Once again the USG ignores treaties.

Ralph Nader has spoken of a Canadian company
which was given mining rights to many square miles of land in Nevada at $5 an acre



"giveaway of Apache burial, medicinal, and ceremonial grounds"

'the handover of a large tract of Tonto National Forest to Resolution Copper, a subsidiary of the Australian-English mining company Rio Tinto, which co-owns with Iran a uranium mine in Africa and which is 10-percent-owned by China.' The copper of the people of Afghanistan has been taken over by China and the mine is being guarded by American soldiers. In Arizona as well, these English, Australian and Chinese miners want to rape the land for copper.
