: We should not hesitate to discuss differences among movement groups on issues, but when we are under fire from the enemy or going on the offensive we must put these differences aside and fight like One Big Union. This is how Custer was hunted down and destroyed at Little Big Horn. Over 6,000 warriors representing nearly a dozen nations came together and fought as one, following the Lakota who took the lead as the war was in their territory. They simply decided to have a traditional gathering and, when the enemy attacked as he inevitably would, to throw it back in his face. With unity for the duration of the event, they smashed the 7th Cav and inflicted a humiliating defeat on the colonizers that wouldn't be matched until Vietnam.
: We must think like the bands that came together at Little Big Horn to do battle with the great enemy. We all are from our own nations, but we must not allow our natural differences to break our "One Big Union." I am happy to work with ALL pro-working class, pro Third World, Pro Native,pro animal, and pro freedom activists to break the back of corporate and State power. See you all on April 16th!

And here I thought it was because Custer was out for personal glory, thereby attacking a superior force without carrying out proper recon, waiting for help, etc.

Oh, yes, and guess who won the subsequent battles.
