Classic confrontation. In an impoverished area of Romania, gold has been found on the outskirts of a village. Most villagers are happy to sell their homes and hope to see some measure of prosperity and commerce come to them. Environmentalists supported by George Soros are fighting the mine development and reference the use of cyanide in the mining procedure. Celebrities/environmentalists like Vanessa Redgrave are engaged, as well.
Not much surprise of where the editorial writers from the Wall Street Journal come down but it is interesting to note how they frame the debate of environmentalists loving the earth and hating people…a theme sure to be repeated.
