The short explanation of this alert was:

URGENT: Peru Is Murdering Amazon Protesters!

In the past several days the Peruvian government murdered dozens of Indigenous protesters who tried to unite in peaceful protest against oil expansion in their forests.

Peru's President, Alan Garcia, says that in order to meet its Free Trade Agreement responsibilities to the United States Peru must prioritize the demands of international resource exploitation even as they undermine the land rights of Peru's Indigenous peoples.

And so far the US has been silent.

Act now and tell Secretary of State Hillary Clinton that the US needs take a stand and formally demand that Peru end the violence now.

Your message will be sent as an electronic fax to Secretary Clinton in order to maximize your impact!
