The United
States has been intervening covertly and overtly in many countries
since the late 1800s, however the CIA's first black ops date back to
the World War II after Harry S. Truman signed the act by which the
agency was created on July 26, 1947. The Central Intelligence Agency
is responsible for terrorism, assassinations, military coups and
rebellions around the globe and has deceitfully used many NGOs guised
as organisms that promote human rights, democracy, freedom and
economic development, including USAID, NED and IRI, just to mention a
few.
Their true
objective is imperialist in nature. The U.S. has interest in every
country, be it for its natural resources, cheap labor force or
because of its strategic geographical location.
In order to
meet its goals, the CIA recruits influential, intellectual and
charismatic personalities. The agency also resorts to threats,
kidnapping, torture, enforced disappearances and assassinations. The
organization incites violence, uprisings and military rebellion, and
causes economic chaos and misery to the people through scarcity of
basic foods and so on. The CIA has been exposed on a number of
occasions through documented evidence, leaks of information and
whistleblowing by active and former agents.
Haiti
- 1959
Haiti is
equally strategic to the United States as are the Dominican Republic
and Cuba. So, Washington doesn't hesitate when their brutal control
appears to wane in the Caribbean. Under no circumstance, would the
U.S. allow governments in the region to lean to the left, and if they
dare to, the CIA steps in to push them back to the right. Of course,
Cuba is a rare example of resilience to U.S. efforts to achieve
hegemony in the area. Since 1959, the Cuban revolution of Fidel
Castro has repealed the relentless U.S. attacks.
But in
Haiti, the story is different. In 1959 as well, popular discontent
rose against the brutal puppet of the U.S., Francois Duvalier. The
CIA stepped in and stomped it immediately. With the help of the
intelligence agency, Duvalier wasted no time and created an army to
violently repress all those who rose up against him.
He and his
heir to the regime, Jean Claude Duvalier, ordered massacres that were
so horrendous they defy words. Over 100,000 people were murdered. And
in 1986, when a new but uncontrollable rebellion took over, a U.S.
Air Force plane rescued Jean Claude and took him to France so he
could live in peaceful luxury.
