But there is always endless rhetoric to convince the gullible that the US understands and "cares". Rhetoric is cheap.<br /><br />What is required is for Latin America to delink from the US, and for the people of the US to realize the damage that has been done in the process of realizing it's goals in the region.<br /><br />The US cannot adequately provide security, education, and healthcare for it's own citizenry. These people, the leaders of the US, are the last people that should be giving policy advice the the nations they have hobbled for decades on end.<br /><br />Their best thinking is evident in the present condition of Iraq and Afghanistan. <br /><br />Please, US, stay away from everyone. Seek psychiatric help, take care of your own house, and make it a goal to pay reparations for the millions of people you have killed and maimed.<br /><br />Deformed children are born every year in Vietnam from your crazed and cynical use of chemical weapons on the brave people of that country--and similar problems are happening in Fallujilah, Iraq.<br /><br />The people of the Americas are already moving beyond your cruel ideology and sadistic tutaledge.<br /><br />Word.Slave Revoltnoreply@blogger.com
