Comments for Bolivia: Fascism Seizes Power - Morales Complains at http://atlanticfreepress.com , comment 1 to 3 out of 3 comments http://atlanticfreepress.com Thu, 09 Feb 2012 15:20:19 +0100 FeedCreator 1.7.3 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/5312-bolivia-fascism-seizes-power-morales-complains-.html#comment-6416 Thanks Chris (Empire Burlesque) for promoting an article on Bolivia which actually calls the opposition to Morales by their proper names (racists and fascists). Personally, while respect James Petras, I think he is wrong on this one and has been wrong on Morales' government going back a few years now. Morales and the Bolivian people will only come out on top in the long run by not playing into the fascist coup plotters attempts to precipitate escalating violent crisis. It doesn't really matter if Petras disagrees, he will fortunately be proven wrong. - Duder Tue, 07 Oct 2008 10:40:38 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/5312-bolivia-fascism-seizes-power-morales-complains-.html#comment-6410 One remedy for the assaults on unarmed citizens by the fascist parallel government would be for the real government to allocate part of the military budget to put arms and ammunition directly into the hands of the activist groups who have been targeted. Absolute pacifism doesn't work; sometimes you must fight. - Cryptodemocrat Tue, 07 Oct 2008 03:37:50 +0100 http://atlanticfreepress.com/news/1/5312-bolivia-fascism-seizes-power-morales-complains-.html#comment-6407 Why didn’t you mention anything about the people Morales transported to Sucre, Bolivia during the Constitutional Convention to intimidate and murder people protesting against his new constitution? Or why didn’t mention the fact that Morales refused to follow legal rules and allow the opposition to introduce items into his new constitution such as moving the legislative and presidential branches of government back to Sucre? You go out of your way to identify the opposition as “neo-fascists” and “racists” for defending their right for self determination. Also, you do not mention how Evo Morales is receiving large amounts of money and materials from Hugo Chavez to prop up his government. Your long-winded article is extremely ignorant of the true situation. - Scott Mon, 06 Oct 2008 23:22:35 +0100
