Israel sells arms to Human Rights abusers in Myanmar.

Israel also provided arms to the death squads in Central America.





When the PLO sailed out of Beirut and into a second exile in Tunisia, its fighters left most of their weapons behind. Israel managed to capture most of these arms, and reportedly sold them to the Contras death squads in their war against the left-wing Nicaraguan government.

“Everyone knows that the sellers were Israelis and that they had grabbed the arms from the Palestinians in Lebanon,” one Contra told a Mexican newspaper in 1988. “I have no doubt – many people told me so – that people involved with the CIA were sent to Israel to deal with the shipments.”

US governments needed to use proxies such as Israel to help arm and train its allies among Latin American dictatorships

Nice try
