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.
Bolivia
- 1971
The vast
Latin American natural resources are the envy of the greedy and
powerful politicians of the United States, who resort to any means to
control them for their own benefit, and never for the people and
countries they brutally exploit. During decades, U.S. multinational
corporations enslaved people in vast regions of Chile, Bolivia and
Peru. When those living under slavery conditions dared to rebel
against their oppressors, they were annihilated in bulk. Che Guevara
felt compelled to go to Bolivia and help the people rise in
revolution.
This was
1967. By then, U.S. mining companies had enslaved entire communities,
including children, who they banned from school. Two years later, Che
Guevara was murdered by the CIA. Once out of their way, CIA officials
established a military regime.
However, the
people again turned on Washington. General Juan Jose Torres took
power and implemented reforms to benefit workers and those living in
poverty. Hope returned to Bolivia and its people, but the CIA would
not allow this to continue. The agency recruited General Hugo Banzer.
He led the coup against Torres and in 1971, he kicked off his violent
dictatorship. He ordered the torture of a number of opposition
leaders and the execution of hundreds of influential political
leaders. He sent about 8,000 other leaders to jail. Washington was
happy.
