Guatemala: child theft, adoption, human organ market by angryindian

Where is the mainstream media on this story?  If this were people other than those as described in this article, would anyone care?  - The Angryindian

As follow-up to information we circulated on June 23, BELOW, you will find more news - English y Espanol – about child-trafficking; finding of mutilated bodies; removal of organs; ensuing community violence.

Of particular note: If the CAFTA "free" trade agreement with the United States is ratified, human bones, organs and tissues will be considered merchandise. (see below)

These crimes against children are to be understood in the context of a country where the “Peace Accords” of the 1990s did not work; where the unjust economic, political and military structures of the past (dating back to the 1954 USA-orchestrated coup against the democratic government of

Guatemala) are intact; where the wealthy and powerful are protected by impunity and a fundamental lack of democracy. Guatemala is not a “failed state” ... it is a crushed state, dominated and manipulated by the greedy and repressive interests of internal and international economic and political forces.
