NGOs, an extension of US foreign policy

The world is facing a decline in political rights and civil liberties, according to the organization Freedom House. Many US NGOs, like Freedom House, go into other countries to provide humanitarian aid but it seems their hidden agenda is to make these countries more like the US. Mark Weisbrot says many NGOs were set up to act as an extension of US foreign policy and set up in places like Venezuela and Haiti.

Why are they called NGOs when they're funded by government, usually USAID? In Canada, they're usually funded by CIDA. They're proxy organizations for neoliberalism and imperialism.

Care International, World Vision, Oxfam International, and the rest are all front organizations posing as humanitarians.

Russia, Serbia, Ukraine etc. are full of NGO bastards

Those are offices of CIA ,George Soros and other globalist scum!

They are laboratories for creating globalist "color revolutions" in service of USA imperialism !

It's extremely amusing, there are NO SHORTAGE of Foreign NGOs in America. many funded directly by Russia, Venezuela and China. The Chinese have established Confucius institutes which promote Chinese foreign policy and Chinese interests. Russia's Russia today freely meets with the most outrageous political leaders in the United States, like Lyndon Larouche and promotes there viewpoints. Venezuela funded Venezuela Information Office, but you don't see Obama getting all whiny about it.

NGO = Government operations and government spending with NO FOIA REQUIREMENTS!

It has never bee so easy to fund secret black ops groups to influence the worlds politics under the guise of "helping people."

These people see no borders, just them having power over us, were ever we may be!  Bill Clinton's CGI talks openly about striving to pay people $3 a day for their labor. The US-China trade ambassador for the US says that an one room apartment with a tv is a good life in China.

I'd love to give that host a double-dipping too.

Nothing spontaneous about these uprisings. I am torn because I sympathize with these people who want to throw off these autocratic governments, but at the same time I supsect that the U.S. wants to put new puppets in place. I do not trust the U.S. government.

Thank a rich fucker so you can stay poor. Gee thanks rich kids..being poor is such a fucking honor.

[DrFeelRotten]

This is the rich vs everyone else. That's exactly what it boils down to. Every day in the US we're told how the rich provide all the jobs so we need them which is patently BULLSHIT. We're supposed to like being poor so they can be rich.
