Long Term Failures: A Short History of the CIA and Destabilization of Leftist Governments in Latin America
M. Earl Smith, November 20, 2018
M. Earl Smith’s extensive research into and historical expose of the CIA’s activity in South America displays a historical truth which is systematically and strenuously suppressed in the American mass media.
