    The United States is now openly acting as an aggressor. Under Trump the mask of democratic values has dropped and the country is no longer fucking around. It for sure is about to find out though.

  2. = No source gosh gallop slop. Just taking one example, there was no coup in the “1980s” in Nicaragua. Having entire decades listed as a “coup” gives away the game.

    “The list is not completed. You can update it to make it more comprehensive.”

    Not a total US takeover but a clear assist in 1911 to help the United Fruit Company (AKA Dole Banana) to install a gov’t favorable to their continued domination of the Honduran economy leading to the creation of the term “Banana Republic” …(**U.S. officials/forces acted to protect U.S. banana interests** in Honduras; Taft sent **U.S. Marines in 1911–1912** to protect American banana investments)

    Ah yes, the famous “intervention” in the 1976 Argentine Coupe, of which Americans helped the military junta by, let me check my notes again; one person saying the US would not stop it. Seriously. There is plenty of American interventionism in Latin America, no need to make shit up.

  6. I am not surprised. The US explicitly gave itself the right to intervene in the americas as they please, with the Monroe doktrine.

    The USA is not bound by the party of the President when it come to coups…

    1952- Truman (D)

    1962- Kennedy (D)

    1964 and 1965- Johnson (D)

    1980- Carter (D)

    Dominican Republic 1916.

    The first American intervention was what gave DR Trujillo and the second one in ’65 gifted us Balaguer. 53 years in total of two of the most heinous monsters of the 20th Century.

    CAN WE ALSO ADD PUERTO RICO. Just because Puerto Rico is a COLONY doesn’t mean that they weren’t illegally invaded and occupied by a foreign military. Puerto Rico is a military base now and will be used during this madness.

  10. the US had nothing to do with the Argentinian 1976 coup.

    this is a dogshit propaganda post.

    At that time, the KGB was operating there, organizing terrorist cells, and the CIA could not help but intervene.

  12. I read a lot of ancient history and states bullying each other whilst trumpeting their right to do so is tedious. Which ignores the fact that it could be you or me getting blown up for the sake of a stupid greedy oligarchy.

  13. And those countries all started doing great! This time it’s gonna be different fellas! /s

  14. Can anyone explain Venezuela 2002? I’m reading about it and they even warned Chavez that there was going to be a coup which he disregarded. I don’t see evidence of any support.

    This makes me question the entire list, I know they have indeed supported a lot of coups militarily and with Intelligence but it seems someone took a lot of liberties here.

    There was no proved intervention in Brazil in 1964. It was all homegrown.
