The
Developing Andean War
Corporate
Investment and Government Double-Dealing
By
TONI SOLO
The United States and Britain make suitable
partners. Abuse and torture at the Hola camp in Kenya in the
1950s, Fort Morbut in Aden in the 1960s and the Castlereagh interrogation
centre for twenty years in Ireland remain potent symbols of British
war crimes. Colonialism and torture are inseparable. In Iraq,
US and British military are doing yet again what they have habitually
done in the past--the colonial dirty work of governments determined
to protect private business interests above all else.
Plenty has also come to light
demonstrating the Bush regime's corporate welfare for businesses
like Bechtel, Halliburton and Carlyle in Iraq. The wholesale
murder of civilians and widespread torture of detainees there
result directly from efforts to quell resistance to control by
foreign corporations of the country's resources. It goes without
saying these companies are determined to outsource onto domestic
taxpayers in the US and the UK the cost of the military muscle
necessary to achieve that control.
The same is true in the developing
war in the Andes where the war in Colombia seems to be spreading
inexorably into Ecuador and Venezuela. There, as in Iraq, Britain
and Spain have faithfully supported the US. But while in Iraq
the war was originally justified as part of the "war on
terrorism", the Andean war is also dressed up as part of
the "war on drugs". It is worth noting the Andean war's
relationship with big business and dubious international finance.
Tiny Anguilla--Colombia's
biggest foreign investor?1
Anguilla is a small island
in the West Indies which briefly hit the news in 1969 when it
tried to secede from the neighbouring British colony Nevis-St.
Kitts. As with the Cayman Islands, Bermuda, the British Virgin
Islands, the Bahamas, Nevis and other Caribbean islands, Anguilla
provides handy offshore banking and financial services for tax-shy
plutocrats, multinational corporations, Wall Street and City
of London financial houses and assorted arms and drugs dealers
– and very likely terrorists as well. In the first
quarter of 2003 Anguilla was the largest foreign investor in
Colombia at US$130m, followed by the British Virgin Islands at
US$82m. Pan that out over a year and it amounts to over US$800m.
Tiny Anguilla (population 12,738
in 2003) sees little return on the investment, The main beneficiaries
of capital outflows from Colombia in the same period were the
United States (US$123m), Britain (US$74m), France (US$47m) and
Holland (US$34m). Run that out over the year and the US and its
European co-investors are extracting over US$1bn annually.
Here we are in the fiscal twilight
zone of offshore banking and financial services where the transactions
of corporate household names share computer printouts with the
deals of murderous drugs traffickers supposedly "wanted"
by the US government, like Colombian death squad leader Salvatore
Mancuso. It is difficult to understand what Anguilla's and the
Birtish Virgin Islands' involvement in Colombia means. The banking
secrecy laws of these offshore centers make it impossible to
discover who they are fronting for or what larger financial processes
are made to work by the cash flows geared through them.
The invisible
hand and the regulator's blind eye
As economist Michael Hudson
has said2 "Prestigious accounting firms and law partnerships
busy themselves devising tax-avoidance ploys and creating a "veil
of tiers" to provide a cloak of invisibility for the wealth
built up by embezzlers, tax evaders, a few drug dealers, arms
dealers and government intelligence agencies to use for their
covert operations." When the New York Attorney General Eliot
Spitzer pinned convictions for dodgy offshore practices on various
prestigious Wall Street financial houses with fines of a measly
US$1.5bn (greater than the total annual budget of countries like
Honduras or Nicaragua), it was the merest blip compared to the
amount of cash handled by offshore financial centers.
Hudson argues cogently that
these offshore centers are an important source of funds to finance
US government debt. He dates this from the start of the Eurodollar
markets by the Bank of England and British finance houses at
a time when the British were looking for ways to support sterling
in the 1960s and 1970s. He points to the paradox that the US
and British governments who have done most to promote these offshore
scams now suffer most from one of the contradictions they engender.
Companies use offshore vehicles to inflate profit statements
to shareholders and understate tax returns to government.
This Faustian dependence on
dubious offshore hot money may or may not be a factor in British
Chancellor Gordon Brown's resistance to joining the euro. But
it seems clear that Federal Reserve chairman Alan Greenspan cherishes
these offshore sources of foreign exchange. They help him prop
up the dollar so as to make feasible the tax-cutting scams of
Republican soul-mates like Grover Norquist and arguments for
unregulated "free trade". Forget the high minded neo-liberal
clap-trap about freedom. Corporations want deregulation throughout
the Americas as part of US Trade Representative Robert Zoellick's
"free trade" snake-oil program so they can shift money
around to beat tax regimes even faster than they do already.
More death
squad for your dollar
The natural extension of this
dodgy regulation-phobia has been to contract out military operations
to private mercenary businesses. The effects are evident in Iraq.
In Colombia, US based Dyncorp and the British based Defence Systems
(a subsidiary of the US company Armorguard) have been the most
notorious of these mercenary contractors. Subcontracting some
military roles, mainly training, to such companies affords governments
deniability in the case of abuses by allowing the mercenaries
to range free from normal statutory controls that would apply
to government armed forces.
These companies have been implicated
in providing training to the paramilitary death-squads that repress
legitimate civil dissent in Colombia under the pretext of "fighting
terrorism". The US Occidental Petroleum and Spain's Repsol
have been urged by Amnesty International to improve controls
on their security arrangements in Colombia's Arauca department.
British controlled BP-Amoco's use of contractors implicated in
training local paramilitaries confirms that all these companies
operate policies that tend to regard paramilitary crimes against
the local population as part of the price of doing business in
Colombia.3
Britain is reported to be the
second largest supplier of military aid to Colombia after the
US, although its convoluted arms export licensing system allows
the UK government to minimize its own direct role in the arms
trade. Spain recently sold Colombia over 30 heavy battle tanks.
Renowned for their ability in the "war on drugs" to
intercept high speed coastal launches and low flying light aircraft?
Or for their astonishing capability in the "war on terrorism"
to trek on foot through mountains and forests hunting guerrillas?
No.
Most likely, they are for use
against Venezuela. That's if Colin Powell and the Pentagon can
stop fighting long enough to remember their main job--providing
imperial muscle for giant multinational corporations. As September
11th 2001 showed conclusively, defending the people of the United
States is not a priority for either the Pentagon or the State
Department.
Drugs and
terror--through the looking glass (yawn...) one more time
The public relations nature
of the "war on drugs" is readily seen from the double
standards applied that are so familiar from the fictional "war
on terror". Just as Miami Cuban assassins like Orlando Bosch
or Haitian mass murderers Jean Tatun and Guy Philippe are protected
by the US as being OK "our" terrorists, so drugs kingpins
like Salvatore Mancuso are protected as being OK "our"
drugs traffickers. A brief look at the treatment meted out to
other drugs traffickers confirms this.4
In April 1988, the United States
Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) and the Honduran security services
illegally snatched Honduran narcotics dealer Ramon Matta Ballesteros
from the Honduran capital Tegucigalpa. They abducted him to the
United States where he was interrogated under torture (they burned
him repeatedly with a high voltage stun gun) before being tried
and convicted. He remains in prison. His abduction followed that
of Mexican Humberto Alvarez Machain accused of complicity, like
Matta Ballesteros in the 1985 murder of a DEA agent.
Alvarez Machain fought his
case on the illegality of the abduction. He won. Ballesteros
did not. Among many similar cases involving the DEA, that of
Uruguayan Francisco Toscanino stands out for the horrific torture
applied under DEA supervision in Brazil. While the courts condemned
the use of torture in the Toscanino case, DEA torture of Matta
Ballesteros was passed over. This kind of routine torture is
another link with the bogus "war on terrorism".
The anti-drugs and anti-terrorist
actvities of the United States and its allies exist in symbiosis.
Both are failing because both are fake. If the US is prepared
to abduct individuals like Matta Ballesteros, Alvarez Machain
and Francisco Toscanoni, they could just as easily snatch the
drugs cartel leaders who control the Colombian paramilitaries.
They do not because those individuals are key allies who deploy
cut-price, twice-removed terror against armed opposition to the
United States main ally in the Andes, the Colombian government.
As a group the Colombian drugs
cartels and their paramilitary cohorts channel much-prized foreign
exchange through offshore banking centers into US and European
capital markets. That is one reason why President Uribe, with
US backing, is currently trying to push through legislation to
legalize the paramilitaries. Another reason is that legalizing
the paramilitaries will make it easier for the US and the corrupt
Venezuelan opposition to mobilise them against democratically
elected President Hugo Chavez.
Wrapping
up blood and guts on the way to Caracas
Trying to gather up into a
manageable skein all the threads of deceit from the record of
the crooked Bush regime and Tony Blair's cabinet-full of war
criminals is a bit like gathering up the viscera of a gutted,
badly slaughtered animal. Blood and shit are everywhere. The
dirt and slime stick.
Among the sickly, glistening
reality, the fawning pooches in Downing Street try to disown
the mass murder and systematic torture in Iraq along with their
plutocrat butcher-handlers in the White House. These governments
are never going to regulate the offshore financial centers that
channel money from arms and drugs and illicit tax-evasion scams
into US and British capital markets. And they'll support drugs
dealing paramilitaries along with corporate mercenary contractors
as long as they need to until they can mobilise some more final
solution to their energy needs.
The pending corporate-friendly
"free trade" agreements with the Andean coutnries are
a necessary part of that solution. But it will take a US provoked
war in Venezuela to make it really final. The same perverted
logic that led to the catastrophe in Iraq is at work in the Andes.
