A HISTORY OF INSTITUTIONAL VIOLENCE AT THE U.S. BORDER When it comes to the U.S. government, no one should confuse agency size for the likelihood of accountability. For example, U.S. Border Patrol is the Department of Homeland Security’s largest federal law enforcement agency, yet has operated with little oversight and almost complete impunity.Nearly a century old, Border Patrol was created under the Department of Labor in 1924 to 30TH ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE GATHERING AT FORT BENNING30TH AG FORT BENNING GASCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS FORT BENNING GEORGIAFORT BENNING NEWSFORT BENNING FACEBOOK30TH AG FT BENNING GAFORT BENNING DIRECTORY Friday, November 15th (2420 Fort.

------------------------- HELP SOA WATCH FUNDRAISE THIS #GIVINGTUESDAY! SOA/WHINSEC GRADUATE COUP IN BOLIVIA: US-BACKED REGIME MASSACRESDEMONSTRATORS
On November 10, 2019, TWO-TIME WHINSEC GRADUATE AND COMMANDER OF THE BOLIVIAN ARMED FORCES, GENERAL WILLIAMS KALIMAN ‘SUGGESTED’ THAT BOLIVIAN PRESIDENT EVO MORALES RESIGN. General Kaliman’s statement came after post-election protests bolstered by a false narrative of election fraud promoted by the US-dominated Organization of AmericanStates (OAS),
a police mutiny, and a VICIOUS CAMPAIGN OF VIOLENCE BY THE FAR RIGHT-WING AGAINST MEMBERS OF PRESIDENT MORALES’ POLITICAL PARTY, THE MOVEMENT FOR SOCIALISM (MAS). This included violent public attacks on MAS officials, burning their homes, and kidnapping family members. As a result, MORALES AND ALL THREE ELECTED OFFICIALS CONSTITUTIONALLY IN LINE TO REPLACE HIM — VICE-PRESIDENT, HEAD OF THE SENATE, HEAD OF THE CHAMBER OF DEPUTIES — ALL RESIGNED, CITING A COUP D’ETAT. The Mexican government sent an airplane to rescue Morales and granted him and other MAS leaders political asylum, which Morales credits with saving his life. THE UNITED STATES PROMPTLY RECOGNIZED JEANINE ÁÑEZ, A RIGHT-WING SENATOR, AS PRESIDENT OF BOLIVIA WHEN SHE DECLARED HERSELF AS SUCH IN A LEGISLATIVE SESSION WITHOUT A QUOROM WHERE ONLY MINORITY OPPOSITION LEGISLATORS WERE PRESENT. In fact, the Bolivian Legislative Assembly, in which MAS holds a majority, had not even accepted Morales’ resignation, as is required for it to become official. The US attempt to normalize the coup government has been paralleled in the corporate media, which has whitewashed events in Bolivia and created a narrative that legitimates Áñez as president.
As Indigenous people and others throughout Bolivia protest the coup, THE US-BACKED DE FACTO REGIME HAS BEEN BRUTALLY MASSACRING THEM,
WITH APPROXIMATELY 30 PEOPLE KILLED SINCE THE COUP. ÁÑEZ ISSUED A DECREE GRANTING IMPUNITY FROM CRIMINAL PROSECUTION TO MILITARY AND POLICE FORCES WHO KILL AND SHOOT PROTESTERS, GIVING THE MILITARY AND POLICE LICENCE TO KILL. ON NOVEMBER 15, 2019, A JOINT MILITARY-POLICE OPERATION OPENED FIRE ON INDIGENOUS DEMONSTRATORS INSACABA

KILLING AT LEAST 9 PEOPLE AND SERIOUSLY INJURING MANY, MANY MORE. ON NOVEMBER 19, 2019, THE REGIME AGAIN MASSACRED DEMONSTRATORS, KILLING AT LEAST 8 PEOPLE IN SENKATA.

PRESS RELEASE: AS SOA/WHINSEC GRADUATES CONTINUE THEIR LEGACY OF DESTABILIZING LATIN AMERICA, HUMAN RIGHTS ACTIVISTS RETURN TO FORT BENNING WHERE STATE AGENTS ARE TRAINED COLUMBUS, GEORGIA – This year, hundreds will gather at the gates of SOA/WHINSEC, Fort Benning, Columbus from November 15-17, as Latin America again experiences violent repression by US-trained and funded state forces. WHINSEC’s new Commandant, Colonel John Suggs, recently said “change occurred” when the SOA became WHINSEC in 2001; however, SOA Watch movement’s response is “different name, same shame.” In Bolivia, the US is implicated in a coup that led to the November 10, 2019 resignation of President Evo Morales – Morales’ resignation came after the country’s top soldier, General Williams Kaliman Romero, who trained at WHINSEC in 2003, appeared on television with other high-ranking military officials and “suggested” that Morales resign. At least 7 SOA/WHINSEC graduates are implicated in orchestrating the coup against President Morales. SOA/WHINSEC graduates are infamous for using their civilian-targeted warfare tactics to facilitate coups, torture, forced disappearances, and massacres. Over the last weeks in Chile, massive state repression of civilian protests has resulted in at least 20 deaths, thousands of people are hospitalized and forcibly detained — Chile sends the second highest number of foreign state to be trained at WHINSEC.

– 2019 COMMEMORATIVE GATHERING BY CHRIS, KATHLEEN, AND LIZ ------------------------- PROTESTS THROUGHOUT THE HEMISPHERE AGAINST US-BACKED NEOLIBERAL MODEL In recent weeks, massive demonstrations have been occurring in Chile against the US-exported neoliberal economic model.The imposition of the neoliberal model in Chile occurred under the Pinochet dictatorship and was designed by the ‘Chicago Boys’, economists trained under Milton Friedman at the University of Chicago. Chile has long been uplifted as a model for the success of neoliberalism, which includes privatization of public services and goods, deregulation, and cuts to public spending in areas such as health and education.

------------------------- REPORT: VIOLENCE, CORRUPTION & IMPUNITY IN THE HONDURAN ENERGYINDUSTRY
On August 30, 2019, the Due Process of Law Foundation, Guatemala Human Rights Commission, International Platform Against Impunity, Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights and School of the Americas Watch released a report which profiles Roberto David Castillo and related companies. Castillo is a former Honduran military intelligence official, former government official, and businessman charged with the murder of internationally recognized Indigenous and social movement leader Berta Cáceres. The report brings together information that implicates Castillo in a pattern of human rights violations and corruption to benefit companies with which he was associated. Evidence suggests that the murder of Berta Cáceres was part of a pattern of violence, corruption, intimidation, malicious prosecution and impunity orchestrated by Castillo and others at DESA, who appear to have functioned as a criminal structure. Evidence admitted in the first trial for the murder of Berta Cáceres suggests that Castillo and his associates and employees enlisted the support of key agencies of the Honduran government, using improper influence in the Ministry of Security, police, military and the Honduran judiciary, seemingly to advance efforts to intimidate, persecute, and neutralize Berta Cáceres and COPINH’s opposition to the Agua Zarca project. The report also sheds light on the role of international actors, including development banks and investors. Read the report here. SOA GRADUATES SENTENCED BY ITALIAN COURT FOR ROLE IN OPERATION CONDOR In July 2019, an Italian appeals court sentenced 24 former officials from Bolivia, Chile, Peru, and Uruguay to life in prison for their roles in Operation Condor — a brutal and extremely deadly US-backed operation in the 1970s and 1980s that targeted leftists, activists, social movement leaders, and others who spoke out. Operation Condor kidnapped, tortured, disappeared and/or murdered tens of thousands of people across South America. 5 of the 24 former officials from South American dictatorships sentenced by the Italian court were trained at the U.S. Army School of the Americas. Declassified documents posted by the National Security Archive illustrate why it is vitally important to hold the United States responsible for its support of Operation Condor. A six page cable from the US Embassy in Argentina to the State Department in 1980 reported that the Argentine military would not stop using disappearance as a preferred tactic and attempted to explain why. A CIA intelligence report describes how the dynamiting of the bodies of 30 people executed in Argentina in 1976, scattering their remains widely, was meant to intimidate other so-called militants into being quiet just months after the military coup. Another CIA report describes how Operation Condor targeted officials with Amnesty International and other human rights groups and planned overseas missions in Europe to ‘liquidate’ ‘targets’. There will not be true justice until the US government is also held to account for its role in financing, training, and supporting Operation Condor’s atrocities throughout the Southern Cone.

US POLICIES AT THE ROOT OF MASSIVE DEMONSTRATIONS IN HONDURAS Since late April, teachers, doctors, and medical workers in Honduras have been demonstrating against the privatization of education and medical services. The demonstrations in defense of public education and health services have grown into massive and ongoing national mobilizations demanding the resignation of Honduran President JuanOrlando Hernandez.
US-backed economic policies – such as privatization policies promoted by the International Monetary Fund (IMF) – are at the heart of the current crisis in Honduras. FURTHERMORE, IT IS US POLITICAL, ECONOMIC, AND MILITARY BACKING OF THE HERNANDEZ REGIME THAT ENABLES HIM TO MAINTAIN HIS GRIP ON POWER. Honduran social movement leader Carlos H Reyes recently said, _”The United States government is too brazen in the case of Honduras, throwing a lifeline to a dying regime. If it were not for them, the regime would have already fallen.”_ With massive demonstrations ongoing against the regime, the US Embassy in Honduras recently announced the arrival of nearly 300 US Marines and others with the US Southern Command’s rapid response force to Honduras and surrounding countries. THE US MARINES WILL CONDUCT ‘TRAINING AND SECURITY COOPERATION’ WITH THE HONDURAN SECURITY FORCES, WHICH ROUTINELY FIRE LIVE BULLETS AT TEACHERS AND OTHER CIVILIANS DURING DEMONSTRATIONS.READ MORE HERE.
SOA WATCH CONDEMNS THE SHAMEFUL PROPOSAL TO LOCK UP IMMIGRANT CHILDRENAT FT. BENNING
The Trump administration is considering locking up immigrant children at Ft Benning,
one of the very locations responsible for the conditions that cause them to flee their home countries in the first place. Representatives from the Departments of Defense and Health & Human Services visited Ft. Benning on Wednesday, June 5, 2019 to consider the site as part of a disturbing plan to detain up to 5,000 unaccompanied immigrant children on US military bases. Ft. Benning’s School of the Americas (SOA) trained some of the worst human rights abusers from Guatemala, El Salvador, and Honduras, including military officials who went on to carry out brutal massacres, murders, disappearances and coups. The training of Latin American militaries at Ft. Benning continues today. In 2018, Ft. Benning’s SOA-WHINSEC trained 130 members of the Honduran security forces, which have beenfiring live bullets
at civilians during recent demonstrations against the US-backedregime.
US policies and US military training create the conditions that lead refugees to flee for their lives. Now children fleeing Central America could be cruelly locked up at the same military base where the US has trained those who have terrorized the homelands. This isshameful.
TAKE ACTION: ASK YOUR REPRESENTATIVE TO CO-SPONSOR THE BERTA CACERES HUMAN RIGHTS IN HONDURAS ACT Representative Hank Johnson and 43 representatives have reintroduced the Berta Cáceres Human Rights in Honduras Act, H.R. 1945, in the current legislative session of the House of Representatives. The bill would suspend US military and security aid to Honduras until important human rights conditions are met, including justice for the murder of Berta Cáceres, the killings of over 100 small farmers in the Aguan Valley, the murders of demonstrators who were killed by security forces while opposing election fraud last year, and more.READ MORE…
