Scott,

There simply is no question but what the Wellstone case was pre-mediatated murder. This is the M.O. of the secret government.

Just like Omar Trujillo and Ecuador's President were eliminated several decades ago in mysterious plane "accidents". This was after these two popular and populist leaders opposed the will of American oligarchs. Similarly to Wellstone's well known populism.

This history of Latin American "dirty tricks" from our C.I.A. and Special Forces is the subject of this segment on Democracy NOW! featuring John Perkins, author of "Confessions of an Economic Hit Man".

[Note, there are other segments on the May 17 program that address the sort of antipathy that elite American interests hold toward real democrats in Latin America.]
