Some US citizens who get it…

….and who are out to make sure a certain deeply despised Bolivian ex-president feels it:

“Goni: Human rights abuser fleeing justice in Chevy Chase”

anti-goni-demo2.jpg

“The US harbors terrorists”

anti-goni-demo3.jpg

“Human rights abuser living in Chevy Chase”; “…do you feel safer?”

anti-goni-demo4.jpg

“Goni be gone!”

Looks like they might get their wish, too. Thomas Shannon, the US Undersecretary of State (for Western Hemispheric affairs) was in Bolivia today, talking with Evo up close and personal. One of the topics that came up was–drumroll please–the prospect of extraditing Gonzalo Sánchez de Lozada, so that he can face trial for the murder of 63 Bolivian protesters in person (instead of in absentia as is the case right now).

Does this mark a sea change in the US’s stance on Bolivia? Let’s hope it does.

PS: Otto reports that Branko Marinkovic is feeling a little, um, downhearted. Maybe he met with Shannon too–and got the bad news that Obama-ma doesn’t intend to support him in his little fascist crusade to take Santa Cruz back from the uppity Injuns?

ALBA to get another joiner?

Could be…could be El Salvador!

chavecito-funes.jpg

Awwwww…don’t they look cute together, Chavecito and Mauricio Funes, getting along so nicely? Looks like they might soon get along a whole lot MORE nicely, if this is any indication…

Mauricio Funes, the president-elect of El Salvador, made a formal visit to Venezuela to meet with President Hugo Chavez on Tuesday. In a meeting that lasted more than five hours, the two leaders discussed deepening cooperation between the two countries, especially regarding oil.

[…]

After the meeting, the two leaders announced the creation of a bilateral commission between the two countries to develop projects of cooperation in commerce, energy, and other economic sectors, and social exchange.

Funes said his government will prioritize the poor, “the vulnerable, the destitute… those without voice… who need the new government to represent them,” and declared that his country will continue to receive Venezuela’s cooperation to develop health programs and social projects.

“…will continue to receive Venezuela’s cooperation to develop health programs and social projects.”

You mean they’re receiving it ALREADY? Holy fucking shit, the Axis of Evo is already at work in Central America…HELPING CENTRAL AMERICANS! Oh, the HORROR!

But wait, it gets even scarier…

Another key point of discussion was oil, where the two leaders discussed the possibility of the El Salvadoran state importing it, rather than mayors.

In April 2006 the Venezuelan government signed an agreement with the Inter-Municipal Association of Energy for El Salvador (ENEPASA), an association of 20 FMLN mayors, to start a joint company which would provide oil cheaply to El Salvador. Now, Funes said El Salvador will consider joining the Petrocaribe program through which Venezuela provides oil at below market prices to participating Caribbean countries.

Funes also raised the idea of Venezuela buying more of its raw materials. “Venezuela buys a good part of its agricultural raw materials from Colombia and could instead buy it from El Salvador,” he said.

Holy effin’ crap, they also have an OIL FOR FOOD PROGRAM! Ye Gods and little fishes, that’s TRADE! What else have they got going on?

To Chavez, Funes said, “I passionately salute this sentiment of solidarity that you represent and which for the Salvadoran situation has meant important support in two fundamental areas. First, with petroleum, to the extent that we are a country, as are many in Central America, which doesn’t have an essential resource on which to build our economy, like petroleum. Secondly, with health aid, the cooperation that the noble people of Venezuela have given us through [the free eye treatment program] Mission Milagro.”

Funes said he was visiting Venezuela to “encourage [Chavez] to continue with this spirit of solidarity because only solidarity and the spirit of Latin American unity that is behind it, is going to make the transformation of our nations possible.”

Frackin’ holy mackerel! SOLIDARITY! Free eye care! Why, I bet the Cubans are in on that. That’s COMMUNISM! Holy shit, the Reds have eaten Central America, one eyeball at a time! And this under the nose of Gringolandia. OH NOES!!!

Okay, time to quit hyperventilating. All this co-operation happens also to include somebody else. Guess who? Back to the top of the Venezuelanalysis piece we go…

Funes’s critics have said his presidency will be heavily influenced by Venezuela, while Funes has emphasized that “integration with Central America and strengthening relations with the United States will be the priority of our foreign policy.”

Gasp. You mean they plan on getting along with the gringos AND the socialistas? And worse, they plan on integrating with their fellow Central Americans (and by extension, Latin Americans)? Are such things even possible?

Well hell YES, they ARE. Provided, of course, that the State Dept. doesn’t put its foot in it and fuck things up. Didja hear that, spooks? I’m talking to you directly now. I said don’t fuck it up. If Central America can get along with Cuba and Venezuela, you can bloody well suck it up and admit that you’ve had things very wrong for the last fifty years (and more). It’s high time you got it right–Venezuela and El Salvador are definitely trying to do just that. Time to do with them what they’re doing with each other–TALK.

And leave the gunboats at home from now on, capisce?

Bolivia terror plot: A new ringleader fingered, plus more members come to light

szekler-legion.jpg

Just like a bad penny, some nasties (like the Szekler Legion, screengrabbed above) keep coming back…and yes, there are Irish and Corrib project crests on that page. Hmm, whatever could it mean?

I’ve been meaning to translate this item for a few days, and just now got around to it:

A Hungarian, Tibor Revesz, has been fingered as head of the suspected terrorist cell broken up last month in Santa Cruz, Bolivia. Revesz is believed to have had more power than the Bolivian-Croatian-Hungarian Eduardo Rózsa Flores, according to revelations by an opposition deputy, Bernardo Montenegro, of the Podemos party.

“According to the information we have, Tibor Revesz was the head and organizer of this group. Not only here, but in his own country, he had knowledge of the organization of irregular groups,” Montenegro told the Special Commission of the Chamber of Deputies, which is investigating the case.

Montenegro revealed that this new element came from the declarations of the Bolivian, Mario Tadic, and the Hungarian, Elöd Tóásó, survivors of the police operation that killed three other assassins last April 16 in the Hotel Las Américas in Santa Cruz. The two prisoners are currently incarcerated in La Paz.

The congressman said that Revesz had been in Bolivia throughout the first stage of the formation of the irregular group, and that for some as yet unknown reason he left the country and left behind five persons, three of them later killed: Eduardo Rózsa, Michael Martin Dwyer (of Ireland), and Arpád Magyarosi (of Hungary), as well as the two detainees, Tadic and Tóásó.

“There definitely were not only these five persons in this irregular group. There were other persons who came to Bolivia, such as the Hungarians Revesz, Gabor Dudog, and a man named [Daniel] Gaspar. Tadic said that at one time, he heard someone say to Mr. Rózsa that it was cheaper to buy two bullets than to pay for travel tickets,” said Montenegro.

According to Montenegro, Revesz is in Hungary, for which reason Tóásó fears for his family. Revesz has an extensive criminal record when it comes to forming irregular (i.e. terrorist) groups.

“He is a person very much connected to irregular groups. He is believed to have been the mentor to various irregular movements and apparently came to Bolivia and began to form this group. One of the hypotheses is that he was in charge of this cell, above Rózsa,” Montenegro said.

I’ve done the Googly Moogly on Tibor Revesz, and here’s what I found:

  • He was with Mike Dwyer in Ireland, and is suspected of having recruited him when both worked as security goons for I-RMS, the private-security contractor for Shell Oil. They worked together on the controversial Corrib gas line project. He is now suspected of having been the unnamed “mutual friend” who hooked Dwyer up with Rózsa and travelled with Dwyer from Ireland to Bolivia, only to return later on.
  • Revesz is also known as “Photosniper” and is believed to be a member of the infamous Szekler Legion. His résumé is chock-a-block with “security” activities that would also be of benefit to a would-be mercenary…or terrorist. His profile definitely matches that of the unnamed “32-year-old Hungarian” who travelled with Dwyer to Bolivia.
  • This Hungarian blogger has heard reports that Revesz was arrested. So far, I haven’t found further details. I would welcome more, if anyone knows.

The other “new” Hungarian name on this blog’s radar, Gabor Dudog, also worked “since January” for a security company in Ireland. Hmmm, also for Shell? His mother, predictably, claims he “didn’t do anything wrong”. Now, where have we heard that before? BTW, Indymedia Ireland is doing terrific research on this case, check it out.

According to the Hungarian ambassador to Bolivia, Dudog and Daniel Gaspar (the other “new” name) have already left the country. No explanation, but if they have ties to this unsavory bunch, none is really needed. They are wanted for questioning (at the very least) by Bolivian authorities, so I foresee an extradition hearing. Play nice, Hungary!

Meanwhile, there’s a real effort to paint Elöd Tóásó as a poor suffering innocent, here. There’s also a “defense fund” and petition, which I hope won’t find many contributors. I don’t buy any of this “oh, but he’s innocent and a hero” crap–I’ve blogged the cellphone video indicating him as being involved in the conspiracy up to his eyeballs. Not to mention I have the pic of him with the big fat sniper rifle. Innocent, my ass–and if he’s suffering now, GOOD. He ought to, for what he tried to do. Foreign intrigue is not fun and games, people. If he’s co-operating with the authorities and singing like a canary, fine–but he does not deserve freedom. He knew what he was involved in, and his moral sense didn’t dissuade him. I hereby remind anyone coming here to troll on his behalf that he faces charges of terrorism and attempted multiple murder, and that this is not some set-up on the part of the Bolivian government, as some people appear to think.

Now, on to the next piece of translation, in which more names are named:

According to today’s edition of the state newspaper Cambio, three names were found in the pocket of the Bolivian-Croat cell leader, Eduardo Rózsa Flores, who died resisting arrest.

One of the implicated is Juan Líder Paz, an engineer by profession, who, according to the inquiry, financed the extremists. Paz is a fugitive from justice as of Thursday, but yesterday his attorney presented a request establishing legal residence on his behalf before the prosecutor in charge of the case, Marcelo Sosa.

The other implicated man is Héctor Renato Laguna, also an engineer, in charge of recruiting youths to the so-called Bolivian Socialist Falange [‘Bina’s note: a known fascist organization] in order to commit separatist and seditious acts.

According to Cambio, the third man is Enrique Vaca, member of the directorate of Fexpocruz, the agricultural fair of Santa Cruz. He is believed to have supplied [fake] credentials to Rózsa. At the present time, Vaca is also a fugitive from justice.

The commission also took statements yesterday from the Bolivian citizen Ignacio Villa Paz, nicknamed “El Viejo” (the Old Man), who is considered a key witness for the prosecution. Villa was one of the closest persons to Rózsa, for which reason his statements are of relevance to the clarification of the international network’s acti
vities.

In the statements of “El Viejo”, several names of opposition authorities and members of the business sector of Santa Cruz recur. According to Villa, departmental prefect Rubén Costas and businessmen Branko Marinkovic, Mauricio Roca and Guido Nayar also aided the extremist group.

According to the information obtained so far, the group intended to perpetrate separatist actions and had plans to assassinate president Evo Morales and various members of his cabinet.

More on these new guys later, I’m sure. Meanwhile, enjoy this pic I found of Mike Dwyer and Eduardo Rózsa Flores in shorts…

terroristas-pantaloncillos.jpg

Somehow, neither looked quite as good in them as Evo, eh?

UPDATE: Otto has a nice, incriminating partial translation of the Cambio piece mentioned in the Prensa Latina article above. Check it out. Among other things, it totally blows to smithereens the notion that Mike Dwyer was in Bolivia on some “bodyguarding” course. He was clearly under shoot-to-kill instructions from Eduardo Rózsa Flores, as the incident of the night of the bombing of Cardinal Terrazas’ house indicates. And he seemed very keen to do the job, too. (As though all those guns down his pants would indicate anything else.) BTW, the article also blows to shit any notions that there was a legal basis for what Rózsa was doing (as he indicated in his interview with Andras Kepes in Hungary). The man was a terrorist, as was everyone else in his band. Any questions?

Stupid Sex Tricks: Father doesn’t know best, after all

lego-prostitute.jpg

Because if he did, he would know better than to solicit a prostitute to…oh, read:

The court heard that the father, who came to Britain eight years ago, was arrested last July during an undercover operation by the city’s vice squad.

Prosecutor Adrian Harris said the man and his son had approached the undercover officer whose code name was Sarah and beckoned her over .

He asked “Sarah” how much it would cost for her to have sex with his son and they agreed on a 20 pound fee. However, when the car pulled over, the man was arrested by plainclothes police officers.

“The boy said that they had driven past the girl and his dad pointed to her and said ‘will she do?'” Harris said.

“He said ‘yes’ and they had turned round. He said his dad did this because he was still a virgin and he was taking care of that for him.”

Item: The boy was 14 years old. At that age, it’s not exactly shameful to remain a virgin (in fact, it’s kind of a good idea, at that age). Now, if he were 40…

Maracaibo goes to hell, in true paramilitary style

paramilitaries-zulia.jpg

Ever since Manuel Rosales fucked off to Peru, falsely claiming he was being “persecuted”, the city of Maracaibo, Venezuela, has been effectively without a mayor. But even when Burusas was still in the city, he was apparently either grossly incompetent or flat-out criminal, if this story is any indication:

“Commando-type men arrived, armed to the teeth, and shoved us against the wall. They told us that if they saw us talking on the corner again, they would fuck us.”

So says Francisco (name altered to protect the privacy of the 17-year-old), who was threatened with death along with six other young people by a suspected “death squad” in the Lomitas del Zulia sector of the Francisco Eugenio Bustamante parish, population 93,967, on April 24 at 8:00 pm.

A total of 11 sectors are alarmed at the presence of a violent group that is trying to take the law into its own hands.

Francisco says that days before the men came to the neighborhood, the residents of Calle 60B-1 in Lomitas del Zulia were shocked to find a leaflet stuck in the doors of their houses, warning of a “social cleansing” due to the rise in juvenile delinquency in Maracaibo.

Panic took hold in the zone as people recalled the threats of the “death pamphlets” which circulated in the city and other muncipalities over the last two months.

Francisco recalls that the six armed men got out of a grey Ford Fiesta Power and corralled him when he was conversing with a group of other boys. “One of them wanted to leave on his bicycle, but they pointed a pistol at him and frisked him to see if he was armed.”

A neighbor intervened, and assured that the boys were all right and asked that they be left alone. “Then they went away. But if we see them again in the street, we won’t respond,” said one of the boys, in a hoarse voice.

From then on, the residents changed their routine. They live in fear of the men who threatened them with death.

The same thing happened a week before, in the Libertador neighborhood of the same parish, when several hooded men shouted at passersby that they would kill “delinquents and drug traffickers”, according to Adolfo Jacobo, a Maracaibo taxi driver.

“20 days ago, a friend showed me a flyer that some guys were throwing around in the streets, saying they would kill criminals, never mind if it took the lives of any innocent people,” said a resident of Avenida 95 in the same neighborhood, who declined to be identified. He added that as of that moment, the neighbors all locked themselves indoors after 7:00 pm, for fear of “being caught in a shooting.”

“We are worried about the lack of (police) patrols. Now we can’t even stand in front of our houses because of the insecurity and the threatening pamphlets,” said Eduardo Rincón, an electrician from Lomitas del Zulia in eastern Maracaibo.

His version coincides with that of Commissioner Jotny Márquez, chief of the CICPC-Maracaibo, who questions the crime-prevention work of the regional police because crime rates have risen.

In the José Antonio Páez neighborhood, near Lomitas del Zulia, people are also alarmed by the appearance of the pamphlets.

Aura Medina, a 47-year-old housewife, said that after the leaflets were distributed, several suspicious cars were seen passing through the neighborhood during the night. “We’re afraid that they will do what they did to those young guys, and take people from their houses and kill them,” said Medina, referring to a case of some young people who were taken from the La Chinita neighborhood, in the southern part of the city, last April 18.

Families of the victims have joined the CICPC and the Ombudsman’s office in calling for justice for their loved ones. “Right now, we know that they called several municipal police officers to testify who were involved, and we hope they will clarify what happened,” said Aída Rodríguez, mother of Jender Soto, who was killed by gunfire.

A spokesman for the CICPC informed that five members of the Maracaibo police were called to give statements about the occurrences. However, a tribunal source denied, for the time being, that the officials were directly involved in the murders.

The pamphlets found in Maracaibo were of the same content as those which circulated in Colombia in 2008.

Translation mine.

It seems pretty clear what’s going on. Colombian paramilitaries have been a problem in western Venezuela for years, because that region borders on Colombia. And right-wing politicians, too, have been western Venezuela’s bane for the same amount of time. It seems only logical to suspect that the two are somehow connected; the paras “provide security” to the rich, corrupt right-wingers, and do so by menacing the poor. They also seem to have had some collaborators among the Maracaibo police, and this even when Giancarlo Di Martino, a member of the PSUV (Chavecito’s party) was mayor of Maracaibo and trying to get a handle on the situation. Do the PoliMaracaibo respect no authority unless it’s that of a fascist enabler? Sure smells that way.

It doesn’t hurt, either, to recall that Colombian paramilitaries have been found to be involved in several failed coup plots against Chavecito–always hired at the behest of those same right-wing political figures who pose as heads of “civil society” and NGOs, and who are constantly screeching about political persecution when the law starts catching up to them.

So, when will the Dissociated Press, the Old Grey Whore and the WaHoPo write about the truly persecuted in Venezuela–the residents of neighborhoods terrorized by these right-wing commandos, operating illegally at the behest of poor, persecuted Manuel Rosales? Don’t hold your breath, kiddies, they’re still busy painting Chavecito as the villain on whose shoulders all of this somehow must fall.

Wankers of the Week: Open mouth wide, insert foot (or gun) edition

open-mouth-insert-foot.jpg

Perhaps a cup of STFU would be better for the following people. Too late now! Now, there’s nothing left but to tell them to fuck off…

1. David Fucking Feherty. Look, I dislike that military-industrial moron, Nancy Pelosi, as much as anyone–for taking impeachment off the table, for yelling “Oh, you BRUTE!” at my man Chavecito, and for other reasons too numerous to mention (suffice to say she’s a DINO and a low-down disgrace.) And I’m no fonder of Harry Reid (wimp), and a lot less fond of Osama (probably dead, if Beni Bhutto is anyone to go by.) But to advocate shooting the former and strangling the latter two, is just fucking stupid. One expects better of a CBS commentator, although at this point, one doesn’t expect much better anymore.

2. Brian Fucking Mulroney. So, just “all of the sudden, out of the blue”, our worst-ever former PM (before Harpo) is a criminal because he took corruption money from Karlheinz Schreiber? No, Lyin’ Cryin’ Brian, you became a crook a long time ago…by taking corruption money from Karlheinz Schreiber. You did it not once, but several times! If you were an honest man, you wouldn’t have taken so much time and care to salt that money secretively away, either. Stop blaming the media and the Mounties. Man up and admit your guilt. Because everyone else BUT you can see it, and your crocodile tears aren’t fooling anyone.

3. Harvie Fucking Andre. Pushing nuclear energy in the tar sands at the expense of public health? Pushing Dr. Helen Caldicott and the general public out of all “public” consultations, just because they would offer a contradictory opinion or, worse, contradictory facts? Someone deserves a push…right out the ol’ door. Preferably applied by the sole of a foot to the seat of a pair of pants.

4. Jacques Fucking Chaoulli. This so-called doctor’s been a wanker pretty much consistently everytime his mug appeared in the media, advocating for two-tier healthcare in Canada. His “reasoning”: Private-for-profit clinics will “ease the strain” on the overcrowded public emergency rooms by draining off the not-so-urgent care patients who can afford to pay extra for the privilege of being fast-tracked at a private-for-profit facility, thus ultimately saving lives. In actual fact, Chaoulli’s own clinic ended up causing the death of a man who came there for the urgent care Chaoulli himself boasted that said clinic was capable of providing. What did the emergency service actually consist of? Forcing a 77-year-old man in obvious respiratory distress (due to a pulmonary embolism) to sit down and wait instead of wheeling him immediately into the ER ahead of the rest of the triage line, thus easing the strain on the public system. In the words of Dr. Don McCanne,

Dr. Chaoulli’s patient did not die while on a waiting list for an elective orthopedic procedure. He collapsed and died in Dr. Chaoulli’s private waiting room. Dr. Chaoulli withheld cardiopulmonary resuscitation – a standard of care that surely would have been provided in any public health care facility – with questions over whether or not he had adequately trained staff and appropriate equipment to initiate such care. Dr. Chaoulli then asked his nurse to call 911 (to have the body removed), and he returned to his work. Only after the ambulance team arrived was cardiopulmonary resuscitation instituted.

Yeah, private-for-profit is so much more caring and efficient than non-profit publicly-funded, QED. But wait, the fun doesn’t end there: Chaoulli’s grandiloquent efforts involved copying Gandhi’s hunger strikes (for more money to buy more filet mignon?), and he claimed also to be right up there with Tommy Douglas–the father of Canada’s single-payer, non-profit system of health insurance. Chaoulli makes Wankers of the Week this time ’round because that’s when this particularly egregious item crossed my screen, but he could easily be on there every week if I didn’t find him just incredibly tiresome. Well, perhaps with all the profits he’s raking in, he can hire a part-timer to blush, squirm and be heartsick in his stead. Because I can easily foresee the patient who died in his care having a lot of company before long, if this wankery keeps up.

5. The Big Fucking Dick. Here, read the pictures:

big-dick-torture.jpg

From wanker to war criminal in four easy steps. Impressive in a grotesque sort of way.

6. Jeff Fucking Sessions. See above and add callous indifference and wanton stupidity.

7. Alberto Fucking Gonzales. Who the hell is HE to lecture anyone on “rewriting the law”, much less to make it unequivocally clear that torture is illegal and unacceptable? Oh yeah, that’s right…he’s Dubya’s little Tejano enabler. Niiiiiiice.

8. Juan Fucking Forero. For being such a predictably, consistently awful reporter on all things LatAm.

9. Sarah Fucking Litigious Palin. Get a sense of humor, and learn the Internet meaning of “redirect”. It’s not a hijack unless they make YOUR page redirect to “crackho.com”, stoopid.

And speaking of fucking litigious, how about 10. and 11.–Larry Fucking Klayman and Ricardo Fucking Guaripa. Talk about yer frivolous lawsuits. Talk about yer shysters who should be disbarred. And talk about yer Radio Marti crapaganda whores whom no one in Venezuela misses (especially for smearing the good name of that great anti-imperialist, José Martí). If you’re talking about that, you’re talking about these two losers, who had best stop talking if they don’t want to make bigger laughingstocks of themselves.

12. Rory Fucking Carroll. While we’re on the topic of laughingstocks and Venezuela, it is SO nice to see the UK Guardian’s resident snooty snotball eat a little crow and admit that the name of the new (and very popular) Vergatario cellphone is NOT in fact vulgar (it actually means “top quality”). The same could not be said about Rory Fucking Carroll and his gutter-ball brain. (Or those other UK geniuses at the Daily Fucking Mirror, who have since withdrawn their laughably titled “Hugo Chavez cocky over rude own-brand phone”. It’s now a 404 page, boo fucking hoo.)

And finally, anyone who claims I don’t know how to be credible, but who won’t elaborate as to how one goes about doing that because he’s only here to troll and pull his impotent pud. (Yes, LARRY, I mean YOU.) Y’all fuck off now, with all due respect (i.e. NONE).
