Washichu (white people) call it the Black Hills. This place is their Har HaBayit. It is where they were created. It is where they go to seek visions. In 1868 the government of the United States signed a treaty with Chief Red Cloud that the Paha Sapa would be Lakota land for "as long as the grass shall grow and the river shall run..." In 1874 George Custer led an expedition there in violation of the treaty. They found gold. Any guesses as to how long it was before the United States stole that land? Custer got his at Little Big Horn, but the Lakota still do not have the Paha Sapa back. If anyone thinks that a nation that would steal holy land from people with whom they treated would hesitate to take Yesha, Jerusalem, and every other place we hold dear, they are living in a dream land.<br /><br />The United States is not Israel's friend, never has been, and it's about time world Jewry figured that out.Shtueyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05611947223509549389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-22411314955000053032009-09-09T19:35:59.426+03:002009-09-09T19:35:59.426+03:00Thanks so much for posting this!!Thanks so much for posting this!!Batyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09402874037427009327noreply@blogger.com
