Yeah, they want total control of Brazil!

This article is a piece of garbage.

It is a communist propaganda, written by an idiot who wants to transform Brazil into another North Korea.

I am sick and tired of gringos wanting to make of my country a laboratory of communist experiences that have failed in every single single part of the world where it was tried.

The solution for Brazil is not more leftist radicalism. We have enough of this. What we really need is a government which respects the law and upholds the individual right of each citizen. When it happens, enterprenerial people will feel confident to invest in more production, giving job to millions of people..

Líder do MST apóia atentados anti-Israel
GILSE GUEDES


BRASÍLIA – Três dias depois de Yasser Arafat posar para fotos com uma bandeira do Movimento dos Sem-Terra, José Rainha Júnior, um dos líderes do MST, manifestou ontem apoio aos atentados contra alvos israelenses, incluindo civis. “Os atentados contra Israel são a arma de defesa dos palestinos”, disse Rainha, que comandou manifestação de 300 sem-terra diante da Embaixada de Israel em defesa da luta palestina. “Nos atentados, muitas vezes as vítimas são civis, mas não há outra saída, porque eles enfrentam uma guerra.”

Segundo Rainha, o agricultor gaúcho Mário Lill, um dos coordenadores do MST que está no QG de Arafat em Ramallah, foi ao encontro do líder palestino e lhe entregou a bandeira do MST porque há afinidades entre a causa palestina e a luta dos sem-terra no Brasil.

Em meio à manifestação do MST, Rainha entrou na Embaixada de Israel para entregar ao representante do governo israelense no Brasil, Daniel Gazit, uma carta assinada pelo PSTU, na qual o primeiro-ministro de Israel, Ariel Sharon, é comparado a Hitler.INTERTITULO/INTERTITULO

Em Ramallah, Lill disse ontem que Arafat está confiante numa reação da comunidade internacional para forçar o Exército de Israel a desocupar a cidade. No encontro que teve ontem com os ativistas estrangeiros confinados com ele no local, Arafat reafirmou estar disposto a sentar a qualquer momento para negociar a paz, desde que com o território palestino assegurado, informou Lill por telefone celular ao Estado. “Estamos na expectativa de que a ONU designe uma força de paz”, disse Lill. O agricultor afirmou que não pretende deixar o QG enquanto não for negociada uma saída pacífica para o conflito. (Colaborou Sérgio Gobetti)

The article is an absurdity written by a left-wing agitator who has no regard for basic principles of liberal democracy.

The truth is that this Sue Branford is a Marxist which is trying to hide the true totalitarian side of the MST, to give this a totally false façade of well-intentioned and democratic movement.

It is time to declare to the world that the MST is a communist organization.
Also, it is time to declare that Brazil has no need for an agrarian reform that requires radically changing the structure of properties.

It is not about the size of the lands, but its productivity - which depends on capital, and not on millions of people carrying scythes, like cattle under the command of red horns.

Finaly, that this talk about settling people in the rural area is a great lie, because the population who lives in the rural area in the most productive agriculture in the world, USA, represents only 1,5% of the total population.
And, concluding, it is time we proclaim that it is necessary to put an end to the constant insults to the Brazilian people by people like this Sue Brandford.

If MST would spend their time working instead of trying to steal land from others, they would have plenty of their own. MST are just lazy communists waiting for handouts.

People like Sue Branford have no respect for natural social development of Brazilean society and without looking at (recent) history would love to impose another socialist experiment disaster on another country. wake up Sue, it doesn't work, it just creates CHAOS!
Brazil is awake and is dealing with the it's real social problems itself, but one step at a time preserving the goose with the golden eggs.

I'm not a communist, but land reform is a must in any country. Even USA used in japan pos-war era. People who think turning their head for this problem thinking will just go somewhere is really wrong. The walking of MST people, is the same walking blacks americans did for their rights, still today, is called 1 million men walk! this is democracy! I wish, these loud mouths Brazilians would walk for Security, education, economy, justice etc...Better than have a Colombia MST blowing your houses, this is the kind of problem can became. Democratic country share justice and freedom to all citizens, I don't see it as a communist demostration, but a right use of the constitution rights. The MST people are not asking the Governament to take others people land, but give most of the governament land that is not in use, or buy land that is for sale. That's why the price tag to a land reform. Now if you want to see a communist country, go to North Koreia and see how they do land reform!

When it happens, enterprenerial people will feel confident to invest in more production, giving job to millions of people

I hope you're referring to native entrepreneurship. Brazil will only be independent when it creates corporations a powerful as many multinationals around here. Then the ability of "generating jobs" will be in Brazilians hands and not in "dólar de motel".

One example of how harmful can the external intereference be was the last elections for president, but thank God the people had the guts to vote for Lula, despite the economic incertainty caused by foreigner investors.

If we weren't so dependent on foreign money in our economy they wouldn't be able to create such pressure.

Viva MST!

Down with the imperialist white oligarchy, who stole all the lands of brazil from indigenous and black people. f**k you all oligarchy bastards!

MST is the greatest organization in brazil and for you white oligarchy land bastards, here is my reply - "Up Yours".

All land in Brazil needs to be given to campesinos and all the f**king IMF, world bank, gringo imperialists, and the white oligarchy needs to give the land back to the black and indigenous peoples.

This is a great great article!! for the first two racist posters, my reply -
"f**k you bitches!"

Let me first say that I agree with the previous post about how important land reform is to any democratic society. I have donated money to the organization and I plan on buying their films too. Now I must admit that sometimes I dont agree with the MST but their actions are important in Brazil.
SOmeone mentioned how important it was for the US to do land reform. And it occured here in the USA, after the Civil War with the homestead act that broke down the large estates in the South to poor farmers.
The USA did a massive land reform program in Japan after the Japanese lost WWII. They broke down the large farmland of the samurai and redistributed it to japanese peasants. The same policy occured in South Korea. All of these countries are now liberal democracies not socialist regimes!
Now the MST have sometimes been radical because they know that is sometimes the only way to push governments towards land reform. The government has hundreds of millions of acres that is unused why is that land not given to the MST? It only makes sense at least they will produce on this land.
Now as De Soto rights it is important for Brazil to push for ownership rights and the MST deserve a plot of land. The benefits to the overall society is good, but what I dont agree with the MST is when the invade a productive plot of land that is helping Brazil export to the world market since today Brazil's debt is extremely high and a large trade surplus is needed to avoid greater economic problems!

"I do not think that U.S is a good example for the rest of the world to follow" ;" illmoral tyrants", dispite how much effort they expend to try and make themself seem of the highest order of "purity". Find another example, maybe England, Canada, France ect..

Eu tava na marcha ontem! Foi muito organizada e totalmente pacifica.
Fiquei lá das uma até as 9 e pude ver de perto oque aconteceu na realidade no centro do poder, inclusive o ocorrido em frente ao congresso nacional, o simbolo da democracia no país. O MST estava lá apenas participando da democracia e isso é um direito de todo brasileiro.
Infelizmente nós temos a Globo para disvirtuar a magnitude da marcha e denegrir a imagem desta mostrando apenas o confronto com a policia que foi causado PELA POLICIA. Eu estava lá, eu pude ver os policiais provocando. Eram 12 mil pessoas pensantes. As vezes é dificil se controlar. Nem a policia com todo o treinamento, radios de comunicação, um contigente bem menor ( eles nem andaram pra chegar em Brasilia) conseguiu controlar os seus policiais. E a Globo só mostrou a quebradeira. O maior problema é que existem pessoas q acreditam em tudo oq veem na globo mesmo sabendo q ela é contra o MST e pior, acreditam e ainda se acham os intelectuais por assistir o jornal nacional(nacional?).
Sobre o direito de resistencia dos palestinos. Isso nao é um pensanmento só do MST. Os xaques e chefes d estados que vieram na Cupula A.L./paises arabes tambem concordaram da mesma forma de vários outros estados INCLUSIVE o Brasil apoiou.
E EU tb.

Sorry, I can't do that in english.
Thanks.

the IMF are Jews the Worlb Bank are Jews the communist are Jews! who do you want? What are you going to get? JEWS!! (not that there is anything wrong with that!! sic) if you are not Jewish you are Goyim!!

All the land should be given to indegenious and black people? What makes you so special that you should be "given" anything but a kick in the bombom? Why don't you lazy MST communists try working, instead of demanding handouts? Communism doesn't work because everyone sits on their ass (like MST) and expects "manna from heaven" . Sorry, but that has not fallen since Biblical times so get a f**king job, preduica.

Well off, wannabee Yankee-a- likes, Brasilians, embarrised by the existence of groups that represent the reality of Brasil for the majority of its citizens.

Yankee idiots shouting about communisem when they dont even know what captatilsem is.

a few lone voices trying to say something sensible about a good article.

Typical thread on brazzil,com lol

The MST is not asking for handouts dude, they are asking for their constitution rights to work on the land! If all they wanted was handouts they would not be asking for land reform but for more money from the pension or unemployment benefits!
Seriously, land reform is essential to capitalism itself.....it just is, communist would never ask for the land since they consider it should be held by the public secotor not in the private hands of farmers....They dont sit on their ass , they always active in pushing and promoting land reform.........Yes some of them our communists but you know what, communists exist in almost every country and they sometimes join groups that the does not mean that the group is fully supportative of communism or its ideology....

Get the govt to offer fair market prices to existing landowners, and pay for the land with bond issue. Sell land to small farmers, and offer low interest loans to pay for same. Everybody wins. A first world country would find a way to make this work, however, in Brazil...

I was interested to note how little analysis or engagement with what was said marked much of the critical comment. Abuse does not constitute discussion and argument but reveals the lack of understanding and thought.

brazil es lo mejorrrrrrr!!!!!!!!!!!!

good information it helped my child with her homework.
