1) The manual is a How To; the preamble about human rights is a cover/joke win-nudge thing, like the lead into any " How to make a bomb in your home." book has. It's a legendary book in intelligence circles, and books ahave evenbeen written about it's use. 2) The Dulles circumvented legislation to enact all kinds of deadly plots. Not just for the argument; they make interesting reading. 3) Which name led the death squads? Huh? Clarify please...or are you actually asking me for the CIA operatives names'!?!? They don't release information like that, even when they dicslose operations...for obvious reasons. I hope your not implying that, without agents' names ( which we will never get...unless their spouse reveals a Bush administration lie) that somehow counteracts revealed operations and documented regimes we trained/supported/oversaw/helped organize. That would be w terribly weak argument.
I meant which names that you gave me implemented death squads. I don't know if the disclaimer is neccessarily a wink wink nudge nudge kind of thing.
1) Sorry, my mistake. Ok: God, have to go back and see who was on the list...Death squad check list; The Shah, the military junta which followed Aristide in Haiti, Noriega ( sort of...much less than others),Roberto D’Aubuisson, Samoza, Jonas Savimbi, Pinochet (who replaced Allende), Banzer, Suharto, and Castelo Branco. 2) You may not know, but it was. If you want a clearer example of CIA attitudes towards torture, research Dan Mitrione, especially his actions in Uruguay.
