Chilean Miner Rescued - Fraud Deception Propaganda

[wiedlin1]

yo soy Chileno y este tipo esta muy mal informado, y miente, en Chile no existen las conspiraciones, solo en los paises extremadamente corruptos. saludos.

[gonzalo060375]

The rest was just the determination of the Chilean Gov., and the humanitarian response from the world to 33 families asking for help, after the Codelco specialists estimated a 2% prob. of bring the miners back up alive.

Most of the credits for this, are for anonymous workers and companies from some 20 countries, who gave from food, clothes and medicines, to work hours and equipment.

[gonzalo060375]

It was just a bitter moment in the lives of 33 humble workers from my country. Most Chileans were shocked by the huge contrast between these humble miners and the high safety standards of CODELCO workers (state-owned copper company , producing 11% of world copper, Wiki: Codelco). Some of them didn't have even tap water in their own worker's camps homes.

The Gov. was smart enough to seek help everywhere, rather than facing a failure by keeping the rescue as a private issue (like China)

[marcos497]

TRUE

GRINGO AWEONAO

[gibbodude]

and what...all the waiting relatives where actors! Sorry but you're self delluded.

[codalisa007]

After all the media attention the chilean miners claim the president reneged on the promised medical care deal. Politicians say one thing and do another. Shame on him!!!

[ger1ify]

i live in trinidad,and when i saw it live,i wondered 'wait a minute',why 33 miners,then i remembered,33 highest degree in masonry,when it pop into my head,i said this is bullshit im taking off this tv.i kept telling my mother this is a fake,but she wouldnt believe me even up to this day.

[vandewones]

I watched it live and wondered why the t shirts the miners had on had the star just like a masonic inverted down star,and the eye of Horus on the galsses..on the company logo,and the trucks and banners are all pyramids. thank you to Nasa for the help or is it disney cant remember,umm.. also 34 went down 33 came up, for 4 days news..papers.. 34 miners! umm so 11 degree angle shaft 33 men elovated make a nice Disney film..

[madafakactm]

mmm yo pienso q el accidente fue verdad pero la espectacion fue exesiva

[benthemiester]

I think most people can read through the bullshit or at least I hope they do. Unfortunately we here in the US are no better. This is not a Bush thing or an Obama thing. This is a western civilization thing, and we also have a responsibility to let our politicians know how we feel. Maybe were all to blame. Some for their actions, and some for their in actions, although speaking up is a start. Next is consuming less energy and taking the bus to work instead of driving. How many did I lose there?

[Rasko84]

Statistics say that in CHILE, bakers have more accidents than miners, that is a fact. Chile is actually a country which lives off of mining, and the standards are very high which makes this accident a special accidental occasion. The whole cost of the rescue was 20 million dollars, which is not much for "propaganda purposes". I do agree that authorities in a way tried to appear on TV as much as possible, but keep in consideration that from the beginning this was an impossible mission

[gonzalo060375]

Wanna hear some truth? Copper is the bread of Chile. You pick the oz. price a bit and you got a horde of frenzy entreprenenurs willing to dig with bare hands copper mines. The last governments were unefficient in enforcing safety codes, so pirate mines multiplied, and probably some money ran under the table to snub some Gov. officers about safety claims.

The Chilean Gov. is leaded by a businessman, a salesman, he's just doing what he knows best. If it brings up foreign investment, who cares?

[simontimon2]

Oh shut up, if it wheren't for these corperation there wouldn't be computers for you to bitch about it.

[drzeus7x]

toda la razon...... piñera ql!

[ufkrec]

Fue un verdadero fraude fue un montaje los mineros jamas alegaron por las condiciones de trabajo y que salieron maquillados peinados y perfumados de esa cueva obvio que aca se esta aplicando la doctrina del shock colectivo a travez de los medios y los imbeciles telespectadores se olvidan de la cagaa que tienen con el terremoto de los 50 mil millones que juntaron para la teleton y se lo robaron todo de la crisis con el pueblo mapuche y los sueldos miserables que dan en este pais!!!!

[bde12000]

come on, tell me something new, I knew it.

[bde12000]

what is the truth of your face?, that's funny you seem like Aldo Schiappacasse

[smokindnd]

yo trabajo en ingeneria aqui en chile en poyectos mineros. y tengo que decir que este gringo se cree inteligente pero habla weas sin saber. no estoy con la intencion de defender al gob. ni a las corporaciones. sino al la calidad de la mineria aqui en chile. La mineria en chile esta muy avanzada. claro siempre hay gente turbia.. pero casi todo se hace con la mas alta seguridad y con mucha consideracion al medjio ambiente, especialmente en proyectos grandes, esta era una mina chica y obsoleta.

[gonzalo060375]

@smokindnd El punto es que muchos americanos piensan de nosotros (Chilenos y Sudamericanos en gral.) como monkeys viviendo en árboles. Es como preguntar en Santiago qué opinan de Teherán, Iran. Más de alguno te dirá que hay pura gente en camellos y con metralletas, jaja.

[alphadraconis666]

gringos weones no tienen idea los csm ¬¬

[25ULRY]

Como estos gringos nos estafaron en la ida a la luna, que nunca fueron, piensan que esto tambien es un fraude , que pena, en todo caso que  un ladrón siempre creen que le estan robando . Yo no haría caso a la insidia y mala intención.

[feerro]

un gringo mongólico que busca conspiracion en todos lados.... GENTE COMO TU HIJO DE PUTA EL MUNDO ESTÁ COMO ESTÁ. lo unico que considero que es fáctible es que sí. Hubo negligencia de darle permiso (geomin) a esa mina de ser sobre-explotada. Pero eso sucedió porque hubo dinero bajo la mesa para las firmas. Menos mál que todo finalizó sin pérdidas humanas.

BYE GRINGO MONGÖLICO. down down down...

[leminoufou77]

One more thing (as I am pretty sure I am wasting typing efforts here), I watched BBC (and stayed away from CNN as much as possible). I guess the channel watched might have had a great influence on how the story was received too. (I've made some typing mistakes there; my apologies to better English speakers)

[leminoufou77]

Also the Chilean media deploy there was impressive and was directed to impress. And they succeeded too. BBC were close to envious on the images the national television provided. Well, at least the political goals expressed, were really good goals and if the country will profit from this, than it is nothing but good propaganda.

[leminoufou77]

And the last, of course they used this for political purpose. This is the name of he game today, isn't it? As American you should know better. But please keep in mind some of the points they tried to make. They want to get over the image of an ex-dictatorial past (nobody pointed it, but was a situation externally imposed by USA government). And why they want this? Because they were before that a very respectfully democracy with a long tradition and with European orientation.

[leminoufou77]

Regarding governmental reaction, the person overseeing that rescue is a master of organization, a great professional, a national hero. Same goes for his team. They make one being proud of being Chilean; I would be.

About the national pathos, I will just say, I was in Chile, they are 100 percent proud of being Chileans. What you saw on TV in this direction is just how they are, no mystification there.

[leminoufou77]

Second I will like to point some stuff here.

One as a person coming from a mining region, mining is a dangerous business and miners are aware of it. This comes with solidarity which can rarely be seen in other domains. That is way if one miner (not 33) remains trapped underground, the fellow miners and the community will do all efforts and will make their voice heard until that guy is out (and I must point here, alive or dead). Government has to react.

[leminoufou77]

Well, first I will have to agree to some of the voices around that you do seem sick.

[mrfango]

its sound like bush set the tradegy of the twin tower to hide the race to get the oil from irak. and produce more hate toward to middle east.

man you got no idea this miners were traped before president sebastian pinera take the place as a president of chile

[bigbawser]

the chilean presidents speeches sounded like an election broadcast.(dont let a good crisis go to waste).Those miners were exploited and continue to be exploited by corporations, government, and the elite rich.its all a distraction folks.

[neostar987]

obvio que todo fue propaganda...(?)

como los gringos poco y nada se metieron en la situación.... ¬¬°

igual que el pastel de cnn... dijo que NO HUBO TECNOLOGÍA en todo el procedimiento... U_U

que personas más ególatras....

[uspimpclub]

@neostar987 , are you serious ? I think its been on television for more then a month ,,and I dont know anything about the situation ? I love the people from Chili by good friend is from Chili we have been friends for 10 years ,, but mines are not supposed to collapse everyday and kill people ,, do you think that mining company really gives a damn about the Chilean people ? I have nothing against the people get that through your head ,, just the corrupt corporation and the injustice

[jonathanmoreno1000]

@neostar987 y si no fue por los americanos que tu tiiene hodio por nosotros tada via ellos astaba ayi abaho,quen ayuda todos nuestros americano dios bendiga a los estados unidos!y si algo mal pasa a ustedes quen va venir los amerinos verdad!

[PATAGONIALOOP]

Este weon en Chile se muere de hambre , solo es un grengo ignorante...jajaja...aweonaooo­oooooooo, creo tiene una cara algo enfermiza, como de grengo imbecil o retardado.

[PATAGONIALOOP]

@uspimpclub you sound like a paranoid person, those who believe that the one dollar bill is a reptilian, those people who think they see terrorists and bin laden in all places, you sound like a Grengo do not see the good things that happen beyond its borders ...you know nothing of Chile, to make a journalistic note, I recommend you learn, first documented.

[PATAGONIALOOP]

@PATAGONIALOOP I think your mistake is to see with eyes too Grengo!

[BITARTEN]

Maybe you are right. Thanks!

[guilleman9]

Yes it is propaganda

Si es propaganda...

siempre mueren mineros y nadie los ve ni les hacen caso ni los apoyan ni les importan, despues del terrible terremoto, esto viene a ser un WIND BREAKER para los politicos desgraciados de Chile.

Estoy feliz por el rescate. Pero aprovechar esto para hacerse publicidad es algo asqueroso, they dont care about the people they care about the stock price, they care about their control of the masses. educate yourself before falling in this kind of entertainment.

[PATAGONIALOOP]

@guilleman9 you talk about propaganda and you have favorite videoson Chavez and Iranian fundamentalists,jajaja... I think you are:"Meando fuera del tiesto" .... people like you is to laugh ... ignorance will corrode and his words are bitter.

[PATAGONIALOOP]

@guilleman9 LA VERDAD HABLAS SOLO IDOTECES...Y ERES TU CON TUS COMENTARIOS Y TUS VIDEOS FAVORITOS QUE DEMUESTRAS UNA INTOLERANCIA PROPIA DE FUNDAMENTALISTAS, VIVE FELIZ , LA VERDAD ME INTERESAS BIEN POCO. ANDA A DAR LECCIONES DE FILOSOFIA BARATA A LA GENTE IGNORANTE Y FALTA DE VALORES,ESPIRITU Y CULTURA. TU ERES COMO EL TUERTO EN EL PAIS DE LOS CIEGOS. BYE BYE,.-

[PATAGONIALOOP]

@guilleman9 OTRA COSA , TIENES EL SINDROME DEL PERIODISTA PARANOICO, VES COSAS DONDE NO LAS HAY Y NO VES LAS QUE REALMENTE HAY. SINO CREES EN LAS NOTICIAS DE QUE ESTAMOS HABLANDO , SI SON SOLO ESO NOTICIAS...ESCUCHASTE ALGUNA VEZ LA PALABRA "REFERENTE" FUENTE O INTERFASE. XD.-

[MrAlbertom]

Please, get your self a little bit of respect before talk about other country issues. Look for yours instead!

From Wikipedia:

>>

Since 2000, an average of 34 people have died every year in mining accidents in Chile, with a high of 43 in 2008, according to a review of data collected by the state regulatory agency Servicio Nacional de Geología y Minería de Chile (SERNAGEOMIN).

The mine is owned by Compañía Minera San Estéban (San Esteban Mining Company), which has a poor safety record and has suffered a series of mishaps, with several workers being killed in recent years. Between 2004 and 2010, the co

[PATAGONIALOOP]

There are a lot of comments based on ignorance, the president did not take advantage of the situation politically, everything was serious, political right and left Chile were united, this is Chile, joins dificles things because we are very few people but we have a big heart, chile is an island country in South America.

[deanphilpot]

Yesterday was the anniversary of the original Friday the 13th, the day the Knights Templar were killed by the Pope.

Think about 33 men were pulled out a hellhole on 10-13-2010.

Everybody watched on TV-many for countless hours.

Everybody was thrilled about the rescue and felt good.

All the while, we descend to a hellhole of our own.

And in New Hampshire a newborn was raped.

God help us, were in hell while everybody watches their big screen television.

[StokesDaddy]

@deanphilpot I knew somebody would take it there, to that GOD DAMN Illuminati bullshit. The goverment did know about this, the corporations knew, Now I hope they do something about it. if they dont, then it will happen again. But comon, cant we celebrate that there safe. I mean shit. People come th FUCK ON GOD DAMN, this is why the world is going to hell. Because of people like this guy in the video, and the comments made on here. It's beyond ignorance, It's fucking deserving of death

[cataclavero]

actually the miners do profit (1400 dolars per month). 5 times the minimal wage of Chile

The government it's guilty of not doing the proper fiscalization. The same week of the accident. the government closed 70 mines for security issues.

This is a private company, the government have no direct responsability of lead the rescue efforts. Piñera took the decision, against the advice of his ministers. They took a huge political risk (with 2% survival expectancy, it was a granted political suicide)

[MishuTaste]

I didn't see it as propaganda. But I do think the Chilean president (Sebastian Pinera) took advantage of the situation to get some political points. Perhaps he'll need them in the next election.

[valhala56]

Lindsay Lohan is a distraction. This was 33 miners trapped the longest and deepest underground ever and everyone made it out alive. The Chilean Goverment made sure there was safety equipement that saved every single miner at the time of the collapse. The Chilean Goverment brought in help and equipement from all over the world. The Chilean Gov did not coverup anything like BP, They were honest & told em it would be 3 months, it took a little over 2 months & every single Miner made it out Alive.

[valhala56]

I don't see Chile involved in wars in foreign countries,I don't see Chile sending young men and women to die in Afghanistan to protect the profits of Haliburton and the Wall street Banks and the Military/Industrial complex. I don't see the US Goverment concerned about the safety of food in the Gulf of Mexico.

I don't think the Miners were slaves or forced to work in the mine. I see a Goverment that went all out to rescue the Miners whatever the cost. I only wish our gov thougt as much of us.

[valhala56]

Right now I'm thinking the People of Chile and argentina & a lot of South America are treated better by their Goverments then the peasants and that is what they have reduced us to here in this country. In the US, the Goverment is jacking up taxes, doing little about people being foreclosed on, cutting people off from Unemployment & healthcare. It gets worse here every day while in South America the people are treated with more dignity and respect then we are by our so called elected leaders.

[valhala56]

Did the Chilean Goverment use this as Propaganda ie Good PR? Probaly. On the other hand at least the Chilean President and his wife were present at the scene. I'm not so sure our President or Politicians would take time out of their busy schedules to do the same thing if it happened here.

Compare this to the BP or Katrina where the people were screwed to this Chilean operation where no expense was spared on the Rescue. I'm not sure our Goverment or Corporations would do the same thing here.

[DigitalSkyline]

It was a big production, see how the government can save you lol. It was Chile, their 15 minutes of fame... a perfect distraction for the msm to latch on to.

[CrisVangel]

My Chileno lover says you're nuts..

[jenniferashley99]

kids go down there and usually die around 30 from black lungs. It's widely known about those mines and how the miners lack the proper equipments.

[DoctorOblivion1]

Well stated!

[astebeck]

Are you in drugs??

[Arkanus01]

are you high?

[hypnofan35]

i know... i've worked worse killer jobs than that one. It's the working man's fate to have to lay his being out there. i almost died a few times from working. This rescue turned into an event. It had an excellent final result. It made me proud of being part Chilean. (i wasn't before, but i am now) . We can get accustomed to alot of stuff. If you can work there that long of a time without getting killed, then it is actually a pretty good labor job.

[TheDouche10]

something is going on and i mean some kind of conspiracy(oh yea i can hear some of u know: oh ur ust 1 of those illuminati belivers...noo) there was mine callapse in verginia and none help not even nasa but they helped chie why not our own naion can help each other something is happening ......

[irichard]

thumbs up

[orange70383]

Oh they also commented on the sunglasses the miners had on when they reached the surface saying "it must have something to do with them being closer to the equator the suns rays are really bright down there I bet"

[Kinggeorge720]

PIMP IS SPEAKING TRUTH TO POWER... KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!

[garridoxsman]

que fumaste viejo...relajate.

[orange70383]

This morning our local news were some real scholars, they covered the rescue live and here's a quote from their commentary. " now when you see the rope coming up out of the rescue hole it means they are bringing another miner up to safety and away from where they were trapped alive" I wished I could have called in and said --- slow down a minute here, so your saying when the rope is coming up from the mine that means they are taking a rescued miners back down the hole, am Iright ???

[MsMilkytheclown]

I forgot to add the thumbs up so I had to return to do that.

[MsMilkytheclown]

did you notice when the guy who was liked Bob Marley, CNN played a bob marley song: "stolen from Africa, brought to America:!" How is that for a tribute to Chile?! Maximus WOWus! Amazing... right before your face and yet so still asleep....

[Tonytime1]

What do you mean that the corporations do not care about me and you?! They provide us with jobs right?! Hey! Seriously, I appreciate your videos and am very glad that the minors were rescued! God Bless em! Have a great day my friend!

[etuHad4]

bet money if they would have found the miners and no one know about it.. they would have let them die!!!
