Bolivia is not for sale part 2 of 3. -

20 minutes of an awesome documentary go get it! This is part of our South-America project about US foreign policy.

The Bolivian people, robbed of their resources, maintain their dignityand fight back. In October 2003, an extraordinary popular uprisingchallenged the US Empire and kicked out President Sanchez de Lozada ?El Gringo ? a representative of US administration and transnationals?interests.

People are calling for new forms of representation and organisationthat question formal democracy and political parties, and the ?Gas War?is the latest episode in a succession of fierce and successful fightsagainst the organised theft of national resources. February 2003, amutiny by the police against the imposition of income taxation on thedestitute to fulfil IMF demands provoked the withdrawal of taxmeasures. Throughout 2002, peasants revolt against the US-imposed ?CocaWar? ? the coca-eradication plan ? that would destroy the only possiblesource of survival for thousands of poor peasants. In 2001, the peopleof Cochabamba fought successfully the ?Water War? against a mostoutrageous form of privatisation of water and forced the government tocancel the agreement with Bethell, a US-based company.

?What the Bolivian people did in October 2003 is worth more then 100 Social Forum? Evo Morales

The war against the sell-off of Bolivia?s natural resources totransnational corporations goes on ? and represents the most overt andcourageous attack on neo-liberal doctrine.
