Dom Phillips, a journalist, and Bruno Pereira, a tribal tragedy, express the threat of bankruptcy of the Brazilian state on the Amazon scale.

Evidence of anarchy and state dissent remains in the governance of a region that corresponds to 59% of the national territory.

The institutional network was created from the colonial period to share the visibility of Brazil’s sovereignty in the Amazon rainforest, which was shared with eight neighboring countries, it was an indefinite construction.

It is being destroyed by the spread of the “general emancipation” consciousness through land grabbing, drug trafficking, illegal exploitation and smuggling of timber, animal, plant and mineral species – mainly gold and cassitrite.

A common feature of failed states is the inability of governments to maintain control over territory.

It is an exaggeration to say that Brazil was built on this bankruptcy structure under Zaire Bolsonaro. However, the signs of progress in this direction are manifold.

A large informal market developed in the north of Brazil under the high crime rate and the rare performance of state institutions, including the presence of armed groups, militias and drug traffickers.

In government, in Congress, and in the judiciary, it is not approved, but they already have control over the 4,000-kilometer core area that separates the Atlantic ports of the Atlantic, marking the borders with Bolivia, Peru, Colombia, and Venezuela. , Maranhao and Pacem, Ciara.

For years, police and armed forces have been collecting evidence of the operational and financial rise of the national mafia in the Amazon, in collaboration with European, American, Mexican and Colombian drug traffickers Transnational and their Narco Guerrilla Guards.

When a federal judge has to issue a continuous order to the federal government to “immediately enforce the obligation to do so,” that is, to take the necessary steps to identify the two individuals in the “threat of violent attack” area.

Manaus judge Jaiza Frax, journalist Phillips, and tribal Pereira went out of their way to repeatedly summon the government to work on the investigation.

He was forced to order the National Indian Foundation (Funai) to remove an official statement from its website, blaming the victims, echoing Bolsonaro and any other “attack on the dignity of the missing”.

He also instructed Funai to refrain from any action that could lead to “unjust persecution” of journalists and aborigines who go to his court to demand their lives – in particular, the Union of Indigenous Peoples of Valle do Xavier (Univaza) and the Servants. Local coordination of Funai.

In Brasilia, when a federal Supreme Court judge drew a dramatic portrait of the 29-word understanding imposed on the country by a crippled bureaucracy, some were out of discipline: “I am disappointed by the fact that the Brazilian armed forces . “

Judge Luis Roberto Barroso wrote this in an order issued in June last year, in a court case that told the story of the Supreme Court’s one-year ruling for the Bolsonaro government to abide by the constitution, which guarantees life, health and safety. Indian. Amazonian Yanomami and Munduruku.

The lawsuit was settled out of court in June 2020, when tribesmen petitioned the Supreme Court to force the government to provide their public health services in the midst of an epidemic.

Almost nothing has been done and, in the ensuing months, prospectors, loggers and their financiers have intensified attacks on indigenous lands, including constitutionally recognized territories as an integral, unavailable resource of the Union, with indigenous rights.

Gold-rich, Yanomami (Roraima) and Munduruku (Para) reserves have become targets of commercially organized illegal mining, using heavy and expensive equipment, characterized by a complex logistical network of supplies (land, air and river). Similar to a medium-sized mining enterprise.

Evidence of the presence of drug-trafficking groups, such as the First Command of the Capital (PCC), among others, under the patronage of illegal gold mining, the supply of Garimpero, and the control of major river shipping routes. Domestic reserves have multiplied.

The STF has ordered armed protection. The Ministry of Defense responded with bureaucratic resilience: “In this regard, the Joint Chiefs of Staff stated that it is waiting for the availability of extraordinary resources (…).

In other words, then-Minister Walter Braga Neto warned that he had failed to identify the minimum amount needed to provide logistical support to the federal police in an operation determined by the Supreme Court in his billionaire budget (R $ 8.4 billion) to “prevent tribal genocide.”

Disappointment remains.
