Answer 1

I was not familiar with this massacre so I had to do a little research. At first glance, it would appear that the United States had nothing to do with the massacres that took place in the Rio ***** community of Guatemala in 1980 to1982. However, on closer examination, I discovered that the Chihoxy Hydroelectric Dam project which was to be built under the patronage of the World Bank and the Interamerican Development fund, both financial agencies, which are essentially controlled and run by the corporate and banking interests of the US was the catalyst that set off a chain of events leading to the massacre by Guatemalan security forces of over 440 people over a two year period. These people fighting for the right to remain on their lands were declared guerrillas when they refused to cooperate with the moneyed interests. keen on making big profits without regards to the welfare of the people that would be displaced from their ancestral homes, and were either disappeared or summarily executed. Members of the Guatemalan army and security forces had been trained in anti terror, anti guerrilla tactics by American personnel at the infamous School of the Americas (SOAS) notorious for turning out death squads and creative torture techniques. So even though the US was not directly culpable of shooting these people down, the evidence of our complicity in their deaths is overwhelming.
