Recent photos of an "uncontacted tribe" of Indians near the Brazil-Peru border have sparked media reports of a hoax, but the organization that released the images defends its claims and actions.
The photographs, which showed men painted red and black and aiming arrows skyward, were released in late May by Survival International, a London-based organization that advocates for tribal people worldwide. The release stated that "members of one of the world's last uncontacted tribes have been spotted and photographed from the air,"

How does someone deduce that they have contacted the LAST uncontacted tribe. Do we now know what we don’t know?

You got that one correct. I’m sure ACORN has contacted them!
On the other hand, if they truly are an “uncontacted” people, do you think the civilized world might, for once, do the right thing and leave them alone?

Why would that be the right thing?Indeed. Get them into our society, trading stocks.
Certainly can't do a worse job of it than my broker.

Life expectancy in a tribe like this is often 35 years or less and are very brutal, expecially to those who can't fight to defend themselves. Civilized society cooperates so that we can ALL have better lives. The right thing to do is to invite them to join civilized society and to defend the human rights of individuals who wish to do so.
Typically, the people who want to maintain the isolation are the ones who control and brutalize the others. (i.e. Same as the socialist/communist model.)
