THey tell you its the democrats or liberals but it is all a smoke screen. THe planet is running out of resources
THe bottom line is in all countries where there is war there are also indigenous people's that clash with globalization and western governments are distiquishing these peoples. Either by fueling the wars or ignoring the conflicts all together. Just like we did to the native peoples in the USA and everyone is fooled into thinking it is some other conflict so nothing is done about it.
I can go country by country for you if you like.
West Africa: Niger Delta peoples' struggles against the Nigerian and state governments and foreign companies, including Shell and ExxonMobil, have resulted in considerable bloodshed over the past decade. In June, local communities assailed the World Bank's International Finance Corporation for approving loans to local commercial banks that would then lend the money to Shell contractors. Shell is being sued in U.S. courts for alleged complicity with the military government in the 1995 arrest, trial, and execution of nine activists from the Ogoni community. Even under the elected government of President Olesegun Obasanjo, the region has remained under virtual occupation. In 1999, Nigerian security forces razed an Ijaw community of 15,000 (Odi) killing dozens of unarmed citizens. Oil revenues and their regional distribution remain a source of great contention in the broader national conflict among the country's three largest ethnic groups, the Hausa-Fulani in the North, the Yoruba of the West, and the Igbo in the South. Washington has provided training and equipment for Nigerian troops since Obasanjo took over.
And yes, companies defend their interests/investments just like people do. Who would have thought that the people who run them big bad evil corporations would let human emotion enter into their judgments on business matters. Bad, bad people.Ozarks Reviewed by Ozarks on . Genocide (mods if this is in the wrong forum, sorry. Thought I would save you the trouble of moving it :) ) Why don't we take action on genocide that is happening around the world? Why let people die a needless death? Instead we turn a blinded eye on these people. Some of you want to give Iran an "eye for an eye" if they nuke Israel, but we would be no better then these people in the end.
