"The linkages between
the United States and the NSSs [National Security States] are
clear and powerful ... It is, once again, a testimonial to the
power and patriotism of the Free Press that, not only is the terrorism
of the NSSs underrated, but the role of the United States as the
sponsor - the Godfather - of this real terror network is hidden
from view ... the United States is portrayed as an innocent bystander,
occasionally making mistakes in its anxiety to protect the citizens
of Latin America from the evils of Communism, but regretful of
any excesses that may sometimes occur there. This amazing pretense
is carried through despite the historical record of an openly
announced role of Godfather dating back at least to 1823 (the
Monroe Doctrine), the more or less steady interventionism since
then, the remarkable degree of homogeneity within the NSSs, and
the recent record of our role in sponsoring and managing the terror
network."
