Glad to see you mention SOA. There is now, and has been for a while, SOAW - School of the Americas Watch. Check it out. An yes, the disasters that are happening right now go back decades...of failed US foreign policy, and worse. There is a book called 'Open Veins, 500 Years...' which chronicles five centuries of northern domination and brutalization of southern countries. The ex-president of Honduras, Manuel Zelaya, tried to give a copy of the book to Obama, and HRC got her feathers ruffled over that, and what ensued was the para-military coup of 2009, from which Honduras has still not recovered.
Historic turnout in Honduran elections to oust US-backed regime
November 29, 2021- Euphoria reigned in the streets of Honduras on the night of Sunday, November 28, 2021, as it appeared that massive turnout of voters propelled the opposition candidate, Xiomara Castro, to the presidency.
12 years after the National Party took power in the 2009 military coup, Hondurans resoundingly rejected them at the ballot box. Historic turnout appeared to overcome the ruling party’s vote buying and attempts to cling to power. With 51.45% of the vote counted as of Monday morning, Xiomara Castro led the ruling party candidate by nearly 20 points, with 53.61% of the vote.
