    The Nasa people are showing their determination to keep their territory free of conflict. The Colombian government under Santos should be listening to them. The civil war will not end by flooding the indigenous territories with more than 2000 soldiers. It is actually endangering the local communities even more. WELL DONE NASA PEOPLE - we Colombians who believe in a negotiated end to the conflict with the guerrillas fully support your effors. GRACIAS PUEBLO NASA!!
