to fully understand how the usa intervene in latam, you must read "nuestra guerra andina", by germán castro caycedo, in which he explains how american army was responsible for colombia's narcos after the failure in vietnam war. all they need is a bunch of mercenaries: https://z-library.rs/book/11376332/c3d10b/nuestra-guerra-ajena-spanish-edition.html

unfortunately, only available in spanish, so I'll leave two other great books about cia and latam. "inside the company", by the precursor of nostr:npub1sn0wdenkukak0d9dfczzeacvhkrgz92ak56egt7vdgzn8pv2wfqqhrjdv9, philip agee: https://z-library.rs/book/2563677/b944a2/inside-the-company-cia-diary.html

and "turning the tide", by chomsky: https://z-library.rs/book/2611843/572582/turning-the-tide-us-intervention-in-central-america-and-the-struggle-for-peace.html
