There seems to be a greater symbolism held by some elites about Geronimo.

It has long been rumoured that the Yale Skull & Bones have possession of Geronimo's bones, used in some of their rituals.

Perhaps, symbolically, if the bones were to be returned to the Apache Nation, it would signal a major defeat for the S&B faction ?

i just wonder whos runn8ng this site?

, Apache people stood in awe of Geronimo's "powers" which he demonstrated to them on a series of occasions. These powers indicated to other Apaches that Geronimo had super-natural gifts that he could use for good or ill. In eyewitness accounts by other Apaches, Geronimo was able to become aware of distant events as they happened,[14] and he was able to anticipate events that were in the future**.[15] He also demonstrated powers to heal other Apaches

Geronimo’s followers credited him with supernatural powers.

While he often exerted considerable influence over the Apaches, Geronimo was never a tribal chief. Among the Chiricahua, he was better known for his skills as a shaman, or medicine man. Those who followed Geronimo credited him with a variety of supernatural powers including the ability to heal the sick, slow time, avoid bullets, bring on rainstorms and even witness events over great distances. In one incident described by Apache Jason Betzinez, a few warriors were sitting around a campfire during a raiding expedition when Geronimo suddenly had a premonition that U.S. troops had attacked their base camp. After arriving at the site several days later, they found that Geronimo’s vision had been correct—the Americans had already captured the encampment. “I cannot explain it to this day,” Betzinez later wrote, “but I was there and I saw

raiding had become embedded in the Apache way of life, used not only for strategic purposes but also as an economic enterprise,[9] and often there was overlap between raids for economic need and warfare.[10] Raids ranged from stealing livestock and other plunder, to the capture and/or killing of victims, sometimes by torture

I thought it was a good post. I can attest to the slow time part when playing raquet ball with my buds as a kid. I played all sports, and accelled in all of them, but when my friends dad took us to play racquetball, it all changed. He was fat and slow, but the economy of his will made fools of two of us against one. I literally saw the back wall of the racquetball court morph time and go into slo motion. Several times, it was the only way I could react so quickly , I know a direct contrast, to react to the ball. It literally changed my life. So this stuff does happen and is real.
