They are a private company , NOT the U.S Government  

"In 1954, the democratically elected Guatemalan government of Colonel Jacobo Arbenz Guzmán was toppled by U.S.-backed forces led by Colonel Carlos Castillo Armas[25] who invaded from Honduras. Assigned by the Eisenhower administration, this military opposition was armed, trained and organized by the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency[26] (see Operation PBSUCCESS). The directors of United Fruit Company (UFCO) had lobbied to convince the Truman and Eisenhower administrations that Colonel Arbenz intended to align Guatemala with the Soviet Bloc."

ANd of course anyone who knows anything about the history of Central America know about US support of the corrupt and brutal dictatorships that ruled that part of the world. First it was because of United Fruit and related US companies and then because of anticommunism.

  • Reminds me of the economic migrants crossing France to reach UK.  Surely the country of asylum for these asylum seekers is Mexico. No doubt the lefties on here will blame Mr Trump.

  • Tons of room in Northern Saskatchewan Manitoba Alberta ...Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
