Etnocidio en “La selva más hermosa del mundo”

COMUNIDADES INDÍGENAS en la zona COLONIZADA del TIPNIS… No hace falta leer en la historia la crueldad de la colonización.

En pleno siglo XXI, observamos el
ETNOCIDIO cruelmente socapado
por autoridades del Gobierno.

¿Qué consecuencias tuvo la
colonización cocalera en el TIPNIS?
Adolfo Moye: Hemos visto que muchas comunidades terminaron rodeadas por colonos, como por ejemplo la comunidad de Santísima Trinidad donde yo vivo junto a 140 familias indígenas mezcladas con algunos colonos; hemos quedado al centro de la zona colonizada y rodeados por cocaleros. En la comunidad de Limo los hermanos del pueblo moxeño yuracaré ahora tienen apenas una hectárea y trabajan como empleados de los colonos. Sus hijos han tenido que migrar a las ciudades capitales para buscar empleo queriendo adoptar otra forma de vida; en muchos pueblos sólo quedan los viejitos. Algunas comunidades como Puerto Patiño e Isiborito se extinguieron y no sabemos a dónde se fueron esos hermanos.

Derechos Humanos pide respetar la marcha indígena y convoca a la pacificación..Fuente: Erbol, Tarija

La presidenta de la Asamblea Permanente de los Derechos Humanos de Bolivia (APDHB), Yolanda Herrera, demandó a los habitantes de San Ignacio de Moxos del departamento de Beni y otras poblaciones del país a respetar la marcha de los indígenas que se oponen a la construcción de la carretera por el parque nacional.

La marcha de más de un millar de indígenas de 34 pueblos indígenas del oriente boliviano, respaldado por el consejo Nacional de Markas y Ayllus del Qullasuyu y otras, recorrió al menos 90 kilómetros desde la ciudad de Trinidad hasta el municipio de San Ignacio de Moxos, donde algunos grupos adversarios anunciaron bloquearlos.

“Les pido que respetemos la demanda y la expresión de los hermanos y hermanas de los pueblos indígenas de tierras bajas que están realizando la marcha (en defensa del Territorio Indígena Parque Nacional Isiboro Sécure) porque la violencia sólo genera la violencia y empobrece a nuestro país”, afirmó.

La representante nacional de los Derechos Humanos, en declaraciones a radio Aclo Tarija de Erbol, argumentó que la marcha del pueblo indígena integrada por los niños, mujeres, varones y ancianos se manifiestan pacíficamente ante Bolivia sus demandas del respeto a su forma de vida, costumbres y su territorio.

Sin embargo, reiteró la convocatoria al presidente del Estado, Evo Morales, para que vaya hasta la marcha y establezca el diálogo porque son escenarios favorables para solucionar este conflicto sino más adelante podría haber otros escenarios por las circunstancias sociales que van generándose.

Campaña en Defensa del TIPNIS

Denunciamos ante Bolivia y el Mundo que el gobierno boliviano está transgrediendo la Constitución Política del Estado, el Convenio 69 de la OIT, la Ley del Medio Ambiente, el Reglamento de Áreas Protegidas y otras leyes bolivianas y compromisos internacionales y pretende construir de una manera ILEGAL COMPROBADA una carretera sobre el TIPNIS lo cual ocasionaría la mayor destrucción ecológica en la historia de Bolivia. Esto ocasionaría un ATENTADO a la vida y cultura de los pueblos moxeños, yurakarés y chimanés que habitan en él. Asimismo, se condenaría a la EXTINCIÓN de fauna y flora ÚNICAS en el mundo. Por otra parte, se afectaría de una manera irreparable la naciente de ríos fundamentales, lagos y belleza escénica. Solicitamos al presidente Evo Morales que sea consecuente con su discurso en defensa de la Madre Tierra.

¿Acaso este es el aporte de Evo Morales a la destrucción de la Amazonía boliviana?

Brasil mani’s em defesa da Amazônia

On sat 20th Aug a massive demo took place against the ongoing Amazon destruction for the Belo Monte dam. Also against the new Forest Law, now in the Senate, which ‘relaxes’ the already unenforced deforestation code. Brazil had been a constructive leader in Climate talks, which came to nothing due to the greedy demands of the West.

Milhares de ativistas protestam contra Usina de Belo Monte

“A represa de Belo Monte significa a última punhalada no coração da Amazônia”, declarou em Belém o presidente do Conselho Indigenista Missionário, Erwin Krautler, que é também bispo prelado do Xingu, região onde as obras inundarão 516 quilômetros quadrados de floresta e que, segundo os povos ribeirinhos, vai obrigar a remoção das famílias de cerca de 50.000 pessoas. Além de Belém, onde 2.000 pessoas se mobilizaram, e São Paulo, houve manifestações similares em Brasília, Rio de Janeiro, Fortaleza, João Pessoa, Recife, Salvador, Santarém, Florianópolis, Cuiabá, Manaus e Belo Horizonte. Enquanto você lê isso, centenas de escavadeiras agem ilegalmente na Amazônia, dando início a um dos mais avassaladores e irreversíveis crimes ambientais de nossa história, a construção da hidrelétrica de Belo Monte, que vai acabar com o Parque Nacional do Xingu. No mesmo instante, as emendas feitas no Código Florestal Brasileiro, propostas pelo deputado Aldo Rebelo (PC do B), já foram aprovadas pela Câmara e aguardam apenas a votação no Senado para permitirem aos grandes latifundiários do Agronegócio desmatarem à vontade nossas florestas, sob a desculpa da “necessidade de produção alimentícia”.

Além de protestar contra o Código Florestal, os manifestantes querem manter o diálogo com a sociedade que, pare eles, está mal informada em relação ao projeto. “O novo Código Florestal nos faz ver que esse é um dos maiores escândalos governamentais desde a guerra do Iraque. Isso se não for mais. E a população precisa saber disso, uma vez que essa aprovação irá alterar suas vidas no futuro”, acrescenta Leandro.

McDonalds behind Amazon slaughter

murdered — José and Maria:killed for defending Amazon.

The greedy corrupt Brazilian politicians are voting to give free rein to their fascist landlord colleagues and the McDonalds backed Ranching industry to destroy the Amazon Rainforest.

The politicians appeal to nationalist sentiment.. saying we have already destroyed our forests and they have every right.

But 79% of Brazilians are AGAINST the new laws going through.

I blame McDonalds, leading the insane MEAT FRENZY of North American capitalism. A series of major reports including Greenpeace’s ‘Slaughtering The Amazon’ have shown the cheap beef industry to be behind the rapidly increasing destruction of the billion year old Amazon rainforest, which may be the starting gun for catastrophic climate change and global destruction.

The news of the killing of José Ribeiro and his wife came on the same day the Brazilian congress debated a controvers

McD slaughter — the root of Amazon slaughter is Meat Frenzy

ial set of new laws called “Forest Code” which, according to environmentalists, would be harmful to the Amazon, reducing the amount of land preserved from clear cutting.

In a video interview posted on YouTube last November, Ribeiro looks off camera and says to the interviewer: “I have received death threats by businessmen who work with loggers, who don’t want the forest standing.”

After selling the hardwood and obliterating the ecosystems the land quickly degrades but can support low quality cattle for some years. The trade is fuelled by the billion dollar advertising budget of McDonalds Corporation, and others. With suitable chemical taste additives ever increasing quantities are being sold to already obese North Americans, duped into seeing it as a happy party treat or a virility symbol.

Blaming the fascistic landlord class of Brazil is correct, for their infinite crimes against nature and humanity.

But in the case of José and Maria, due to the driving force of the beef industry, we can trace the culprit straight back to Ronald McDonald!

Fukushima cancers ‘to go on forever’

“Radioactive elements get into the testicles and ovaries, and these cause genetic disease like diabetes, cystic fibrosis, and mental retardation,” she told Al Jazeera. “There are 2,600 of these diseases that get into our genes and are passed from generation to generation, forever.” Dr Helen Caldicott (Nobel winner)

Japan2 — radiation crisis 'only beginning'

Caldicott feels the lack of a stronger response to safeguard the health of people in areas where radiation is found is “reprehensible”.

“Millions of people need to be evacuated from those high radiation zones, especially the children.”

Dr Yanagisawa is concerned about what she calls “late onset disorders” from radiation exposure resulting from the Fukushima disaster, as well as increasing cases of infertility and miscarriages.

“Incidence of cancer will undoubtedly increase,” she said. “In the case of children, thyroid cancer and leukemia can start to appear after several years. In the case of adults, the incidence of various types of cancer will increase over the course of several decades.”…..

..Junichi Sato, Greenpeace Japan Executive Director, said: “It is utterly outrageous to raise the exposure levels for children to twenty times the maximum limit for adults.” “The Japanese government cannot simply increase safety limits for the sake of political convenience or to give the impression of normality.”…

…When on August 2nd readings of 10,000 millisieverts (10 sieverts) of radioactivity per hour were detected at the plant, Japan’s science ministry said that level of dose is fatal to humans, and is enough radiation to kill a person within one to two weeks after the exposure.

10,000 millisieverts (mSv) is the equivalent of approximately 100,000 chest x-rays…..

“The situation at the Daiichi Nuclear facility in Fukushima has not yet been fully stabilised, and we can’t yet see an end in sight,” Yanagisawa said. “Because the nuclear material has not yet been encapsulated, radiation continues to stream into the environment.”
