Dom Phillips and Bruno Araujo Pereira, veterans of the Amazon, would have
known the risks they faced when they set off for Atalaia do Norte in the
Brazilian rainforests remote Javari Valley a trip that ended in tragedy,
after Brazilian authorities said Friday they had identified the remains
of Phillips.<br><br>
On Wednesday, a suspect had confessed to killing the men, with police
following their directions to human remains in the jungle. Investigations
are continuing on the remains of the other body.<br><br>
The pair, who were first reported missing on June 5, had received death
threats prior to their departure, according to the Coordination of the
Indigenous Organization, known as UNIVAJA. Each was well versed in the
areas often-violent incursions by illegal miners, hunters, loggers and
drug-traffickers but they were equally dedicated to exposing how such
activity plagues Brazil’s protected wild areas, endangers its indigenous
peoples, and
<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2022/04/08/americas/brazil-amazon-deforestation-latam-intl/index.html?cid=external-feeds_iluminar_msn" target="_blank">
accelerates deforestation</a>.<br><br>
Pereira, a 41-year-old father of three, spent much of his life in service
of the country’s indigenous peoples since joining the Brazilian
governments indigenous agency (FUNAI) in 2010. He told CNN that the
agency’s Isolated and Newly Contacted Indigenous Coordination Office had
made a major expedition to contact isolated indigenous people under his
leadership in 2018, and that he had participated in multiple operations
to expel illegal miners from protected lands.<br><br>
Pereiras passion was evident in an interview with CNN last year. I cant
stay away for too long from the <i>parentes</i>, he said, referring to
the regions indigenous people with the affectionate term
relatives.<br><br>

Phillips, 57, a widely respected British journalist who had lived in Sao
Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, brought environmental issues and the Amazon to
the pages of the Financial Times, The Washington Post, The New York Times
and, principally, The Guardian. Pereira was on leave from FUNAI amid a
broader shake-up of the agency when he joined Phillips to assist in
research for a new book.<br><br>
The planned book would be titled How to save the Amazon.<br><br>
In a video filmed in May in an Ashaninka village in northwestern Acre
state, and released by the Ashaninka association, Phillips can be heard
explaining his endeavour: I came here () to learn with you, about your
culture, how you see the forest, how you live here and how you deal with
threats from invaders and gold diggers and everything else.<br><br>
<h3><b>A dangerous undertaking</b></h3>Home to thousands of indigenous
people and more than a dozen uncontacted groups, Brazil’s vast Javari
Valley is a patchwork of rivers and dense forest that makes access very
difficult. Criminal activity there often passes under the radar, or is
confronted only by indigenous patrols sometimes ending in bloody
conflict.<br><br>
In September 2019, indigenous affairs worker Maxciel Pereira dos Santos
was murdered in the same area, according to Brazil’s Public Prosecutors
Office. In a statement, a FUNAI union group cited evidence that dos
Santos murder was retaliation for his efforts to combat illegal
commercial extraction in the Javari Valley, Reuters reported at the
time.<br><br>
Across Brazil, standing up to illegal activity in the Amazon can be
deadly, as CNN has previously reported. Between 2009 and 2019, more than
300 people were killed in Brazil amid land and resource conflicts in the
Amazon, according to Human Rights Watch (HRW), citing figures from the
Catholic non-profit Pastoral Land Commission.<br><br>

<br>
Dom<br><br>
Critics have accused President Jair Bolsonaros administration of
emboldening the criminal networks involved in illegal resource
extraction. Since coming to power in 2019, Bolsonaro has
<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/04/19/americas/brazil-indigenous-protest-mining-intl-latam/index.html?cid=external-feeds_iluminar_msn" target="_blank">
weakened</a> federal environmental agencies, demonized organizations
working to preserve the rainforest, and rallied for economic growth on
indigenous lands arguing that it is for indigenous groups own welfare
with calls to
<a href="https://www.cnn.com/2021/06/22/americas/brazil-amazon-fear-meme-bolsonaro-intl/index.html?cid=external-feeds_iluminar_msn" target="_blank">
develop, colonize, and integrate</a> the Amazon.<br><br>
Pereira last year lamented the diminished state of Brazil’s environmental
and indigenous protection agencies under Bolsonaro’s presidency. But he
also saw a bright side, telling CNN that he thought the shift would push
the Javari Valleys indigenous peoples to overcome historical divisions
and form alliances to protect their shared interests.<br><br>
However, in another interview with CNN, later in the year, he was more
circumspect about the dangers. Having just returned from a trip in the
rainforest, his feet and legs covered with mosquito bites, Pereira
described a backlash from criminal groups to indigenous territorial
patrols.<br><br>
[The patrols] took them by surprise, I think. They thought that since the
government withdraw from operations, they would get a free pass on the
region, Pereira said.<br><br>
But neither Pereira nor Phillips were going to give a free pass to
exploitation of the Amazon.<br><br>
Dom knew the risks of going to the Javari Valley, but he thought that the
story was important enough to take those risks, Jonathan Watts, global
environmental editor for the Guardian told CNN.<br><br>
We knew it was a dangerous place, but Dom believes it is possible to
safeguard the nature and the livelihood of the indigenous people, said
his sister, Sian Phillips, in a video last week urging the Bolsonaro
government to intensify its search for the pair.<br><br>
On Wednesday, Jaime Matses, another local indigenous leader in the Javari
Valley, told CNN he had recently met with Pereira to discuss a new
potential project monitoring illegal activity in his community’s
territory.<br><br>
He seemed happy, Matses recalled. He wasn’t afraid to do the right thing.
We saw him as a warrior like us.<br><br>
And if their disappearance was intended to instil fear among those who
would follow in their footsteps, it has backfired, Kora Kamanari, another
local leader, told CNN on Wednesday.<br><br>
We are more united than before and will keep on fighting until the last
indigenous is killed.<br><br>

</a></b>'From South America, where payment must be made with subtlety,
the Bormann organization has made a substantial contribution. It has
drawn many of the brightest Jewish businessmen into a participatory role
in the development of many of its corporations, and many of these Jews
share their prosperity most generously with Israel. If their proposals
are sound, they are even provided with a specially dispensed venture
capital fund. I spoke with one Jewish businessmen in Hartford,
Connecticut. He had arrived there quite unknown several years before our
conversation, but with Bormann money as his leverage. Today he is more
than a millionaire, a quiet leader in the community with a certain share
of his profits earmarked as always for his venture capital benefactors.
This has taken place in many other instances across America and
demonstrates how Bormann’s people operate in the contemporary commercial
world, in contrast to the fanciful nonsense with which Nazis are
described in so much “literature.”<br><br>
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish participation in Bormann
companies that when Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv to
stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the Jewish and German
communities of Buenos Aires. Jewish leaders informed the Israeli
authorities in no uncertain terms that this must never happen again
because a repetition would permanently rupture relations with the Germans
of Latin America, as well as with the Bormann organization, and cut off
the flow of Jewish money to Israel. It never happened again, and the
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of these Jewish leaders.
He is residing in an Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most
efficient German infrastructure in history as well as by all those whose
prosperity depends on his well-being.'<br>

The list began eight weeks prior to the 350th anniversary of The Diggers. They occupied land at the end of the English Civil war with a noble mission to make the earth 'a common treasury for all'. In the spring of 1999 there were celebrations to remember the Diggers vision and their contribution to human freedom and what we now call social justice.<br>
