Clark Panama Article

[ourwinter]

Dear DUers,

Days, I hesitate to state, weeks ago I read a post that reffered to Clark's years at Panama and said some rather unsavory things (no I am not a Republican troll) I am simply trying to gather up some more information. I happen to be a supporter.

Does anyone know where this article is, or who posted it? It said something to the effect of "Clark's days in Panama he ruled with an iron fist" or something...

Please help.

Yours,
ourwinter

1. This is probably it. I thought it was very informative

I am no fan of Clinton's Latin America operations where fascism still thrives with US support.

Clark ran the Southern command and thus ran the mercenary operations contracts with private military contracts down there.

To me that makes him a bastard who is unfit to be president and a likely trojan horse for the BFEE.

Many here do not like this author. But many here think he is dmn good. I am one of the latter.

Excerpt:

A long time ago, the French, tired of war, turned to a short general named Napoleon to lead them to peace and prosperity. Instead, Napoleon seized imperial power and ensured the French would have more war. After four years of Bush, the neo-con Fifth Column in the Democratic Party is trying to convince us that Clark is the "anti-war" candidate. Tell that to the people of Serbia, Kosovo, and Montenegro. Tell that to the coca farmer in Bolivia or Colombia who is trying to feed his family. Let's not fall for the deception and tricks of the neo-cons again. If you are tired of Bush, Cheney, and the neo-cons and their phony wars, Clark is certainly not the answer. He has been, and remains part of, the great deception of the American people.

2. That would be "year" not years

He was only in Panama for part of 1996 and part of 97
