Classic Lumpia Logic moment

Great interview. She states that "the arms are a big problem" but I fear what would happen if these groups disarm. Considering the current government of India, disarmament would mean that they completely lose their leverage and likely lose their land. As a political force, they are still too small while the government, and the mining and forestry companies are all armed.

i really enjoyed this. the beginning could have been a little bit more explainatory, but after catching up it was notacible that brace is a competent interviewer and can be more serious if he can't let loose with knowing that liz is in control of guiding the interviews :)

Lumpia Logic

Maoists (CPP-NPA) in the Philippines are now on Radio Free Asia & coordinating targets with US gov. Not all Maoists are to be trusted.

Lumpia Logic

A member of Communist Party of India (M) was abducted by Maoists from his house in Lalgarh, taken to the forest & murdered brutally. The dead body of martyred Adivasi Comrade was kept in the open and nobody was allowed to come near it. Again, can’t trust all Maoists.
