	Tupamaros National Liberation Movement, Uruguay
		The flag of Tupamaros, according to W. Smith [smi80], is the historical Artigas flag defaced with a red star enclosed in a white disc.
		The Tupamaros flag is an Artigas' flag (horizontal triband blue-white-blue with a red diagonal) with a yellow star in the middle.
		Recently the use of this variant of Artigas flag by the Tupamaros leave to a trial, where some people try to forbid the use of this flag to the MLN, because Artigas's flag is a National Symbol of Uruguay and the people that started the trial saw this use as a profanation of the symbol.

	Baader-Meinhof: Terms - Tupamaros
		The Tupamaros were the band of guerrillas that staged a successful, but short-lived coup in Uruguay in the late sixties.
		Until the 1990s, with the advent of Peru's terrorist group "Tupac Amaru," and the recording star Tupac Amaru Shakur, the Tupamaros were the most prominent people to name themselves after the Inca Chief Tupac Amaru, who fought the Spaniards.
		Traditionally stationed in the countryside, the Tupamaros took to the cities and temporarily paralyzed Uruguay's urban capital city Montevideo.

	The Urban Guerrilla in Latin America (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-25)
		Tupamaro is the nickname for the Movement of National Liberation (MLN-Movimiento de Liberación Nacional) and is derived from Tupac Amaru, the leader of an unsuccessful Inca revolt against the Spanish in the late eighteenth century.
		Since their inception, the Tupamaros have hoped to bring about civil war in Uruguay by capitalizing on the discontent generated by a stagnating economy and by encouraging a polarization of political forces.
		The Tupamaros draw considerable support from radical students and lower-level civil servants, who have felt the economic squeeze most; but such support is hardly widespread among the general populace.

		The effects of the Tupamaros (MLN) and Sendero Luminoso (SL) on the political systems of Uruguay and Peru has been significant enough that any study of the political development of these countries must include an examination of their role in the political transformation of Peru and Uruguay.
		The Tupamaros believed that the proximity of their activities to the urban masses whose support they wished to obtain would naturally allow them greater chances for exposure thus enabling the MLN to increase support.
		Following the elections, the Tupamaros were quickly defeated by military forces who had been preparing for the final conflict with the MLN during the MLN's truce of October 1971 to April 1972.

		While the Tupamaros were staging this popular guerrilla theater, the government of Uruguay was, in fact, undergoing changes very different from any the Tupamaros were promoting.
		The Tupamaros also expected that when Mitrione's activities with the police were exposed, even apolitical Uruguayans would concede that he was as natural a target as Moran Charquero or Inspector Juan Maria Lucas, who had been badly wounded by a Tupamaro bullet.
		The Tupamaro cell, which did not foresee a bloody ending any more than Elbrick's abductors had, thought that the large families of two of their victims, and this new family of Jones, would be another reason for the Uruguayan government to yield to their condition.

	Rubenstein \| Living with Terror
		A national terrorist organization called the Tupamaros came out of Uruguay's frustrated middle class and began a campaign of terror and crime which, in its early stages, looked to the public like a Robin Hood approach.
		The organization got to the point where their approach was "We have to destroy in order to rebuild." Their violence touched us all when they kidnapped Dan Mitrione, a USAID advisor to the Uruguayan police, and Gordon Jones, a young economics officer, one Friday morning.
		The Tupamaros, including a group of young people who lived across the street from our house decided that the Ingeniero Rubenstein mentioned in the book was me. That Rubenstein was an Austrian, however, and was at least twenty years older than I. Too bad they hadn’t done their homework a little better.

		In hardly more than a decade, the Tupamaros had made good on their threat: in Uruguay, the former model of democracy, there was now no dancing for anyone.
		In the spring of 1977, a military court finally sentenced a suspected Tupamaro for the killing of Dan Mitrione.

		Meanwhile the Tupamaros are rioting in the streets, and not only those of Caracas.
		The Tupamaros were duly pissed off and decided to run on their own, of course to defend the true revolution of President Chavez and to protect him against the thieves inside the MVR who hide the truth to Chavez.
		By the way, in spite of the clear popular roots of the Tupamaros that cannot be accused of being "white" opposition, as you can see from the above picture, they are already being trashed by servile chavistas such as the mayor of Petare who owes his position to his daddy being the vice president.

		When the military government in that country crushed the group in the 1970s, some of its members fled to places like Caracas, where they rustled up recruits and were one of many vigilante and criminal gangs in the shanties on the western edge of the city.
		During the early years of the Chávez government, the Tupamaros allegedly specialized in executing local hoodlums and drug-traffickers, many of them thought to be in league with crooked cops.

		According to Arturo Porzecanski (1973, Uruguay's Tupamaros: The Urban Guerrilla) the name Tupamaro comes from Tupac Amarû, a famous Inca rebel who in the late 1700s tried to free his people from the Spanish.
		After the defeat of Amarû's forces, Spaniards used the term "tupamaros" to refer to all members of rebellious groups in Latin America.
		In the 1970s, when Uruguay was run by a powerful military dictatorship, many of the Tupamaros rebels, including women, were imprisoned in horribly unsanitary conditions and were brutally tortured.
