Peru: US Oil Company Threatened with Eviction from Amazon

  Indigenous people have threatened to evict a US company, Hunt Oil,
exploring for oil on their ancestral land in the Peruvian Amazon.

FENAMAD says that local people have also asked to speak directly to
Hunt’s owners. Hunt is a private company whose CEO, Ray Hunt, is a
long-standing associate of former US presidents George Bush and George
W. Bush.

Hunt owns the rights to explore in the region, which includes land
belonging to the Yine, Matsigenka and Harakmbut tribes, with
Repsol-YPF. Last month, FENAMAD announced it was suing both companies.

At the heart of the region is the Amarakaeri Communal Reserve, used by
many indigenous villages for hunting and fishing and the source of six
rivers that are the only fresh water supply for an estimated ten
thousand people.

   Where is the news media on this issue?You think that maybe Rush
would cover it,I know the answer.
