    Looks very interesting but long so I’ll have to come back to it later tonight. I will say I hate the framing of the armed groups as “gangs” it’s just so racially coded. Groups of armed men fighting over control of the government are more appropriately referred to as factions in my view.

    I am also sure the CIA is balls deep in this, would love to know where those weapons are coming from. There’s a lot more to the story than what we are being told and I am sure this video is a good resource on it, hence your posting it. Looking forward to it and will comment again after viewing.
