I think some of us are missing the point.
Yes, the United States has played an role in shaping Argentina
in the past, but the reason why we're claiming she's actually
slipping in to various degrees of psychosis is because of the
intensity of her claims.
1) Why assassinate her? She's going to be gone living in the Seychelles
in a year anyways.
2) Cables leaked from the Embassy show only a very mild interest in
Argentine affairs. The way Cristina portrays it, it's as if all we/the government
does is eat, sleep, drink Argentina. As I've said before, how many times have
you been asked something about Arge/BsAs and it being in Brazil by other
Americans/Canadians.
3) Trade wars by proxy. Sure, China and Russia are looking to Argentina
for imports/exports, but this is not overlapping with US interests. For one,
all of us know how expensive/difficult it is to get products from USA in to
Arge, and when we return home, how uncommon it is to see AR products
available for purchase. For me, Blueberries from Patagonia is the only
one I've seen.
4) The opposition isn't saying she's out of touch just because they're
the opposition. They're saying it because this is the type of language
Chavez used when he was saying shit like how the US probably gave
him cancer. Just because you're a head of state and a nation has in
the past meddled in your internal affairs, does not mean all your
theories and conspiracies hold weight. It's 2014, US interests are in
China, Syria/Iraq/Afghanistan/Pakistan, and Central America. Trying
to intervene in Argentine affairs would be a wast of resources and
diplomatic energy. There's nothing for the US in Argentina really.
This conspiracy would make more sense if the head of it was
the UK. At least then there is some foundation to back up
interest in the affairs of the nation.
