CISPES observers at Salvadoran Elections 2014

Carl and Carolyne are in El Salvador with the 70 person strong
CISPES delegation of observers for the 2014 elections in El
Salvador. Carl has been with CISPES almost since its inception
over twenty years ago. Carolyne is part of a new generation that
sees the work of CISPES as a shared pathway between cultures and
generations.


The history of El Salvador has been narrated as a history of
violence. Nothing in that particular narrative includes the
history of US intervention, the history of the US training of the
worst perpetrators of violence, the agenda that agencies within
the US Government see as the supervening  business interests
that require the reorganization of the 'State' to their own
requirements.  CISPES has succeeded in changing the course
of the JUggernaut.


CISPES, Carl, and Carolyne demonstrate just how false that
narrative is. And they tell us now, just how they did it. Can
their example follow ?


(CISPES has called what amounts to an apology from the former US
Ambassador to El Salvador)


Watch El Salvador, and watch with care
