Environmentalism is the druid type religion of the upper class.

"t was surprising that environmentalists would lie. . ."

You call yourself a journalist? Give me a break.

"It was surprising that environmentalists would lie..."

Hahaha! A light bulb goes off in one liberal's head.

Rich, urban environmentalists are like manor lords imagining their serfs as plump, happy peasants dancing in the green all day. "Yes, Margaret, they live a simple, bucolic life, one with nature. Pass the Chardonnay."

Western liberals want Romanian peasants to remain in a 19th century existence so they can congratulate themselves on preserving "pristine" rural values. Never mind if the people who live there want to find a better life for themselves. Keeping them where they are is for their own good.

"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." -Manuel II Paleologus

An ENVIRONMENTALIST is a person who makes a living out of making trouble for other people by working to restrict their rights of access and liberties to parts of our country....

[socialismisinsidious]

It is sad that my fellow left-wingers and environmentalists who often come from the most developed countries are now so opposed to development.

They are opposed to it for the same reason the loony libs love socialism...because they are elitist!

The writer needs to wake up and learn what the rest of us already know: Liberalism generates the exact opposite of its stated intent. (Quinn's first Law)

Thank God I was born in the USA!

Gabriel Resources is actually a very, environmentally concerned company. The Romanians love it. They've done quite a lot to clean up the cyanide mess left by the previous Communist proprietors before it was shut down.

Their website is here:

For what it's worth, I have had a small holding of Gabriel Stock for the past year, and it's done very well. But gold is correcting at the moment; I wouldn't recommend going into that sector until maybe mid November or later.

Needless to say, no one should buy any stock without doing due diligence, as well.

Headline is incorrect. There's nothing new about it.

HURRAY!!!!!!!!! The no-science tree hugger looneys are having an impact on some of the people they want to 'save'. So here's the choice you over-educated-under-science lame brains: the poor of the world can get along on what a pathetic undernourished over-pest-infected fruit tree can produce, or you can help feed the poor by helping them use modern techniques. Go for it baby and make your decision....tick, tick, tick....
