So Far Conflicts Continue

Even though the announcement came late last evening that the price of diesel will come down, things continue to escalate. The road to the airport has been blocked. Some government buildings have been occupied by protestors. The hunger strike continues. No, that doesn't describe El Alto, instead that's the scene in Santa Cruz.

A picture of the Unión Juvenil Cruceñista from El Deber. That sure conjures up images of other "youth brigades" from world history.

I think it will be stopped, mainly by the FFAA, unfortunately.

secession doesn't mean successful secession, it just means attempted secession. and i think that's almost inevitable now. whether it succeeds or not, will depend on the FFAA, of course.
