Dear friends, allies and supporters of Leonard Peltier,

We just talked to Leonard. He is doing amazingly well considering what he has gone through in the last three months. He wants to let you know all his prisoner rights have been restored at Lewisburg. He appreciates your help and support in achieving this but requests all of us to please stop calling the prison, otherwise that may have negative repercusions on him.

Thank you for supporting Leonard throughout this crisis!

Dear friends, allies, and supporters of Leonard Peltier,

A quick note to pass on three things you could do to continue helping Leonard:

1. The e-birthday card is coming along nicely, there are already seven pages!  Today is the last day to sign it, I will be downloading and printing it right after midnight PST. Please add you birthday wishes if you haven't done so already! http://users.skynet.be/kola/lpbd-p7.htm

2. Many supporters have forwarded the following poll to decide who is the greatest Native person of all times. We, of course, encourage you to vote for Leonard. http://terrrijean.smartwriters.com/index.2ts?page=gna

Hi Folks, for those of you who do not know who Ed Woods is... The man is a retired FBI agent who for the five last years has been the wicked brain behind the NPPA site. The No Peltier Parole Association. Now, say the acronym out loud with the syntax on the two middle letters. nPPa ... (grin)

As one can expect, the website and all of Ed Woods' other writings are pure FBI propaganda and lies. Ed, after his retirement, suddenly finding himself with a lot more free time and apparently nothing better to do, is continuously bashing Leonard Peltier, the LPDC, Leonard's lawyers, and Peltier supporters all over the globe. He enjoys sending personal emails too, allegedly wanting to lure people into what he himself calls a "serious discussion", but only so that he can later pick out a phrase or a paragraph and use that on his website, his nPPa newslist, and his other scribbles. Sometimes the quotes are used completely out of context, other times he just uses them, or rather tries to use them to prove he's right (he thinks).

In a way, I am glad that I am one of his "targets". The more he picks on me, the more I know he is in fact scared. Very scared. Scared of all of us who defend justice and the truth. It means we're doing our job darn well, too. Why else would he be so afraid?!

By the way, Ed-the-fed is subscribed to this newslist. And no, folks, I will not unsub him. We - in stark contrast to himself and his (former) FBI colleagues - have nothing to hide. The truth is plain and simple: Leonard Peltier is innocent. And the truth is there for everyone to see. Just take a brief look through all the FBI documents that were already released. Their own darn documents prove it!

Now, why am I writing all of this? Well, for the past two months, I thought Ed Woods had finally given up, or had found himself another passtime, because his website had not been updated since June, he never wrote anything poisonous or sarcastic about Leonard's transfer, and I stopped receiving his personal silly messages. Until yesterday... Ed Woods reappeared. And how!

This nasty idiot had the audacity to sign the online birthday card for Leonard !!! It's a very short message. Here's the online form as it tumbled into my mailbox: To: kolahq@skynet.be Subject: Your Form Submission From: [3]justice@noparolepeltier.com Date: Sat, 3 Sep 2005 07:12:55 -0700 (PDT)

MESSAGE SENT THROUGH YOUR WEBSITE This form was submitted: Sep 03 2005 / 16:12:55 by a visitor with this IP Address: 69.61.145.158 url = [4]http://users.skynet.be/kola/lpbd2005.htm name = Ed Woods replyemail = [5]justice@noparolepeltier.com country = USA Comments = Enjoy your birthday.

For people who don't know who this individual is, it might seem harmless. Believe me: it sure isn't. This is not even just a little sarcasm from the man. This is bilious vicious malicious glee. This is utterly disgusting!

At the same time, I think Ed Woods is also rather pathetic. But maybe, I misunderstood the man. Maybe ' THE HEALING HAS BEGUN... AND ED WOODS IS SENDING HIS ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF APOLOGY FOR ALL THE LIES IN THE PAST AND WISHES LEONARD PELTIER A VERY HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND FREEDOM AND JUSTICE!" ???

No way! Don't you believe it, folks.

Once again Ed Woods showed his true color(s)... a slimy poisonous green...

Allow me to repeat myself: he is PATHETIC !!!

According to the dictionary, "pathetic" means: hapless: deserving or inciting pity; inspiring mixed contempt and pity; inspiring scornful pity... or to quote Dashiel Hammett: "how silly an ardent and unsuccessful wooer can be especially if he is getting on in years".

Needless to say that this is - up to now - the first message this year which will NOT be posted on the birthday site. As for the other people who signed the online birthday card: so far, over 320 people have already signed it. People from all across the USA, Canada, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Italy, Belgium, Uruguay, Sweden, Norway, Spain, Australia, Brazil ... We have four full web pages... and still four and half days to go. :-)

Last year, in one of his silly scribbles, Ed Woods wrote I was the most rabid and schizophrenic of Peltier's supporters. Well , this one's for you, Ed: Rabidly yours, Els Herten

STEVE ROBIDEAU, ANOTHER NORTHWEST AIM WARRIOR CROSSES OVER TO THE SPIRIT WORLD


On behalf of the Leonard Peltier Defense Committee team, Leonard Peltier and Russ Redner offer their condolences to the Robideau family as they themselves grieve for Steve Robideau, their brother and friend.  As Leonard stated today, Steve will be missed he did a lot for me.

Leonard received the news yesterday, Saturday, September 3rd, early in the morning before going into the prison sweat. All the brothers in the ceremony at USP Lewisburg prayed for Steve's spirit. Steve and Leonard grew up together, like brothers. They were both very close to each others families and children. Leonard tells us that a few days ago he had a dream in which he and Steve were in a 60s Cadillac, they were both happy and laughing, and free. Leonard got out and walked in the snow, he felt the peace and happiness of his brother. Perhaps this dream was Steve's way of saying good-bye, and a good way for Leonard to remember him.

Russ recalls that driving was Steve's favorite way to think. He would drive for miles thinking of ways to free Leonard. Steve and Tico (his wife then) were the very first ones to go to Canada in 1976, along with Leonard's mother Alvina, to organize Leonard's defense.  Russ joined them after the first hiatus of his Portland trial, established the LPDC, and left Steve in charge. From that point on Steve became the one brother who gave the most of his time and dedication to freeing Leonard, and as Russ puts it left very high standards to follow. The In the Spirit of Crazy Horse Newsletter was Steve's creation. Even though the newsletter has not been published in a while, the new LPDC will bring it back to life as a tribute to Steve.

The last time Russ saw Steve was during the 25^th anniversary of Wounded Knee where he asked Russ to get Leonard's plight on the agenda. In Northwest AIM style, Steve and Russ briefly took over the program and Ida Stuntz, Joe Stuntzs sons, and others joined in, bringing attention to our warrior behind bars in an occasion where his cause could not go unnoticed.

Recently, Grandma Roselyn Jumping Bull remembered Steve as the only one who would go to Pine Ridge two weeks ahead of the June 26^th commemoration and do everything that needed to be done so she and her family would have no burdens associated with the event. Grandma Dorothy Ackerman, of Portland, Oregon, also remembered Steve very fondly and was very saddened to know he had passed on to the Spirit world.

This is how everybody who loved him remembers Steve, as a hard working, committed warrior, someone who will watch over our efforts here on behalf of Leonard and for justice for all Native people, and a tough act to follow. We, at the LPDC, pledge to build on his sacrifice and never forget his legacy.

In the Spirit of all our warriors.

The LPDC Team

NOTE: We encourage all who knew Steve to sign the guest book on the Rapid City Journal at http://www.legacy.com/Link.asp?Id=GB15007397X
