Clandestine explosion at Hidalgo, Mexico

[angelburst29]

Colombia started the 2019 with a terribly bomb explosion in a military school
and then this sad event in Mexico. I`m wondering if is not a symbolic warning about bad times approaching to Sud-America...Wait and see...

I wonder if there is something more than "a symbolic warning" in the works here?

The Tlahuelilpan explosion happened on a Pemex pipeline which is part of Mexico's own refineries.

Along with the car bomb attack in Colombia, there was a bomb attack on the Transandino pipeline, owned by Colombian state-run oil company Ecopetrol SA.

Colombian state-run oil company Ecopetrol SA said on Sunday a bomb attack on the Transandino pipeline caused spillage in southwestern Narino close to the border with Ecuador. The pipeline was not operating on Saturday during the attack, the first this year. There were 16 attacks in 2018, the company said.

Ecopetrol did not say who was responsible for the bombing or when the pipeline would return to service.

The 306-km (190-mile) Trasandino pipeline has capacity to transport about 85,000 barrels of crude daily from fields in Putumayo Province to the Pacific Ocean port of Tumaco, from where it is exported.

well ... in the case of Mexico, I think is not that related, Pemex had been having a large 40 years+ of never ending warnings and, not just with the huachicoleros of the common and white collar ones ... other issues as well, like corruption, conflict of interests and the like ...

When I saw the images of the burned people could not avoid to go back to San Juanico's explosion San Juanico disaster - Wikipedia ... it was in the 19th November 1984 ...again with the 19th! (same day as the lasts earthquakes --damages, death and destruction-- in 1985 and 2017)

This is an interview with journalist Ana Lilia Perez, author of the book "El Cartel Negro" in which it explains how organized crime takes over Pemex, her latest book, which I'm reading, very good one so far, "Pemex Rip" -the history of Pemex and how it was it was annihilated throughout the decades. Do no mind much the interviewer, Brozo is a character interpreted by Victor Trujillo (well known to mexicans).

So then, it would be interesting what would be the outcome of the investigation of the explosion en Tlahuelilpan.

The video has subtitles in english.

Add: the translated subtitles has funny meanings but you can get the idea, I think

The explosion last Friday occurred after hundreds of people crowded in to collect gasoline gushing from a pipeline that had been ruptured by suspected fuel thieves near to the town of Tlahuelilpan in the state of Hidalgo.

Hidalgo’s government said in a statement that 96 people had been confirmed dead from the explosion, the worst to affect Mexico’s troubled oil infrastructure in several years. Another 48 people were receiving treatment for their injuries, it added.

The one in Colombia was sorrounded in secrecy, particularly due to the newly elected president’s reosance with Uribe’s (former president) war footing. The whole thing was blamed on ELN and if proven or even if the public is convinced of it, would put a stop on the peace process that was underway. Perpetual war.

Indeed Alejo.I suspect than many old sleeping conflicts that had Central and South America submerged in chaos in the ´80 will begin to be reactivated through false flag attacks. I fear that end could await Evo morales and Bolivia and all those countries that do not obey the status quo...Perpetual war...
