A "civil coup"
is underway in Bolivia, aimed at destabilising the
government of President Evo Morales and destroying the peaceful and
democratic process of change his government is leading. This
attempt to overthrow the elected government comes after a national
referendum endorsed Morales as president with 67.4% of votes cast in a fair
and free election.Beginning on September 9, organised right-wing violence has been unleashed in 5 of Bolivia's 9 departments, backed by the anti-Morales authorities in these regions. This has involved violent gangs, armed with clubs, molotov cocktails and hand guns, violently taking over state institutions, attacking indigenous peoples, police, soldiers, representatives of Morale's Movement Towards Socialism and other social movement activists. In the department of Pando, disturbing news of a cold-blooded massacre of indigenous farmers has emerged, with at least 15 people reported killed, allegedly orchestrated by Pando prefect Leopoldo Fernandez . Significant evidence has been provided of the role of the United States government in collaborating with this conspiracy to destabilise Bolivia. Just before the violence broke, US ambassador to Bolivia, Philip Goldberg, publicly stated that the US should intervene on the side of the opposition. There is also documented evidence that the US government has provided funding to opposition groups implicated in this latest wave of violence, just as documented evidence revealed the same strategy in the attempted and ongoing overthrow of Chavez in Venezuela. This comes alongside the refusal of the US to agree to the Bolivian government's request to extradite former president Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada and former justice minister Carlos Sanchez Berzain for their roles in the massacre of more than 60 people in 2003 during protests against planned privatisation of Bolivia's gas industry. Instead, Berzian has been granted asylum in the US. It has been alleged that Berzian has helped coordinate the current violence. Petition: In light of all of this, we the undersigned,
UP!date* Urge respect for the democratically elected government of President Evo Morales and the will of the Bolivian people. * Call on the government of the United States to cease immediately its intervention into sovereign nations in Latin America. In particular, stop funding opposition groups inside Latin American nations. * Call on the US government to extradite Gonzalo Sanchez de Lozada and Carlos Sanchez Berzain to face trial for their alleged crimes in Bolivia.

PLANET EARTH SAVED! FEEDBACK hello lover boy i've watched quite a few of all them cheapo docus about the fed reserve, the money markets, the rothschilds, blah blah blah, and they generally end up with the same conclusion that it's a jewish conspiracy, and usually some brainwashed c**t like alex jones has been reading the protocols of the learned elders of zion, and take it as fact. >> fair enuff. but this was the first one that inspired all the others, and it doesn't mention jews anywhere as i recall. it really IS worth seeing all the way through. there was one interesting thing that was posted on the newsgroups ages ago, and that was about america's road map, and was basically about how dick cheney, paul wolfowitz et al see the world. basically it was going on about loads of stuff, but one thing jumped out, and that was how china basically owned america (this is like about 3 years ago before it was public knowledge that china had bought up govt bonds), and i got to say i was wondering how the fck® america were going to bring china down .... i cant help think the current financial market crisis somehow has been manufactured to bring china down .... >> i'd thought about that too. i guess it all boils down to whether u think the ruling banking elite (owners of the Fed) is collapsing like the banks below it or whether it's planned the whole thing in order to basically put the whole world (people & governments) into debt to it. am still unsure. EVERY student these days NEEDS CREDIT to start their life, and the hope (of the Fed elite) would be that that becomes the general lifestyle. can u imagine one in four people are chinese and americans having to bow down to them?????????????? christine, london north west. >> am imagining it as hard as i can :) UP!date It is now absolutely clear, from
what is going on in the USA, that the money world rules everything and is
blatantly more powerful in it's grip over politics than it was when the
greedboom was on.
People's fear is now being
exploited completely overtly, no secrets left as the Bush administration
displays it's total allegiance to capital, it's utter disregard for democracy, as it
railroads the American people's and the world's psyche into accepting the
dominance of the money system over all other priorities.
Hey UP! Fraser .....I think you're
ultimately right about this and I have shared your hunch since I can remember;
you know, even as a kid I could sense that this precarious illusion that everyone was
falling for.... would one day have to burst.... in adult life it has driven me
nuts to see it all going so extreme and ridiculous. I didn't even land on the
planet 'til 1953.... but it didn't take me long to sense the madness that was
going on... Yes, of course, I learned to admire my parents and their generation
for enduring the war with Nazi Germany... and I was grateful that they won
it, but something deep inside me was suspicious of what they had
pinned their hopes on.... for my folks it was old Labour and the new
jerusalem... intuitively, though, the total materialism of the socialist
critique of capitalism made me think I was looking at two sides of the same
dubious coin, that is, the expectation of continuous economic growth based on
exploiting the earth and natural resources for the development of industrialised
man and his physical comforts and possessions.. when the Hippie era came along I
knew I wasn't alone.. what a relief that other people were feeling this same
alienation from that "straight" ways of engaging with life and reality. Since
then though, we have not been able to stop the rape of the earth and the
deluding of the masses into gross consumerism from growing exponentially
until now it has become so blatantly unsustainable that even they know it.
Like you I feel vindicated, but I
ain't dancing on the corpse yet, cos I think (no, my intuition tells me) the
celebration is a little premature. For one thing, it is so powerful
and pernicious that it forces our dependence upon it, no matter how much we
eschew it, we are all bound to it to a greater or lesser extent. There is no
ring-side seat for us, we are all sucked into the arena in one way or another
and it is frightening for us mere mortals, I have to say.
>> a lot of people confuse the capitalist system with the modern technology and networking available today. if u wake up tomorrow and the money in your bank is worth nothing, that doesn't mean the satellites will fall from the sky and u can't go on the internet. the pretty rapid realisation the powers-that-be will have to reach is that, if they don't make sure everyone is safe in their house (paid for or not) and well fed, there will be riots and cities will get burned to the ground. it is very difficult to predict it all, for sure, but don't assume that their paranoid fantasy is in any way certain either. Also don't forget that the
financial dinosaur is a predatory carnivorous global beast that is not
averse to cannibalism and indeed, in the last resort, even
to devouring parts of it's own huge body in
order to sustain it's desperate life. Parts of it are still thriving and
robust enough to battle on. It is only the western arm that is weakening
and only it's Anglo-Saxon head that's cracked. It's like the Hydra, mate,
it's got more, and they continue functioning
vigorously. The fight is on, yes and victory is assured, but it's going to
inflict a lot more real pain and suffering on the planet and the people before
it finally falls into the pit.
>> am more inclined to put most of that in the past tense. yes, lotta pain and suffering for some to come, but maybe nothing like as bad as we imagine and hopefully we got much more chance of coming through now that the Beast has Fallen. We need to be careful not to get
complacent ... remember, it ain't over 'til the fat lady sings....she isn't
out of the woods just yet!
>> oh am in now way complacent. maybe i sound like that cos everyone else is being doomy - which they pick up from the commentaries emerging from the busting bubble. Big UP!s.

- the final death rattle of the Middle Ages - \)))))(/ my fellow UPPies, really, after 50 years of predicting , advocating and finally actively promoting the Collapse of the Capitalist System as the best thing that could happen for EVERYONE, i want to write a 20 page Hallelujah about the fact that it's finally happening! but i am suffering from a slightly inflamed egoI MEAN LIVER! and i don't have the energy, so i'll just have to let you have my notes so far... PLANET EARTH SAVED! Hallelujah! EFFORTLESSLY SHRUGS OFF DINO MATRIX! Hallelujah! HUMAN SPECIES LOOKS AROUND FOR ALTERNATIVE FUTURE - Consumer Confidence Trick Shatters Hallelujah! - Capitalism, The Skeletal Embodiment & Psychic Apparatus of the Dinosaur, now in Meltdown! Hallelujah! - Dinos' Last Stand Accelerates on every front - Hallelujah! - Carbon Bubble Bursts & Busts - Hallelujah! EVERYTHING THAT THIS SICK, UNJUST, RUTHLESS, COMPETITIVE SYSTEM COULD NEVER HAVE DONE TO SAVE US ALL IS NOW BEING EXECUTED BY THE PLANET GODDESS'S RULES THEMSELVES, THE REAL ECONOMICS hey. of course i could be wrong. NOBODY knows - just look at the startled rabbit experts on tv every night. but i've believed since i was 21 that this whole bubble was unbalanced and unhealthy on every level (without even knowing it was all a carbon bubble!), and that it would be a blessing (even on the wealthiest) if it was to go. when the communist system collapsed, i started awaiting and predicting the collapse of the capitalist system. it's taken longer than i'd hoped, but here it is. yes, OF COURSE, much sudden-change syndromania will be drawn to the surface, BUT I RECKON EVERYTHING WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MUCH WORSE IF THE SYSTEM HAD MANAGED TO DRAG ITS SLIMY EVIL PATH FOR ANOTHER DECADE OR TWO, for then it would have been DEFINITELY too late to save anything. now at least we might have a chance. i often wonder if the masses, out there watching events unfold and constantly being told how a "recession" and a "depression" are coming, actually feel as unhappy and surprised about it as the media pundits assume. maybe they do - if you've never tried to think outside the box you're very likely to believe what you hear. if you think things are utterly utterly terrible (as you're inclined to do if you're living inside the bubble) then think about this: george bush is NOT about to invade iran, or lock up all the lefties in secret camps as some were predicting - he's shuffling off the stage, the biggest socialist with the biggest socialist nationaliser in history. wish i had the energy to write more.

ANOTHER QUESTION: According to the video the Bank's Grand Plan to control the entire market is to create easy cheap credit to stimulate lots of business action and debt, at which point they suddenly withdraw credit, bust everyone, and end up owning just about everything. it's happened many times before. is that what's happening this time? easypeasy credit for a decade or two and now CRASH, the rothschilds and their associates will end up owning the planet and we shall all live on credit, from THEM. it was well on its way to completion (student loans remember) when all this mess blew up. so have they lost control COS THAT IS WHAT HAS TO HAPPEN IF WE ARE EVER TO ESCAPE FROM UNDER THIS MATRIX.

people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency,

In other words, if people stop believing that apparently wealthy countries actually are producing wealth." Hari Kunzru, Novelist UP!date Palin Banned Book List Was A Hoax. Sorry.
