Quick Context 🌍
Chile elected a Marxist–Leninist leader, Allende, in a calm and peaceful process. Though only 36% of the nation approved, it marked a huge change in the political landscape of Latin America.
✨ Highlight: Nixon, with his buddy Kissinger, went all "spy mode" and increased covert ops in Chile. Why? Let's dive in!
Fear of "Another Cuba":
- What's the fuss? Nixon was scared Chile would turn into another Cuba, i.e., a communist stronghold so close to the US.
- Real-world example: It's like when you see your little sibling copying your teen rebellious phase and you're like, "Oh no, not again!"
- CIA’s Two Cents: The US didn't have any major stakes in Chile, but having another communist neighbor would hurt their ego big time.
Following Tradition
- History Lesson: Both Kennedy and Johnson spent cash to mess with Allende's previous presidential campaigns.
- Nixon's Thought: "If they can do it, why can't I?"
- Real-world example: Remember when you took an extra cookie because your elder brother did the same last time? Classic "follow the leader".
