Hundreds of Honduran Farmworkers Seize Land from Large Landowners

Thousands of rural workers in Honduras have occupied land as part of a dispute with large landowners and the government.

The coordinated invasions took place in several locations across the country, activists and officials say.

Farmers groups say the areas taken over are public lands where poor farmers have the right to grow food under Honduran law.

The government said the seizures were illegal and targeted private holdings.

The director of the National Agrarian Institute, Pedro Ham, said the coordinated occupations were politically motivated and aimed at destabilising the government of President Porfirio Lobo.

Violent disputes over farmland are common in Honduras, with dozens of rural workers killed in recent years.

Organisations representing rural workers say successive governments have failed to fulfil promises to distribute farmland using agrarian reform legislation.

They also accuse the authorities of acting in the interests of large landowners.

Destroy the land monopoly!  Solidarity with the people of Honduras!

By the way, even propertarians ought to show solidarity here.  See this passage on the land monopoly from Rothbard’s “The Ethics of Liberty.”  

We were just talking about revolutions in my Latin American History Class.  Talking about the redistribution of Land in Guatemala from the United Fruit Company, and how they got the CIA to take over the country and install a dictator b/c they lost some land….that made me mad…this makes be happy.
