Tribal Dakota Pipeline Resistance the Start of Something Bigger

I won't comment on the article's view as I know people who are involved and haven't really got to talk to them about it yet, so I cannot really get into it.

I notice the article doesn't mention Three Affiliated Tribes which is the Native American tribe that have gained the most from the oil. If martindelemotte is correct and its a Venezuelan report then that is probably significant. You might check out this link for a lot of stories from some Native Americans perspective http://indiancountrytodaymedianetwork.com

It is Lakota not Dakota. Standing Rock is Lakota. The Dakota tribe in North Dakota is Spirit Lake. There is a difference although both are Sioux. Dakota were a force migration from MN and still aren't "legally" allowed to enter Minnesota.

I do want to add that the Google News team needs to get its sh#+ together. I submitted a story https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12384851 that shows how they have done something truly bad in regards to snopes.com, which I see is still broken.

Go to news.google.com and search for [North Dakota Indigenous Tribes] then look at the snopes.com articles. One has the title "North Dakota Gives the Green Light to Shoot Indigenous Tribes on Sight". This is not helping and just plain stupid.

The article gave barely any information on the pipeline itself. It is hard for anyone who isn't keeping up with American news to understand what is happening at all.

TeleSUR is the (mostly) Venezuelan equivalent of RT. Take it with a grain of salt.
