Arbenz's government put forth a number of new policies, such as seizing and expropriating unused, unfarmed land that private corporations set aside long ago and giving the land to peasants, that the US intelligence community deemed Communist in nature and, suspecting Soviet influence, fueled a fear of Guatemala becoming what Allen Dulles described as a "Soviet beachhead in the western hemisphere." Dulles' concern reverberated within the CIA and the Eisenhower administration, in the context of the anti-Communist fears of the mccarthyist era. Arbenz instigated sweeping land reform acts that antagonized the US-based multinational company United Fruit Company, which had large stakes in the old order of Guatemala and lobbied various levels of US to take action against Arbenz. Both Dulles and his brother were shareholders of United Fruit Company. The operation, which lasted from late 1953 to 1954, planned to arm and train an ad-hoc "Liberation Army" of about 400 fighters under the command of a then-exiled Guatemalan army officer, Colonel Carlos Castillo Armas, and to use them in conjunction with a complex and largely experimental diplomatic, economic, and propaganda campaign. The operation effectively ended the experimental period of representative democracy in Guatemala known as <b>...</b> | | | | |  | German motorcycles Garrison's Gorillas non-con meet-up at Eisenhower farm, Pa

Then in April 1950, the Ordnance Research and Development Division Sub-Office (Rocket) at Fort Bliss, Texas, arrived at Redstone Arsenal and became the Ordnance Guided Missile Center (with Major James Hamill acting as commander and Wernher von Braun as Technical Director), which first developed a tactical missile, the "Major". By November 1951, the Experimental Missiles Firing Branch, headed by Kurt H. Debus, was established and the Redstone (rocket) program was taking shape. In January 1953, the branch was redesignated the Missile Firing Laboratory and had three sections: Mechanical headed by Albert Zeiler; Guidance, Control & Networks headed by Hans Gruene; and Radio Frequency (RF) & Measurements headed by Karl Sendler. The first Redstone launch took place August 20, 1953, conducted by a team of 30 from the laboratory. In 1954 at a meeting of the Spaceflight committee of the American Rocket Society, Wernher von Braun proposed the idea of placing a satellite into orbit[4] using the Redstone with clusters of small solid-fuel rockets on top. The proposal, Project Orbiter, was rejected in 1955, and the Laboratory became part of the Army Ballistic Missile Agency (ABMA) on February 1, 1956. Nevertheless, the ABMA laboratory successfully launched Explorer 1 on February 1, 1958, and the Army Ordnance Missile Command (AOMC) was formed the next month.

Questo, perchè costui si è talmente calato nella parte che le sue sconcertanti rivelazioni assumono spesso il sapore della verità. Per avere un'idea delle rivelazioni di quest'uomo è sufficiente leggere un pezzetto di una sua vecchia conferenza: "Il presidente Eisenhower si incontrò con gli alieni di Betelgeuse e firmò un trattato formale, poi ricevette il primo ambasciatore, il cui titolo era Omnipotent Highness KRLLL. Il trattato diceva: gli alieni non avrebbero dovuto interferire nei nostri affari e noi non avremmo interferito nei loro. Essi potevano prendere degli umani in numero limitato e in periodi ben precisi per esami medici. Basi aliene dovevano essere costruite sotto riserve indiane ai quattro angoli di Utah, Colorado, Nuovo Messico, Arizona. E una in Nevada nell'area conosciuta come S-4, a 7 miglia a sud dell'Area 51 Dreamland. Fu istituito il progetto Redlight per testare il volo di apparecchi alieni. Un secondo progetto con il nome in codice di Snowbird fu istituito al fine di agire come copertura per Redlight. I velivoli di questo progetto furono costruiti con tecnologia convenzionale e vennero usati per confondere le idee sui veri avvistamenti e mascherarli. Un fondo multimilionario fu organizzato dall'Ufficio Militare della Casa Bianca. Questo fondo era usato per costruire 75 basi sotterranee.

O que mais chamou a atenção foi a chegada da comitiva presidencial. Tanto é que estou postando o vídeo. Devo dizer que gosto de comitivas. Desde criança, vejo passando comitivas. Morei no Rio, no tempo que era, a sede dos Estados Unidos do Brasil. Tudo mudou, até o nome do próprio país! Quando aqui era capital, a Polícia Especial, com suas grandes motocicletas, davam shows nas ruas. Botafogo, bairro que ainda fica entre o Catete e Copacabana, era uma das passagens preferidas das autoridades. Lembro de ter visto Eisenhower e tantos outros que vinham em carros abertos em meio às pequenas multidões.Hoje, sirene, é sinal de polícia ou ambulância. Nos anos cinqüenta, era esse o som das comitivas que atraíam meninos e meninas que esticavam seus pescoços, subiam em muros e árvores, para ter melhor ponto de vista. Este filme, fiz para mostrar a comitiva presidencial e só. www.joaosaboia.com | | |
