BLACKFEET TRIBE-STATE OF MONTANA WATER COMPACT "UNEQUAL" TO INDIAN LANDOWNERS

Dispossessed Blackfeet Original Allottees and their heirs have unresolved land and resource claims to recover stolen Blackfeet land allotments on the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. Institutional Equity is a requirement by the Congress of the United States to treat all governments equally-federal, state, tribal, county, municipal in the settlement of all water claims. The state-tribal water compact hearings held in Browning on the Blackfeet Reservation did not allow testimony from tribal heirs to the original allottees who had their lands stolen during the allotment period 1907-1922. Hundreds of original Blackfeet landowners had their family lands robbed by a "Deliberate conspiracy" to defraud hundreds of allottees of 312,250 acres by 1922, which became the land base of Glacier County on the reservation, which has grown to 529,000 acres, and is growing each year like a cancer on the Indians. Glacier and Pondera counties are white-apartheid territories transplanted on the reservation to cover up massive land frauds of Blackfeet allotments in 1918-1922 that generate $850 million for the white landowners living on stolen Blackfeet allotments. The Blackfeet survived physical genocides of 6,000 of their tribal population of 7,800 at contact with Montana border-whites in 1860-1890, and today remain under political/economic attack of whites for the remaining Blackfeet lands and resources. I was thrown out of the meeting at Browning in 2010 by the state-tribal-federal officials who all have something criminal and shameful to hide from Congress and the American people. We brought our claims to the Senate Indian Affairs Committee in 1903, 1922, 1928, 1944, 1966, 1976, 1981, 2001, 2005, and many times over the past decade, but our claims are sitting on the shelf at the committee in Washington D.C. We are the poor Indian people who have been robbed by federal trustees who represent the American people. Is this your Government? We have been denied a fair hearing before Congress for a century, and the water compact is just another example of government neglect. The irony is that it is the Blackfeet people who have provided clear titles to the United States of America in sacred treaties, so that the United States enjoys a status among nations of the world as a fair and just nation, and would never cheat a helpless and dependent treaty people and side with a band of crooks who robbed the Indians land and soiled the honor of the United States in treaty. We only ask to be treated as an equal before the law as every American is entitled by birth and tradition. I am a poverty dispossessed treaty Indian, living among deceitful, crooked white men living on grandma's cattle ranch on the reservation, who didn't even bother to wear a mask. Bob Juneau Sr.
