....for their community, without intercultural intervention. What about those of the amazon rainforest. Or will they possibly continue living their lives the way they are.

AND WHO ARE THE IMMATURE SNOT RAGS WHO COMPLAIN AND HAVE BONAFIDE QUESTIONS DELETED? http://www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,24732386-5003402,00.html Women 'killing babies' to end war December 01, 2008 10:04am FRUSTRATED women in Papua New Guinea's Highland region are reportedly killing their male babies to end a tribal fight that has lasted for more than 20 years. Two women from the Eastern Highlands told the PNG's National newspaper of the slaughter during a three-day peace and reconciliation course in the region's capital Goroka. Rona Luke and Kipiyona Belas, each from two warring tribes, said the male infanticide reduces the cyclical payback violence infamous in Highlands tribal fights. If women stopped producing males their tribe's stock would go down and this would force the men to end their fight, they said choking back tears. "All the womenfolk agreed to have all babies born killed because they have had enough of men engaging in tribal conflicts and bringing misery to them," Ms Luke said. The women could not give a figure on how many male babies had been killed. Ms Belas said getting food was hard as husbands kept fighting and mothers and children were left to fend for themselves. The Salvation Army is working with various tribes to bring peace to the warring groups, one particular fight continues after starting in 1986 over sorcery claims. The Salvation Army told the Australian Associated Press women are so fed up with the ongoing violence they are taking the drastic steps. "This situation shows the extreme frustration the women have with the men in these areas," a spokesman said.
