A concerning example regarding what I'm saying is the fact that over Rio de Janeiro there are drug cartels which distribute cocaine packed in Israel's flag. I wish I was kidding.

Is it because they're Jewish? They support Palestine's genocide? No, they're Christian Neopentecostal Evangelicals who apply their (unofficial but VERY real) rules based on the Bible and make money over cocaine cartels. Israel's flag is a way of showing they are God's chosen and the true governors of Rio de Janeiro.

This is only a superficial example.

Thanks for the article! Yes, South America is not free from this. One thing I have learned in my life is that how similar people we are everywhere... only circumstances make us seem different. Long gone are my admiration for Scandinavians! What most South America seems however (specially if a sizeable country), is distant enough from China, US and Russia to be easily dragged along in a conflict... and also their governments are weak enough to implement a global draft for instance.
