From Arbenz to Maduro, Killer Plots of the CIA

By Randy Saborit Mora

Guatemala, Apr 11 (Prensa Latina) Much more about plans inside the CIA will be disclosed in the future, however History already collects plenty evidence relating that spying agency with carrying out distabilizing actions in Latin America.

The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was involved in the Coup d'Etat against Guatemalan President Jacobo Arbenz in 1954, refers to new disclosures the US daily El Nuevo Herald.

The secret CIA base was located 60 years ago in the Northeastern sector of the Opa-locka airport, where preparations were underway in 1953 for a covert operation which resulted in the overthrowing of Arbenz, indicates the Miami newspaper.

An article published in that paper asserts that "several CIA agents who later participated in the failed invasion of Bahia de Cochinos (Cuba) in April, 1961m, worked there for months organizing the intricate logistic details of Pbsuccess, codename of the operation against Arbenz."

...

Salvadoran president, Mauricio Funes, ordered this week an investigation into the participation of rightist sectors of his country in plans to destabilize Venezuela before next Sunday's presidential elections.

1. CIA

Thank you so very much for all of your informed posts and for providing links.

I really enjoy reading them.

Have a great weekend.

P.S. I am a big fan of Hugo Chavez. Still can't wrap my mind around the fact that he is gone. I try to follow what is happening in Venezuela very closely.

History will not be kind to the U.S. for the part it has played in Latin America and many other locations around the globe. The history of the U.S. begin with the genocide of the Native American Indians. It seems they have repeatedly returned to just those tactics and back many leaders that use those tactics to.

2. Thank you so much Sam

I can't wrap my mind around his death either. I'm comforted that he educated his people and left a wealth of speeches and recordings that will comfort and help the revolution for years; such a wealth that they won't be able to water him down the way they did to Martin Luther King.

I'd say more, to agree with your last paragraph, but I think my signature line says it all. Solidarity
