BRASILIA, Brazil (Reuters) - The world's largest free trade area was meant to open across 34 nations of the Americas on Jan. 1, 2005. The only visible sign of it in Latin America in the final days of 2004 is anti-U.S. graffiti sprayed on city walls.

``No to FTAA, No Yankee imperialism,'' reads one such message scrawled in a bus station near Brazil's presidential palace.
