A Narco News Global Alert
Dear Colleagues,
The headlines shout from our Am�rica...
-- Bolivia Suspends Coca Eradication
-- Historic Talks Begin but US Embassy is Enraged
...and yet the US media, which claims to have "rediscovered foreign news"
after September 11th, has failed to report any of the hard news of the
immediate history underway in the hemisphere:
-- National Coca Summit Begins Today, Mediated by the Catholic Church
-- Popular protests and blockades forced the government to suspend
eradication and withdraw 4,000 troops from the Chapare region
-- US Embassy opposes the suspension; Bush calls Bolivian president to
Washington woodshed; presidents will meet on December 6th
-- Unrest in the Military: Colonel accuses US Embassy of forming
paramilitary mercenaries with "the most racist commanders" to bypass
Bolivian Army because it is "90 percent indigenous"
-- Congressman Evo Morales: Bolivian Law 1008 specifically allows a "cato of
coca" (a 40 by 40 meter garden) per family in the Chapare
Government hardliners insist on resuming eradication on Wednesday,
regardless of the results of the talks
-- Indigenous leader El Mallku threatens "Christmas Blockades," to surround
the capital of La Paz
-- Toll of 53 deaths, 500 wounded, due to US-imposed anti-coca policy
Read a summary of these stories plus "today's press briefing" of
translations from the Bolivian media:
