America's best kept secret is the SOA

[BURNING MAN]

When did Chelsea Clinton’s marriage plans or Tiger Woods’ health issues become important headline stories? These issues don’t affect us, but they continue to steal air time from important issues, such as the countless murders or violations of human rights linked to SOA graduates.

The worst or possibly best kept secret in the United States is the School of the Americas, currently referred to as the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation. WHISC is a combat training school for Latin American soldiers as well as a Department of Defense facility on the grounds of Ft. Benning located near Columbus, Georgia.

The SOA has been located in Ft. Benning since 1984 but it was first established in Panama as The Latin American Training Center – U.S. Ground Forces in 1946. Over its 59 years of existence, the SOA has trained more than 60,000 Latin American soldiers and policemen, according to www.thefirstpost.co.uk. Many of the soldiers that graduate from the SOA are habitual human rights violators and are essentially brainwashed due to their training.

The SOA soldiers are trained in counterinsurgency techniques, sniper training, commando and psychological warfare, as well as military intelligence and interrogation tactics, according to http://soaw.org.

In 1996 the Pentagon was pressured by the public to release the SOA training manuals that had been used for years. “These manuals advocated torture, extortion, blackmail and the targeting of civilian populations,” according to http://soaw.org.

From Bolivian dictator Hugo Banzar, who arrested 3,000 of his political opponents, killed 200 of them and tortured the rest, to the Argentine dictator Leopoldo Galtieri who was responsible for the torture and murder of over 30,000 dissidents, the SOA has produced numerous dictators as well as vicious oppressors. The school has even trained some of the founders of Los Zetas, a mercenary army for one of Mexico’s largest drug-trafficking groups known as the Gulf Cartel, as well as the leader of El Salvador death-squad, Major Roberto D’Aubuisson....

Agreed. I feel that also the diversionary tabloid tactics used for so long are becoming harder to convince the poplious and due to the spread and freedoms enjoyed by the internet and other media which oppressive states are so keen to deny to its people, it is harder for certain authorities to cover up unsaverable facts. I feel that, as in so many cases we see, the 'powers' divert the aatentions of the man in the street with benine trifes hoping that anyone with an above average IQ will be distracted. It does not work and we are here. FOREVER (Why have I got men in black knocking at my door lol )

We the "uneducated populace" like mushrooms (kept in the dark and fed bullshit), are expected to to swallow the proliferation of crap that constantly overwelms the majority, through predigested media, tv and main stream paper's, nothing but superficial information and sensational entertianment blinds us from the BIG picture! IMO...
