Besides being one of the most prominent political figures who has been fighting against Raposa Serra do Sol indigenous land recognition over the last years, he is co-author of a law project which submits indigenous land demarcation to parliament decision, which would mean an end to indigenous land recognition, and possibly revision of lands already demarcated. As a matter of fact, he just won today, (environment day) a similar prize: that of "member of parliament enemy of the amazon", awarded by the Braszilian Forum of NGOs and Social Movements for Environment and Development (FBOMS), Socio-environmental Institute (ISA), Greenpeace, Imazon, Friends of the Earth Brazilian Amazon, and the Landless Movement (MST). Check the website: http://noticias.uol.com.br/politica/2009/06/05/ult5773u1352.jhtm A strong item on his CV towards other similar prizes... don't you think?

It is they who ought to speak of the "bad values"of those people of European ancestry who killed off their tens of millions of their ancestors by disease and genocide, and made them subordinate to the European outsiders and their descendants.
