Bolivia seeks Israel’s help in fight against terror after ties renewed
[IsraelTimes] Interior Minister Arturo Murillo says Israelis ’know how to handle’ terrorists; La Paz set up new anti-terror units aimed at rooting out ’threatening’ foreign groups.

Murillo told Rooters local police were investigating leftists with alleged ties to Venezuela
...a country in Central America that sits on an enormous pool of oil. Formerly the most prospereous country in the region, it became infested with Commies sniffing almost unlimited wealth. It turned out the wealth wasn't unlimited, the economy collapsed under the clownish Hugo Chavez, the murder rate exceeds places like Honduras and El Salvador, and a significant proportion of the populace as refugeed to Colombia and points south...
n President Nicolás Maduro
...Commie el presidente para la vida of Venezuela, successor to Hugo Chavez. Nick is his country's attempt at producing a Muammar Qadaffy, except that even though his country's sitting on an enormous puddle of oil, he can't manage to get it out of the ground...
whom he said was trying to destabilize the region. Bolivia’s interim government, headed by President Jeanine Anez, unveiled a new anti-terrorism police force it said was aimed at dismantling foreign groups "threatening" the troubled South American country.

Murillo said Friday that the units were "tough and not messing around," and that several countries had helped with training. He also said he had asked Israel for help, citing its experience with terrorism.

The minister said the state had to act to "free Bolivia from these narcosnuffies who have settled in the country in the last 14 years" ‐ a pointed reference to Morales’s term in office.

Morales resigned on November 10 amid swelling protests over what political opponents said was his rigging of October 20 elections. He fled to Mexico the following day after losing the support of the military and police, claiming to be the victim of a coup.

The transitional government of Anez, a former opponent of Morales, has denounced foreign influence in the country since taking power, naming Colombians, Peruvians, Cubans and Venezuelans at different times. Her government has blamed foreigners for provoking violent festivities during more than a month of post-election violence in Bolivia that has left dozens of people dead.
