> .. human rights groups.. referred to the Reagan Administration as “an apologist for some of the worst horrors of our time.” #HumanRightsSecretaryAbrams ... particularly notorious for his denials of human rights violations or apologetics for them, in #CentralAmerica and Turkey particularly, and for his attacks, in the familiar style of his Stalinist models, on human rights advocates. In recognition.. Abrams was placed in charge of #LatinAmerican affairs... #TurningTheTide #ElliotAbrams

@DetritusBooks It's like it's an orphanage for fascists they schtup for.#ElliotAbrams @rbreich Bohemian Grove meets School of the Americas/Phoenix Projecta Domestica Or am I just old?

.> Why in the world would anyone want to resurrect Elliott Abrams?...

.> It is particularly risible that Abrams would be appointed to a position charged with maintaining integrity in U.S. public diplomacy....

.> He was convicted in 1991 of two misdemeanor counts of unlawfully withholding information from Congress, but received a pardon from President George H.W. Bush. Lawrence Walsh, the independent counsel who investigated Iran-Contra, prepared multiple felony counts against Abrams, who eventually admitted that he knew more than he acknowledged in congressional testimony. Several years later, he was publicly sanctioned by the District of Columbia Bar for giving false testimony to Congress about Iran-Contra.

.> in the 1980s, Abrams regularly covered up atrocities committed by U.S.-backed military forces in El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala. He did the same for the Contras in Nicaragua, and, as a result, was heavily criticized by Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International. The Lawyers Committee, Americas Watch, and Helsinki Watch collaborated on a report in the mid-1980s that charged Abrams with “undermining the purpose of the human rights bureau in the State Department.”

.> Under Abrams’ watch, over the 12 years of the Reagan/Bush Sr. administrations, 75,000 Salvadorians were killed. In the village of El Mozote, the army’s Atlácatl Battalion herded women and children into a church convent and opened fire with U.S.-supplied M-16 automatic rifles before burning the building down. One hundred and forty children, average age six, were killed. In 1994, with blood still dripping from his hands, Abrams referred to the U.S.’s record on El Salvador as a “fabulous achievement.”
.> In addition to supporting the Salvadorian junta, Abrams was a defender of the Guatemalan Montt regime which oversaw the mass murder, rape and torture of scores of Indigenous Ixil Mayan people in the 1980s. The Montt regime was so brutal that it was later classified by the United Nations as genocidal. From his conviction for lying to Congress during the Iran-Contra affair, to his roles supporting the Iraq war, scuttling the Iran nuclear deal, and attempting to orchestrate a coup in Venezuela as recently as 2019, one thing is clear: Abrams doesn’t have a diplomatic bone in his body.

From here this looks like Biden reprising Trump's, "Only the best".

Nauseating, and a hard reminder of what a terrible state the USA is and has been.

Still far better a Biden reprising than a Trump extending.

Maybe some #Afghan refugees will get to #Ukraine and #EasternEurope. They can show how things work out after #Rambo visits with #StingerMissiles. The #Refugees (#StatelessPeople) can talk with #TomHanks (#ElliotAbrams, #VictoriaNuland). #MotoHashiSeiIchi's #AlexeiInBelarus (near #Chernobyl) and the #peasant women can teach the #EliteWarring planners some #Farming. #BertrandRussel thought gardening could make #aristocrats less prone to destroy eveyone else's efforts.
