Violent Evictions at El Estor, Guatemala



Enviado por: siggurdsson
Descripción del video:
From Rights Action (http://www.rightsaction.org/video/elestor/): On January 8th and 9th 2007, hundreds of police and soldiers in Guatemala forcibly evicted the inhabitants of several communities who were living on lands that a Guatemalan military government had granted to Canadian mining company INCO in 1965. Local indigenous people claim the land to be theirs, and resent the exploitation of a foreign corporation. Canada's Skye Resources now lays claim to the land, and paid workers a nominal sum to destroy people's homes. With the force of the army and police, company workers took chainsaws and torches to people's homes, while women and children stood by. Skye Resources claims that they maintained "a peaceful atmosphere during this action."

When slavery was in practice, slaves prayed and prayed and no supernatural powers happened. They had to wait decades to be free from it until man decided to abolish it.
The same thing is happening here. The one with the more money has the power.

invizible69= What solution do you propose then? This is the same problem that why europeans run to the new discovered america in the 1500's. Now in 2008 we still are facing the same problem in many parts of the world and guatemala. Believe. If you come and give a peace of land to this people the first thing they are going to do is sell it and invade somewhere else. NOT ALL OF THE BUT MOST OF THEM. This is a way of life to them. for real.

how very sad and disheartening. If they have to do something so horrific, then what are they doing to help these people?
So sad it brought me to tears. What is sadder still is to know this happened only a year ago and that terrible things like this are still happening.
It also touches me because my sponsored child lives in Guatemala. It saddens me and touches my heart.
I hope the lady in pink succeeds in her intentions!
Shame on the people who did the evictions.

The Guatemalan gvnm't is the real culprit for allowing other countries to come in take their resources for a quick $. That is why Guatemala will never thrive! They have sold their souls for yrs! At the end of the day the Guatemalan gvn't is shooting itself in the foot.
El gobierno Guatemalteco es el mas culpable de todos. Se vende y ni el mismo gobierno beneficia por que se la pase vendiendo el alma al diablo! Por eso Guatemala nunca podra triunfar. Que desgracia!
