The U.S. meddles in elections in 47 countries – Interesting news from CNN –
The mainstream media have made a fuss about Russian intervention in the U.S. presidential election and President Trump is criticized for his alleged involvement in the intervention every day. I have never picked up this news because it is nonsense.

Reading the article below, you can see that the U.S. “has meddled in 81 elections in 47 countries.” If political intervention and military interventions are added, the U.S. has been involved in unlawful acts everywhere in the world. And yet, the U.S. will never allow any influence on the U.S. election. This is nothing but *Gianism.

I think that those who bring such thing into question must be unexceptionally psychopaths. Interestingly, however, this news was reported by CNN. I wonder if CNN is changing or they are self-abandoned. That’s hard to say. We have to wait and see a little more.

<Translator’s Note>*Gianism – It is Japanese English. One of main characters in a Japanese manga series “Doraemon”, boss of the kids called Gian, uses the word “Yours is mine and mine is mine.” ‘Gianism” refers to this Gian’s words and actions.

U.S. meddles in elections in 47 countries

CNN reported that the U.S. government meddled in 81 elections in 47 countries from 1946 to 2000.

CNN reported in a program that since the U.S. have always investigated the Russian influence on the election in the U.S., there is almost no chance doubt about whether the U.S. never meddles in the elections of foreign countries will be raised.

A researcher at the Institute for Politics and Strategy at Carnegie-Mellon University said in an interview with CNN that the investigation of the U.S. involvement in meddling in foreign elections from the viewpoint of sociology shows that the U.S. meddled with 81 elections in 47 countries from 1946 to 2000.

This researcher gave an example of the U.S. meddling in the 1948 Italian election and said: “The U.S was afraid of a victory of the Communist party in the election. So the U.S. made every effort to prevent a Communist party victory.”

Furthermore, according to him, the U.S. has meddled in the elections of Chile, Argentina, Japan, West Germany, Brazil, Indonesia, Lebanon, Malaysia and Iran for decades and the U.S. has usually supported candidates or political parties that go along with the U.S.

He answered that one-third of these interventions are public and two-third are covert.

やはり日本の選挙でも、自民党が米国の支援を受けてきたことが判明。

>アメリカは47カ国の選挙に干渉し、自国に同調する候補や政党を支援してきた。共産党の勝利を恐れ、全力で共産党を妨害した。3分の2は秘密裏に、3分の1は公然と行われたt.co/LAIjhakJcW

それにしても、50年代にはアメリカから金もらい、田中角栄あたりから自立したものの利権政治になってしまい、政治改革やって政党助成金入れたら中央集権化して安倍さんが生まれるという自民党のどうしようもなさよ。 t.co/blI1wDaCAG

At any rate, the LDP was given money by the U.S. in the 1950s, Kakuei Tanaka started patronage politics although Japan became independent, the party carried out political changes and received party subsidy, and as a result political power was centralized. Consequently, the Abe administration was born. The LDP is beyond saving.

「数十年間にわたり、アメリカがチリ、アルゼンチン、日本、西ドイツ、ブラジル、インドネシア、レバノン、マレーシア、イランの選挙に干渉してきたことに触れ、アメリカはたいてい、自国に同調する候補や政党を支援してきたとしました」t.co/PlCPvuYl4c
