Down Memory lane with US destabilization in Jamaica 1976-1980

I will never forget the Eventide fire - never.

1. The US's terroristic Monroe Doctrine at work.

The US hegemony of the Latin Americas and Caribbean continues to this day.

Mostly supported by Americans who feel it's our way or the highway to sanctions or overthrow of their govt's by US backed insurrectionists.

Thanks for the great post.

2. I lived through those times

I don’t plan to forget. We’re still reaping the consequences with all these illegal guns and gangs.

3. Malaise, deep thanks for sharing this information here. As you must know, the lies seem to have worked to perfection.

I have never heard a peep about any of this, which appears to me, so many years later, as absolute breaking news!

Eight minutes to completely incinerate a nursing home and 145 elderly women residents. Beyond shocking. Astoundingly vicious. Even as those poor, unsuspecting souls lost their lives and spent their last moments in total chaos and terror and pain, a horrendous blow was made with the lie being created for the public that this conflagration could be laid at the feet of Manley's government, scoring a wild psychological advantage against Manley's worthiness, which was their intention.

Nothing better than diabolical. What kind of monsters savagely terrorize and destroy totally helpless people, anyway? I can certainly understand how and why you could never forget what happened with this total tragedy. . .

I had no idea they wanted Manley out that much. Our State Department stenographer/corporate journalists pulled the wool completely over everyone's eyes regarding Washington's attitude toward him, leaving them all looking as innocent as choirboys.

To be sure, the only story able to surface in Wikipedia simply repeats the bogus cover story. I have no wish to cite any of it, but leave this pathetic link for evidence of how well the propaganda worked:

4. I will never forget that day

Indeed I will never forget the entire period

5. It looks as if there was a mountain of covert activity which took place which will have to be totally exposed

with the passage of time, just as will happen in Chile, Argentina, Peru, Paraguay, Uruguay, Brazil, Cuba, etc., etc.

It takes almost no time at all for these crimes to be committed in secret, under the cover of denial, and decades the truth to finally surface, one way or another. As we have seen, journalists with consciences are often sacrificed without batting an eye to keep the information buried, along the way, making real journalism a high-risk profession when the practitioners are honest.

6. The sad truth is that the misinformation has also

been perfected in the US
