Inuit survival battle against US base

A remote Inuit community of hunters in Greenland has taken a case to the European Court of Human Rights to fight for its "survival". For the past 50 years, one of the smallest indigenous groups in the world has fought to regain its land from the US military, who set up a base there under agreement with the Danish government.

The Inuit were forced to move when the base expanded
For the US, it is a strategically important Arctic base which is considered an essential part of Washington's controversial "Star Wars" missile defence programme.

For the Inuit, it is a matter of reclaiming their natural environment or facing extinction, their lawyer says.

"These people, who are the last surviving group of polar Eskimos - or Iunghuits - have rights to this land; their survival is connected to their return," said Christian Harlang, a Copenhagen-based human rights lawyer who is representing the hunters and their families.

Part of the missile defense program I think. Angels don't play this haarp.
