FBI CIA Ward Churchill Chair IRTR

For the FBI:



For the CIA:


(this was up yesterday but YM wanted to see what was going to be up on the MIM web site before publishing it).

In case no one else noticed CIA was gutted and has been outsourced to private contractors or had functions transferred to DIA. Though, what happens after G. Wacko leaves office will be interesting to see.


For the Chair:

Tactics are switching from varieties of punk rock to
a) Hippie Music like Hair
b) Heavy Metal -- there is a surprising amount of progressive metal music! :D

Recently the Chair has asked for any evidence of racism in the Art Ministry's work. Your Minister is the product of a racist culture: all white persyns should think of themselves as criminals undergoing thought reform because they and their ancestors profited from systematic racism.

YM doesn't expect anyone to find anti-First Nation racism. YM does invite you all to look.

The fact of spying and penetration makes it important to doublecheck each others work. I've watched most all the IRTR videos and there isn't anything to criticize in terms of content though the form at times is boring. Fluke, Atom Bomb should have been retagged to get more views though Guthrie seems to have gotten around that bit of puritanical idealism.

Your Minister has produced about 600 minutes of footage in total -- over 10 hours. YM has tried to remember what videos directly address First Nation issues or refer to First Nations but this is all I've found so far. Your Minister does not produce hand-drawn art. She makes video montages and photoshops still images. so that may reduce the art to search through. Enjoy searching the art YM doubts anyone will find anything anti-native.

The censored videos on youtube are on google (or vice verse).
KMFDM / Nancy Sinatra "Boots were made for walking".
Yves Montand, Chant du Partisan

Is Chuck Norris a First Nation citizen? Seriously YM doesn't know which actors are or are not -- Johnny Cash for example is a First Nation citizen (though YM hasn't gotten around to JC yet YM got yelped at about how JC was oh-so-evil anarchistic and jesus freak. Yeah, he's gonna get done.

On Art

It's fragile daring and inspiring. It pushes you to question your assumptions and actions. It's fucking dangerous and addictive.
Your Minister's art is visually more appealing than IRTR's as reflected in the number of page views.

MIM has explicitly said that music and film are cutting edge propaganda weapons. Lenin specifically said the weapon of film was the most important in the propaganda armory.

Your Minister continues to produce Art until relieved by the Chair.

For IRTR

Here's your big chance to get me purged. Hit me with your best shots.

Re: WardChurchill.net

Your Minister still uses her email. She wrote to Ward Churchill. Here is a transcript of the correspondance so far. All that follows is quoted verbatim from correspondance.

Mousnonya writes;

"I wish I knew which press made what comment; I don't. It was last February and I never saw it.

MIM is not a structured hierarchical organization anymore. I am not in direct communication with anyone in MIM or MIM led organizations. I've simply got the license to make art and label it Maoist. If it's regressive then I get tossed.

I don't think I did anything reactionary. But when one is in a pigsty it is hard not to think like a pig.

Here is my youtube page:

I missed one or two earlier but I just don't think I said or did anything anti-Native in my work.
