‘Don't Let Food into the Cities': Evo Morales Caught on Tape Planning Starvation in Bolivia
long article- excerpt:
[Breitbart] On Wednesday, Minister of Government (Interior Minister) Arturo Murillo published audio of what he said was a call between Morales, currently in Mexico, and Faustino Yucra Yarwui, a rural socialist community organizer, in which Morales demanded Yucra organize blockades around the nation’s biggest cities to prevent food and basic supplies from coming in, pressuring the government to allow Morales to return to power.

Yucra is a member of one of Bolivia’s coca growers’ unions. Coca is the plant used to develop cocaine. Morales rose to power as an advocate for coca growers and used his international prominence to promote the legalization of coca leaf,

Yucra, who refers repeatedly to Morales as "brother," tells Morales that the coca leaders have organized two blockade points to prevent goods from entering, one that has attracted 4,500 people.

"You know what, brother: you don't have to have 4,500 people," Morales replies in the audio. "Divide the union into four or five groups, so it lasts longer. … If you concentrate [in one place], people give up, but if there are groups, they take turns, we can hold up the blockade."

"Brother, don't let food into the cities, we will really blockade," Morales continues. "When they expelled me from Congress in 2002, they did a blockade. And now, they kick me out of Bolivia; there is a blockade. We will win."

Murillo told reporters the call occurred "three days ago" but could not reveal how Bolivian intelligence services acquired it. He accused Morales of "terrorism" and "crimes against humanity" for helping Yucra organize violent blockades that could starve out thousands of poor Bolivians.
