Name From Comments 4,441. Bill Johnson Wheaton, MD 4,442. Gary Prevo Livonia, MI This land grab reminds me of the conditions that led america to be the, "prosperous", country that it is. It caused for centuries of inhumane treatment to the indigenous peoples of this and other lands. it brought upon them pain, suffering, hunger and massacre. Do we as a civilized nation wish to stand by idly by while this happens to another group of human beings. There are a lot of Americans of good conscience who still carry the feelings of guilt for the carrying out manifest destiny. I hope not. Please do the right thing. Respectfully, 4,443. Joyce Faulk Austin, TX 4,444. Nan Hunter Wheatley Heights, NY This land is on loan to us from the Creator of all things. Removing these people from their home land constitutes a spiritual and physical assult aganist them form the deamons of greed who are doing this, if it is America or any other country the karma they will inflict upon their country and people will destroy them. 4,445.

Name From Comments 4,463. Mark Phemister LINCOLN, NE 4,464. Michael Lasky SANTA CRUZ, CA 4,465. Anita Kostas Santa Clarita, CA 4,466. nancy geist Avondale, PA 4,467.

Aurora Griffin Irrigon, OR 4,483. Ruth Meyer Keene, NH I am so appalled at the greed of US companies that exploit helpless human beings with untruths about improving their existences. Monsanto, DOW, etc. are the sorts to which I'm referring. 4,484. Laura Molinario Kansas City, MO 4,485. Robert Knight Vestal, NY The US government forcibly relocated our native Americans in violation of US treaties with those native peoples, & in violation of their human rights, and gave their lands to American settlers and businesses. America, with its financial clout in Ethiopia, now can begin to make amends by standing on the side of 70,000 people from Gambella, to stop this land grab. Americans must answer the question: is OUR government on the side of the 1% or on the side of the 99%? When America gives $1 billion per year to Ethiopia, does America insist that the $1 billion goes to the everyday people of Ethiopia and groups representing them? Think about it. Its great to know that the American people are watching these developments and speaking up! Respectfully submitted. 4,486. rio valencia Midlothian, VA Page 163 - Signatures 4,463 - 4,486
