Does anyone on DU know about or understand the Camel's Eye Treaty?

I am posting opinions on my blog to assist my Mohawk kin BUT I am not into religion, mythology, or ancient history so am completely lost, here.

Is this a scam or another form of Scientology? These people have taken over the Akwesasne Mohawk Rez which straddles the US/Canada border and I can�t figure out why. Help!!!

4. Thanks again, bananas. Always like to see our people make it, .

I maintain there are five ways a Native American can get ahead in the US - education, entertainment, media, politics, and sports.

7. Camel Toe Treaty?

Like the Chinese water torture, Canada is trying to extort protection money from us one drop at a time. Some of those community members who carry purple cards identifying themselves as Camel Toe Treaty people say it was signed in Central Park in New York City in 409 AD where Egyptian tombs were left behind. Their passport provides that we were signatories to the treaty that brought down the Roman Empire! This apparently gives Rotinoshonni onwe freedom of movement. It has no basis in the Great Law or in history.

I just cut and pasted that from the link you provided. What it mean is beyond mental capacity because I'm an idiot. :shrug:

9. Maybe the Book of Mormon can shed some light on this subject

I understand the Mormons believe Jesus visited North America after his death. Perhaps there is mention of Jesus attending as a visiting dignitary at the signing of the Camel Toe Treaty.

12. The Roman Empre was not defeated in 408 AD

This is all new age myth.

As such, it means as much as any other myth.

13. These New Age people are deliberately picking an area where there is already

confrontation between the Mohawks and Canadian Gov't about the border people bringing guns into Akwesasne. The Mohawks said 'no guns" and the border was closed.

Now, the New Agers are really muddying up the water because they also are against guns on the border - so they say. Looks like they found an an excuse to move in and try to take over.

Now, that makes some sense!!!!!
