7. It's a fact that the CIA sponsored guerilla training camps for ....l
the Majahadeen in Afghanistan back in the eighties when they were at war with the soviets. These guerilla camps incorporated Islamic teachings as well.
Same thing with the Chechnya war. Again, Islamic rebels were trained by the CIA in camps for war against the Soviets.
All thru the years countless Latin American dictators were toppled or propped up depending on the whims of the U.S. Government.
That included deposing the PM of Iran back in the fifties with the help of the British, because the PM decided to nationalize the oil industry there.
The international heroin trade was and probably still is run in large part by the CIA operations.
Let's not forget about those secret prisons and torture rooms they're got located all over the world.
And what about their good pal Pakistan. They have definitely sponsored terrorists, yet the ISI is supported strongly by the CIA and they go back a long way with their covert operations.
I agree, it goes both ways
