Trapped Chilean Miners Rescue Beginning. Live Coverage
(Excerpt) Read more at guardian.co.uk ...
And their president LISTENED and got help right away, unlike ours who let the gulf coast drown in oil for weeks before even thinking about making a move
Yes, leadership, and also God-fearing people! There’s lots of love to go around, too, which is so heartwarming to see.
OMG. The mining minister is saying the mine is owned by a private company. We cannot just seize it etc etc.
i.e. Chile respects private property rights. I wonder what that must be like? Sounds like a dream.
The BBC is trying to stir up leftist crap as usual. The BBC is blaming the earthquake on President Pinera.
The miners also have legal rights in Chile. In other words Chile’s justice system does not have “no standing” in their court cases versus the govt. Amazing.
How many rescuers left, I wonder?
Yes God was in that mine with those men!! No doubt about it.
As the front of their shirts proclaim.
Gloria Senor!!!!!
here we go, capsule has reached the bottom, last miner getting ready to board
Thanks. It looks like a cross between a phone and a remote control, so I wasn’t sure.
5 or 6
I read where the Unions, including the International Union was slamming Pinera too. He’s definately one of the good guys.
The feed from the BBC has been very good but the announcers are a couple of far left wing “wankers”!
Did anyone else hear the narrator from chilean TV talk about how great Chile is, and then say the same thing about the USA? I wonder if anyone in the MSM will mention it.
Under the Psalm, it says, “To HIM be the glory and honor!” too. AMEN!!!
Geees sounds like Shep had to tell the big wigs not to cut to commercial! What idiots are working there?
The BBC is full of shit,and to think once they were know for for their accuracy
He’s going up now!
Last miner locked and loaded and we have lift off!!
the chilean President said, “We are a great country. And the United States is a great country and we give thanks to the United States. We are together.”
whoa..wish our president would be that proud of us.
The union is loaded with COMMIES. Pres Pinera and his government was in power for 5 months when the accident happened! The real blame should fall on the left of center governments of Elwin, Frei, Lagos and Bachelet who let this mine run for 20+ years!
I’ve watched each and every rescue...except #s 5, 6, 7, 8, and 20! Missed those due to a little sleep and travel between work and home! Am so grateful to have been part of this most miraculous experience! Wish I could speak Spanish...my two years in HS just aren’t cutting it!
Is this their national anthem,,,,,,anyone??
