No doubt people here have heard the wonderful news that all the Chilean miners who were trapped underground in a copper and gold mine in Chile have been found safe and well. After so many days lost and trapped almost all were giving up hope of finding them alive again. The first things the miners did was send up a message to their families saying they are all alive and well in the refuge. We all saw President Pinera in the media holding the two messages in a plastic protective sheet. Here it is (below) in case you missed it. Pinera's image has been all over the media with regards to the miners rescue. Any one would be forgiven for thinking he personally drilled the hole that discovered the miners in their refuge. Father of the Patria, Pinera, rescues his children the miners and is there to pass on his needed support. What would they do without him? What would the nation do with out this hero/strong man? Everything is under control.
Definitely heartwarming stuff and we love to hear they are safe and all alive. Their families must be overjoyed.
However, one thing that has not been shown in the MSM are the other notes that the miners have also sent up. There were actually 4 notes sent up together.
Here are the other two notes sent by the miners below. The third notes says "Shut up Pinera!" and the forth note says "Support the Mapuches 41 days on hunger strike. (signed) The miners of the Atacama."
Now that puts it all in another picture doesn't it? Never for a minute do these workers forget the forces that are against them.
