As early as 2007, US government was shipping weapons to Santa Cruz in Bolivia. Ambassador Goldberg wrote about it. This whole affair seems shady. This guy they were "shipping" weapons to hid it behind his house?

US government was already sending opposition prefect money. In 2006, THEY INCREASED it.

Btw... now, I put a QR code that takes you to my sources so its easier for you to figure it out.

What is the US consulting firm used by former President Gonzalo Sanchez the Lozada in his 2002 consulting campaign?

(Whoever finds the answer will get a free gift from me)

Just to understand the kind of people the US ambassador was colluding with:
Ruben Costas has called Hugo Chavez a "monkey" and said that first nations from the andes are "dumb donkeys"

Apparently, the US government is shipped weapons in shipment labeled "agricultural products"

Look at the way NBC news covers an extremination campaign by literal Nazis.

This is February 2006. Why the bleed is EVERYONE MEETING WITH THESE FASCISTS?

CIA uses Nazis to help create an international narcotrafficking ring... so what else is new?

Look at the the comfort with the fashy elements.

Also... I wonder... what kind of "sophisticated" think tank got established.

US evangelical need to be defanged before they destroy the world.

Ambassador of ethnic cleansing...very good read https://angrywhitekid.blogs.com/weblog/2008/09/george-bush-sent-to-bolivia-his-ambassador-of-ethnic-cleansing.html

George Bush sent to Bolivia his Ambassador of Ethnic Cleansing

My translation of an article by Bolivian journalist Wilson Garcia Merida about the recently-expelled US ambassador to Bolivia, Philip Goldberg. Though originally published in January 2007, it...

US spent $97M to create an ethostate in Bolivia?

Wow...US is extremely bad at interfering in elections

Now, Ruben Costas the governor of the Department of Santa Cruz. He is the first one to call an emergency about the forest fire in La Chiquitania on August 14.

There is a cable where the state department sent a memo saying "this is coup money"

One Nation, under G.O.D.

G.O.D. = Guns, Oil and Drugs.

That's cause it's true!

I have no idea why US state department officials feel so insulted when people mention the truth!

But, they seem to whine a lot about it!

Citizen's assembly is about as Democratic as you can get. Also, "parameters" sound rather limiting of democracy.

These people do double think.

https://wikileaks.org/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ96_a.html

This guy literally talked about fomenting a coup in one of the earlier paragraphs.

Now he calls imperialism mythical.

Also... Typo! He meant "versus" not "vice"

Doctors and teachers in rural areas worries the USG.

"Stop unfairly demonizing me" says the demon.

Dunning-Krüger on full effect from the team that crashed the global economy and led to the worst economic crisis since the great depression

Imagine how demented you have to be to write that the poorest of the poors are trying to bully someone.

For those who commit genocide, you'd think they would be able to handle a slight bit of mean words!

WTF?
https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ179_a.html

Look at the kind of horrible people that the US embassy regularly and casually hung out with

That's a weird lens from which they look at. It's an olive branch and a sign of hospitality!

US Ambassador accuses Morales of rigging the constituency assembly by....... winning very handily in a fair, Democratic election!

https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ336_a.html

Before Morales, apparently a lot of western people became rich "consulting" with the Government.
https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ406_a.html

The hubris of these dudes who, in less than one year from this cable, will crash the entire global economy is very irritating.

A government's job isn't to discuss with businesses. It's to regulate them!

Here is a government properly doing its job!

Why is the ambassador speaking to randos behind Morales back?

https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ600_a.html

Democracy is under threat because the government is...
*check notes*
giving everyone an ID card and registering them to vote so that EVERYONE can participate!

Here they complain about two Venezuelans buying a lot of stuff at random shops and being chatty.

They call this "indoctrination"

These sanctimonious pricks!

On April 18, 2006, the right wing in Puerto Suarez, Santa Cruz take 3 Bolivian ministers hostage.

I looked through New York Times.. Tried as many searches as possible... and I found no coverage of such thing!

None!

In response to taking 3 ministers HOSTAGE, Bolivia expelled EBX. Look at how the New York Times covered that: https://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/03/world/americas/03bolivia.html

Bolivia's Energy Takeover: Populism Rules in the Andes (Published 2006)

Bolivia's nationalization of its energy industry shows that populist policies, championed most prominently by Venezuela, are spreading.

https://www.nytimes.com/2006/05/03/world/americas/03bolivia.html

Probably because the Brazilian company TOOK THREE MINISTERS HOSTAGE!
https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ1530_a.html

I,too, frequently confuse 45 caliber bullets with cheese.

Here is the ambassador in his "I'm not mad" and "I am totally not unhinged" as he writes this very *normal* piece in the diplomatic cable!

It's a hilarious shapiro-like meltdown! Worth the read

An assembly proportional to population is tyranny! A gerrymandered assembly that gives elites too much representation is freedom

Don't doctors from all country have to work "overtly" if they are trying to treat patients?

Does he admit that doctors from America work "covertly" ie perform illegal medical experimentation on people?

Well AKTUALLY, POC are the real racists... this is reverse racism! https://wikileaks.com/plusd/cables/06LAPAZ2576_a.html

I'm not racist, but because Evo Morales called me "neoliberal", I want to start a civil war and establish an ethnostate.

Message from US ambassador to Bolivia on UCJ. Not a joke!

The opposition pushed this man and he ended up in a coma and they call MAS heavy-handed?
