To blame the 60% favored president of Ecuador or the Goldman award winning lawyer on the case is despicable. To blame the country, the dying people there and the orphans who are just hanging on? There are no words. The innocent, peaceful millions of victims deserve better. The will use their dying breath to say the name of who is solely responsible for their murder. Chevron. I've been there. I know. <br /><br />I am dedicating my profession to this cause. I know that there are so many causes to choose from and I hate to pick favorites. I'm still on board for the rest of them too. The fact that Chevron calls me, writes to me, threatens me and has my comments flagged and deleted from the world wide web to get me to stop having an opinion? Makes me think that I am on to something. <br /><br />Say a prayer for me if you think that prayers are worth saying that the indigenous victims in Ecuador live long enough to face the murderer of their relatives in court. Tell the victims and orphans in Ecuador that you are on their side by speaking out on the world wide web to counter the lies and that we can not be bought. <br /><br />To Amazon watch and all of the other charities that are fighting to save the rain forest, count me in. I have the loudest voice, was made for carrying a picket sign, can play a mean guitar, can write a hell of a song and take can take a hell of a beating. <br /><br />Keep your ears on the radio for the song a certain 1/2 Ecuadorian girl wrote for Christina Aguilera to benefit Ecuador. Christina is 1/2 Ecuadorian just like me! The song to benefit the orphans in Ecuador is called "You are the world to me" <br />God bless our good intentions. <br /><br />Peace :) <br />Edit Remove 1 Previous Review: Hide » <br />4/24/2010 First to Review <br />Amazon Watch is non profit fighting for the lives of the Amazon's indigenous. <br /><br />This work is most personal to me because my father was adopted by a Texaco contractor after my grandparents were killed by Chevron/Texaco's oil activities in Ecuador. <br /><br />This location is the largest in California and hosts an array of soul satisfying opportunities to become involved in helping the indigenous survive the genocide in Ecuador. <br /><br />Peruse some unbiased literature that details what Amazon watch is doing in the community and in the world. <br /><br />My heart, my soul, my tears, my hands, my talent and my life are dedicated to the hope that the Amazon's natives survive. <br /><br />http://www.youtub... <br />http://en.wikiped... <br />http://www.washin... <br /><br />http://articles.l... <br /><br />http://chevrontox.../ <br /><br />http://www.chevro... <br /><br />http://www.goldma... <br />http://www.pddnet... <br /><br />http://www.vanity... <br /><br />******************** *****PEACE********** ******************** **********Marybornhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00346804002786275843noreply@blogger.com
