Manifest destiny

"The United States supported and in many cases engendered every right wing military dictatorship in the world after the end of the Second World War. I refer to Indonesia, Greece, Uruguay, Brazil, Paraguay, Haiti, Turkey, the Philippines, Guatemala, El Salvador, and, of course, Chile."

They died because they dared to question the status quo, the endless plateau of poverty, disease, degradation and oppression, which had been their birthright."
