I see some other people are working on this page as well. Anyway, I am finding it difficult to find information on the early life of Ollanta (even from sources in Spanish), everything I can find is from the 2000 revolt onward. If anyone can find some information on his early life and how he became a solider it would be very much appreciated. There has to be some important/interesting stuff, he was a military officer during the whole Shining Path rebellion. Also, I'm pretty messed up with the whole "image policy" situation, if someone can find an image of Ollanta to find that would be great. Thank you.--] 18:02, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

== Newspaper ==

About a year ago, the ] handed me a newspaper named "Ollanta." The webpage of this paper, which hasn't been updated in years, can be seen here . Anyway, about a month ago I saw the same newspaper, with the same exact format and tagline ("The Nationalist Press that Peru Needs"), only it had been renamed "]." Has the Movimiento Etnocacerista abandoned Ollanta? Are they supporting his more radical brother? There is also a building with a very large banner in ] that simply says "Humala Presidente" and has a picture of Antauro. It also has the symbol of a political party. I don't know what party is backing Antauro, but its symbol is a bean-shaped seed sprouting a plant. Is Antauro actually running against his brother? --] 22:40, 19 January 2006 (UTC)

:As far as I know Antauro Humala is still in prision and facing trial for his rebelion on Abancay. He attempted to run for congress under a minor political party , but the JNE rejected his candidacy in the grounds that he is facing trial. ] 00:07, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

I think that there may be some truth to it. My cousin, who is Peruvian (as in actually born and raised their not Peruvian-American) told me something a bit similar. There was a difference though, he said it wasn't Antauro but another one of Humala's brothers. But I am pretty sure that there is at least another Humala brother running in the election. Other things of interest is the father of the Humalas, Isaac Humala. He put all his children in military school from early on for 'amor de la patria'. Some links, the second one is an interview with Isaac Humala on Peru.com -] 22:56, 23 January 2006 (UTC)

::It is correct: Ollanta Humala and '''Ulises Humala''' are running for President in 2006. Ulices is more identified with Antauro, and has declared that his brother Ollanta no longer represents the ''radical'' change that Peru needs. ] 00:03, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

==Union for Peru or Peruvian Nationalist Party?==
Which one is it? From my understanding he founded the PNP but is running under a coalition ticket of the Union for Peru and the Peruvian Nationalist Party. However, the article doesn't make that clear.-] 02:35, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

He was forced to make a deal with Union of Peru in order to participate in the elections. His party, the Peruvian Nationalist's, didn't manage to get the authorisation (not enought votes) for running a Presidential Candidate from the '''Jurado Nacional de Elecciones'''. In these way, Union of Peru launched his bid to the presidency. ] 02:50, 28 January 2006 (UTC)
:I'd actually like to see some information on how this came to be in the article. I, however, have no idea how some no-name party like "Y Se Llama Peru" got on the ballot but Humala, who has a substaintal amount of support in Peru, was unable to even get his own party on the ballot. --] 16:24, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
::I would say that Union of Peru was a far more neutral name for his ideas. I think that he broke up with the most radical elements of the Peruvian Nationalist Party. ] 17:27, 13 April 2006 (UTC)
:::So which was it? Was he forced to make a deal with the UPP, or did he abandon the PNP? If he just wanted to get rid of the name "nationalist," why does he persist in using that word in his campaign? I really don't understand the situation.--] 00:42, 14 April 2006 (UTC)
::::Messhermit got it right. But he was not actually "forced" as in receiving coercion; he had to make an alliance with Unión por el Perú (UPP), because the "Partido Nacionalista Peruano" (PNP) didn't get enough signatures for its inscription. Humala's party was always PNP, but ran for president leading an alliance with UPP (which was related with the moderate Javier Pérez de Cuéllar, ex General Secretary of the UN). After the elections, some members of the alliance disbanded, led by Torres Caro -an elected congressman-. Right now the alliance faces a schism -both parties ran separated on the Regional elections-, and there are some reports that Humala will form a new party.] 22:38, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

==IP edits==
There have been some IP edits that I am considering reverting. I'll wait for comments. On a side note, it is ridiculous Misplaced Pages policy to continue to allow IP's to edit articles.-] 21:36, 30 January 2006 (UTC)

:It complement some points, but also promotes some POV. ] 00:20, 31 January 2006 (UTC)

"Andean Stormtroopers"? This guy seems to be adding POV left and right. The only thing of value added is some stuff about Isaac Humala who was in fact a Communist lawyer who put his 7 kids through military schools. I'm going to revert most of the POV stuff, if anyone has a problem with it you should voice it here. If you check, the same IP is also making edits in other pages related to this page-] 05:24, 31 January 2006 (UTC)
:Links don't have to be NPOV, and it's not like the guy is only adding stuff from the right -- he also linked to the Maoist ''El Diario'' --] 03:33, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
::Links can be POV, and in that sence I would say that they must be readed by a wikipedist and determine if they are POV or NPOV. I would not say that Maoist newspapers are the most reliable ones... ] 05:04, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
:::To be fair, ''El Diario'' seems to be more moderate now. At least they aren't the clear mouthpiece of the Shining Path anymore like they used to be. But in any event, links can obviously be POV, even extremely POV; after all, we do link to the campaign's webpage. The one blatant NPOV violation that I saw with the IP was the reference to Ollanta as an "ideolouge." That kind of language is obviously loaded. --] 08:36, 4 February 2006 (UTC)

==Human Rights Violations?==
The following was recently added to the article:
:Humala has also been accused of torturing peasants under ''nom de guerre'' "El Capitan Carlos" ("Captain Carlos") during the 1980s. While he and the PNP have denied the accusations, and that he ever used such a pseudonym, his brother ] recently stated that Humala certainly used such a name during their activities.

Is "El Universal" a reliable source? I've never heard of it before. And are there any other sources which back the claims?-] --Jersey Devil 01:30, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

An Update, I've found these articles in La Republica about it. -] 02:46, 9 February 2006 (UTC)

---

"El Universal" is not a reliable source but the case of Ollanta's Human Right Violations apears to be a true case. Because the army has burned all documents about the case to protect its officials.
About reliable information, you can find it in : "La República" "El Comercio" "Perú 21" "RPP":

http://www.elcomercioperu.com.pe/online/
http://www.larepublica.com.pe/
http://www.peru21.com.pe/
http://www.rpp.com.pe/portada/

:It should be noted that Ollanta claims that the Flores campaign is behind these accusations, and that the cicha press is acting in collusion with her party. This may sound like a wild accusation for Ollanta to make, but the press in Peru does have a history of spreading misinformation on behalf of political candidates. Montesinos regularly paid off TV stations. --] 21:49, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

==Ollanta´s Political Orientation==
Ollanta is consider a leftist because of his admiration to the General Velasco's government in Perú and because of his friendship with Chavez. Also because he wants to make public some private enterprises. (State economy) But this is seen also in Hitler's National Socialist (Nazi) economy.
Then the topic that differences socialist measures with a fascist inclination is citizenship. Ollanta is a fascist, in his government only ancient inca's race will have the right to be citizens. Other “races” like white or chinese will have less rights and could not be called “Peruvians”.

Socialist or liberals leftists think this racism is unacceptable.
Simplifying the political Peruvian spectrum will be something like this:
Left: Socialists , Center: liberals, Right: Conservatives, Extreme Right: fascist

Chimuelfuerte

:Feel free to add that if you have a source, but I doubt that you're going to find one. No one in Peru would ever say that their "race" is "Inca." That would be a misunderstanding of the word Inca. The closest you might get to that is someone who said that their race is Quechua or Serrana. I would be shocked if Humala said that he was going to revoke the citizenship of people who aren't Serrano, first because that would be extremely radical and second because that would lose him the election -- most people in Lima probably consider themselves Mestizo. --] 21:55, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

:::The good thing about Peru is that the issue of race is not always an important factor in any type of Elections. President Toledo attempted to gather that (portraying himself as a ''Cholo'') in contrast to President Fujimori (nicknamed ''Chino'') and it didn't succed. He was only able to win the 2001 election because of the overwhelming anti-Alan García vote. I don't believe that Humala is gonna be dumb enought to play that card. ] 15:25, 12 February 2006 (UTC)

::::I would add to that that simply playing up your ethnic roots isn't really akin to racism and certainly doesn't lead to the revocation of citizenship for everyone else. All Peruvian politicians put on a chullo every now and then -- it's no different than Bush putting on a cowboy hat. Toledo certainly didn't revoke the citizenship rights of mestizos, and Ollanta isn't going to either. On a side note, I always think that Ollanta looks a little silly in his poncho and chullo while standing in front of a ] -- the guy is obviously light-skinned. A cholo he isn't. --] 18:21, 12 February 2006 (UTC)


::::::Im glad you are positive. I agree with the example of Messhermit that race hasen't played a determinant role in elections before. But that doesn't mean it can play it on this elections or that Ollanta had said it many times. I have seen he on TV. About he being "cholo" i don't think he is because he is not, he is "mestizo".What diferences the case of Toledo saying he is Cholo from Ollanta is that Toledo didn't use the subject of the race like a subject of campain. And that he uses negatively.

Vargas Llosa, Perú's famous writer writes about it. http://www.vcrisis.com/index.php?content=letters/200601231434 ] 02:42, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

Vargas Llosa is not exactly a source that I would call NPOV. He is actually famous not only for his writting skills, but also because of his out-of-context political remarks in Peru. ] 04:55, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

:Bringing up the issue of race with regards to the ethnocaceristas is fine. However, as Messhermit pointed out at Misplaced Pages the foremost important issue (especially with regards to political issues) is keeping them NPOV. And as Messhermit pointed out, Vargas Llosa is not an NPOV source. He is a stanch market liberal, Thatcherite, and ran for the Peruvian Presidency. So he is not an apolitical figure, nor do I think that "Venezuela-Crisis" is a NPOV source. A good idea would be to say "Mario Vargas Llosa, a champion of the free-market, writer, and former Presidential hopeful, says this about Ollanta Humala or argues this about the use of race in political elections.....".-] 10:58, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

::I would say that is better to avoid such controvertial quotes. Vargas Llosa is too overrated regarding political opinions. ] 14:24, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
:::Interstingly enough, the article itself makes corrects a mistake that I find a lot of Americans seem to make: that Latin Americans use the term "raza" in the same way that people from the United States do. Llosa argues that Humala is a "misti" because his father has money. You never hear of English-speakers talk about race in terms like that. A white person who had a poor father isn't considered "black" in the United States. Since this is the English wikipedia, we should be careful when we talk about the Latin American conception of race. One other thing -- Llosa doesn't claim that Ollanta Humala would revoke the citizenship of mitis. He claim that Ollanta Humala's father hypocrtically would. --] 00:21, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
::::That's not entirely accurate. "Race" and "class" are no more or no less arbitrary than in the United States. In the US, color and class typically exist as separate entities (people of any given class is not typically assumed to belong to any given ethnic group since there is a strong belief that while "race" is biological and fixed, class mobility is more fluid). In Latin America, race and class are elided and often contradictory. I have frequently heard in Peru the term "cholo" used as a derogatory term for people from the Andean region AND to describe all Peruvians nationalistically. While it is true that color metaphors exist to describe class with less apparent regard for the physical features of the people described, the abundance of racial terms that have everything to do with physical features, and nothing to do with class, strongly suggests that Latin Americans are no more (or less) color blind than Americans: negro (strongly African), mulato (mixed white and black), moreno (between negro and mulato), rubio (white, blond), trigueno (white, brunette), indigena (indigenous), mestizo (mixed indigenous and European), zambo (mixed black, white and indigenous) and add to all of these terms "claro" or "oscuro" to refer to relative lightness or darkness of the skin tones within each category (while also remembering that there is acknowledgement of the significant degree of mixture between these "discrete" groups). I'm not from the area, so I'm sure that my brief description is just scratching the surface. Kemet 10 April 2006


Calling Ollanta "left-leaning" obscures issues more than it clarifies them. It is hard to see how it adds any information to what is already in the article. ] 22:02, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

"No one in Peru would ever say that their "race" is "Inca." That would be a misunderstanding of the word Inca."
I've lived in Huancayo for almost 9 months now and don't agree with you. Many people I've talked to use the word "inca" as a race and are very proud of their "inca-race". How correct it is is not so important to them as they use it more to show that they're proud of their country's history but not so much the modern corruption. All feelings I got from many conversations, no facts but this is the talking section right?
--] 15:35, 8 May 2006 (UTC)

Demagogy in Peru works around class-oriented feelings, if it didn't work for Toledo once it's safe to assume that Fujimori did heavily altered results. Last presidential elections were a disgrace with the four higher results being obtained by people of dubious political attitudes (A testaferro to Fujimori, a wanna-be-blender of church and state, a former cause of inflation and this left-right blender) and all appealed to some form of demagogy. The first of my list used the memories of apparent improvement cause by Fujimori (and promised his return), the second relied both on her traditional-right bend and fear of Garcia and Humala, the third used demagogy to promise better life for everyone with his hypnotic speeches while the fourth one spoke nothing of projects, he was all "thy nation, thy race".

Humala worked through hate, much like most peruvian left, he is right wing but like his left-wing allies his ideology (and that of his radical family) is skin-deep. The radicalism both in him and his allies is merely an expression of their gut feelings and desires in a pseudo-rational way, they never stop to digest through them rationally. I've meet enough peruvian left to understand their basic claim is "Marx is right 'cause without food I cannot think". It's clear those would join with a party which says "Traditional politics are bad 'cause whites wont let us eat". Neither understand or are profound in ideology, they just have it as the cryptic coat of arms of their battle for a better life, both for them and for those who, by sharing their common goal, would aid them earn it.

Nonetheless Humala is a leader and he deserves some more credit than mere interest in the welfare of himself and those who will aid him. He sticks to his own kind of fascism as it ensures a stronger grip in any resulting power, but joins forces with anyone who will concede and whom he can manipulate. Can he manipulate Chavez, Castro and/or Morales? At least he thaught they would never manipulate him (he saw them as equals) and he probably hoped to manipulate them eventually, nonetheless their help would be apreciated as they materialize his goal. I doubt he is currently manipulated by anyone besides his wife and either or both lead his rise through sheer ambition all along. His ties to Montesinos could be true, not a puppet 'though but a mercenary working for pieces of power to collect.

Now, before you think I'm biased I must say, I consider myself a moderate left-wing pro-anarchist (i.e. somewhere between slightly to the left of absolute center and out of any lines). He has used race to get bias in his favour for a lot of resentment has been bred from power misuse by an elite heir to european conquerors and that serves a lot on a country which is, primarily, non-european in ancestry. The same resentment lead to the terrorist organizations of the past succeeding and an intellectual banner which lack of education makes mostly shallow in a country where deep culture is a high luxury.

== Humala admite que se llamó Capitán Carlos ==

Humala admite que se llamó Capitán Carlos
El caso de los presuntos abusos que habría cometido el ahora candidato a la Presidencia Ollanta Humala, durante su paso por el Alto Huallaga, en 1992, adoptó un nuevo matiz luego de que el propio aspirante al sillón de Pizarro admitiera a un canal extranjero que sí usó el seudónimo de 'capitán Carlos' cuando dirigió la base contrasubversiva de Madre Mía, en Tingo María.

If you actually go to those links and see the Jorge Ramos interview you can clearly see that Humala does not say that he is the "Capitan Carlos Gonzales" which is the supposed person being accused of human rights abuses in Madre Mia, but that he was one of various people who used the psuedonym "Carlos". Also, please do not c&p blogs or articles (which I have removed) into this talk page, that is not what talk pages are for.--] 03:34, 4 March 2006 (UTC)

==POV Link Removed==
I just removed from the external links. The title of the article is "Mi Lucha, version andina" i.e., Mien Kampf the Peruvian/Andean Version. And when you go the the article on the subtitle you see (translated from Spanish) "The neonazi ideas of Presidential Candidate Ollanta Humala". This is not NPOV stuff (at least to add with the other NPOV links), some IP added it a while ago and I didn't notice. Probably the same group of IPs who go around adding blogs in the talk pages of Peru-related articles. What do you guys think? Maybe make an "anti-Humala" section for links.--] 02:41, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

:But allowing an anti-Humala section wouldn't be an attempt to portray a clearly critic POV against him? Several of the accusations that he is facing are not concrete and rely on unnacurate sources. ] 15:23, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

==Stop Adding Blogs==

I don't know where these IP edits are coming from (possibly vandals from Spanish Misplaced Pages) but I just had to erase yet another one. This is a talk page to talk about things that are relevant to the articles, not blogs! Please stop this immediately!--] 04:57, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Anyway, I just added the info about Issac Humala's comments on Guzman and the other Shining Path leaders. Just incredible. Ollanta Humala had an interview about it, I'll add the audio links to as sources to the article. I also think that we definately have to make some changes to the "Ideology" section as it makes it sound as if he and his brother share very much of the same views whilst Antauro and others consider more radical then Ollanta have criticized his canidacy.--] 05:17, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

:For the person who was offended by Jersey Devil's reference to vandals, please read more carefully. He made no statement that essentially connected "Spanish speakers" and "vandals." Whatever connection exists is contingent, not essential. In fact, it's clear from his comment that he does NOT consider the two categories identical. Their being vandals has nothing to do with their language nor their comments, but everything to the way they insert comments between other comments (as this "random Spanish reader" did) or the way they engage in revert wars. ] 05:02, 5 June 2006 (UTC)

== Pardoned by Congress section ==

In the section "Pardoned by Congress", in the final paragraph, it must be said that as a consequence of the January 2005 etnocacerist insurrection, four reservists were killed. At least one reservist was executed while laying wounded. The scene has been videotaped.

Another comments coming from Ollanta Humala's environment:

The mother of Ollanta Humala recently told the press that she would execute "a couple of gays" in order to prevent "indecency in the streets".

His brother Antauro, declared that he will execute president Toledo and all the senators, under charge of corruption.

The same Ollanta Humala, in august 2005, declared that president Toledo was no longer the president and that insurgency was neccessary.

His aide, Carlos Torres Caro, running for the second vice-presidency, declared that he'll ask for life prison sentences for the journalist accused of diffamation. However, two days later he sorried for that declaration.

Finally, the speaker of the nationalist party, Daniel Abugattas, declared that the first lady, Mrs. Elian Karp was a "hija de puta". Because of this declaration, M. Abugattas was removed from the post of speaker of the nationalist party, however, he is still running for the congress. So...

:EDIT: This peruvian would like to add it was not a "couple".

== Peru's Inca Heritage ==
The statement "The name etnocacerista itself is composed of two parts the first evoking ethnic identity, particularly a strong identification with the country's Incan Native American origins" needs revision, as the ], who used ] as the lingua franca by the time of the Spanish invasion, should not be confused as the cultural ancestors of Peru's current Quechua-speaking population. Quechua gained further influence during colonization and through the Church, but the millions of people who have sinced learned the language belong to hundreds of ethnic groups that have little to do with the Inca other than the use of Quechua (which was probably not even the original language of the Inca's ancestors).

==Juan Velasco or Caceres?==

I was thinking of maybe changing the picture in the "ideology" section from Caceres to Juan Velasco.

Interesting video, but I don't think it is a secret to anyone that Humala is supported by socialists and leftists in Peru (and it is the PCP-PR not the Peruvian Socialist Party). If anything the more interesting part of that video is that it shows Humala at a political meeting with his father (with whom he has distanced himself during the campaign) and with representatives of Cuba, Palestine, and China.--] 21:18, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

::hes not really supported by all socialists and leftists, theres nothing more dis-united than the left in Peru, Ollanta might have some left-wing views, but that doesnt mean that all the left-wing supports him, some see him as a authoritarian wanna-be, some support him just because hes not garcia while others because chavez supports him.

== Again me ==

Above, "LatinGayOne" states that Ollanta Humala had some connection with the ], though, on the video I noticed my aunt (Ollanta Humala) was on a reunion of the "Patria Roja" (the communist one I think) political party. It should also be noticed that the peruvian ] was founded recently on winter (CA) 2005; but that video is older (2004), so all these things means LatinGayOne is wronged and Ollanta Humal has no connection with socialist party (It would've been good).--] 00:24, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

==Good Article==
I've listed this article as being a good one because I think it is complete and well-sourced. It does get a little rambly at times and could maybe use a bit of a copyedit (in English, "In/On Month date, year" phrases are followed by a comma), but overall, it's quite good.

I don't know who Alonso Vargas is, but I know he's not Humala's father. I assume it's the guy who keeps editing this page. Whoever it is knows better, his ISP is Telefonica del Peru. --] 06:42, 19 November 2006 (UTC)

== Regional elections results ==

After the schism of the Unión por el Perú-Partido Nacionalista Peruano alliance Humala's political position was weakened. The results of the recent Regional Elections has been widely discussed, and his future is at least unclear. I have included all of this information with many sources, only to be reverted by ].

I'd like to know the position of other users, because I have doubts about the neutrality of such as a revert. I don't feel biased against Humala, and in fact I feel he has been criticised without basis a number of times; but his latest political weakening has been widely documented and discussed in Peru.

My version was:

He was tipped as a major political force in Peru,<ref>Lemoine, Maurice, , ''Le Monde diplomatique'', November2006</ref> but that position was disrupted by his alliance's schism in the Congress <ref>, ''Peru 21'', June 13, 2006 {{In lang|es}}</ref> <ref>, ''La República'', June 13, 2006 {{In lang|es}}</ref> and the defeat of his party in the Regional Elections held in November 2006, <ref>Tanaka, Martín, , ''Peru 21'', November 21, 2006 {{In lang|es}}</ref> <ref>, ''Peru 21'', November 21, 2006 {{In lang|es}}</ref> where they couldn't get any candidate elected as regional leaders in regions where he had a great majority of the votes in the Presidential elections. <ref>, ''Living in Peru'', November 20, 2006</ref> Humala's position has weakened, <ref>Vecchio, Rick, , ''Sun-Sentinel'', November 14, 2006</ref> something he has even admitted, and he is supposed to be forming a new party. <ref>, ''Agencia Peru'', October 18, 2006 {{In lang|es}}</ref>

This article appears to have been a victim of ] back during the 2006 election. The "Political career" section appears to be largely about notable (and some not so notable) events during the campaign.

in the opening paragraph it states that he enlisted in the peruvian army. if he graduated from a military institute/school and entered as an officer that would mean that he commissioned not enlisted. any reason why this is wrong and should not be changed?
