School of Americas

The article involving this topic is what i refer to as a bias load of one sided information. The article only mentions one side of what the school causes and adds no information on their goals, how often they are achieved, their justification for what they do, etc. So i looked at some other articles alike this and guess what i found? The same things again. I had to look through three pages to find an article that even mentioned what the School of America's aims to achieve! Now while i agree the country could find stronger ways to spend its tax dollars and the School of America's has many flaws, i believe they deserve a fighting chance and a mention of their side in these ridiculously bias articles. The School of America's is out to protect the US and citizens of other countries in dire need. The S.O.A. overthrows strong governments to avoid countries becoming too strong with insane dictators mistreating citizens of their country and possibly threatening the U.S. The S.O.A. is an organization to protect us from conflicts like the ones in Iraq, where we ended up losing over five thousand troops. Now that i have made my point about the aims and goals of the S.O.A. My reasoning for support on shutting them down is their goals are flawed. Sending people of a country to overthrow it with US military tactics is mainly used to resolve dictatorship problems in countries. The problem is giving foreign people military tactics to overthrow a government means they are strong enough to rule that government, which simply cycles the same problem, and we're forced to send another group to infiltrate the country in order to get that person out of power. The S.O.A. also carries with them another problem. After a leader is taken out of a country, how does its people react? Take for instance when president John F. Kennedy was assassinated. How did the US react? Thats right, the country became a yellow journalism filled chaotic mess. These are my reasons against the S.O.A. and their flaws acts of "service".
