The Latin American Bloc: The Ignored Danger to Freedom*** Lula da Silva has expressed his desire for a full-fledged alliance with Cuba (while refusing to condemn Castro's human rights violations and crackdowns), opposed the war in Iraq and has expressed support for Saddam Hussein in the face of UN inspectors. His strategy for the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty: Only comply once all the countries with nuclear arsenals have disarmed. This is not exaggeration, he has openly stated this. That's right, a Castro ally, now president of Brazil, is calling for Brazil to obtain nuclear weapons-and not in secret either. One of Da Silva's goals is to promote the dropping of the trade restrictions on Cuba led by the West, to make Brazil independent of Western policy (which he calls "imperialist") and to promote "a multi-polar world" (where the US power is checked by another alliance as was during the Cold War). While refusing to take any major action against the Colombian FARC terrorists sponsored by Cuba, Brazil has established a "strategic partnership" (alliance) with China, strengthened ties with Russia and France, ended scientific cooperation treaties with the US, and has refused to support in anyway, the Free Trade Area of the Americas promoted by President Bush. Da Silva reportedly says that accepting the FETAA would make Brazil puppet of the US. Da Silva is also believed to be the main force behind what pressured Chile to oppose the Iraq War.

Da Silva also put Trotskyites, Communist Party officials, and open radicals in power in high places as Cabinet ministers, government officials and advisors, and throughout the government, intelligence, and military. His foreign policy chief, Marco Aurelio Garcia (also a Communist) is a founder of the Sao Paulo Forum (as we'll discuss below, supports terrorism) and is the executive director of the Forum. Each year he meets with the leader of the FARC terrorist group, Manuel Marulanda Velez.

Prior to the Iraq War, Brazilian hostility was still high, as the nation's government joined Russia, China, Cuba and Saddam Hussein in trying to get UN sanctions on Iraq lifted. Brazil also strongly opposed the US role in the war in Colombia fighting the Marxist narco-terrorists and rebels. Just like Chavez, Da Silva had also already begun putting Marxist ideology into the education system and police forces. In fact, Brazil took advantage of the Iraq War to justify a sudden surge in the research of advanced nuclear technology, which could be used to make nuclear weapons, although they denied any plans to do so. A senior official said that the issues in Iraq and North Korea also justified Brazil's nuclear research, but did not specifically point out that nuclear weapons would be built. Brazil also began a joint rocket program with China, which is often a cover for, or a program to assist in, ballistic missile programs.[viii] Brazil, a former nuclear power with the retained ability to enrich uranium, has the capabilities to build nuclear weapons at a near moment's notice.

Even after our success in the war in Iraq, Brazil's nature did not change. When the US began condemning Cuba for human rights violations and a recent brutal crackdown on the dissidents, Brazil openly condemned the United States' policy towards Fidel Castro as "aggressive". The moment was then seized to declare the foreign policy of Brazil as moving "independent" (hinting at moving away from a common position with America); focusing on "integration" with Argentina and the continent as a whole; trying to build a "multi-polar world" with Russia taking a lead role; and the promotion of reforming the UN Security Council to include Latin American representation.[ix]***
