Eduardo Rosza Flores' reasons for being in Bolivia are clear to see.
http://www.hungarianambiance.com/2009/04/long-awaited-interview-with-flores.htmlThe long awaited interview with Flores
#fullpost{display:inline;}
In the secretly recorded interview, boadcasted today in the Hungarian television Flores said that he went to Bolivia to defend Santa Cruz, in case of a civil war. He said to András Kepes that he had received a request to help defending Santa Cruz from government forces.
About one and half year ago, it appeared that Bolivia would plunge into a civil war. He had been asked to help organizing the defense of Santa Cruz, said Flores. Those who contacted him wanted a peaceful secession of Santa Cruz, by demonstrating force.
There was a chance that government forces will sweep through the city and we declare independence. We had got the money and the weapons acquiring them through illegal channels, continued Flores.
He crossed into Bolivia illegally from Brazil.
He hadn't asked commission for this project because of the love of his country, said Flores. "I have never been a mercenary and never will be" he said.
When he was asked about death, he said "Here too, a brick can fall on my head, how strange it would be". "If something will happen to me, it was destined to happen" he said.
This is basically, the gist of the interview.
Linda Szászvári, the girlfriend of Flores said he had had a heart attack in 2007, when the situation in Bolivia was pretty tense. He was angry and helpless that made him sick.0 -

Yes but who financed this independence of santa cruz?
Who was paying for the tiperary lads wages?
Why would a tiperary guy try to aide a very dubious independance campaign which was about trying to prevent redistribution from a wealthy area to poorer ones
It is amazing that any conflict flores was involved in he always was on the side that was of US strategic advantage.
BTW the Irish media coveredge on this matter is to say the least, predictable.
I would suspect this man.

Branko Marinković, Croat tycoon in Bolivia lobbying for dismemberment of the Latin American state, is suspected of planning and organizing a coup attempt, failed after Bolivian security forces foiled a series of planned assassinations by the group of international mercenary terrorists, lead by Eduardo Rozsa Flores, a neo-Nazi war criminal who commanded the “International Brigade” of worldwide psychopaths within the Croat paramilitary troops during the civil war in former Yugoslavia, in the 1990s. Marinković’s close ties with the current U.S. Ambassador Philip Goldberg, called “Ambassador of Ethnic Cleansing” because of his role in dismemberment of Yugoslavia, are also under investigation by the Bolivian officials.
The latest probe into subversive activities of Croat emigration and especially examination of the criminal past and fascist ideology nurtured by the Croat paramilitary troops, including the notorious psychopaths gathered in Croatia’s “International Brigade”, had triggered an uproar of fury in Croatia and in the Croat communities worldwide.
Enraged by the unexpected scrutiny of the myth according to which instigation and fomenting of the civil war in former Yugoslavia in 1991, and subsequent genocide against Serbs in Croatia resulting in ethnically clean state, were all legitimate “actions” and part of the “war of liberation”, Croats have launched a veritable lynch campaign against Bolivian government and everyone who dares question the motives of the “defenders” in Croatia’s latest “homeland war”.
Consequently, following the latest revelations about the involvement of Croat paramilitaries in the assassination attempts of Bolivian state leadership, Croat Foreign Ministry warned it has instructed its representative in Chile, “who also covers Bolivia”, “to closely follow the situation in Bolivia and if necessary, have talks at the Bolivian Foreign Ministry”.
According to Croat media, their government also considers “sending a diplomatic note” to Bolivian state, to urge toning down of the investigation of the true character of all the “wars of liberation” Croatia lead in its short, rather nasty history.
Philip Goldberg, Ambassador of Ethnic Cleansing
But just in case the **** does hit the proverbial fan this time around, Croat government announced it is ready to distance itself from the mercenaries and psychos it took under its wing during the civil war in the 1990s — those who have unexpectedly found themselves under the unpleasant limelight of public attention:
“However, regardless of who it may be and how much someone deserves credit for the defense of Croatia, the Croatian government cannot be held responsible for the things former defenders are doing at present,” said Jadranka Kosor, minister for veterans and vice president of Croat government.
As far as Bolivians are concerned, nothing will succeed in shutting the floodgates: neither the violent knee-jerk reactions and “warnings” coming from nervous Croats, nor the pressure campaign orchestrated by the Western mainstream media eager to cover up the background of the recent events and shield the key figures involved in a failed coup attempt by portraying Bolivian President Evo Morales as a kook who invented the foiled plot and smearing Bolivian government by suggesting the three hired assassins were killed in cold blood.
Croat Tycoon and US Ambassador of Ethnic Cleansing
According to Bolivian media, neo-Nazi mercenaries who have plotted assassination of a number of Bolivian officials (including some opposition leaders) in an attempt to create chaos in Bolivia akin to the one used to dismember former Yugoslavia and tear the country apart, were in all probability hired by “Don Marinković”, tycoon of Croat nationality who lobbies against the state’s socialist government and leads the separatist movement in Santa Cruz, advocating secession of the richest Bolivian provinces.

According to earlier reports, Marinković has close ties with the current U.S. ambassador in Bolivia Philip Goldberg, who was instrumental in fomenting separatist movements in former Yugoslavia.
A year ago, reporter Roberto Bardini offered less known, but entirely illuminating details about Goldberg’s long history of subversive activities and his connections with the main secessionist in Bolivia, Croat Branko Marinković.
“In the Bolivian diplomatic world, as an expert pusher of separatism, Philip Goldberg’s nickname is ‘the Ambassador of Ethnic Cleansing.’ Between 1994 and 1996 he was Special Assistant to Ambassador Richard Holbrooke, one of the strategists behind Yugoslavian disintegration. He also promoted Serbia’s and Montenegro’s separation and was in Kosovo, where he fomented conflict between Serbian and Albanian forces,” Bardini wrote.

Marinković, whose parents fled to South America after WWII since his father Silvio supported Croat fascists (Ustasha), is accused of becoming one of Bolivia’s richest men through plunder and illegal land grabs in areas inhabited by Guarayo Indians.
According to Bolivian media, Marinković and his compatriots living in Bolivia are trying to break up that country in the same way Croat secessionists have dismembered Yugoslavia in the 1990s. Marinković is accused of seeking to foment a civil war to create a breakaway country in the lowlands, exactly like Tudjman, aided by the Ustasha emigration, Germany and Vatican, has done in former Yugoslavia.
Even though Marinković vehemently denies these allegations, the New York Times quoted his direct threats of instigating a civil war in Bolivia, unless his separatist goal is supported and aided by the “international community” (presumably the same Berlin-Washington-London “international community” that supported violent dismemberment of Yugoslavia).
“If there is no legitimate international mediation in our crisis, there is going to be confrontation. And unfortunately, it is going to be bloody and painful for all Bolivians,” Marinković growled.

Pro-Ustasha Mercenary Terrorists Recruited from Montenegro
Simon Romero, chief New York Times correspondent from Bolivia, told Croat media that Bolivian reporters are investigating rumors the Croat oligarch was bringing pro-Ustasha mercenaries from Montenegro, a legal gray zone in the Balkans, regarded a safe-haven for smugglers and all types of criminals in the region, under the protection of Prime Minister Milo Djukanovic, local mafia boss charged by the Italian prosecution for involvement in large scale smuggling operations since the 1990s.
On Friday, Bolivian security forces shot three and arrested two terrorists belonging to the group of neo-Nazi assassins plotting to behead Bolivian state leadership.
According to Bolivian police chief Victor Hugo Escobar, it was established the leader of the gang of terrorists planning to assassinate President Evo Morales among others, was Eduardo Rozsa Flores, a Spanish-Hungarian national who commanded the “International Brigade” within the infamous Croat paramilitary Zenga units, responsible for horrific atrocities and ethnic cleansing of Serbian population from their ancestral land in Slavonia and Serbian Krajina in Croatia during the 1990s. Flores was also accused of smuggling weapons and narcotics, as well as of killing a Swiss and British reporter who worked for the German EPA news agency and were investigating ties of the mercenaries in the Croat paramilitary troops with the Western fascist groups.
Of the two arrested terrorists, Croat Mario F. Tadic (58) also took part in Tudjman’s war against indigenous Serbian population
Apologies for the poor source of information, there is bound to be factual inacuracies there but the jist of it about marinkovic is true.0 -

BUDAPEST, Hungary _ A Bolivian-Hungarian man killed under mysterious circumstances in Bolivia last week said in a 2008 interview broadcast Tuesday that he was returning to his birthplace to help form a militia to defend the eastern province of Santa Cruz against the national government.Eduardo Rozsa-Flores was one of three men killed in what Bolivian authorities said was a shoot-out at a hotel in the eastern Bolivian city of Santa Cruz. Bolivia claims the group, which also included two men captured by police, was plotting to assassinate Bolivian President Evo Morales.
"I have been called to organize the defense of the city and province of Santa Cruz," Rozsa-Flores said in an interview with Hungarian journalist and television anchor Andras Kepes taped Sept. 8, 2008, but broadcast for the first time Tuesday on state television. "This isn't about me going to the Bolivian jungle to play Che Guevara."
Rozsa-Flores said he was going to be smuggled into Bolivia from Brazil and would start organizing a militia based on the decision of a Santa Cruz Province council.
"There is a legal background" to the mission, Rozsa-Flores claimed in the interview. "I am not going there to attack La Paz or to help organize an attack on the capital and to drive away the president. ... It is the defense which has to be organized, the resistance."
Rozsa-Flores said the militia was expecting to get weapons through illegal channels from both inside Bolivia and abroad and said the aim of the militia was to be a "show of force."
"They won't be marching with flags or bamboo sticks, but with weapons," he said, adding that they wanted to demonstrate that, if Santa Cruz was not allowed greater autonomy, it would be ready to break away from the rest of Bolivia.
"Then we will declare out independence and we will create a new country," Rozsa-Flores said.
He also held Croatian citizenship and fought for Croatia against Serb rebels in the 1991 war that was part of the breakup of Yugoslavia.
According to e-mails received by Kepes, Rozsa-Flores arrived in Bolivia on Oct. 4. He asked Kepes not to use the secret interview until he returned from Bolivia or died. Kepes said it could be considered Rozsa-Flores' "last will and testament."0 -
