Things the School of the Americas is famous for...TORTURE..RAPE..MASS MURDER!
Edited on Mon Jun-29-09 10:02 AM by Joanne98
Better known as the School of Assassins or School of Coups... The SOA has now taken over Honduras.

Anybody supporting this coup is supporting the most evil people in Latin America. And I'd like to add they are also supporting child rapists because the SOA is famous for that too.

If the diplomatic community can't get the dick-tator for a day to step down then I think the Venezuelan military should invade Honduras and restore democracy. The SOA hates democracy and was formed to make sure it never flourished in Latin America. They only protect the interests of the oligarchs. Nothing else.

Also, the Honduras Supreme Court has made a big mistake in supporting this. They are shining a light on the courts which haven't really been examined yet. I'm sure with enough digging the Latin American courts will be full of slime and corruption. Something to talk about and then reform.

The only thing wrong with Latin America is the tiny slimy group of elites who keep the countries in poverty with their endless greed, corruption and selfishness.

This won't stand.

PS.. Once again the so called "war on drugs" gives the US cover for all kinds of nefarious activities. We have troops in Honduras and we don't really know why because they are LYING about what they're really doing. The good ole drug war gets used as a costume to hide in every time. If we are really serious about stopping all this bull shit we have to stop the war drugs.

Human rights concerns

Many of its graduates have been implicated in serious human rights abuses and manuals used at the school appear to condone if not promote the use of torture. <2> This has resulted in a grassroots human rights campaign to close the SOA, led by the organization SOA Watch. Activists opposed to the SOA often refer to the school as the "School of Assassins" and the "School of Coups." <3>

Abuses SOA graduates have alleged to have committed include "the death or disappearance of 200,000 Guatemalans and innumerable other atrocities... In Colombia 2 million have been displaced and thousands are still reliving the horrors of their torture - not surprising since, with 10,000 graduates from the SOA, Colombia is the school's largest customer and has the worst human rights record on the continent." <4>

Like all evil things that get exposed to the light the SOA has tried to hide by changing it's name.

The NEW and improved name of the liars, thieves, child rapists, torturers and mass murderers for money is.........

Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation
