ordered the Ecuadorean government to protect Leonide Iza, leader of CONAIE 
from the threats of assault and assasination being made due to his 
opposition to extending, or maintaining, the concessions to the 
mine/petroleum companies.  Responded Ecuador's then Minister of Energy and 
Mines, "The OAS doesn't give orders here."

Correa is continuing a grand tradition, one that dates back to the conquest, 
the peninsulares, the criollas, the mita, the encomienda, the huasipungo.

Anyway, I wrote a 10 piece study of Ecuador back in 05-06-- it's on the 
blog-- just put Ecuador in the search box.
