Description

In 1947, one of the most nefarious rules of the United States, Harry S.
Truman, author of the atomic genocide at Hiroshima and Nagasaki,
decreed the creation of the Central Intelligence Agency -CIA- , as the
main instrument of espionage and political interventionism on a global
scale, to consolidate the role of the United States as a great world power
derived from World War Two and rival the other super power derived
from the same historical circumstance: the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics
(USSR), better known as the Soviet Union.
The CIA immediately got to work. Its two most notable actions during
its first years where the overthrow in 1953 of the prime minister of Iran,
Mohamed Mossadeg, who had nationalized multinational oil companies,
and in 1954 the invasion of Guatemala by means of a mercenary army to
overthrow the nationalist government of Colonel Jacobo Arbenz, who
had nationalized estates formerly belonging to the all powerful United
Fruit. Since then, the CIA shed its bloody power over the whole world,
frequently at the edge or over the formal political power of the United
States, in collusion with the military (the Pentagon) under the diplomatic
cover of the US embassies. That is what happened in the Republic of
Ecuador, which calls upon a key year: 1960, and an extraordinary name:
Philip Agee.
The outstanding thing about that year is the triumph of the Cuban
Revolution through the armed insurgence lead by Fidel Castro, immediately
followed by a proliferation of guerrillas in Central and South Amer10
ica, and a strong presence of the Soviet Union which supported Cuba
due to their own geopolitical motives which opposed those of the North
Americans. It was a new and huge chapter of the Cold War.
Washington decided to act ruthlessly, raising the flag of anti-communism
and anti-Sovietism, so since 1960 and throughout almost twenty
years the continent saw a scattering of coups that included Brazil, Argentina,
Uruguay, Chile, El Salvador, Guatemala, Dominican Republic,
etc. The script used was always the same: break relations with Cuba, persecution
of “communism”, interpreted as patriotic military sectors and
certain sectors of the Catholic Church. Extrajudicial executions, mass
persecution, torture, disappearances and political exile came to be the
daily bread.
By the way, the emblematic figure with which the CIA kicked off this
period was Philip Agee, brilliant and young operations officer that carried
out a broad plan in Ecuador, Uruguay and Mexico during those
years of terror, from 1960 to 1968.
Unfortunately, the fragility of the collective memory and the speed
of the current technological changes allow for this recent history to be
ignored and, in the same way, the presence of the CIA to be underestimated.
Its colossal development runs alongside globalization, the
crisis of capitalism, the oil wars (Libya, Iraq, for example), the desire for
one-sided domination by the United States, acolyte of old Europe and
oligarchies everywhere.
