Castillo said no one, not even presidents and Cabinet ministers, is allowed without authorization where the activists trod, and those who do have permission must wear special shoes.The Nazca lines are huge figures depicting living creatures, stylized plants and imaginary figures scratched on the surface of the ground between 1,500 and 2,000 years ago. They are believed to have had ritual astronomical functions.

Would have been funny if they scratched a cartoon image of Obama in it.

As usual, fringe lunatic liberals believe the rules only apply to everyone else.

Motivated by their religion to destroy an irreplaceable historical site.

Who needs the Taliban when you’ve got libtards?

Is this a hoax? If not, it’s a criminal act.

Since they screwed up the site, even id minimally, take advantage of it. Stake them to the desert floor to serve out their sentence.

Having been followed through the Mohave by ALF types and had my pic appear on their ‘wanted’ posters, I can tell folks that Eco nuts are not simply deluded bunny huggers. They are dangerous, evil, and should be dealt with as such. these are mentally unbalanced people that place dirt in a superior position to humanity. Very literally so. Do not play games with such people.

This act was way over the top, even for the most liberal of bastards. Greenpeace is about to get eaten alive by their own kind. How truly funny.

The Peruvians should take some lessons from the Russians on how to handle these GreenVandals.

As far as I know they haven’t bothered any Russian drilling rigs since they got some adult treatment.

allegedly damaged the lines by leaving footprints in the adjacent desert.

Ah, I see the Peruvians are fighting stupidity with idiocy. Well, if it hurts Greenpuke I'm all for it anyway.

But those lines have been around for millenia, so they can't be all that delicate. And the adjacent desert? Who cares.
