Tribe vows to fight mine with axes and arrows

Power to the people!

Good. Stop those bullies. I hope there is no bloodshed though. Use your words!

good post, done and done, wish I could do more

This shit is really fucked up. I hope Dongrias don't have to end up fighting the British. But if they end up doing so in the future I give them my prayers. These fucking people think they can take land from a tribe of people, and it's their sacred mountain. Just shows how much of a fucked up world we live where our own people turn on us and prostitute our natural resources our goods to companies. FUCK EM'!!!

I hope the company reconsiders and the Indian government stands up for its own. Here's a bit of mission statement from the company website:

"The company aims to reduce the impact of its activites on the environment wherever feasible."

Let them know if you don't think everyone should be forced to live in our quasi-fascist, 21st century that cares about nothing but profit and power:

I hate to say it but with companies like Black Water running around the world there is going to be a lot of dead tribal members that no one will ever be prosecuted for.

Stop the intimidation of these and people like them now! The world cannot just sit back and allow people's rights to be brushed away for the sake of money. Look what the greed has done to our so called western 'economy'.

Take a good look at the aluminum can you might be drinking from. This is just one of the problems it creates.

The greed and destruction go on! This is simply not acceptable. What else can we do - this must not be allowed!

The Dongria have every right to protect their land.
Now it's the duty of the western world, as allies of the U.K. and India, to use our diplomatic hand to protect these important sites and homelands from colonization and destruction.

Hopefully i twill end in their favor.

I also hope they will not use aluminum arrows. (jk)

Fight on my brown brothers!

Ok. Axes and arrows dont work in this day and age. especially threatening before hand. They'll probably hire indian mercenaries with at least ak-47s.

Lets pray that this does not end in bloodshed.

Hopefully the Indian government will favor their citizens in this conflict and that a peaceful resolution can be obtained... although to be honest I doubt it will be the case

I love the tree trunk blockade! They are determined and ready to fight. More power to them...Literally!

It's about time people start standing up to the West.

i hope there IS bloodshed. these people need to protect their land with their lives and make an example of these vedanta fuckers. if anyone told me i was raping their sacred land for a little aluminum, i would stay the hell away. good for the kondhs

Thank you. Consider it done.They do what we should do. My heart is with them.

It's sad that people are so money hungry that they'll destroy someones land and not even bat an eyelash.

Because it's about people standing up for their rights. We are not powerless to stop the machine. We just have to wake up to the fact that we have power. We have to stand in solidarity; we have to take a stand. REVOLT, RESIST!

Stop the ignorence of all people, leave the sacred ground to whom it belongs too. VOTE DEMOCRAT

Sad but not surprising to see the perpetuating disregard given one nation by another for both its people and its resources. This same devastation is apparent through the entire United States, though. The only difference here being that our people choose to destroy their land to reap minimal profits and get subsidized by governments.

Ironic that "Vedanta" is a lineage if Hinduism devoted to the understanding of timelessness and our constant separation yet indivisible relationship to our surroundings...
