Bolivia President Morales Says U.S. Seeks to Kill Him
2006-06-01
Bolivian President Evo Morales said the U.S. organized teams to track down and kill him, according to a note published on the Bolivian presidential Web site.

Morales, speaking at the opening of a hospital that was built with help from Cuba in the town of Escoma, Bolivia, said he recently found out about the plots against him, the state newswire ABI said in the report on the presidential Web site.

The allegations are unfounded, U.S. Embassy in La Paz said in a statement sent to journalists by E-mail. Calls to the Bolivian presidential palace requesting comment were not returned.

#18  We should have some kind of leak that indicates Evo and Chavez are really on the CIA payroll (why the US didn't support the coup against Chavez) and see what happens to their support.

#16  First you nationalize the oil. Then you create the spectre of Yankee oppression. Next step: community self-defense committees to be given rifles by the gummint. Then you talk about changing the constitution so that you can rule forever.

#9  It's kind of a rite of passage for Latin American dictators. You're not a real man until the US tries to kill you.
