Splitting the Sky Versus George W. Bush Trial Conclusion with Professor Anthony J. Hall, author of The American Empire and the Fourth World- The Bowl With One Spoon, professor of Globalization Studies at the University of Lethbridge. Splitting the Sky, also known as Dacajeweiah and John Boncore, a Mohawk, a principal leader of the Attica rebellion, a leader within the American Indian Movement with the League of Indigenous Sovereign Nations, in particular at Gustafen Lake BC, author of The Autobiography of Dacajeweiah, Splitting the Sky, From Attica Lake to Gustafsen Lake is also a 9/11 Truth researcher, advocate and speaker; he began the show a bit tired from an all night drive, and described what shaped his life and decision to take action. On March 8, 2010, Splitting the Sky stood trial for his action last year when he attempted a citizen's arrest of former President George W. Bush, who was scheduled to give a talk in Calgary, Canada. Lawyers Against the War stated prior to the visit that Bush should be either barred or detained for condoning the use of torture at overseas jails. The lawyers stated that Bush should be arrested and tried for war crimes and crimes against humanity. Splitting the Sky was brutally arrested for his action. Splitting the Sky 's trial ended on the second day, when Cynthia McKinney arrived to testify on his behalf.

On June 7, 2010, Splitting the Sky was sentenced in Calgary. Former U.S. Attorney General Ramsey Clark had flown to Calgary to speak on behalf of Splitting the Sky. On April 3, at a meeting of over 150 lawyers, legal scholars and human rights campaigners, Ramsey Clark, founder of Indict Bush Now, was chosen to be the chairperson of an international campaign to investigate war crimes committed by officials from the Bush administration. Representatives at the meeting held in Beirut, Lebanon, came from all over the world. The campaign will investigate the lies, deceit and manipulation leading up to the Iraq war; the conduct of the war itself against an essentially defenseless country; and the horrors of the continued occupation.
