  6. USA continues interference in other countries, as usual. They only need puppets that work for their interests, destroying the sovereignty of countries – this is dark, and evil.

  14. Why do I smell a sham coup d'etat in the air because for some reason the president of Bolivia himself is pretty much gloating and for some reason it feels too suspect for me to actually consider that maybe he could have organized this coup in order to get rid of a general that he probably didn't even like. I don't know it just sounds like a sham this coup d'etat for me to actually think this was real.
