Did US train soldiers for massacre?

The massacre in the village of Las Dos Erres has become one of the most notorious from Guatemalas civil war, which was the longest-running conflict in the Americas in the 20th century and claimed the highest casualty rate. The vast majority of those killed were indigenous Mayan civilians and a U.N.-sponsored truth commission termed the war, genocide.

Why is this a question? They trained the Guatemalan and Salvadoran soldiers and gave them millions of dollars.

Now that Otto Perez is about to be elected president of Guatemala he will cover-up the USA role and his own. He was a Colonel under Efrain Rios Montt the butcher and was trained at Shool of the America - Ft Benning ............. I live in Guatemala and the suppression continues

This young lady is totally correct, the us training took place, once those guatemalan special forces went back to Guatemala, they where not man enough to find an enemy army but they attacked unarmed, natives so they could continue with their masacre-genocide agenda. COWARDS!

@musa78692 no,but you need to kill yourself!

[jbsoriginality]

@cerritoboy there is to one thing to prove: where the fuck did you get your information?

[jbsoriginality]

@911insidejob81 but there has been thousands more terrorists killed. the people in our armed forces know they are protecting our country. if we were to stop now then all the people who have died would have died in vane. torture has provided vital information on whereabouts and such of terrorists. we should arrest and kill if neccesary, the people who started the war and also anybody else who had anything to do with 9/11.

@cerritoboy Yeah goatherder and I bet you live in L.A. collecting welfare right? Don't like America, then get your sorry ass back home where you belong.

[mrjforall]

Why does anyone need to be "trained" to massacre helpless civilians? Anybody can gun down helpless, unarmed civilians. Anybody. Training? Please.

We as Guatemalans are bery praud of our military and hope to be bether, this do not mine that we are glad for all the things that did happened in the past, and for tings that maybe happen in the future. At the end everybody knows that is no the Military the responsable for any massacre but the GOVERNMENT that does anithing for dem mony even if this mines Killing they own people, and who pays for it.

[ulizes1313]

U.S.A do not train Guatemalan soldiers. Kaibiles are who train the Marine core, rangers, and US sent the best ones, this is only what I know! Kaibiles are Kaibiles by they own capabilities, if Kaibiles are profecional soldiers that do not mine that they are asesins, instead Kaibiles are going al over the world to figth for peace. This is not a good way to say thak you with videos like this, afther the best militaris of the American Continent gat train with the Kaibiles.
