Oh my...Prensa Latina website about Bush Family land grab in Paraguay now gone from the "internets."

Hmmm...I just tried to access the original article about the Bush land grab
in Paraguay. It has vanished from the "internets..."
Imagine that, as global warming reports increase.
All that water, just for them, not to mention the natural gas in Bolivia.

"Katrina to you all" the Chimperor cried as he
fled the wasteland.

They are erasing any documentation- that means the
catastrophe they have wrought upon us is nearer than before.
And "hello" to Agent Mike on this thread-
too late "Mike," many of us printed it out.

BHN

this private army he talked about in the SOTU speech.

They plan to protect themselves from the unwashed masses
who face the lack of fresh water due to global warming.
They've thought of everything.

BHN

I would expect nothing less.

You know, Kinda-Sleezy who worked for Armitage all those
years?

Lordy, we are so screwed.

BHN

Instead of getting nicknames like 'Vinny the knife', they get oil supertankers named after them and get to shoot lawyers in the face. They get titles like Secretary of State and UN Ambassador. Just so far beyond normal crime it is mind-numbing. :(

"The mystery about the installation of a United States military base in Paraguay begins to clear: The purpose is to drive a wedge into the Mercosur trade bloc and to control the region, objectives that contrast with the passivity of governments that should have reacted long ago.

The diplomatic immunity granted by the Paraguayan parliament to the American troops set off an alarm. Speculation immediately arose that Washington was going to establish a military base in Mariscal Estigarribia, where in the 1980s U.S. technicians built a huge airport with a 3,800-meter landing strip suitable for B-52 bombers, and C-5 Galaxy and C-130 transport planes. The base has housing for 16,000 troops and is barely 200 kilometers <120 miles> from the border with Bolivia."

'Shortly after Rice's tour of the region, a series of events occurred: On May 5, the U.S. arranged for the Paraguayan Congress to approve an increase in the number of U.S. troops. That was done on May 26, under the strictest secrecy.'

'On June 10, Paraguayan Vice President Luis Castiglioni traveled to Washington, where he met with Vice President Dick Cheney, Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld and the then-Assistant Secretary of State for Hemispheric Affairs, Roger Noriega.'

'On July 1, the first contingent of 500 U.S. soldiers arrived in Paraguay, and on the 7th of that month, reacting to widespread alarm, the U.S. Embassy in Asuncisn issued a communiqui stating that the U.S. had not intention of establishing a permanent base in the country.'


All the 'dark players' you would expect.

But we at DU are paying attention, eh?
Best damned media on the planet- DU.

BHN:toast:

I stopped getting my news from the TV about the same time I joined DU. :evilgrin:

Hmmm...

All of the other sites that link to it- RawStory, Anitwar, Info wars etc...
all of them- the link is dead.

Imagine that.
There is even a DU thread that comes up in the search- the DU link is
active, but the original link posted in the thread has gone down the memory hole.
Uh-huh.
What does that tell us?
BHN

I must admit, I felt a bit of a shiver when I tried to access it.

God damn them.
God damn the global elite and their deliberate
pillaging of the rest of us.

They built their private military base, next to their
escape ranch, conveniently located where there will
be water for them, when there is none for the rest,
with OUR tax dollars.

They have know all along where global warming was going
to take the rest of us- they made their plan for survival and to
hell with the rest of us.

The link now asks you to subscribe in order to read the story - a lot of newspapers only let subscribers read archived stories online.

Perhaps the registration is just a way to rack people
trying to learn about it?
I put nothing past these bastards.

BHN

just archived, so people can't read it online anymore. I checked a totally innocous story that Prensa Latina ran about the same time (Oct. 2006), and got the same screen.

Japan Supports Cuban Rice Farmers - http://www.plenglish.com/Article.asp?ID={181A1FC0-AA9C-4564-8AB6-11391B0B07D0}&language=EN

Translated, that screen says that you are not a registered user, and need to subscribe to see the rest of the story. It's good to get it preserved before it's archived, though, no matter what.

When all is said and done and generations to come are wondering
what the hell happened, it will all be here, in one form or another,
courtesy of the thinking people of DU.

Carry on good people.
You are recording history.
The real history of this country.

Bush Paraguay Land Grab Incites Unease
by repost Tuesday, Oct. 24, 2006 at 5:43 AM

Asuncion, Oct 18 (Prensa Latina) - The land grab project of US President George W. Bush in Chaco, Paraguay, has generated considerable discomfort both politically and environmentally.

The news circulating the continent about plans to buy 98,840 acres of land in Chaco, Paraguay, near the Triple Frontier (Bolivia, Brazil, Paraguay) is the talk of the town in these countries.

Although official sources have not confirmed the information that is already public, the land is reportedly located in Paso de Patria, near Bolivian gas reserves and the Guarani indigenous water region, within the Triple Border.

Alto Paraguay Gov. Erasmo Rodriguez Acosta revealed he heard that part of the land purchase consists of an ecological reserve (Fundacion Patria), with which Bush is affiliated.

In its interview with Rodriguez Acosta, neike.com.py reported that he does not have documentation of this affiliation and it could not communicate either with the foundation or with the National Rural Development and Land Institute, in charge of these state lands.

Concern increased last week with the arrival of Bush" daughter, Jenna, and a source from the Physical Planning Department saying that most of the Chaco region belongs to private companies.

Luis D"Elia, Argentina´s undersecretary for Land for Social Habitat, says the matter raises regional concern because it threatens local natural resources.

He termed it “surprising” that the Bush family is trying to settle a few short miles from the US Mariscal Estigarribia Military Base.

Argentinean Adolfo Perez Esquivel warned that the real war will be fought not for oil, but for water, and recalled that Acuifero Guaraní is one of the largest underground water reserves in South America, running beneath Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay and Uruguay (larger than Texas and California together).

“The southern US states are already struggling with water shortages," asserted the 1980 Nobel Peace Prizewinner.

Orlando Castillo, Paraguay Peace and Justice Service member, recalled the US military buildup in Chaco under a bilateral agreement.

And a Spanish(Argentina) version: http://www.telam.com.ar/vernota.php?tipo=N&idPub=39830&id=106051&dis=1&sec=1

Perhaps one day, between us all, the survivors and generations to come
will learnand come to understand what happened through our documentation.

They know damned well what's coming- they are positioning themselves
to decide who lives and dies.

As if that were anything new about the BFEE?

BHN

When I lived in Brasil over 3 years ago, the military was already preparing for a future confrontation with the USA.

With the global warming reports being what they are,
the assessment about water shortages and all
due to global warming,
that is not inconceivable.

BHN

Vou mudar lá porque eu tenho familia no Brasil. ;)

Sou cangaçeiro do pântano! RARA!

just anti-BFEE brainstorming out loud here ... wondering if Paraguay can grab back via inherent power of the state to expropriate private property, or rights in private property, without the owner's consent, either for its own use or by delegation of the taking power to third parties who will devote it to "public uses"?

there's probably an anti-eminent domain subclause in the paperwork ... seems their evil minds think of everything ... step-processed every little detail ...
