Amy Goodman recently visited the Grand Bayou, a village of the Atakapa-Ishak that is only accessible by boat. Here is the face of the enemy, BP CEO Tony Hayward.
This is an act of genocide. You may be saying that one has to prove intent when accusing such wealthy anus' of genocide. The intent is that alleged civilization is willing to sacrifice the indigenous and many others for the wealth of the few.
You now may be thinking "why don't you think of the millionaires and and billionaires? What about the maintenance of their lifestyles; the hundreds of dollars bottles of wine and cognac, etc.?
Many of you may be thinking, "what about me? I want to continue my lifestyle! I want to continue driving my car, eating cheap food, etc. I'm willing to sacrifice indigenous communities and whoever else gets in the way to continue MY lifestyle. Why don't you think of ME, Eugene?"
Why don't you think of somebody besides yourself? Why don't you think about stopping the destruction of the world? Why don't you think about the future of the earth?
Here is another example of modern day genocide, jellyfish babies.
These are caused by nuclear fallout and are prominent in the Atolls in the South Pacific.
You can read about some of the specifics in the book, "Body of Secrets," by James Bamford. One group of indigenous from the area have decided on their deliberate extinction because all of their children are being born like this because of the U.S. led nuclear testing in the area.
"Eugene! Will you think of me? What about my safety? I need those nuclear weapons to keep myself safe, and thus it is OK that whole indigenous nations are wiped from the face of the earth. Think about me for a change, Eugene! Think about me!"
I don't apologize for being a negative Nugie. These are just things you have to look at as part of the whole. These are the people being sacrificed for you. Human sacrifice has not ended, it just has a new face, such as the face of the baby to the left, here. What there is of it, anyway.
