Cojudeces the Bolivarian Simón Bolívar is the historical celebrity with the most Hispanic Fans and admirers of the most varied political and religious creeds. They are of extreme right and radical left-wing Catholic, Apostolic Roman and atheists, and between these extremes, a range intermediate composed of men and women of all pure breeds and mixed-race, of all ages and conditions economic, social and cultural rights. Catholics know Bolivarian always bent on finding evidence or evidence to enable them to assert or at least infer that the Liberator himself confessed and received communion before he died. Atheists, meanwhile, flatly deny that, then do not support an entire five-nation Liberator has come to such baseness. Of course, all speak of his great intellectual spirit, of his merits as a political strategist and warrior of his lavish and erotic love life, and even his small physical stature and how hard you had your ass calloused from walking to riding through Los Andes, from Venezuela to Bolivia and from Bolivia to Venezuela.
For my part, I said that time was the Liberator Liberator but not independent, because the one man who was freed a British physician, the husband of Manuelita Saenz, thanks to his great gifts of male to appease the most demanding ladies in Bates bedroom. From this it can be read in the book Reflections of a Free Thinker, I authored and, in extensive and documented in the work of Dr. Fernando Jurado Noboa, Las Noches de los Libertadores.
They tell so many lies about this celebrity to enlarge it, supposedly, and what they have done is to degenerate and shrink your figure, making him muse, handle and cover of the most distinguished intellectuals and political bastards Hispanic self-styled left. The "Liberator" against him everything that every fan can imagine. Some claim that was poor and died poor, some people say it was selfless of material wealth, which was anti-imperialist Marxist others will qualify, Indian and even green ... Anyway.
These are the Liberator cojudeces saying: FIRST lunacy
BOLIVARIANA: Bolívar died poor
False. Simón Bolívar, has never been poor. From birth to death was the most wealthy of Venezuela. If you doubt this, I recommend reading the Book Business Bolivar, the Venezuelan historian, Antonio Herrera-Vaillant, in whose pages we information paper on the assets of the Liberator, especially their huge ranch that occupied the great valley of Aroa in the province of Carabobo, whose vast and rich lands were demarcated within a circumference of 178 kilometers! and contained copper mines of the world's best, in the opinion of the Bolivar-gold deposits and other minerals, fine woods, abundant water and fertile land for crop and livestock production. Aroa mines leased to the British investors for an income equivalent to $ 123,000 a year and three months, 17 days before his death, on September 1, 1830, Bolívar wrote to Mr. Robert Wilson naming him as his new representative in London for the sale of Aroa concrete, it ended with the signing of the parties on February 4, 1832, in favor of Mr. Robert Dent and Phillips, buyers Bolivar Mining Association, the sum of 1'050 .000, oo of the time (366'450 .000, oo Bs, or 2'155 .588, oo dollars, calculated at year 1994). Apart from this great heritage, the Liberator and his brothers, María Antonia, Juana Maria and Juan Vicente, owned three houses of great value in the city of Caracas and three large haciendas: Chirgua, Swat and San Mateo in the valleys Aragua. In addition, of course, other businesses, property, livestock, jewelry and money hand over fist. "Poor, Bolivar?!
His heirs were his sisters universal. In his former lover and "freedom", Manuela Sáenz, do not leave anything. Why? ... I do not know. If anyone has any suspicions, please tell me. SECOND
BOLIVARIANA lunacy: Bolívar had no attachment to money, his only interest was free from English rule.
False. He loved and cared for his fortune as much as any good businessman, and it was time for it. While it was generous, why not wasted opportunities to increase their assets and possessions. To prove what I say, I refer to documents written by himself and also to what they tell their stories.
On October 18, 1825, the Liberator is preparing a prospectus sent to Mr John Dundas Cochrane (English), in this document reflects his entrepreneurial spirit and its innate talent to big business.
This is part of the contents of this document:
Dear Sir:
... I found myself employed in public service and, therefore, willing to separate personal and business affairs themselves, I have determined to offer you the Aroa Valley sale in its entirety and all property for the amount we agree, after hearing that you are the propositions or your friends want me.
The rich and beautiful possession of Aroa, is one of those that offer more advantages for a colony on the shores of the sea, by the following considerations:
1. Its area is circular with 32 miles in circumference.
2. Have navigable rivers that empty into the sea.
3. Its copper mines are the world's best, and the metal's finest.
4. It contains minerals of all kinds according to research that has been done by people trained in the art.
5. Produces abundant and precious woods.
6. Their territories are the most fertile land to plant fruits Europeans and Americans.
7. Exports to the sea, are really easy to Puerto Cabello, and if you want the West Indies, or to Europe.
8. The revenue to be produced this property is the value of 400.000 or 500.000 pesos at the current stage, and therefore, when it is exploited, cultivated, and populous, will be worth millions,
After these considerations, I hope you will goodness me offers that you deem appropriate to their interests or to their sights. (The letter goes on).
Two days later he sent this message to Jose Rafael Revenga.
... I'd rather be in England the value of Aroa, the mine itself, as I have not explode, there is no better for me mine that the money I will give England, with which I can only have to spend my days after I retired from public affairs ... (Pay attention: it says public services, but business).
days later goes to his sister, Maria Antonia, and, among other things, he said:
... Aroa mines want to sell now that so many cravings for mines and foreign colonies. If we lose this opportunity, then perhaps not be achieved, and when we want to secure a fortune in England, and we can not. Properties and estates are too many and we say the same home, for tomorrow will fall in a quake. The truth is that having we in England hundred thousand pounds secured at the Bank enjoyed a year of three percent, going from twelve thousand dollars of income (current Bolivars 20'940 .000 -1994), and we have the money ready for when you want: So, come what may, will always have udes. a fortune to count for udes. and their children.
(More references in the book Bolivar Entrepreneur Vailland Antonio Herrera-Editions TH, 2008, pages 34 - 39. Also in Letters of the Liberator, by Professor Paul Verna, editions of the Presidency of the Republic. 1976).
So the "father of five nations" if he loved material wealth and more While all the money saved in foreign banks, far from the countries he liberated, whose governments did not trust since then.
But if you still are not convinced that Simon Bolivar y Palacios had human failings, I suggest reading the book "Bolivar, Liberator of Peru Enemy No. One" by Dr. Herbert Morote, and was surprised to learn that as well or worse than any city vain and greedy.
On pages 70, 71 and 72 of that work (2nd edition of James Campodonico, 2007), under the subtitle The endless prizes to the winners of Junín and Ayacucho, I found sentences and paragraphs about certain events related to the Liberator, which gave me goosebumps from head to toe. The truth, which angered me. Then transcribe small parts of the content reference:
"... In addition to honors for life and new titles such as Father and Saviour of the Fatherland, Congress directed a series of measures to reinforce the cult of the Liberator. Thus, statues and medals were struck with a bust, was ordered in the main squares of all departmental capitals put on a plaque of appreciation to the Liberator and ... "
" The bankruptcy of the treasury was no reason for Congress (sub) leave without financial reward the Liberator and was awarded a million dollars as a small token of recognition. Happily acknowledged that Peru was not left over from funds otherwise the small demonstration had been impossible to pay. One million dollars was a huge amount, something like one third of the annual budget of the entire country. To give an idea ... the ship Monteagudo cost 80 000 pesos, and all the properties, mines, houses and estates expropriated from the English and the natives who took refuge in the Real Felipe had the value of one million pesos, according Larrea, Minister Finance Bolivar 1826. "
" As usual, Bolivar rejected this award several times but finally accepted it on behalf of his family. The events that precipitated his departure did not allow time to pay this award, but finally took their heirs during the Echeverria administration. "
" Bolivar gifts were overwhelming. Congress also gave him a golden sword with 1,374 precious stones, including rubies and diamonds ... Cusco gave him a crown composed of 47 gold laurel leaves, 49 baroque pearls, 283 diamonds and 10 gold beads. "
"... the truth is that the costs of donations in 1825 were 50% more than what was budgeted, according to the reports of the minister of Finance, Jose Morales Ugarte. We do not know if that figure includes the 2 thousand pesos monthly paid to the mistress of the Liberator, the adorable Manuelita Saenz. The historian Salvador de Madariaga review the Peruvian government spent more than 300 thousand dollars in jewelry and art objects to the Liberator, in that amount does not include the 8 thousand dollars in cologne. "
In order to compare, I note that in 1817 the wealthiest man in my native Guasuntos a gentleman bachelor, Don Fernando Hernandez, had an income of 50 pesos (as the historian and genealogist references Fernando Jurado Noboa). THIRD
BOLIVARIANA lunacy: Bolívar was imperialism.
False. On the contrary, he was, rather, an ardent admirer, supporter, follower and ally of the empire and imperialist of his time. So much so that his obsession to become himself emperor of the countries that are credited with having "freed" him to commit reprehensible acts of abuse of power, disrespect for the laws and institutions, with manifestations of extreme arrogance and vanity; shot, imprisoned those who had helped in campaigns of war and therefore many of his friends, comrades and colleagues are away from their side and even became her political opponents and tough censors.
Surely what they mean is that the Bolivarian Liberation was anti-American or antiyanki. But it happens that at the time the U.S. were just establishing itself as the only and largest democratic republic that had never existed in the world, in which case it would be wise and just be classified as anti republican, undemocratic and colonialist.
Bolivar was one of the most notable fans of Napoleon (Emperor of France and its conquered territories.) He longed to make his fortune safely in the bank of England. Made up the abuse to become president for life in Peru. When offering for sale its huge Aroa Valley British entrepreneurs are suggested there could be a colony. Received financial assistance from the British Empire, weapons, warships, strategists and soldiers (mercenaries) for its military campaigns against the English Empire. Or not? So it is that Ecuador maintained for a century and a half the "English debt", which was paid in 1971 with petrodollars from the exploitation of "black gold" that had recently been found in the eastern region.
And to leave no doubt that Bolívar was an ardent imperialist, would do anything to get away with it, I transcribe a paragraph from one of the many letters he wrote from Kingston, Jamaica, back in 1815, led it to Maxwell Hyslop, British businessman very influential in their government, who asked for economic aid and military equipment in exchange for two major Central American territories (! .)
said paragraph says this: ... so excessive benefits can be obtained by the weakest means: twenty or thirty thousand rifles, a million pounds sterling, fifteen or twenty warships, munitions, some agents and military volunteers wish to follow the American flag (...) These relief offers covered the rest of South America and at the same time can provide the British government in the provinces of Panama and Nicaragua, to form these countries the trade center of the universe through the opening, which broke levees on either sea, remote distances near and make permanent the Empire of England over trade.
What do you think ?!... A great visionary, the Liberator, and also very generous with things that did not belong. FOURTH
BOLIVARIANA lunacy: Bolívar was
Indian False. The facts in various historical documents show that rather despised Indians and blacks. There are those who qualify for slavery, for slavery and restored tribute mita Indians and pongueaje in Peru, which had been abolished by San Martín. This attitude was not surprising, since in his native Venezuela he came to own slaves 2000. Do not forget that the abolition of slavery in Ecuador (which belonged to the Great Colombia forged by Bolívar) occurred only in the government of General José María Urbina, in 1851, ie 21 years after the death of the Liberator . The Indians considered them thieves, truchimanes, liars, false, without any moral principles that guide them. And this was said over and over again. On pages 79 to 84 of the abovementioned book "Bolivar," by Herbert Morote, described abuse, the horrors against the Indians and their massive martyrdom during the reign of the Liberator in Peru. There is even talk of a genocide perpetrated with the connivance of its Governing Council. (The reading of those pages moved and indignant.) FIFTH
BOLIVARIANA lunacy: There Marxist Bolivarian Bolivarian and Marxists.
This really is the last straw. Is it because this kind of passionate and reversible types, or bastards or do we truly are not aware that Don Carlos Marx had a dislike to his hero and he expressed himself very ill of him, even writing to him to be registered in the history of your insulting opinion. Marx denigrating solace the Liberator. In one of his letters to his friend and flattering, Frederick Engels, dated February 14, 1858, referred to "the father of five nations" as the villain most cowardly, brutal and miserable. Bolivar is the true Soulouque, said in the letter, and later also said it was a myth in the imagination of the masses in these terms: The creative force of myths, characteristic of the popular fantasy at all times tested devising effective big men. The most notable example of this kind is, without doubt, the Simón Bolívar.
(encyclopedia Notice: Faustin-Élie Soulouque ruled Haiti from -1847 to 1859. There was proclaimed Emperor in 1849, under the name of Faustin I. Was despotic, cruel, megalomaniac).
Bolivar Some argue that respected freedom of expression. However, he did just those who expressed themselves well of him and his government. In the Press Law regulations condemned to six years in prison for the authors of the letters that his government regarded as subversive and banned the satires against government regulations (I quote again Morote).
Other smaller size:
In fact, there many other Marxist-Leninist cojudeces of progressive leftist Bolivarian revolutionaries themselves that is so ridiculous deserve no further comment. A document of the Bolivarian socialist movement asserts, among other rave, that the Liberator was green. You ever seen so great lunacy: Bolívar was, besides many other things, timber businessman and sawmills were cut and tore trees native forests. Moreover, at that time had not even conceived the word green. Also mentioned was unyielding. And here I remain silent, for, on erotic themes, by this time, I will not say.
For all this and more, support, praise and endorse the opinion of John Lynch, who said that Bolívar was an exceptionally complex man, a liberator who disdained liberalism, a Republican who admired the monarchy. For my part I would add that he was a master of double talk, a great display of high ideals and virtues that differed from his intimate and secret ambitions.
