    People are fleeing #CentralAmerica often directly because of US policies, i.e. backing dictatorships in #Honduras, worsening drug and gang violence. This @washingtonpost story fundamentally ignores that, saying more $ is needed to boost “security”https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2018/10/23/trumps-caravan-panic-is-self-defeating/?utm_term=.ecccb8a07b23 …

        My forthcoming #warondrugs book reports from #Honduras where US policies for decades have caused immense misery; it was rare to meet one person who didn’t want to flee the apocalyptic violence unleashed in that country for years. Drugs, gangs & impunity. Who wouldn’t leave?https://twitter.com/antloewenstein/status/1054604329267671040 …

        And now we’re starting a new Cold War. It’s like the way back machine stopped in 1985.

        Wonder who started all the problems in those countries. I think maybe it was Obama’s administration.
