The Pipelines and passes....

[Blindgreed1]

So you 'know it', but you don't know how you know it, Gunnar?

Because.......while I haven't followed the demonstrations and protests daily, I'm pretty up-to-speed on the project, the boundary treaty, the parties and their disputes, and the meetings and court filings between the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe, the U.S. Army Engineering Corp, and ETP.

I've not seen, nor does it make any sense to me, that the protest started over the Native American Council turning down a $10 million payoff because they wanted $20 million. That's effin' chump change for ETP, especially in terms of the 4-state Dakota Pipeline Project (on which they've already completed major construction and spent over $1 billion in equipment alone). So, I imagine if what you claim you somehow know was actually true, that check would have been written long ago. Also, a number of archeologists (as well as the state archeologist) who still maintain there aren't any human remains in the area.

MS, can you fill me in on how Gunnar knows what he knows; the source of your "Bingo!" moment? I'm truly interested.

Yeah, I read it somewhere, can't remember where. This was back in August I believe. I tried to search the article, but didn't have any luck. There's been a lot of shady shit going on with this thing from the beginning, so just like anything else these days, each side has their own version of the truth but the truth lies somewhere in-between the two.
