Just curious. As far back as I remember I only hear about them destabilizing countries that aren’t fully in the pocket of American powerplayers. Sometimes they assassinate people, sometimes instigate coups, subvert media… and the #1 way to encounter them seems to be to try and take back control locally of one’s country’s oil and other valuable resources.
So my question is, have they ever done anything good?
Conclusion: Yes they have done maybe as many as 3 somewhat minor things that were not atrocious.
