ITV screened John Pilger's must-see documentary 'The War on Democracy' the other night... a very interesting look at US 'interference' in Latin America... 'interference' being one of these terms like 'collateral damage' that really doesn't cover the complicity in murder, torture and theft of natural resources that has been endemic in latin america for the past 50 years. I've spent quite some time on the continent myself, and have seen first-hand the poverty and ruination caused by US imperialism in the region. It warms the bottom of my heart to see Chavez & Evo Morales sticking two fingers up at their powerful neighbours, and implementing policies that actually benefit the people of their countries rather than a military junta and their US multinational backers.
i was interested to see what you all thought about this.
