In Arizona: Federal Horse Rustlers & the Agenda 21 Hustle

Straight from the Horse's Heart

All Ain’t What it Appears to Be

Grown men wearing hats in the house, AGAIN!

To begin with, the National Association of Conservation Districts (the “mother” of all Conservation Districts) is partnering in a way that promotes IUCN and ICLEI USA, thus pushing Agenda 21, the UN’s action plan that will do away with your private property rights and Constitutional rights.
The Bureau of Land Management’s Wild Horse & Burro Advisory Board meeting (April 2012), was the first meeting including Sec. of Interior Ken Salazar’s new appointee, Callie Hendrickson. Hendrickson has served as an Executive Board member of the National Association of Conservation Districts, and works for the White River and Douglas Creek Conservation District in Colorado.
Several other representatives from state Associations of Conservation Districts were also at this meeting.
They looked like real Americans in their cowboy hats, but the influence they peddled was Agenda 21. Agenda 21 was disguised behind their words about rangeland health and pushing for the removal of, and for the unlimited sale (slaughter) of wild horses.

They were in Reno gambling with your Constitutional rights

The National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD)
Mr. Chris Freeman was at this meeting representing the National Association of Conservation Districts (NACD). NACD is actively partnering with the Forest Service, which is a member of the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN). On the IUCN website, it states: “IUCN links its Mission to the paramount goals of the international community on environment and sustainable development, in particular Agenda 21…”
The objective of Agenda 21 is “communally and collectively owned and managed land.”
Neil Brennan and Gary Moyer, who work with Callie Hendrickson, were at the meeting representing the White River Conservation District in Colorado and pushing for the removal of wild horses. Gary Moyer is also listed as the Colorado Association of Conservation Districts’ representative to the NACD.
NACD publishes a newsletter “Forestry Notes,” funded by the Forest Service that contains stories supporting things like the Sustainable Urban Forestry Coalition, whose membership includes The Nature Conservancy and the International City/County Management Association. I’m all for more trees in cities, but let’s take a closer look at this.
The Nature Conservancy
The Nature Conservancy (TNC), is also a member of IUCN and participates in and promotes many UN programs, which ALL promote Agenda 21. TNC is a “non-profit” that pulled in over $925 million in just one year (2010 tax form). Their contractors include Tetra Tech, the huge environmental company that prepares Resource Management Plans and Environmental Assessments for the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The public is led to believe that The Nature Conservancy buys land with private money and sets up nature reserves to help the environment.
But Tom DeWeese describes the reality: “The Nature Conservancy buys private land from owners (usually at drastically reduced, land-grab prices) who think it will remain in private hands and then sells it to the government! In fact, TNC has sold more than 9 million acres to the government at a nice profit.”
“The Nature Conservancy frequently uses phony front companies to get land” and it purchased “most of the islands off the coast of Virginia, containing 40,000 acres and sixty miles of coastline. In doing so, The Nature Conservancy was able to stop all private development and control the use of the land, damaging the tax base, killing thousands of jobs, and severely curbing the locals from hunting, fishing, camping and joy riding on the islands.
Don’t think the purpose was to preserve these beautiful, pristine islands for nature. The Nature Conservancy did bar others from developing the land, but not itself. Far from it, at a huge profit, the Conservancy developed upscale homes for the rich.”
Lee Pitts wrote in Agri-News: “TNC is involved in oil production and receives oil royalties.” “It hides behind phony corporations; serves as a shill for government agencies; and works behind the scenes with more visible environmental groups to intimidate property owners into selling. Its power, wealth, and control is almost beyond comprehension.”
Range Magazine published an article about The Nature Conservancy in 2003, and pointed out that TNC was “capable of manipulating governments, including that of the United States, endowed with assets amounting to nearly $3 billon…It would be directly in control of some 90 million acres worldwide, with more than 12 million acres…in the United States.”
The International City/County Management Association
The International City/County Management Association (ICMA) partners with and works “in concert” with ICLEI. It is also called Local Governments for Sustainability and was established at the U.N. It’s an international association of local governments pushing U.N.’s Agenda 21 (also called Local 21) into many U.S. local governments. ICLEI will put more power and control in the hands of regional, non-elected boards. (Not city, county or state government, where you have a voice and a vote.) This is based on Regionalism.
ICMA is partnering with ICLEI and the Dept. of Energy to promote solar technologies. (You’d think that if the BLM were concerned with rangeland health, that they’d be concerned with the billions of gallons of water solar energy will use.)
The Dept. of Energy, along with the EPA and State Department, actually FUND ICLEI USA with your tax dollars.
The Forest Service also seems to be marching in lockstep to support ICLEI USA.
Was the deck stacked in Reno?
At the Reno meeting, Hugh Sanburg of the Colorado Farm Bureau commended Sec. Salazar for his appointment of Callie Hendrickson, and stated that Colorado Farm Bureau supported her. Is the Colorado Farm Bureau going to support IUCN, ICLEI and Agenda 21?
John Falen of the Public Lands Council was also at the Reno meeting. This Council claims to “promote the great American tradition of freedom,” but yet John Falen (along with Callie Hendrickson) participates in pro horse slaughter Summit of the Horse events, organized by United Horsemen and International Equine Business Association, which are “partnering” with RFID companies that are “partnering” with international RFID companies that comply with international law.
Everell Hayes, a longtime BLM employee, was representing the Public Lands Foundation at the Reno meeting. The Public Land Foundation’s members include past and present employees of the Bureau of Land Management, and its President is Henri Bisson, who was the BLM’s Deputy Director of Operations.
NACD (National Association of Conservation Districts) encourages their state associations to sign Memorandums of Understanding (MOUs) with the BLM, and even has a sample on their website. They agree to promote mutual interests. It seemed like a stacked deck at this meeting for not only an agenda to remove and slaughter wild horses, but to deal in Agenda 21.
At NACD’s national meeting in Las Vegas a couple of months ago, members of state Conservation Districts took a wild horse tour with Southern Nevada Conservation District. (Clark County, along with the cities of Las Vegas and Henderson, are members of ICLEI.)
