Take a look at this article. Just take a look at the overall tone of the piece, how it makes light of the fact that 8,000 people are threatening to commit MASS SUICIDE while making promises that this will preserve Columbia's need for energy for the next 1,000 years. It's ridiculous.

Norman, CI, DC, any of you clowns want to argue that drilling in this site will settle Columbia's energy question for the next millenia?

sad to see, sad to see. Unfortunately capitalism wouldn't work if people weren't willing to this kind of thing for money.

I have heard of this before. It is a joke. They should take arms and go out with a bang. By killing themselves they will be making clearing off the land even cheaper.

Another example of these so called 'Socialists' or 'Leftists' needlessly launching attacks based on verbal insults for no reason.

Blibblob, read Mazdak again he's saying the complete opposite to your stupid accusation.

Got something against Stalin, then come over to the 'Authoritarians' (worst god dam description ever, read the Soviet Consisitution of 1936) and try to debate there. Ofcourse you won't but atleast I asked.

Sorry to the orginall poster for further disrupting their thread.

If they commit suicide they're the ones losing out. Like Mazdak said, by killing themselves they make clearing off the land even cheaper.

Tssss, Tsss how very sad, on the main issue at hand though i agree with Mazdak the indigenous people should take up arms and resist this attack on their habitat forcefully. 8,000 well motivated guerillas can do a nice amount of damage, especially in the middle of the Colombian countryside.
