I was deployed to Honduras in the early 80s. I was on the Honduras El Salvadorian border. The Honduras people treated me with respect. They fed me and put us up at one of their military bases. This is a very good video explaining exactly how we interfere with other countries. It's a shame that the American people really don't know what is going on. We spend more time worrying about which party we are on then what is really right and wrong. I have been trying to defend these people but it seems like everytime I put something up it is pulled down or blocked. We will all be judged someday.

As I looked further and further into the problems that are ailing this world that we are living in the one common denominator that always showed up as the root cause of all of the problems is the USA! This one country with 4% of the world's population has instigated 82% of all wars in the world since WW2! Only 14 years out of its 246 years of history that the USA isn't at war with at least one other nation! Let that sink in! But as always all we hear from the US propaganda machine are China, Russia, Iran, Iraq, North Korea! What the American mainstream media won't tell you is that the USA is the one that is starting problems with all of them!

My Father came to this country around the 1970 fleeing the civil war and death squads in El Salvador 🇸🇻. He wanted a better life life for my Mother and my sister who was baby when he left. He walked through the Mexican desert so he could skip the Rio Grand river crossing because he didn’t know how to swim. He made made his way to California not knowing a lick of English. Stayed for about 2 weeks taking odd jobs to make it to northern VA where we had family already living in the US. He worked hard for 3 years and was able to make enough money to bring my mother and sister over the legal way to Va. Years later I would born in Washington DC as first generation US citizen. Growing up I didn’t realize my parents or my sister weren’t citizens. Until they were studying to take their citizenship tests. I believe I was around the 2nd grade at the time and I remember helping them study facts that I already learned in school. Good news my family passed the citizenship process and we love living in this country. Both my sister and I went to college and my parents dream of bringing a better life for their family came true!

I was born in Mexico City (Nezahualcóyotl 👀 it up) is & has been 1 of the most dangerous places in Mexico. I been 2 El Salvador 🇸🇻 once, 1 of my best friends was born there. We are lucky 2 B in USA 🇺🇸now, but we don’t forget where we come from. History tends 2 repeat itself especially when people aren’t aware of it, so World history one of my majors. My news I get them from anywhere that reporters have shown knowledge on the topics they talk about & I especially love when they are actually on the ground, which in most places is very dangerous. Look up news about the Cartel, reporters from the country where is happening either get killed when reporting on it or don’t report it at all. So your best bet on getting the news is from a source reporting on the issue that is coming from another country. England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 is an example where many reporters have been able 2 report & interview people from the Taliban & the cartel among other dangerous people. When reporters come from other countries their chances of getting 2 report on something are greater than native reporters from that area. For once, all crime is the result of injustices coming from the people in power; so their main goal is for the story to go viral & to be known globally, they don’t care 2 try 2 make their own press understand the circumstances since they assume they know or that they’re at fault also. USA 🇺🇸 has done a lot of damage not just in Latin America but worldwide, & morally we have an obligation 2 try 2 fix our wrongs by helping all these countries & its citizens in trouble. Colonialism is still happening today & its all 4 the sake of what is good 4 USA 🇺🇸 1st & most of all. Most Americans are educated but they’re unaware of the country’s history, due 2 How history is taught. Many ugly chapters have been skipped all together. Even slavery had been avoided for the most part until today, where so many facts have come up recently & proved wrong 2 have been attributed 2 white people instead of the real person just b/c of the color of their skin. Anyways Americans assume that by taking people in (refugees as well as immigrants) 🇺🇸 is only being taken advantage of when in reality is just one of many checks getting cashed in, it is time 4 🇺🇸 to fix all the wrongs that we have done. So many other countries have receipts on 🇺🇸 & sooner or later they’ll b cashing them in too. Mi español lo califico con un 99% tanto lo hablo bien como lo escribo, es rara la vez que no entiendo alguna palabra. Soy la más grande de 5 hijos y llegue a 🇺🇸 cuando tenía 13 años, como la mayor tuve que ponerme las pilas y traducir el Inglés igual que el Español ya que mi mamá no sabía Inglés. Mi papá siempre a sabido pero no tiene la paciencia de enseñar a nadie. Hope U can understand where I’m coming from & why I see things the way I do.

We came in 1981 (my brother and I) as adolescents. My father had already arrived in 1977. He came here right after my brother and I were born because there was an immense increase in persecution of political rivals between leftist Marxist guerillas, the government, and death squads funded by oligarchs; college students, academics, intellectuals, and many other people were caught up in the middle of it. Moving on, all of the folks in this video failed (or refused) to mention that Obama was the one who deported more people back to Central America (esp. El Salvador and Honduras) than any other U.S president. Also, if I recall -- it was Reagan who approved amnesty in 1986, which is how a sizeable part of my extended family (the ones who all immigrated) were given a legal pathway to citizenship. Now, stating these irrefutable facts does not make me a Republican or a Trump supporter. In reality, I hate BOTH parties. But, I resent the Democrats more for pretending to be on our side with their lies, hypocrisy, and subtle racist ways.

When Korea was trying to sign peace deals, America would walk away. Likewise, America interfered with Greece twice, once in the 70s and recently under Obama to prevent a left wing government from forming. In Japan, the CIA linked up with the yakuza and the right wing to ensure conservative policies for forty years. Oh, and Germany? It was a buffer zone for Russia that paid a heavy toll for WWII in defeating Nazis that the West sent their way under Churchill. To get into their interventions, just look at who their friends are: Israel and Saudi Arabia who have far worse human rights abuses than anything they claim at NATO.

That has done more damage to Mexico than anything else. NAFTA has displaced farmers in rural Mexico and while at the same time made it easier for drug traffickers to flood the US with drugs.

Thank you so much for this video, hopefully everybody can wrap their heads around whats really going on down in these countries and not jump to conclusions about people. Also it would be great if the golden circle of the Americas was also explained in another video.

*Thank you for malking this awesome informative video which gives insight on the United State's involvement in a destabilized Central America. This is an important aspect of history that is not being acknowledged in the immigration controversy.*

Thanks for the video. This was well researched and it developed logically. I wanted to recommend a video on the two U.S. invasions of the Dominican Republic. Not many people know about them and about how the DR almost became a US State.

Don't forget about what the USA did to Hawaii. And I believe that they somehow started the volcano eruption over there because they are feeling their hold slipping in Hawaii. Just like when they made that false nuclear attack warning on Hawaii, I believe that they are trying to instill fear back into the native Hawaiians who are on the rise of waking up and reclaiming what was taken from their ancestors by Americans through deception, murders, and hostile takeover. Before it's all over, whites are going to have to migrate back to Europe from all the nation's, countries, continents and islands that their ancestral and founding fathers colonized and viciously attacked, enslaved, cheated, slaughtered, robbed, and took possession of, robbing all people's of color of their land, dignity, humanity, and resources, even of their own ways and thoughts. None of us people's of color is living life the way we were intended to live our lives, we are living the lives that Europeans and western whites have forced upon us. We haven't even begun to see what we ourselves can achieve, accomplish, and the workmanship of our own minds, hands and the freedom to do it all on our own, for our own nations, countries, continents and islands.

Theyre not gonna make it a State status,not even a Protectorate but more like a Colony.

My dad was born in the mid 1970s and was from Salvador.When he was only a child he left the country to mexico in the 1980s and in 1993 he arrived to the U.S. He did had a AKM and could have fought in the Salvador Civil War but luckily his parents(my grand parent) decided he had to leave his home. If he never left then I would never be here. Now a days he have mixed feelings on the U.S after what he witness back in Salvador.

Im subing for this one vid thanks finnally someone who understands

Great video AJ+ and Sana! I’ve been waiting for something like this from you all for some time!! I’m 30 and come from a Nicoya family who seriously needed access to mental healthcare when they arrived. What they experienced was so terrible that they never went back. As for future videos - how about one where you guys look into where African universities excel? For example, the leading expert on Solifugae is in Namibia (although she went to grad school in CO, she is the only person actively working on a uniform labelling system for Solifugae anatomy). There are also a lot of universities working on sustainable agricultural infrastructure (to make up for that one poorly researched chicken waste biochar video)

Cover the U.S. Involvement in Asia

Thank you for this important information.

My parents fought in the salvadorian war .. we went back and forth from el salvador to guatemala to Uruguay then back the el slavador then back to Guatemala then finally Canada . I'm 34 now and somehow I found happiness through it all. Still lots ahead for me to continue my fight. My parents lost sisters and brothers to this war . Tortured is how they died and bodies never found. I feel for my parents and I hope one day they find peace .

You guys should do an in depth video on each country.

I was telling someone about my coming to America in 88’ as a 5 year old with my mom and why we she did it. We had a civil war and towns of people simply disappeared because of the death squads. Now as a parent myself I understand and I would do it also. America should take some accountability for what they’ve sown

Bravo! Thank you!

Like always.EXCELLENT VIDEOS!

Well done, I'm from El Salvador, I left my country since 1983, this video is little jewel of true in a deep sea of lies ...

@5:30 where is British Honduras or present-day Belize in your maps of Central America?

I had to take notes on this video for school and got 2 pages of great notes.

Excellent reporting!

That map is inaccurate. Belize/British Honduras should be to the east of Guatemala, on the Caribbean coast. Fix it.

Very informative video. I would've liked a link to a reading list for someone who wanted to take a deeper dive into the history of US intervention and interference in Central America. Quite obviously none of this is taught in the American public education system, so we are forced to teach ourselves.

@jamesgunn1214

Still waiting on that reading list, chief. I’m ready to begin.

I couldn't even listen to the first sound clip fully it broke my heart

Very enlightening.

My great grandmother was Honduran and my great grandfather was Salvadoran. Many family members formed part of the civil war in El Salvador. I don't know anything about my Honduran family side, only Salvadoran. But, learning about the hypocrisy of the United States angered me so much. This is what European countries are doing to Africa. It's all about exploiting and getting resources without caring about the indigenous people. My heart hurts so much...

As a former monitor of Latin American and Caribbean Affairs for a think tank in the 80s I have to say that this video is one of the best I've seen on the subject matter. I would only caution that it is still a bit framed within a U.S. debate context, pretty much as this was debated back then. And of course, U.S. involvement is the title and subject of the video. But it was also a weakness of the debate then, as it could be today, to overemphasize American responsibility while depriving the citizens of those countries of agency and responsibility for their own affairs. As a result, we end up still thinking in terms of "what we can do for them" (which could mask paternalism or neo-colonialism) instead of analyzing why haven't they be able to do for themselves, and whether we can or should help them help themselves.

Amazing info...

Please talk about the U.S. intervention in Chile. Thanks for the video! It was very informative and very concise

The US deserves all that comes to them.

I'm luckily a US citizen whose parents immigrated here from Guatemala and hearing all this legit makes me want to cry. America claims "freedom" and "civil rights" but I guess that just doesn't apply to people of color. White supremacist US is one of the biggest threats to humanity

I kinda feel like I learned more from this video about Central & Latin America that I have in my religion class about Latin America in the past 1.5 months in college

I was born in Wisconsin but my dad is from Guatemala and my mom is from Honduras. They came in the 80’s when it was easier to get their papers. Two of my grandparents were alcoholics for reasons I don’t know. Perhaps they were depressed or abused somehow? My dad does not speak about politics nor is he interested in it. I have had to educate myself about Latino history and topics by joining a Latinos Unidos and also Latin dance group in college at UW-Whitewater. I am a proud Latina but I have so much to learn about my parent’s countries and histories. Thank you for videos like these!

My dad was taken from my grandma back in 1975 he didn’t see her again till 1995 he was trained to be a Kaibil for the Guatemalan army but he had enough and left the country my mother left as well because of the civil war many of her brothers died fighting in the civil war our people are refugees of war and we could thank America for that

For example is the El Salvador’s fault for accepting the dollar ??? Where it has made it even poorer country. Take the dollar away and let those countries stay with their own economy. It’s true US help those country, but the militaries take the money for weapon and the people become poorer. If US stops helping many things will change.

Good summary.

Castro wanted to align Cuba with the US. For some reason, the US decided to back a dictator that turned the island in a brothel instead of a Social Democratic regime. Castro, quite pragmatic, went looking for help elsewhere.

If Central America where to united they would be a force to be recognized

Great video and analysis by the way. I think it would be good if you continued with the CONDOR OPERATION, which took place throughout South America. Greetings from Uruguay.

If America spent a fraction of their military budget from other jurisdictions they could help out those on their own doorstep. The hypocrisy is mind boggling!
