110. And it is this arrogant attitude that forced the South American Nations to form their own version

Wed Jul 3, 2013, 01:37 AM

Jul 2013

NATO to protect all of their nations from the oppressive support for Dictators they endured from the West over the past several decades. They understood that one nation exercising their sovereign rights would not be able to defend themselves from returning to those dark days of the School of the Americas and have taken the precaution of uniting as a continent to offset exactly this kind of hubris and disrespect for their sovereignty.

I suppose if you haven't been following events in S. America you still think the US has some clout in that region of the world. But the insult to one of their allies is now likely to result in a unified effort to oppose the chilling return to the past that this is a reminder of.

We are NOT the king of the world. Evo Morales is a highly respected leader of a sovereign nation and this insult is unacceptable, and has proven that Snowden has every reason to seek asylum and he just may get it, not from just one country in S.A. but from the Alliance itself.
