The rest of their 'coverage' is also inaccurate, in fact, listening to the terminology used in the reports, it makes me sad to see how much everything in Ireland has been taken in by U.S. influence.
Long Live Lee!
DOWN! DOWN! WTO.
where did you come by this information?
Did he travel to Cancun to ask for subsidies?
was he some equivalent of an Irish farmer on a tractor approaching Dail Eirinn? Was he given a package of figures and statistice before hand:
"This is what is available".
"You'll get no more than this".
Do you _seriously_ believe he only wanted a "subsidy", oh how terribly old fashioned of him.
How out of synch with the market and the modern work place, How unlike the nice middle class man he appears to be.
So I thought to leave you the photo of another farmer. He doesn't look middle class, so far as we know he isn't dead yet.
He's protesting against the WTO as well.
MAybe he doesn't get enough subsidies or something.
working class farmer not looking for subsidies probably anti-capitalist or something at Cancun WTO 2003 Sept 11.
Apparently this Korean farmer who killed himself wanted more subsidies for farmers. Not subsidies for poor farmers in Kenya, Cambodia, Columbia or Mexico but relatively well off farmers in South Korea! How does killing himself help his family back home?
how many will there be?

the autopsy has not returned a suicide or accidental death verdict. Nor was any note produced. Nor was the murdered known to have been suffering from any form of depression.
Please do not try and manipulate this death.
Enough of our deaths have been manipulated.
Which is why we no longer even treat upon your catayclsmic terrorist event.
BASTA!
But not to be encouraged.
How bad are things when it comes to this?
Lee Kyung - heroism & personal sacrifice that is undescribeable.
We must all do what we can & double our efforts.
