They need to leave these people alone, except to protect them before they become deciminated like every other native group that has come into contact with outsiders.

Let them live in peace!

I hate to break it to you, but not everyone wants to live like us, where how much stuff you have is the ultimate purpsoe of life.

Could it be the secret set for the latest Sony Bravia TV commercial instead?

They''''re not aiming arrows at the helicopter.

They''''re aiming at the FOXNews, Carl Rove, Bill Orally and Mann Coulter banner being towed behind it.

So these are Berkleyites who moved to the jungle to get away from it all. Thanks for clearing that up.

Explains why the warriors seem to have some advanced civilization guts on them too.

Just don''''t send them to Texas. They will steal their children and tell the women how to dress and wear their hair.

Have you ever watched one of those TV shows where they go into the jungle and translate everything these villagers say? What''s amazing, once their words are translated, is how MODERN their concerns, grips, laughter, etc appears to be. They''re walking around with nothing on, talking about drinking too much last night, who''s cheating on who, how to get wealthier or get more status, etc.

Some people mentioned that these tribes may not be peaceful, noting that in the picture they were pointing their arrows at the plane. Not necessarily true. First, they need weapons to hunt. Second, having what appears to be a very large, noisy bird (the plane) coming at you, of course they felt a need to try to defend themselves. This is in no way an indication that they''re an aggressive people.

If they are isolated from the rest of the world it means they have never heard of God, Jesus, Muhammad, Allah, Abraham, David, Buddah, etc...

Does this mean they will all go to hell and not get 72 virgins?

I am cherokee descendant, I say leave them alone. If it weren''t for your so-called democracy we would''ve done very fine indeed. Keep it to yourself and leave the natives alone. They don''t NEED or WANT your BRITISH type influence, just the way you invaded our lands for your so-called need to escape, only we have no escape from you.

Don''t worry. They will be introduced to modern civilization soon. Coca-Cola is planning to do a fly-by and drop off a few cases of Diet Coke.

===that their voice has to be heard or someone will simply step on their human rights and civil rights as well...they should be trained on the basics in our world...which include the internet....believe it or not...===

Uh, wouldn''t that kind of interference basically be steppingon their rights? We have to destroy them to save them? I don''t buy it. Besides, he arrogance of white man makes us think they *want* our way of life.

Someone should warn the tribesmen, so they can get their cauldrons nice and hot for their arrival.

I was saying, leave them alone. They are better off most likely without the craziness of modern society, however, if they chose to accept some help in the form of food they don''t have to hunt, or medicines for problems we can treat, then I say let them choose.

I just don''t want society to force itself on these people. They live the way they live. It might be primitive, but apparently, they''ve gotten by ok.

I think its a beautiful thing that there are some people who haven''t been exposed to the concrete jungles of ''civilized'' nations. I would just hope for thier happiness under their own terms.
