*Press Invite* **
*This morning (6 June) over 10 platoons of riot police have been stationed face to face with thousands of villagers rightfully and peacefully resisting forcible takeover of their lands for the POSCO project in Jagatsinghpur district in Odisha. The communities are resisting brutal police action that is being engaged to illegally and wrongfully dispossess communities from their farming and forest lands against their will and also in violation of assurances made by the Odisha Govt before the Odisha High Court. POSCO is the single largest FDI in **India** and is being aggressively promoted by Odisha and Indian Governments to advantage some of the biggest American Banks and Warren Buffet who form key investors of this investment. It is critical that the POSCO investment is exposed for what it truly is: the unprecedented legalised loot of our natural resources, a crime far worse than the 2G and Commonwealth scams. Addressing such concerns and to request the media to focus on the blatant violation of human rights being engaged in to promote POSCO, a Press Conference is organised as follows:*** *PRESS CONFERENCE * *on * *Ongoing Repression and Forcible Land Acquisition for POSCO in Odisha** * *and * *Release of Report of Environment Support Group on * *Environmental and Social Consequences of the POSCO Project* * * *Date: **7 June 2011** * *Venue: Indian Women’s Press Corps, Janpath (near Le Meridian Hotel) * *Time: **11.30 AM** * * * *To Be Addressed By: * *Leo F.

The Nazis got these lists with the help of IBM which was in the 'census' business that included racial census that entailed not only count the Jews but also identifying them. At the United States Holocaust Museum in Washington, DC, there is an exhibit of an IBM Hollerith D-11 card sorting machine that was responsible for organising the census of 1933 that first identified the Jews.* * * *http://saynotoaadhaar.blogspot.com/* *http://aadhararticles.blogspot.com/* *http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_162987527061902&ap=1*<http://www.facebook.com/home.php?sk=group_162987527061902&ap=1> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "humanrights movement" group.
