Geronimo. Cochise. Starea taurului. Nor roșu. Cal nebun. Șef Iosif. Dintre marii șefi și războinici nativi americani, care reprezentau vitejie, leadership, forță și îndemânare militară, șeful Iosif era cunoscut pentru inima sa.

La 5 octombrie 1877, discursul său, în timp ce se predea generalului Howard, l-a imortalizat în istoria americană pentru totdeauna: 

"M-am săturat să mă lupt. Șefii noștri sunt uciși. Uitarea sticlei este moartă. Toohoolhoolzote este mort. Bătrânii sunt morți. Tinerii sunt cei care spun, 'da' sau 'Nu.' Cel care i-a condus pe tinerii [Olikut] este mort. Este frig și nu avem pături. Copiii mici îngheață până la moarte. Oamenii mei, unii dintre ei, au fugit pe dealuri și nu au pături, nici mâncare. Nimeni nu știe unde se află & # x2014; poate înghețat până la moarte. Vreau să am timp să îmi caut copiii, și să văd câți dintre ei pot găsi. Poate îi voi găsi printre morți. Ascultă-mă, șefii mei! Sunt obosit. Inima mea este bolnavă și tristă. De unde stă soarele acum nu voi mai lupta pentru totdeauna ”.

Șeful Iosif nu a ajuns niciodată să se întoarcă în patrie, așa cum i s-a promis. Totuși, în ciuda faptului că tribul său a murit de boală și la mâinile omului alb, nu a renunțat niciodată să fie conștiința poporului său. Nu a renunțat niciodată la speranța că într-o bună zi, americanii autohtoni vor obține libertatea și egalitatea. 

În 1904, șeful Iosif a murit, potrivit medicului său, de o inimă frântă.

    Lorsque j'ai entendu parler pour la premiere fois de <a href="https://uniteto.live/">UTLH</a>, j'etais prudent. Mais apres avoir etudie le projet, j'ai compris que ce n'est pas simplement un token comme les autres, c'est un veritable systeme bien pense avec de bonnes perspectives. J'ai investi dans le staking, car un rendement fixe de 24% par an, c'est bien mieux que les depots bancaires. Cela fait plusieurs mois que je recois des paiements, tout fonctionne parfaitement. De plus, le token commence a prendre de la valeur, et son emission limitee cree une rarete. Je pense que le conserver a long terme est une excellente decision.

    Carrie Underwood slated to perform at Trump’s inauguration <a href=https://kra27-28.cc>kraken тор</a> Country music star Carrie Underwood is slated to perform “America the Beautiful” at President-elect Donald Trump’s inauguration, according to a copy of the program obtained by CNN and confirmed by a spokesperson for the inaugural committee. “I love our country and am honored to have been asked to sing at the Inauguration and to be a small part of this historic event,” Underwood said in a statement to CNN. “I am humbled to answer the call at a time when we must all come together in the spirit of unity and looking to the future.” The presidential oath of office will be administered by Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts with Justice Brett Kavanaugh expected to administer the oath of office to Vice President-elect JD Vance. Trump’s inauguration as the 47th president of the United States will take place on January 20 at the US Capitol. Underwood is a big get for Trump’s inauguration, considering Hollywood’s Trump blackout over the course of his political career. In his first term and throughout the past three elections, Trump has struggled to garner support from major Hollywood stars. At the Republican National Convention last year, the two biggest stars onstage with Trump were musician Kid Rock and retired WWE wrestler Hulk Hogan – a far cry from a superstar at the height of their career, like Underwood. The Grammy-winning artist is as high-profile as you can get in country music, not only with numerous platinum hits, but also with public-facing, mainstream business associations. Underwood is the face of Sunday Night Football and is set to make her debut this March as a judge on ABC’s “American Idol” – the singing competition show that catapulted her to fame when she won in 2005. While many NFL fans will likely applaud Underwood for singing at the inauguration, any time a celebrity aligns themselves with Trump, they run the risk of alienating left-leaning fans and Hollywood allies. Underwood has kept her politics under wraps over the course of her career. In her statement, she did not mention Trump by name and kept her focus on unifying the country – still, Underwood’s decision to publicly align with Trump is a big statement for any star, particularly one as private as the singer. Historically, Hollywood has always been closely associated with the Democratic Party, but country stars have always been an outlier, leaning more conservative. In recent years, as new singers join the genre, country music has gotten to be more progressive. This past election cycle, country stars like Mickey Guyton and Maren Morris stood with Vice President Kamala Harris.

    Tbilisi, Georgia — Jailed journalist Mzia Amaghlobeli gets weaker every day as her hunger strike has reached three weeks in Rustavi, a town near the Georgian capital of Tbilisi, her lawyer says. Now the 49-year-old is having difficulty walking the short distance from her cell to the room where they usually meet, and human rights officials, colleagues and family fear for her life. <a href=https://kra-26.at>kra25.cc</a> Amaghlobeli was arrested Jan. 12 during an anti-government protest in the coastal city of Batumi, one of over 40 people in custody on criminal charges from a series of demonstrations that have hit the South Caucasus nation of 3.7 million in recent months. <a href=https://24krn.com>kra30 cc</a> The political turmoil follows a parliamentary election that was won by the ruling Georgian Dream party, although its opponents allege the vote was rigged. Protests highlight battle over Georgia's future. Here's why it matters. Its outcome pushed Georgia further into Russia's orbit of influence. Georgia aspired to join the European Union, but the party suspended accession talks with the bloc after the election. As it sought to cement its grip on power, Georgian Dream has cracked down on freedom of assembly and expression in what the opposition says is similar to President Vladimir Putin's actions in neighboring Russia, its former imperial ruler. kra27.cc https://kra22at.cc

    Thieves blow up museum door and steal ancient artifacts, including 2,500-year-old gold helmet <a href=https://chelny-izvest.ru/news/criminal/po-delu-piramidy-layf-iz-gud-vozbuzhdeno-13-ugolovnykh-del-po-otmyvaniyu-deneg>гей порно большой</a> Thieves have stolen four ancient artifacts, including an approximately 2,500-year-old gold helmet, after using explosives to break into a museum in the Netherlands. The daring heist took place at Drents Museum in Assen during the early hours of Saturday morning, according to Dutch police, who said they received a report of an explosion at 3:45 a.m. local time. CCTV footage released by police shows the suspects opening an exterior door before a blast sends sparks and smoke into the air. The thieves made off with three gold bracelets, dating from around 50 BC, as well as the 5th-century BC Helmet of Cotofenesti, a historically important artifact on loan from the National History Museum of Romania in Bucharest. The items were part of an exhibition about the Dacians, an ancient society that occupied much of present-day Romania before being conquered by the Romans. On show since July, “Dacia: Empire of Gold and Silver” featured treasures borrowed from institutions across Romania. In a press release on its website, Drents Museum described the Helmet of Cotofenesti — which was discovered in a Romanian village almost a century ago — as a “masterpiece.” Its design features mythological scenes and a pair of eyes, located above the wearers’, that were thought to deter enemies during battle while protecting against the “evil eye.” The exhibition was set to conclude Sunday, though Drents Museum remained closed through the weekend due to the robbery. Its premises were damaged by the explosion, though no injuries were reported, the museum said. Dutch police announced that they are working with global police agency Interpol and had, as of Sunday, received more than 50 tip-offs. Investigators are currently looking for information about a gray car that was stolen from the nearby city of Alkmaar earlier in the week and was discovered around four miles from the crime scene, on fire, shortly after the overnight heist.
