Made in Israel
As Gabriel Schivone reports,
Israel’s role in Guatemala’s colossal massacres of Mayan Indians in the
1980s was as an intermediary for the United States. Indigenous refugees
from atrocities in Central America — that continue to this day — now
encounter Israeli-made surveillance towers on the US-Mexico border,
where US forces occupy the second largest Native American reservation of
Tohono O’odham. Homeland Security militarization of Arizona and
Chiapas, initiated under Obama, continues under Trump.
