    BUILD UP OF US FORCES NEAR BOLIVIA ~ New Base established

    Got a clue about this from Project Censored, at www.project censored.org

    New US Military installation in Paraguay
    Reviewed by Nick Ramirez Five hundred US troops arrived in Paraguay with planes, weapons and ammunition in July, shortly after the Paraguayan Senate granted US troops ICC immunity. Estigarribia airbase, capable of housing 16,000 troops and handling large military planes, is 124 miles from Bolivia’s border. While US rhetoric is building about terrorist threats in the tri-border region, this area is more importantly home to Bolivia’s significant water and natural gas reserves—which Bolivia’s new president has promised to nationalize.
