Kucinich Protests Army Training School
Associated Press November 19, 2007
COLUMBUS, Ga. - Democratic presidential hopeful Dennis Kucinich said Nov. 18 the thinking thatwent into producing an Army school blamed for human rights abuses in Latin America was the samethat led the U.S. to war in Iraq and could cause it to raid Iran.
Kucinich was speaking at the 18th annual protest of the school at Fort Benning that trainsLatin American soldiers, police and government officials. One of his first acts as president if elected would be to close the school, he said. "The type of thinking that produced this school is the same type of thinking that produced thewar in Iraq and is producing a war against Iran," Kucinich said. The Ohio congressman andformer Cleveland mayor was addressing a crowd estimated by local police to number roughly10,000. The Army's School of the Americas moved to Fort Benning from Panama in 1984 and was replaced in2001 by the Western Hemisphere Institute for Security Cooperation, under the DefenseDepartment. The protests outside the gate to the military installation are timed to commemorate six Jesuitpriests who were killed along with their housekeeper and her daughter in El Salvador on Nov.19, 1989. Some of those who killed them had attended the School of the Americas.
This guy is the moonbattiest of moonbats
It was also this school that introduced human rights classes to Latin American military training you durn fool idgit. Maybe I am missing something here but I believe the oh enlightened on Hugo Chavez military has gotten a little more thuggish since U.S. influence has been taken away. By the way the Govt of El Salvador while it had its attrocities on both sides that were very sad is a success story in how to combat an insurgency.
