Thanks for the new information on this incident. The other threads did not include the fact that this was an on-going problem with the Chilaen security trying to throw their weight around. I'm happy our presidents do not have to rely on foreign bodyguards as they travel the world.

"...with the Chilaen security trying to throw their weight around."

An attack of any kind on the President's security people is an attack on the President himself. Chile owes us an apology and some big changes in their security personnel and their training. I'm amazed that nobody in Chilean security is dead.

The president of the USA should never rely , depend, or TRUST ! any foreign body guards or foreign security PERIOD .
The foreign body guards or security should only be a backup or help for the Secret Service. I guess John Kerrys idea to break up a fight would be to go to his French buddies and have a GLOBLE TEST before any action.
