May 29 2011 Rain Forest people Ramos and De Silva
killed over Rain Forest lumbering in the Amazon this past week. At this spot where Sandra Bullock dedicated her song
to Jesus and was killed by the Bolivian ommandante, George Dyott who searced for the Colonel Percy Fawcett party
received his first report the Guayaramerins being where Colonel Fawcett entered into the remote territory. Which did
not prove out. East of here mahogany rain forests and further east unknown territory indian lands and worlds richest diamond
mines. Thousands of bodies of those from Rio dug up. Killed by indians in the diamond business. The recent Information
of Ramos and De Silva, Al Jazeera.
She along with Craig Scheffer and a cast of actors including George Bustamante, Ramsay Ross, Juan Fernandez, Judith Chapman made
FIRE ON THE AMAZON part of the movie on the right bank you see in the photo. She played Alisha Rothman social worker
for the amazon preservation of the rain forest society. She was shot in the stomach by the commandante, played by
George Bustamente, and died within half a minute after the evacuating float plane took off from the bank you see on the right
which is the Bolivia side of the Guayaramerins. Ramsay Ross juntos with the commandante tried to prevent her evacuation.
This is the Mamore-Madeira river, Brazil on left Bolivia bank on right. It is the most beautiful nicely scented place
on earth and capitol of the falciparum mosquito which will reproduce only in the purist of water having a slow current. From
the more advanced amazon basin of Bolivia it took me 44 hours on an old very dusty where the front section of the
old chicken bus could hardly be seen to travel 300 miles to here, with one stop at a village at night to fix a wheel.
With young livestock pressed up against the thatch homes for protection from jaguars. There was a 150 mile train
here on the Brazil side for both Brazil and Bolivia that shunted a hundred miles of rough water to transport rubber.
Then it was 1,300 miles down the amazon only by boat transportation to the Atlantic. More workers died per mile of track put
down than any rail project in the world. The cargo was goma (rubber) reuterating. I have a subpage page on Colonel
Percy Fawcett earlier years when he was a major and Bolivia surveyor searching far upriver in what has become
to be known as the Lost World for rubber trees to increase the wealth of Bolivia. In his search he crossed
by a settlement of early escaped African slaves in the history of Brazil where the only original African dance is found in
the world today. It is still difficult to reach. Then a major before WW1 fawcett also left a report of travel with indians
down the Bolivia Abuna river which empties into the Mamore-Madeira 40 miles to the north of the Guayaramerins in Bolivia calling
it the most disease infested river in the world full of bandits and war like indians. It was here on a section
of the Abuna called rio negro nearing the Mamore-Madeira river fifty miles north of the Guayaramerins that major Fawcett
shot the world record Anaconda of 44 ft length, 700 pounds. The indians with him were afraid his shot would not be good enough
and it would attack as large anacondas often do. Civilization is reaching the Abuna, still primative in the Bolivia state
of Pando, with a Brazil highway north of the Bolivia Abuna 15 miles distance from the river. The Brazil-Bolivia line
runs near here. Stay in your motel nights and clamp down your windows and watch the edge of the yard in the day. The Abuna
remains untraveled, uninhabited
It was here 1994 near Riberalta Bolivia sister city of Guayaramerin Bolivia that NASA paid local indians 150 musical
casetts, 40 boxes of 22 long rifle caliber and $200.00 to investigate a metorite strike crater on the indian land.
When NASA returned four years later the tribe wanted four new aluminum canoes with Evenrude outboard motor outriggers,
$2,000.00 in cash and a permanent paid for by NASA office in Riberalta, Bolivia.
In the small Brazil state of Rondonia you see on the left it is only a relative few hours by bus in the Brazil
state of Rondonia towards the Mato Grosso state to the Rondonia Roosevelt River Bridge which is where President
Theadore Roosevelt and Colonel Rondon of Brazil set out to explore the River of Doubt, called that because it did not flow
into the Mamore-Madeira as it was thought it should. After three months not seeing a person of European origin they found
where it came out in European settlementand flowed into. Near the Roosevelt River Bridge the worlds wealthiest diamond mines
were discovered 2002 on the indian lands. There is still human slavery in the mahogany forests of Rondonia. They are
destitute people. You are safe if you are an American. They will never get out until there is mercy. It is necessary
to run up a debt which is never repayable. Law enforcement will always bring them back to repay it. For additional
economy big scent dogs catalog individuals scents. Generally this group of mahogany forest workers are very satisfied with
their lives. Technically there is no slavery in Brazil. Brazilian law does not permit the owning of a human being.
