Churchill awakes, see's US border fence

From San Diego in the Pacific to Brownsville in the Caribbean, an iron curtain has descended across the Continent. Behind that line lie all the capitals of the ancient states of Central and Southern America. Mexico DF, Guatemala City, Lima, Bogota, Quito, Panama City, Managua and Santiago, all these famous cities and the populations around them lie in what I must call the Capitalist sphere, and all are subject in one form or another, not only to American influence but to a very high and, in many cases, increasing measure of control from Washington. Caracas alone -- Venezuela with its immortal glories -- is free to decide its future at an election under International observation. The American-dominated Mexican government has been encouraged to make enormous and wrongful inroads upon America itself, and mass immigrations of millions of Mexicans on a scale grievous and undreamed of are now taking place. The capitalists, which were very small in all these L. American states, have been raised to pre-eminence and power far beyond their numbers and are seeking everywhere to obtain totalitarian control. Police governments are prevailing in nearly every case, and so far, except in Bolivia and Venezuela, there is no true democracy....
