In reply to the discussion: Evo Morales' plane WAS NOT "forced" down. This is how a lie spreads. [View all]JDPriestly
(57,936 posts)39. I already showed you the story from the Austrian press.
Thank God. They did not kill Morales and his crew in their zeal to catch Snowden.
Who knows? Maybe the point of forcing Morales to stay in the air was to kill him. That is what the government minister with Morales has proposed -- that the goal was to kill Morales.
This is serious stuff.
The Bolivians at one point said that if Bolivia had been a more developed country, our violation of diplomatic immunity and the law with regard to Bolivia's presidential plane would have been a causus belli, and act of war.
This if for real, not a game.

This OP is, given everything else we (and YOU) know, in effect a willful lie. Please delete it.
