It is often easy to forget that the battles we face against corporate
invasion on American soil are playing out across the planet. It is a
global agenda after all. But we rarely see the faces and hear the
stories of people similarly affected by the same monstrosity that aims
to eliminate national sovereignty and individual rights, while
completely disregarding the health of people and the environment.
Fracking has gone beyond a contentious issue as study after study has not only called into question the health and environmental safety of the practice, but studies have even linked fracking to earthquakes and other regional earth changes.
The video below shows Romanian villagers squaring off against the
enforcers of the corporatist theft of their land in collusion with the
local mayor and higher government. The passion, sorrow and strength of
resistance is unmistakable, as is the eloquence of those who appear to
describe their motivations for fighting against a seemingly
insurmountable "horde of foreign invaders." It's the same fight we all
share.
