"" While the country is focused on the
standoff between a Nevada rancher
whose family has been grazing cattle
on state land since the 1880s and the
federal government who said it needs
to protect the desert tortoise, a new
revelation suggests that Senate
Majority Leader Harry Reid (D- Nev.)
wants the land to install solar power
stations.
Cliven Bundy’s family has been grazing
cattle in Nevada since the 1880s.
However, in recent years the federal
government, which owns 86 percent of
the land in Nevada, has fought Bundy
over use of the land. In 1993, the
federal government declared a large
portion of the Gold Butte area, near the
Utah border, off limits because of the
protected desert tortoise.
In the
years
following the designation the
government has now taken to
euthanizing some of the turtles
because they are now so prevalent.
Last weekend the Bureau of Land
Management obtained a court order to
begin rounding up Bundy’s cattle. The
BLM says that Bundy has not paid his
grazing fees to them and owes the BLM
over $1 million. Bundy has claimed
that he has paid his grazing fees to the
county and the state, which own the
land.
The situation is rapidly spiraling out of
control with reports of snipers setting
up near the Bundy ranch as well as
multiple armed BLM agents being
present on site.
The BLM and park rangers have also
engaged in violent confrontations with
family members and protestors.
Ammon Bundy said he was tased three
different times while a 62 year old
woman was tossed to the ground.
With hundreds of armed BLM agents on
site, including reports of some from
outside the state, some have begun to
wonder exactly why the government
appears to be engaged in what seems
overkill for on man and his cattle.
Infowars.com noted that a now deleted
posting from the BLM.gov website may
reveal a far different reason for its
action against Bundy than what it is
currently claiming. The document,
which has since been posted on Free
Republic, is titled “Cattle Trespass
Impacts,” and directly states that
Bundy’s cattle “impacts” the
development of solar energy on the
land. The report specifically referred to
the construction of “utility-scale solar
generation facilities” on “public lands.”
“Non-Governmental Organizations have
expressed concern that the regional
mitigation strategy for the Dry Lake
Solar Energy Zone utilizes Gold Butte
as the location for offsite mitigation for
impacts from solar development, and
that those restoration activities are not
durable with the presence of trespass
cattle,” the document states.
In a section of another BLM report
titled “Bundy’s Trespass Cattle,” it
reveals that the land in question where
Bundy is grazing is within the “Dry
Lake Solar Energy Zone and
surrounding area.”
Infowars noted that in 2012, the New
American reported that Reid’s son Rory
Reid was the chief representative for a
Chinese energy firm that had plans to
build a $5 billion solar plant on public
land in Laughlin, Nevada. Rory’s
involvement with the deal was
confirmed by Reuters.
The situation has the potential to
develop into a deadly confrontation
similar to what happened at Waco or
Ruby Ridge where an unarmed woman
was killed while holding a newborn
infant in her arms.
However, since those incidents
alternative media outlets have cropped
up which has helped shine a spotlight
on what is happening making it more
difficult for officials wishing to engage
in a similar type of attack.
Additionally, there are multiple reports
of militia groups heading to the region
to help defend the Bundy’s.""
