after he was arrested and charged with Obstruction of Justice to which he will face his day in court on March 8th 2010 in Calgary Alberta.
He is an activist, struggling for justice for the indigenous peoples of the Americas. His Mohawk name, Dacajeweiah, translated into English, is “Splitting the Sky”. He was born in Buffalo, New York, colonized as “John Boncore”, and also became known as “John Hill”. From the age of seven, Splitting the Sky survived many years in New York foster homes and youth detention centers which sought to brutalise him with numerous depredations.
The Attica Rebellion: 1971 - Splitting the Sky was 19 years old when he was arrested for stealing a sandwich and sent to Attica Correctional Facility, 16 days before the infamous “rebellion”. The riot was based in part upon prisoners’ demands for better living conditions. At the time, inmates were given one shower per week and one roll of toilet paper per month. On September 9, 1971, responding to the death of prisoner George Jackson, a black radical prisoner who had been shot to death by corrections officers in California’s San Quentin Prison on August 21 while armed and attempting to escape, about 1,000 of the prison’s approximately 2,200 prisoners rioted and seized control of the prison, taking thirty-three correction officers hostage. The State began negotiating with the prisoners.
During the following four days of negotiations, authorities agreed to 28 of the prisoners’ demands, but would not agree to demands for complete amnesty from criminal prosecution for the prison takeover, or for the removal of Attica’s superintendent. Under order of then Governor Nelson Rockefeller, state police took back control of the prison. When the uprising was over at least 39 people were dead, including ten correction officers and civilian employees. Splitting the Sky was the only prisoner indicted for murdering a Police Officer.
Gustafsen Lake Standoff: 1995 - In June 1995, Indigenous people from the Secwepemc (Shuswap) and other nations began an occupation of sacred Sun Dance lands at TsPeten (pronounced “che-peten”), known as Gustafsen Lake in English, near 100 Mile House, British Columbia. The occupation at TsPeten followed a long history of attempts to gain recognition of Secwepemc sovereignty by the Canadian Government, and indigenous rights to unceded lands in British Columbia.
The standoff began when a previous arrangement from 1989 to hold sun dances on Crown Land under the jurisdiction of BC rancher Lyall James broke down. Some Natives chose to remain at Gustafsen Lake and continue to hold annual sun dances in defiance of threats of eviction by Lyall James, and to assert indigenous rights to the land. As one of the largest police operations in Canadian history, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police launched the deployment of four hundred tactical assault team members, five helicopters, two surveillance planes and nine Armoured Personnel Carriers. By the end of the 31-day standoff, police had fired over 77,000 rounds of ammunition, one woman had been shot, and a dog had been killed. The British Columbia Attorney General Ujjal Dosanjh, branded the occupation as strictly a criminal matter, refusing to consider political negotiations. Splitting the Sky was fortunate to live to talk about the experience.
Citizens Arrest: George W. Bush - On March 17, 2009 Splitting the Sky On March 17, 2009 Splitting the Sky performed his civic duty, acting with respect of the Law and integrity from the heart - persuing to arrest a credibly suspected war criminal and former US President, George W.

Re: What a joke - taking Splitting The Sky Down for taking down a war criminal, a man that had a lot to do with the global economic meltdown, eroding civil rights across the globe, etc. Ha ha, funny. What a disturbing picture.

And you thought you lived in a democracy. This country has long been OWNED by the “City of London” (House of Rothschild)hense “the Crown”.
The Natives of this land have known for a LONG time what we are just finding out, Freedom and Demcracy are an illusion.
Canada is run by the Central Bank (communist) and Corporations, whose land resourses are to be raped (for profit by MutiNationals, not Cdns) and it citizens taxed into surdom. Cdn citizens pay the MOST and some of the HIGHEST taxes in the western world.
Get in the way, and…well just look at the picture above. Thats if the Shultzstaffel, woops, RCMP don’t kill you first.
Note the ENJOYMENT of the sub humans during the arrest.
Strengh to Splitting the Sky, and all those coming to his defence.
I read about the efforts by a lawyers’ group in Canada who tried to stop Bush from being admitted into Canada because of his war crimes. It was disappointing that this effort wasn’t successful. When one sees the tremendous amount of suffering that Bush has caused, and the assortment of human rights violations that he’s responsible for, it’s hard to see how anybody could deny that Bush is a war criminal. I wish Splitting the Sky all the best in his court case.
I live in Calgary and never heard anything in the regular media about the heroic act of Splitting The Sky. The powers that be obviously kept it out of the news. I hope that the trial of Splitting The Sky will be covered by the media but I doubt it! My admiration,respect and good wishes go out to Splitting The Sky in his future battles.
Good on ya !
Keep it up !
May your angel watch over you !
Thanx,
Stefan
We should ALL do what Splitting the Sky tried alone to do — we should ALL push through the police protection en masse to arrest Bush or Cheney wherever they may appear in public, to the extent and with the persistence that they could not stop and arrest us all! And, we should not stand down in this repeated and repeated AND REPEATED act of absolute respect for and insistence on the law of decency until our insistence on the trial of our shameless oppressors is acceeded to. We must back up our brother, brave Splitting-the-Sky all the way to justice and liberation!
Canadian law mandates any suspected war criminal be arrested on entry to Canada. It’s the law. Those who fail to enforce this law, from ministers (prime ones too) to prosecutors having jurisdiction, to national and municipal police officers, all are in violation of the law.
To think that Bush would be lead away in shackles is just plain crazy. No, not by a fellow member of ‘The Coalition of the Coerced’. The fact that he wasn’t arrested justifies citizen action, the fact that a citizen was arrested for taking action is just plain irony. The criminals arresting law enforcement, the new normal.
The Obstruction of Justice charge is yet another orwellian juxtaposition. Who’s justice was obstructed? This is akin to being charged with assaulting a peace officer because you raised an arm to deflect a truncheon.
Support for Splitting the Sky shouldn’t be limited to dollars. Contribute with your time, call in sick, go to court next March 8. There must be thousands of like-minded individuals in Calgary alone. If even ten percent assembled in solidarity, any fair-minded judge would have to recognize the legitimacy of civil action. The picture of the laughing pinheads and uniformed goons should also help, considering the context.

Interesting to see how even the Canadian media, particularly CanWest publications such as The Gazette in Montreal, continue to censor (i.e., not publish) any comments which present proof that 9/11 was an inside job implemented by the US military and intelligence agencies, possibly with the assistance of the Mossad.
Yet they will post numerous comments and ad hominem attacks which are derisive of 9/11 truth researchers, but which do not provide any facts to support their dismissive remarks.
Obviously, they are trying to fight a rear-guard action against the increasing doubt of the world about the “official” 9/11 fractured fairy tale.
Their lies, obfuscation, misrepresentation and gross omissions are part of the reason why the mainstream media has lost its credibility, and why newspapers and American TV news chains continue to lose their audiences.
Fewer and fewer believe their lies.
The courageous act of Splitting the Sky should be the tip of the iceberg, the start of creating a tidal wave of resistance to the tyrannies of the evil ones hiding behind their false gaurd of compliant, co-conspiratorial “law” enforcement. When the rule of law is being usurped, it is the duty of all citizens to resist. Should that we all be able to summon the courage this brave and noble warrior for truth and justice has shown, and take actions of our own.
Dacajeweiah (Splitting the Sky) doesn’t have jurisdiction in Canada. So he is not entitled to arrest criminals of any kind. Unfortunately this is the crucial fact. Taking the law into one’s own hands is no good, and I don’t see the point in doing it even as mere street theatre.
I admit that Dacajeweiah (Splitting the Sky) demonstrates that the law enforcement doesn’t work when it comes to Bush and his ilk. Moreover, it is almost unthinkable that any prosecutor in this world will ever order his arrest. We all know that if any prosecutor fulfilled that duty, his/her career would immediately come to an end. It would even be considered a “scandal”, “political activism” and an insult to the U.S.
The core members of the criminal Bush cabinet has of course from the outset understood that this is how it works, that they can kill 3000 of their own citizens (911) and one million Iraqis with impunity.
Correction, I have full jurisdiction in this country as my family tree is from Six Nations in Brantford Ontario.
And when did you acquire jurisdiction Mr. phony name.
I’ve had mixed feelings about this . Although STS see’s me as a CSIS agent or what ever he’s saying about me these days..dosnt matter to me. If we were buds (and we are not) I would have advised him or better still tried to stop him from getting arrested. I want so very much to see George W. Bush face war crimes as much as most on this page but not at the risk of injury to himself and especially to the risk he put the officers in and public who were close to the take down.
All this has accomplished is excitement and a lot of hope with-in the choir activist movementsand very little to nothing in the main stream media and to Canadians in general.
Along with the several suggestions I sent to STS including removing the malicious Jack Blood interviews August 13th broadcast that will be of no benifit to any one… I also suggested to STS to round up the truthers in Cowtown and get the STS message out to as many Calgarians as possible (like Civil Information Activism we do in Edmonton) It will better serve STS and the 9/11 truth movement to educate citizens as what could be a historical day in court come March no one should miss. I suggested using Nathan Moulton’s video coverage and mass producing hundreds of DVDs along with leaflets at hand this stuff out at every busy corner in Calgary. If he wasnt so bent on shutting me down in the 9/11 truth movement (and has accomplished) he might have had two cities in Alberta civil informationing the masses with this historical case… I guess anger gets the best of us sometimes , and we just cant see the forrest for the trees .
What ever, He’s got it all covered. I hope he gets the job done in Calgary….
Napster Renegade. You had been warned. Profanity will not longer be accepted.
Hello to everyone, in Montreal, Nanaimo, Calgary and Lethbridge as well as Mohawk territories that came out to hear me speak.
I just want to take a second and thank you all for your organizing skills and for all who expressed their solidarity.
Videos of these talks will be coming out soon and there are many more people expressing their support worldwide.
STS
Splitting the Sky, great move and the highest respect.
I will spread the word of your heroic action, every single soul that died unjustly will be next to you supporting you and giving you the strength you will need for pursuing your righteous course.
A part from spreading the word with my acquaintance I will also write to Noam Chomsky, everything I have heard and read from him goes into the direction of your attempt to arrest GWB. He can justify that in the most scholastic way ever.
Even though he doesn’t admit publicly that the official 911 story is a sham, in my view he doesn’t want to bother hindering his credibility on something he cannot prove where he has plenty of arguments to bring to trial GWB and friend 100 times already. He will not back down on GWB being a war criminal, as he has never back pedalled in 50 years, I am sure that he will at least speak to his huge audience about you and your action.
I encourage everybody to write to him, he has a large audience and this could be the only way to spur followers of your noble action: chomsky@mit.edu (chomsky at mit.edu).
I owuld also suggest getting in touch with Ward Churchill, if he isn’t aware of this yet. I terms of native American cause Ward is the man.
Norman Finkelstein is also a great consistent scholar and he would certainly back your claim too.
It would also be the case of contacting a couple of internet media like Democracy Now etc… I personally came across this story only because I read a comment on youtube, is there a footage of your action so that we can upload it?
I know Chomsky and Finkelstein are Jew, but I encourage everybody to avoid any sort of generalisation, as 1 righteous man can save all of humanity, as an example, Jesus was Jew too. I truly believe that, if something will ever be done, it will come from the inside, a military coup or something of that sort, yet other human beings on the other side of the fence need to see such examples, and in greater number, to open their eyes.
There are many unknown or future heroes out there, my thoughts go with them too.
God bless people of good will, and open the eyes of the rest.
