In The 1970's The FBI's Counterintelligence Operations Did Not End, But Were Instead Modernized To Make Them Even More Secretive & Invasive
In the modern day, the FBI's COINTELPRO operations continue to utilize more sophisticated means in which to target American citizens, whose rights continue to be quietly decimated without their knowledge or consent.
See the following article for more on the FBI's modernized criminal and anti-American operations.

One Of The FBI's Greatest Shames
The Murder Of Anna Mae Aquash
The Framing Of Leonard Peltier In Two FBI Deaths
After more than three decades imprisoned for crimes that he did not commit, one must wonder who was actually responsible for the murders of two FBI agents on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in 1975. Is it possible that these newly hired agents were the victims of friendly fire?
There is no longer any question that their presence at the Pine Ridge Reservation was as the result of an FBI COINTELPRO sting operation, being used to cause problems between members of the American Indian Movement, while setting up AIM's leader at the time, Leonard Peltier.
All perpetrated by the FBI in a conspiratorial effort to destroy The American Indian Movement.
To this very day the FBI remains insistent that Peltier committed these murders, even though it's become quite obvious that the evidence against Peltier was fabricated by the FBI.
The real question is are the FEDS concerned that if Peltier is ever exonerated for these crimes, that the public may begin to wonder if the two federal agents murdered at Wounded Knee were killed by some of their fellow agents?
This would certainly be a reason for the FBI to make certain that Leonard Peltier is never exonerated. And why the Judiciary has for the past three decades made certain that he is never given another trial. Yet another criminal conspiracy perpetrated by the FBI and the Department Of Justice against an American citizen.
An illustration of how the FBI coerced Myrtle Poor Bear to bear false witness against Leonard Peltier under the threat of death if she did not acquiece to the FBI's demands. Further evidence of the terrorist organization that the FBI has always been, and how the U.S. Justice Department normally ignores the FBI's criminality -- oftentimes attempting to obscure it from the public.
"FBI Agent David Price told Anna Mae (AIM activist Anna Mae Aquash) he would see her dead if she did not talk, and within a year she was found with a bullet in the back of her head. Myrtle (the woman whom the FBI coerced into bearing false witness against Leonard Peltier -- committing perjury)was shown pictures of Anna Mae's corpse. At the beginning of Leonard's trial, Myrtle came to the defense and asked to testify about what the FBI did to her, but the judge ruled that 'if believed, Myrtle Poor Bear's testimony would shock the conscience of the court'."
The Case Of Leonard Peltier

Imagine, if you would for a minute, living in a room the size of your bathroom. Imagine spending most of your life over the last 10 years enclosed in such a place. Three walls and bars. Imagine the feeling of nearly constant confinement, walls closing in on you, and the continuous battle to suppress all thought of such. Imagine being there not because you are a criminal, a threat to society, but because you devoted your life to the well-being of your people. Imagine having to be cautious of every move you make, for eyes are forever on you, waiting for you to slip. Imagine knowing that those who are your keepers wish you dead and have, in the past, tried to assassinate you. Imagine living this life, imprisoned by a frame-up, by a massive conspiracy by the Government of the United States of America. Imagine the life of Leonard Peltier.
Leonard Peltier is a Chippewa/Lakota American Indian Movement (AIM) activist who was framed on the charge of aiding and abetting in the deaths of two F.B.I. agents on the Pine Ridge Lakota Reservation in South Dakota on June 26, 1975.
After the Lakota/AIM occupation of Wounded Knee in 1973 there were many trials of AIM activists and sympathizers which occurred because the FBI began a campaign of `targeting' AIM activists. Over 300 unsolved and uninvestigated murders of traditional Lakota took place before the Lakota Elders asked A.I.M. activists to come in for their protection.
AIM had set up on the jumping Bulls' property near Oglala, within the Pine Ridge Reservation. On June 26th, 1975, two FBI agents entered the jumping Bulls' property and a shoot-out occurred. The two FBI agents were killed and Joseph Stuntz, a 21-year-old Coeur d'Alene Indian, was also killed. It would seem that the FBI agents went in as part of a coordinated action, for there were numerous FBI and BIA agents in the area and within two hours over 200 agents and others were at the site of the shoot-out. Also, at the same time, in Washington, D.C., pro-government Indians of Pine Ridge were negotiating away 133,000 acres of Lakota land.
The federal government indicted four Indians - Leonard Peltier, Dino Butler, Bob Robideau, and James Eagle. Charges were later dropped against Eagle. Dino Butler and Bob Robideau were tried in Cedar Rapids, Iowa; they used the defense of self-defense in a long-continued atmosphere of official harassment and they were found not guilty.
Leonard Peltier was arrested in Canada and held in chains in Okalla Prison. He was extradited from Canada on statements coerced (by FBI agents) from Myrtle Poor Bear implicating Leonard in the deaths of the agents. Myrtle was told that if she did not sign the statements she would end up like Anna Mae Aquasn. Anna Mae was one of the hundreds of people were detained and questioned in the days after the shoot-out.
FBI Agent David Price told Anna Mae he would see her dead if she did not talk, and within a year she was found with a bullet in the back of her head. Myrtle was shown pictures of Anna Mae's corpse. At the beginning of Leonard's trial, Myrtle came to the defense and asked to testify about what the FBI did to her, but the judge ruled that "if believed, Myrtle Poor Bear's testimony would shock the conscience of the court".
After the loss of the Iowa trial, the government decided to go all out to get Leonard Peltier. First, they shifted the jurisdiction from Iowa to North Dakota and Judge Paul Benson (a Nixon appointee) became the new judge. The FBI and federal prosecutors denied defense requests for evidence such as ballistics reports, autopsy reports and other evidence which would have aided Leonard's defense. Judge Benson denied the defense the right to present to the jury testimony about FBI misconduct around the case. Despite only very circumstantial evidence against Leonard, he was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment for two lifetimes.
With his case in the Appeals Court, Leonard struggled in prison for better prison conditions and for the right of Indian prisoners to practice their religion. This led to a fast by Leonard -58 Peltier, Al Garza and Standing Deer in Marion Federal Prison after the lockdown. Positive effects are still being felt from this fast.
Through the Freedom of Information Act, Leonard's defense was able to get 12,000 pages of FBI files on his case. These files contradicted or threw into question every point of "evidence" against Leonard at his trial.
In April 1984, the Appeals Court ordered the trial judge to hold an "evidentiary hearing" on the meaning of a telegram from the FBI office in Washington, D.C. to the field office in South Dakota, which stated that the gun attributed to Leonard could not have fired the bullet which was used in Leonard's trial to link him to the "murders". At the hearing in October 1984, when the FBI ballistics expert was caught in perjured testimony and later came in and changed his testimony, the trial judge, in his decision, stated that since the agent came back and changed his testimony, he only added to his reliability.
The Appeals Court agreed to hear oral arguments and these were made on October 15, 1985. The judges' questions demolished the Government's case against Leonard in a courtroom with many supporters. In front of the courthouse, supporters held a vigil which had been preceded by months of rallies, vigils, a walk, and thousands of petitions and letters sent to the Court. The U.S. Attorney acknowledged to the judges that the Government does not know who killed the agents, they cannot prove that the gun used was in Leonard's possession; cannot prove the connection between the shell casing found in the agent's car and the gun Leonard is said to have been using.
We are now waiting for the decision from the Appeals Court. There is a great need for people to let the Appeals Court judges know they support a new trial for Leonard Peltier. Please write letters of support to:

People of all colors and backgrounds should come together and support Leonard Peltier, not only because of the above reasons, but also because it affects them. The government will use, and has used, these same tactics against ALL people who have stood up to their shameful game. Leonard Peltier's case is the one case that we can prove beyond any doubt that the government conspired to frame an activist. Thus, if we can get Leonard a new trial, this will be a step in the struggle against governmental suppression and abuse of activities.
