Re-create 68 is known COINTELPRO
And it can be tied directly to known operatives/ provacateurs.

Re-create 68 is the group that is trying to start some shit in Denver and Rush is all for it.

Here is the Whois info from his website (recreate68 dot org)

Registrant ID:GODA-024950452
Registrant Name:Glenn Spagnuolo
Admin Name:Glenn Spagnuolo
P.O. Box 311
Sedalia, Colorado 80135 US
7207714669



Spagnuolo is a "buddy" of Ward Churchill. On his website he cheered some good news for his buddy Glenn after a lawsuit against Glenn was dropped. These two people run in many of the same circles and can easily be connected.

DAN CAPLIS DROPS LAWSUIT AGAINST ACTIVIST AND R-68 ORGANIZER!



Here is where AIM (the American Indian Movement) comment on Churchill's previous COINTELPRO activities. http://aimovement.org/mckiernan.html


Analyses: A 30 year former law enforcement officer says there is a high probability that the person in the pictures is the same. He picked the left and the right pictures as the most consistent with each other. We do know that the right image is that of Ward Churchill. The left image is a picture that is found in the book "The Life and Death of Anna Mae Aquash", by Johanna Brand, (2nd publishing only) James Lorimer & Company, Publishers, Eger Ryerson Memorial Building, 35 Britain Street, Toronto, Ontario: $14.95 from 1978. The photo was one of three taken before Kevin McKiernan on July 26th, 1975 was ordered out of the area, the Airport at Pine Ridge. This is the day of the shoot-out at Oglala. The other two photos clearly show FBI agents getting out of a helicopter. The man in the photo on the left also got out of the same helicopter, but was not identitfied by the usual "FBI" printed on the shirt pocket that others have.

Churchill's book, Agents of Repression, page 438, item 49 reads:

"49. Author Churchill experienced one of these sweeps firsthand when, while driving across Pine Ridge on June 27, 1975, the dday after the gunfight at the Jumping Bull residence that claimed the lives of AIM member Joe Stuntz and FBI agents Jack Coler and Ron Williams, he stopped to urinate alongside the road, about five miles south of Porcupine. Over the ridge came an APC, accompanied by some 20 FBI and BIA police personnel, moving "on line," carrying M-16s, and dressed in Vietnam-style jungle fatigues, boots, and bush hats. Most of the group was also wearing military-issue flack-jackets. Needless to say, the whole scene afforded a sense of deja-vu to the viewer, given that he had spent a year in Southwest Asia in combat."


This is a huge setup along the lines of the infultration of AIM and the Leonard Peltier Incident at Pine Ridge Reservation. These people are KNOWN COINTELPRO provocateurs and they are trying to get us in trouble and discredited.

C'mon, all you legal scholars. Can the Rush be indicted for this?

7. I'm no legal scholar, but yesterday did a quick Google search
and if I'm remembering right, there was a decision in Kansas on this issue, and it stated something like "if a person as part of a group of five or more people" incites others to riot, then it was a criminal offense. So I'm not sure if that decision still stands, or sets a precedent for other states; I have no idea how that works. And I'm not sure if Limpballs could be indicted for speaking on his own and not as a representative of a group...just thoughts from a non-lawyer, but I could well be wrong *lol* it's been known to happen.
Regardless, even if it IS a crime, he'll never be indicted. He's too valuable as a tool of the Reich Wing Nut party.

8. I don't know what's going on there but it's very telling that the RW echo chamber
Seems to have been all over this Recreate 68 thing for several weeks now and I'm just hearing about it. The site looks like a cheesy astroturf set-up. Even the name "Recreate 68" is telling. I was in my mum's tummy during the '68 Convention but from my understanding, the events that transpired there did more to harm the liberal cause than help it. So who but the RW would want to 'recreate' it?

38. On protests at the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago (Rennie Davis):
... the mayor of the city made the decision, somewhat unexpectedly, to not grant <demonstration> permits .. And so I called Ramsey Clark, who was the attorney general under Johnson and said, "What's the deal here?" And he sent out a man .. to assist me .. to get permits ... That didn't mean that the Johnson people supported what we would say, but they supported our right to assemble. And ... the mayor stuck to his guns and no permits were granted ...

We did evaluate calling it off ... And then we went in really with the intent to not just subject ourselves to billy clubs, but to withdraw and pull back ... As an example, Catholic priests and nuns came to our support in Chicago on the second day of the demonstration, and gathered around a big cross, and I went to them and said, "Really, when the police come in here tonight, you should be departing. You know, we are not violent, but nonviolence does not mean that you need to subject yourselves to what will happen." And they did stay, and they got bloodied ...

... anchormen from major network television were also having their heads bloodied, and people that were neighbors in local Chicago communities next to the park were pulled off their porch stoops and beaten senseless ...

... I was standing .. with a bullhorn and addressed the police .. that .. if they would just pull back ... then we could continue with our rally ... It was quite an experience really, having ... 40 to 50 policemen yelling "Kill Davis!" ... And then it was very interesting: I went to the hospital, which was a county hospital of Chicago, and the police put out an all-point alert to have me arrested ... And so they did a room-by-room search of the hospital, and to this day I'm totally amazed by this: I had medical doctors, nurses and staff of the administration, with me on a table with a sheet over me, rolling me down and hiding me from a police search room-by-room ...

16. where are likely forums & message boards that naive young Democrat activists would see?
I remember as a 20-something in the late 60s, probably being vulnerable to something like this. We were pissed off and ready to rumble, feeling quite militant. Any ideas for the best way to get the word out about it?

Idiots and Feds.

11. Just asking for info. Please don't flame me. I am ignorant on this topic.
You are saying that Ward Churchill, the guy who got all the 911 publicity is Cointelpro?

Despite all this AIM stuff, I never heard of the guy until 911.

The first thing that comes up when I google Churchill and Spagnuolo is a book that Churchill wrote - wait for it - on COINTELPRO! (The Cointelpro papers, 1990).

Is this Cointelpro stuff known from pre-911?

----

This kind of situation is exactly what Cointelpro loves. Everyone accusing everyone else of disloyalty. Please sort this out for me. I am seriously confused.

14. It's Democrats getting all huffy about Progressives protesting at the convention.
Workers World Party members are behind the Recreate68 protests.

Larry Hales is an organizer for IAC and a leader in FIST, a WWP youth group.
"Hales has been a primary organizer of a number of anti-imperialist and anti-racist events in Denver. He is a leader of the youth group FIST--Fight Imperialism, Stand Together; a founder of Colorado United Communities Against Police Brutality; and an organizer with the International Action Center and the Troops Out Now Coalition.

Hales is also a principal organizer in the Recreate 68 Committee, which is planning protests to counter the Democratic National Convention to be held in Denver in August."

18. by speaking out against the government Churchill is trying to get "street cred"
Ward Churchill has been lying for years. Everything out of his mouths is tainted with self glory and self importance. He is trying to make a name for himself so that he can join, found, and lead a movement. His actions reek of "inpendendant operator"

On May 16, 2006 the University released its investigative committee findings. The Investigative Committee, a five-member subcommittee of the Standing Committee on Research Misconduct, agreed unanimously that Churchill had engaged in "serious research misconduct," including four counts of falsifying information, two counts of fabricating information, two counts of plagiarizing the works of others, improperly reporting the results of studies, and failing to "comply with established standards regarding author names on publications." In addition, the committee found him "disrespectful of Indian oral traditions."
http://www.colorado.edu/news/reports/churchill/download/WardChurchillReport.pdf


He has tried to join different "autonomous chapters of AIM" to try to split up the base of AIM. He carries a paper card that identifies him as a member of the Keetoowah Tribe of Oklahoma- This card is given out to anyone and is not legit. The tribe even gave one of these "tribal identification cards" to Bill Clinton (who is not a Native American).

http://www.aimovement.org/moipr/cherokee.html

The former chairman of the Keetoowah band of Cherokee Indians says University of Colorado professor Ward Churchill was given an honorary membership that required no proof of Cherokee heritage.

John Ross led the tribe for several years in the 1990s. He says the Keetoowah established an "associate member" program to recognize friends of the tribe.

"If somebody helped out in a certain way, to honor them they'd give them an associate membership," Ross said Thursday. "There were 300 or 400 associate members."

Former President Clinton also was given an honorary membership in the tribe.

To be a full-fledged member of the Keetoowah, a person has to prove he or she is at least one-fourth Cherokee. Churchill has never had such a membership. Only full members are allowed to vote, hold office and receive tribal privileges.

Churchill has cited his associate membership in the tribe as proof of his Cherokee roots. He told The Denver Post on Wednesday he is three-sixteenths Cherokee. In the past, he has described himself as one-sixteenth Cherokee and also claimed to have Creek Indian blood. Ross said Churchill came to several Keetoowah celebrations in the early 1990s and befriended tribal members, who decided they wanted to give him the associate membership.


Churchill is a known disruptor, so in my opinion and many others, anything that he does is tainted with the same stink he tried to commit in the name of his phony chapter of AIM

20. Thanks. There is a difference between a disruptor and a cointelpro agent, tho...
I figure that, if the guy actually wrote a book on Cointelpro, and the leftwing community still finds him tainted/dirty, then the guy is probably an agent provocateur.

And, then, the fact that he made such a stink (and a botch) of the 911 thing would give yet another "back-bearing" (as if we needed one) to the fact that the government wants to bury 911.

Anyway, I would be interested in anything about Churchill's Cointelpro book.

21. This attack on Churchill is over the split in AIM
"Ideological differences within AIM

As is true with many national liberation movements (PLO, African National Congress), ideological differences emerged within AIM over the years. In 1993, AIM split into two main factions, each claiming that it was the authentic inheritor of the AIM tradition, and that the other had betrayed the original principles of the movement. One group, based in Minneapolis, MN and associated with the Bellecourts, is known as the AIM-Grand Governing Council, while the other segment of the movement, led by, among others, Russell Means, was named AIM-International Confederation of Autonomous Chapters.

The split was formalized when the latter group issued its "Edgewood Declaration" in 1993, citing organizational grievances and authoritarian leadership by the Bellecourts. However, ideological differences seem to have simmered for a long time, with the Grand Governing Council (GGC) presenting a spiritual, albeit more mainstream, approach to activism. The GCC tends toward a more centralized, controlled political philosophy. The autonomous chapters argue that AIM has always been organized as a series of decentralized, autonomous chapters, with local leadership that is accountable to local constituencies. The autonomous chapters reject the assertions of central control by the Minneapolis group as contrary both to indigenous political traditions, and to the original philosophy of AIM. The autonomous chapters within AIM, while also spiritually guided by indigenous ceremonialism, tend more toward third world national liberation strategies and indigenous nationalism, as recently embodied in the movement of the Zapatista Army of National Liberation in Mexico, and in the election of Evo Morales in Bolivia."

22. But such a split begs the question: was the split the result of a cointelpro op?
Radical movements are just too easy for agent provocateurs to wreck.

If Churchill's main claim to fame is AIM, then I am steering clear of anything he does outside of AIM. And, since its not my issue, I won't even attempt to figure out what is going on inside of AIM.

So, even if cointelpro didn't exist, I would come to the conclusion (from fights like the one inside of AIM that you cite) that it did.

What a mess. I wouldn't listen to anything this guy had to say about causing a riot anywhere.

It contains all of the "criticisms" that posters here are using against Churchill.

36. I first read Churchill's Cointelpro book years ago. I have always found it quite useful.
I think the original is out of print, and the copy I have now is an updated revision/rewrite, which is still available from the publisher

Churchill seems sometimes a bit self-aggrandizing -- but I seriously doubt he's ever been a paid agent of the state. He may have a tin ear and a tendency towards inflexibility

Not being native American myself, I can't speak to the issues in the American Indian community -- which sometimes seems quite polarized about particular issues: when Churchill was in the news a few years ago, the question of Churchill's tribal membership produced a succession of webpages at the same tribal website over a period of several weeks, as various factions edited the site

"Tainted/dirty" would fall under the category "slanderous and unproven." The rightwing has hated Churchill for decades, and it set out to destroy him several years ago. The "plagiarism"/"academic fraud" dismissal was politically motivated, and the committee report used to justify the dismissal was largely a hack job: after reading the report carefully, I concluded that much of the alleged dishonesty was simply invented by the committee in order to strengthen the case for firing him. I should add that there really were one or two examples in the committee report that might reflect poorly on Churchill's scholarship -- but they were relatively minor compared to some well-publicized egregious plagiarism by some very well-known and multiply-awarded scholars who excited no great outrage anywhere and who consequently paid no price, since they had avoided all current political controversies: typically nobody loses tenure over a few such gaffes, when they have as extensive a publication record as Churchill has

You don't destroy your mole like they did to Wade Churchill. Whatever else his faults, he has a long list of publications that point out the evils perpetrated by the government against indigenous peoples. If he's on the dark side, why hasn't Leonard Peltier denounced him? Why would Russell Means still ally himself with him? The last time I saw Means, he was at Camp Casey with Cindy. Come on people. Use your thinking caps. What better way to discredit and destroy a liberal than to accuse him of being a pedophile, CIA operative or a Republican.

13. this group was promoted on DU a year ago--check this out
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x3194234

the OP appears to still be registered but has not posted since about that time, from what I can figure out. Whether OP is part of ops, or just naive, I can't say.

19. infoshop is a loose "clearinghouse" for anarchist information and propaganda
There is some good info on infoshop, but there is definitely a slant towards the violent at any cost. Anyone can get stuff onto infoshop. They have also been linked to unfounded chapters of "Black Bloc".

23. I've started a thread about not demonstrating in Denver. Let's
demonstrate in the Twin Cities at the Corporatist convention.

26. So you're using a ref from AIM to discredit these people?
Oh, please.

AIM itself was infiltrated and that's how Annie ended up dead and Leonard in jail.

These people at NOT known cointelpro provacateurs. They are not interested in the Democratic Convention and are not interested in discrediting Democrats.

Why don't some of you go to Amy Goodman's site and WATCH her interview with Spagnuolo? :crazy:

why are they demonstrating in Denver? :shrug:

28. Because they aren't interested in the *convention* but in the location
of the convention.

They're planning a street fair for democracy. They are all PACIFISTS. :shrug:

30. Wait, okay.
Look, the DNC is August 25-28

The home page of the website explicitly says

" Denver DNC 2008
"Re-create 68"
August 24 - 28, 2008 "

Maybe I am misunderstanding what you are saying to me, but at the very least, they are meeting at the same location, at the same time, of the DNC. To me, this indicates at the very least an interest in the convention and attempting to leverage or piggy back the national media that would be there.

Look, you could take ANY generic political organization that was planning to be around Denver at that time and I'd understand that they want the free publicity, visibility, etc., but the fact that these guys have chosen as their NAME "Recreate 68" seems to be a REAL problem in light of what happened that year. I certainly don't want anyone to recreate that crap.

31. There have been events all over the country this year
to commemorate the activism of that year -- not the police brutality, which oddly enough gets blamed on the protestors! And of course, they want to be in the city where all those party leaders will be gathering to piggy back on the coverage. That would seem to be the point, unless I'm not getting something.

They will, no doubt, protest against the war. Is the party not big enough to manage that?

And there certainly will be infiltrators just like there always are, and people like Rush will try to exploit the situation. That always happens.

Imho, the party would do well to work with these people and not try to stifle them. They have zero history of violence or ugliness. The best thing we could do would be to let them set up their booths -- in contrast to the cages the RNC set up last time.

32. This is just all too too retro for me.
Maybe I'm far too :tinfoilhat: but what happened at the 1968 convention was: we had a horrible, divisive convention, and there were VIOLENT protests, which made us Democrats look even worse, and we went on to LOSE the election. I can just see the same thing happening all over again. Hillary won't throw in the towel, it goes to convention, there is a bloody floor fight, and outside there are demonstrations, which, if I am getting the gist of the OP (which may be very :tinfoilhat: I don't know), but the OP is implying that these groups have been deliberately influenced in order to quite possibly try to ENCOURAGE the violence again....

All I know is, if we wind up electing McCain in the fall, I'm going to have to move out of the country, or something. I can't take our collective stupidity anymore.

33.  I know. But the protests weren't violent, the police were.
Edited on Fri Apr-25-08 03:44 PM by sfexpat2000
('Way to put us off demonstrations.)

Imho, the best way to handle it is to work with this org, to make a space for them, to let them set up their booths.

They have no history of violence at all. It would just make Democrats look good. What would look better than supporting free speech?

This group is being smeared. This is what a smear looks like.

40. I hope not, because it's a load of crap.
Ward Churchill may have his issues, but there is no way he's a secret agent of the right-wing conspiracy.
