Targeting Foreign Leaders: Longstanding US Policy

Stephen Lendman

No one's safe from America's long arm. From inception, CIA operatives developed skills to kill.

Fidel Castro survived hundreds of assassination attempts. He knows best how Washington operates.

Other leaders weren't as lucky. In April 1994, CIA surface-to-air missiles killed Rwandan President Juvenal Habyarimana and Burundi President Cyprien Ntaryamira.

Downing their plane put Paul Kagame in power. He became Washington's man in Rwanda. Ethnic slaughter continued what began earlier. It's longstanding US policy. It advances America's imperium.

Mobutu replaced Lumumba in Congo. Pinochet followed Allende in Chile. Saddam's gone. So is Gaddafi. William Blum documented 50 CIA foreign leader assassination attempts. Half or more times were successful. Chavez perhaps was the latest.

He succumbed to cancer. For decades, America experimented with cancer-causing substances. Expert technologies exist.
