My peace-loving  brethren of Africa - does this tell you anything?  And do you still need to put your faith and hope in our foreign friends who we mistacably, throughout Africa, see as our ONLY redeemers, as our so-called GOOD SAMARITANS, and as those kind and willing "peace-loving" people, and as people who believe in democracy beyond their own borders??!!



My advise is that the longer we sit and wait in hope that they will help us, the more time they get to help their stooges/puppets strengthen their roots throughout the country.

I leave you with this in mind but as for many in the faces of the third world, we have woken up to realise that our problems are created, fueled, supported/sponsored by these very people.

Best regards,

Nyar'Onyango

LATIN AMERICA (1996-97)

Clark, assigned to Panama to lead the US Southern Command, namely, Latin American operations, supplied various regimes that practice terror on their citizenry with a great many military "advisors" and US mercenaries. During this period, Latin America experienced a sharp increase in human rights violations. In Colombia, for example, there were 2,400 political assassinations (not taking into consideration the numerous incidents of people going missing or simply vanishing) committed by the military as well as paramilitary groups that were trained and equipped by Wesley Clark.

    The Objective: a long series of aggressions against Chile, Cuba and many others. It's about waging brutal combat operations against liberation movements in Colombia, Peru, Guatemala, Mexico and Bolivia. It's always done for the purpose of allowing U.S. multi-nationals to continue to keep the upper hand, with respect to economic relations, in Latin America. The fact that these wars were fought far away from news cameras does not diminish Clark's responsibility.
