"The old criticism about death squads in third world countries threatened by Soviet domination were a successful propaganda ploy by the Soviets that our own left swallowed whole." what are you talking about, both the Soviets and U.S. employed death squads for propaganda. Nicarauga, El Salvador, Costa Rica and other countries had death squads trained by the CIA.

You did notice that Reagan's policy in Central America was successful, right? And that we won the Cold War? We can endure carping, if our case is made to the American people.......

Trying to sanitize the past to make the future more palatable won't work. There's too much of it and fully documented. Most recently, ultra-right paramilitary squads are killing union workers by the dozen in Columbia while the employers,American companies, look the other way. This is not sanctioned by the US govt. of course, but it's a sideshow to our "Drug War."
