Carter certainly has some culpability here, but in fairness his administration did withdraw a lot of support for these regimes. This interview offers some interesting insights about that and how others stepped in to fill the void https://m.soundcloud.com/historiaspod/historias-123-molly-avery-on-pinochet-and-el-salvador

In general the distinction you make about different Christianities at work still stands though and is not widely known, so I enjoyed the post. I am teaching about Latin American revolutionaries right now so these topics are very much on my mind lately!

I like this piece because the error of American presidents is still ongoing. Biden is funding a war in Ukraine that could have been solved at a table. Biden has funded far too many wars in the past. In my opinion, the war is not about morals it is laundering money at the taxpayers expense. My fellow Americans deserve to have our taxes spent here at home. PMEASE continue to write because this subject has a great value. And I am sure you have many other valuable thoughts to be written
