Right-wing US Presidents were firm supporters of these fascist war criminals.

By keeping the US public dumb as carrots about US relations with other governments with the direct help from the corporate media it has been absolutely easy to operate with no resistance whatsoever in lending assistance, if not leadership to actual evil actions against masses of people imaginable. Some of the things the Argentinian government did during that time are not even within natural range of decent human beings, leaning right into scenes from hell.
