Reply #6: Investigation has spread to Argentina

[rabs]

Argentina version:

Bolivian government has asked Argentina to investigate two former Argentina military "carapintadas" who are suspected of having links to the Bolivian fascists in Santa Cruz de la Sierra.

One of them is former carapintada Jorge Mones Ruiz. (Photo) (Carapintadas used camouflage paint on their faces and led aborted military revolt against President Raul Alfonsin in the late 1980s. The carapintadas objected to fellow officers being put on trial for human-rights violations. Many of the carapintadas were imprisoned but released by President Menem in 1989.)

Bolivian version

(warning: Gukert/Gannon-style photo in story; Bolivian-Croatian terrorist Eduardo Rózsa playing around with an assault rifle.)

Story mentions an extreme right-wing organization called UnaAmerica, which is supposed to be a counterweight to the UNASUR and which is said to have connections to the Venezuelan opposition and to Colombian right-wingers.
