LA PAZ, Bolivia (AP) — President Evo Morales called capitalism the ”worst enemy of humanity” at a conference of Latin American leftist intellectuals on Tuesday.
A coca-growers’ union leader who became Bolivia’s first Indian president, the leftist Morales has nationalized oil and natural gas resources as part of his effort to redistribute wealth in South America’s poorest country.
”The transnational corporations always provoke conflicts to accumulate capital, and the accumulation of capital in a few hands is no solution for humanity,” Morales said at forum in Cochabamba. ”And so I have arrived at the conclusion that capitalism is the worst enemy of humanity.”
Morales also said Bolivia’s new constitution, now being written, would declare Bolivia a pacifist nation and explicitly renounce war. ”Instead of making more weapons and bullets to kill humankind, we must concentrate on producing more food,” he said.
The president spoke at a two-day conference on the role of media in political efforts to create a new Latin American socialism, sponsored by Bolivia, Venezuela, Cuba, and Ecuador. Morales counts Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez and Cuban leader Fidel Castro as close allies.
Morales has criticized the historic role of foreign business interests in Bolivia, often noting that the 1879 War of the Pacific, in which Bolivia lost its seashore to Chile, was sparked in part by a British trading company’s rush to control the coast’s valuable guano and saltpeter deposits.

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
