Don't let anyone fool you this is the REAL 9/11, and it was ALL instigated by the US.

Hopefully more details come to the surface about what they did on Latin America and other parts of the world.

Viva Chile mierda!!! 🇨🇱

Both 9/11s were pretty freaking real, but you’re right on the US orchestrating the 1973 one.

U.S. declassifies historic Nixon intelligence reports on 1973 Chile coup

The U.S. government has declassified intelligence reports on the 1973 Chile coup, which show President Richard Nixon's view and possible support of a violent overthrow of democracy in Chile[1][2][3][4]. The documents were released 50 years after the military coup that brought down Salvador Allende and installed the Pinochet dictatorship[5]. The newly declassified documents reveal that Nixon was told in an intelligence briefing three days before the coup that it was brewing[4]. The Chilean government has called for an investigation into the Nixon administration's involvement with the coup[3]. The reports sent to Nixon in the hours before the coup d'état in Chile concluded that the only solution was a political one[6].

The same article also says:

"Before the coup, then-President Nixon had given direct orders to CIA Director Richard Helms to "save Chile" by instigating a military coup to oust Allende, the National Security Archive showed."

Someone didin't do their job by writting both "possible support" and "direct orders" in the same page.

Long, toasty, and full of rope-spear uppercuts.
