The American History They Do Not Teach

by Bill Russo

In 1620 the peaceful land of America was invaded by a ruthless band of interlopers led by a mercenary killer named Captain Stan Dish. The ruthless gunman quickly displayed his brutal nature shortly after the invaders arrived when he led unprovoked murderous attacks on two American Villages, Nemasket and Wessagusset. For his actions, the invaders elected him Commander of their military group.

Settling in an area now called Plymouth, the refugees from England soon found they were ill equipped to survive an American winter. In England in January, they were more likely to see a rainstorm than the snow that threatened them with starvation in their first winter.

Luckily for them, the greatest leader of the Americans, Massasoit, took pity and freely gave them food and survival skills.

Largely due to the grace of the fearless Wampanoag leader, the English refugees survived and multiplied as the years went on. By the time Massasoit died at the ripe old age of 80, in 1661, the refugees had lived mostly peacefully and harmoniously with the Americans for 41 years in what they called ‘The New World’.

The true nature of the immigrants came boiling to the surface. They forgot what Massasoit had taught them when he said: "What is this you call property? It cannot be the earth, for the land is our mother, nourishing all her children, beasts, birds, fish and all men. The woods, the streams, everything on it belongs to everybody and is for the use of all. How can one man say it belongs only to him?"

Shortly after the last spade of earth was shoveled onto the grave of The Great Chief, in what is now called Warren, Rhode Island, trouble began.

The invaders commenced raiding villages and murdering American citizens, and by 1676 a full-scale war on the Americans was declared. Outnumbered and outgunned, the Americans were nearly exterminated in the slaughter. Most of those who did not die were sold off as slaves!

And so it was, shortly afterwards, that America died, and “a new nation was brought forth, conceived in violence and dedicated to the proposition that Americans must perish, if this new nation is to stand. A brand-new nation now stands on the ruins of America – a nation called "New England”.

Some 100 years later, when the memory of Massasoit and his good deeds had faded, the country was re-named, The United States of America.
