Correa to Bush: send us your troops or 'shut up'
Ecuadoran President Rafael Correa told US President George W. Bush on Friday to either send US troops to the border with Colombia or 'shut up,' in response to criticism that Ecuador harbors Colombian rebels. 'Mr Bush, bring over your soldiers, let your soldiers be the ones who get killed at the southern border with Colombia,' Correa said two weeks after Bogota raided a Colombian rebel camp inside Ecuador killing a top rebel leader. 'Lets see if American citizens will accept such a tremendous barbarity. Otherwise, shut up and try to understand what's happening in Latin America,' the Ecuadoran leader added.

Good show, Rafael. Assuming you understand that people have been killed for saying less about the leadership of these U.S. gangsters (but of course you do). However this begs the question then: why would you want these murderous yanqui nazis anywhere near your country?
ReplyDeleteForget that "international community" imperialist fraud shite: join ALBA instead and get their militaries to beef up your own -- and your border. Time to integrate América Latina, right? And why not start with defence (and I mean real defence -- not in the orwellian sense as practiced by the imperialists) in the best internationalist fashion?
