Some of the former Colombian servicemen arrested after last week’s assassination of Haiti’s president previously received U.S. military training, according to the Pentagon, raising fresh questions about the United States’ ties to Jovenel Moïse’s death.

“A review of our training databases indicates that a small number of the Colombian individuals detained as part of this investigation had participated in past U.S. military training and education programs, while serving as active members of the Colombian Military Forces,” Lt. Col. Ken Hoffman, a Pentagon spokesman, said in a statement to The Washington Post.

The Pentagon’s review is ongoing, Hoffman said. He did not say how many of the men received training or precisely what it entailed.

When the dust settles America will need to arrest the people behind this global unrest,the animals pushing for the “Great Reset” and the put them on trial for treason and genocide. America will need to have a global manhunt.

Not an “assassination plot.” An actual assassination.

A long time ago, the US saw the leader of Vietnam, Ngo Dinh Diem, as a ally in our fight against Communism. But Diem had some problems, and JFK eventually decided to have Diem assassinated. This didn’t really work out well for anyone.

I think Joe did something similar, but not because he was fighting Communism. Probably more about money passing (or not passing) under the table.

I guess solid exfiltration planning was not part of the curriculum. Bummer.

Y'think ?

We've foolishly opened our nation up to infiltrators who took our good nature and 'elements', only to turn around and use them against us.

And why not ?

Our own politicians and government has been doing that for decades.

I’m surprised General Milley hasn’t tried to take out POTUS Trump yet.

Nothing of this magnitude was run by some SSGT in the day room in Fort Huachuca.

Bidet was probably kept in the dark as the operation was probably green lighted by one of the gang actually running this fiasco administration. Given the inquisitiveness of our media, nothing will come of it. “just a coincidence” will be the explanation.

Put a few coincidences together. Most were from Columbia...trained by the US Army.....wore DEA hats....we have large contingent DEA contingent in Columbia.

By itself, it doesn’t really mean much. After all, John f-ing Kerry also received U.S. military training.

Probably won’t happen. It’ll all be shoved down another rabbit hole, data sanitized and forgotten. Americans have a short memory.

So they probably went to School of the Americas while they were on active duty with the Colombian Army. Not particularly uncommon.
