Apr 09th, 2012 - 04:26 am - Link - Report abuse 0always has treated Latin American as its backyard when it came to foreign policy designs. I guess old habits die hard...
YEP! its a shitty old weed ridden back yard too!
Apr 09th, 2012 - 04:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0brazil has failed in keeping its crazy neighbour Argentina in check, until Brazil can actually make mercorsur work i doubt USA will care much.
Apr 09th, 2012 - 04:36 am - Link - Report abuse 0Maybe form a nice new mercorsur with chile, paraguay, uruguay, peru, and brazil! that might work
Brasil is a safe bet, however they are still WAYYYY too SUDACA to be taken seriously by the US. Clean up some more of that crime and get all of those people out of the “favela” shantytown slums and then maybe we can talk. Also stay FAR away from Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, the sicko president of Argentina!!

and then some posters wonder how a perfectly good thread goes to hell!
Apr 09th, 2012 - 05:29 am - Link - Report abuse 0Just check poster #2 contribution: an insult “a shitty old weed ridden back yard too”
Poster #3 brings in 'crazy neighbour Argentina' although the articles is not remotely about Argentina
Poster #4 brings in Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner 'the sicko president of Argentina'
I mean, what gives? No wonder this place has become a place for diatribes and insults!
This place could actually be quite different if we all pitched in.
*sigh*

Apr 09th, 2012 - 05:53 am - Link - Report abuse 0Duh, Obongo is an empty jack and the US has nothing to offer.
Obongo: Please dilma, buy our F-18 fighter jets, please.
Dilma: They are cheap but nay. You treat me like France, I'll go French. Now go eat cake, chump.

Who believes Brazil has forgotten the US airbase improvements in Columbia that make all of South America a military “theater?” Or that distant US wars funded on credit have opened the back door to the Caribbean for both China and Brazil? The barrios and favalas south of the Rio Grande all look at central North America and see a losing chess player that cannot even concentrate on the education, health and homelessness of its own imprisoned population.
Apr 09th, 2012 - 11:05 am - Link - Report abuse 0Just call me old fashioned but perhaps the background of Rousseff is just too bloody for Obarmy in an election year?
Apr 09th, 2012 - 11:42 am - Link - Report abuse 0Having a President who is an ex-terrorist and whose cell was responsible for murdering a US Officer in front of his wife and child is just too much to hide from the American masses.
What would you do if you were Obarmy?
Resisting a torturing military dictatorship imposed by the US is terrorism?
Apr 09th, 2012 - 01:38 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Agree with Hebler #5,
Apr 09th, 2012 - 02:57 pm - Link - Report abuse 0keeping to the thread would be really good.
Is Brazil really upset that it is not being invited with full honors to equally important DC social events as other countries? Sounds like an idea from a sub grade B movie plot to me.
Apr 09th, 2012 - 03:13 pm - Link - Report abuse 0#12,
Apr 09th, 2012 - 06:17 pm - Link - Report abuse 0yes, Brasil is upset in public, but #9 applies.
So I am wrong to believe the government of Brasil was overthrown by a US puppet dictatorship that tortured the current president when she was a college student?

Apr 10th, 2012 - 12:17 am - Link - Report abuse 0No, you're not old fashioned. You're a moron that claims to live in South America, but doesn't know anything about that area and who doesn't understand that Obarmy (Obummer, Obongo or Barry) doesn't care about that Bulgarian bear's background. That Kenyan Irish clown of the banks denied her a “state visit” because he doesn't know how to treat Brazil and because Brazil doesn't follow his broken foreign policy. Only his lapdog and your boyfriend Cameron does that.
“So I am wrong to believe the government of Brasil was overthrown by a US puppet dictatorship that tortured the current president when she was a college student?”
No, you're not wrong. But hey, once you're for liberty, fight for it but are on the side of the so called communists who were the only ones who physically fought the so called right wing, you're a terrorist. Repeat it over and over and imbeciles who are stuck in the left vs right paradigm and can't think for themself will believe it without doing their own research.
Fido, stop being rude to people.
Apr 10th, 2012 - 08:33 am - Link - Report abuse 0You and they have good points which might differ a bit/a lot, but we all learn from counter-arguments well made - like the involvement of the US/CIA? in the establishment of Brasil's military era.
Have you evidence that this was an American (US) conspiracy/putsch
?
Fido, thank you for your direct and concise manner of speech. Keep at it, the US is doomed to false evolution via believing it's own propaganda without people who tell it like it is.
Apr 10th, 2012 - 11:14 am - Link - Report abuse 0Geoff, Establishing direct and exact evidence to expose criminals and torturers who sneak in the night with faces masked is difficult to impossible. I, for example, came to a broader understanding by reading Brazilian news in Portuguese to find the truth of the ongoing and torturous US backed coup in Honduras. This was a struggle because I was not familiar with the language, still, I persevered and still am, which has led me to the current US supported coup to end democracy in the Maldives. The story is very repetitive, it is a tad boring watching pointless foreign adventures as the US implodes.

Apr 10th, 2012 - 06:22 pm - Link - Report abuse 0There is plenty of stuff on the web about other SA countries - what about Brasil?
If you believe it to be true you must have got some info from somewhere - otherwise your post is just trolling hot air.
A simple Wiki quote from eg http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_dictatorship_(Brazil)
'United States involvement'
is a starting point, though even Wiki at June 2010 says it is unsure about its veracity.
WikiLeaks ??
GeoffWard, Nope, no direct evidence. Just the notation that almost every other anti democracy coup in the Americas and most of the rest of the world is marked with US fingerprints. You see the problem? Once a nation is branded as a known anti-democracy force it is blamed for everything that smacks of totalitarianism, everywhere, and all the time.
Apr 10th, 2012 - 10:20 pm - Link - Report abuse 0Fellow Brazilians, with all due respect we Indians had a reason for nuclear test. We have active nuclear powered enemies on all sides. As for China, even the nuclear deterrent doesn't seem enough.
