetes and other medical conditions. The family has requested copies of the video tapes of that incident to no avail. It is as if the whole scenario was contrived to detract from the fact that Mr. Peltier has been a model prisoner having more than enough points to qualify for parole.

• Retired, former and actively employed FBI agents have taken action against the release and parole of Leonard Peltier time and again. While it is their right to speak their opinion, it is not right to do so on federal time and at the taxpayer’s expense. Their letters, writings, articles, books, protests, outcries and interviews concerning Mr. Peltier, are a conflict of interest and tip the scales against him unfairly. In addition, it is certainly questionable as to the timing of a letter written by a former FBI Agent to Representative John Conyers and the beating Mr. Peltier received at Canaan.

O.K., so maybe it’s four things.

Copy and paste into your bcc email list ..

it will go to over 300 news paper accounts at one time

let them know about what is going on with Leonard
