Guatemala: The CIA's Back Yard

This scenario has been enacted throughout South and Central America. The Dulles brothers were central to the overthrow of the Albenz government in Guatemala in the interests of the United Fruit Company and US capitalism.

The same year the US orchestrated the coup that overthrew the democratically elected government of Mohammad Mossadegh in Iran. The notorious Shah, a friend of the CIA, British and US imperialism was installed and a reign of terror followed when all opposition was banned and individuals, tortured, murdered or just disappeared. It is these policies that are at the root of the migrations north as workers and people escape poverty US imposed economic policies backed by US armed forces.

This is an account of the Dulles brothers role in defending US capitalism's interests in the area and throughout the world.
