DoD offers 'Training', identifies candidates who will 'tow the Line', recruits them and makes sure they rise through the ranks. Somehow, these candidates become Dictatorial Assh0les and DoD ends up having to use the Military to put them down. When is the last time a CIA backed populist took power anywhere? That creature doesn't exist.It never will exist.
If these Countries want to stay independent, they need to tell the US to go pound sand. I've seen it time and again, where the DoD promotes some Progressive agenda to get the funding, which then turns out to not to have been their true agenda at all. Anyone who believes any proposal by CIA to aid a Country has anything but a black underbelly is seriously delusional or on their payroll.
