Judge says yes to drilling on uncontacted tribes' land

A Peruvian judge has ruled that two European oil companies can explore in a remote part of the Peruvian Amazon inhabited by uncontacted Indians.

Both companies have signed contracts to work in the northern Peruvian Amazon, near the border with Ecuador. At least two uncontacted tribes live in the area.

1. This is unbelievable. Long ago, these people started streaming across the border into Brazil to

ESCAPE confrontation from these assholes.

The Peruvian government is perfectly aware of the overwhelming danger involved in destroying these people's ONLY known home. They should NOT be forced to leave their homes, under any circumstances, and hide elsewhere, facing god only knows what new threats, just to live from day to day.

That level of destruction shouldn't be allowed to any group, anywhere. These people have harmed no one.

I hope the dirty judge will burn in hell, and the dirty Garcia administration he serves. He is NOT serving in the interests of his fellow man/woman, only fellow scums.
