    I did some websearching and didn’t find any thing about this. Do you have any source for this?

        I found that in my websearch but assumed you were talking about something else, because that wiki page doesn’t say anything about what’s written in the meme post, in fact wiki directly contradicts much of the meme claims.

        The tribe wasn’t an uncontacted tribe.

        Nothing written about women being kidnapped.

        Nothing written about the purpose of a kidnapping (since no kidnapping of women is even mentioned).

        And it does specifically say why peru dropped bombs, which is not about women kidnapping.

          The tribe wasn’t an uncontacted tribe.

          The Matsés had developed many survival techniques to avoid being detected by settlers, such as teaching their dogs not to bark when ordered, cultivating small farms in different hidden parts of the forest, and establishing shorter periods of itinerant agriculture

          Nothing about women being kidnapped.

          It mentions the ambush, it just doesn’t specify the details.

          In October 1964 in Requena province, in the east of Loreto, Peruvian lumberjacks and colonists were ambushed by a group of Matsés.

    I mean, I doubt they kidnapped specifically women with plans of bringing them equal rights and access to education. Napalm isn’t that far of a stretch from justice.

      As in the title, I ain’t sayin’ there shouldn’t have been a response, even a military response. But maybe, uh, translators or more precise operations might have been preferable?
