It is hard to base my own opinion off a website with an organization so personally involved with the case Source #3) International Leonard Peltier Defense Committee "Who is Leonard Peltier?" International Leonard Peltier Defense Committee. 2008. Web. 31 Jan. 2017. Link: http://www.whoisleonardpeltier.info Summary of source: This source includes everything from background of the beginning, AIM, Wounded Knee to facts about the shootout, extradition, or any of the trials. This website also includes a support group, donation tab, and Peltier’s prison P.O. box. Evaluation: The central claim of this source is to free Peltier for he is innocent.

    1. As I reflect on the past twelve years of Marine Corps service, I feel a sense of pride and am immensely proud of what I have been able to accomplish.
