U.S. DEPARTMENT OF STATE 1995 APRIL: PATTERNS OF GLOBAL TERRORISM, 1994 Department of State Publication 10239 Office of the Secretary Office of the Coordinator for Counterterrorism, Philip C. Wilcox, Jr. LATIN AMERICAN OVERVIEW CONTENTS Introduction Argentina Chile Colombia ... Uruguay Introduction Latin America continued to have a high level of international terrorist activity, although the number of attacks decreased by 40 percent from the previous year to 58 attacks. In July, an attack on the Argentine-Israeli Mutual Association (AMIA) in Buenos Aires killed nearly 100 persons and injured more than 200. The leading suspect in this incident is Hizballah. Twenty-one persons, of whom 12 were Jewish, were killed when a Panamanian commuter aircraft was bombed in July, apparently by a suicide bomber. These attacks raised concerns about the reported presence of members of Hizballah in Latin America, especially in the triborder area where Brazilian, Argentine, and Paraguayan territories meet. Colombia continued to suffer the highest incidence of terrorist violence in the region. Guerrillas attacked the democratic process by attempting to sabotage Colombia's 1994 presidential, congressional, and departmental elections. Rebel organizations also targeted petroleum companies and infiltrated trade unions, particularly in the banana and petroleum industries, intimidating rank-and-file union members. US business interests and Mormon missionaries were attacked by guerrillas, and nine US citizens were being held hostage by guerrillas at the end of the year. Six of these were US missionaries. Kidnapping continued as a major source of income for the Colombian guerrillas.

Features Forum America and Latin America Time for a new strategy by John H. Coatsworth George W. Bush is not the first president to make Latin America a personal priority. Nor is he the first to drop the region from his agenda when more urgent issues arise. Latin Americans are not sure whether they prefer presidential attention or neglect. Sometimes presidents can work wonders: FDR's Good Neighbor Policy, Eisenhower's late push for an Inter-American Development Bank, the short-lived bright side of Kennedy's Alliance for Progress, Carter's Panama Canal Treaty, and the vision of free trade in the Americas proposed by the first Bush. Other presidential moves damaged friends, destroyed relationships, and broke treaties: Teddy Roosevelt's Corollary, Wilson's promiscuous use of military force in the Caribbean and Central America, Dollar Diplomacy in the 1920s, and the excesses of the Cold War. Before the September 11 attacks on New York and Washington, Latin America (especially Mexico) was getting a lot of the president's time. Since that fateful date, Latin America has disappeared from Washington's agenda.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS ACROBAT VERSION MORE ARTICLES SEARCH ARTICLES Latin American Remittance Market: “El Dorado is in Los Angeles” by Jan Smith Ramos Director, Financial Services Industry Practice Every hour of every day, more than US $2.5 million worth of a certain product is silently transported across the Rio Grande. The product is usually in the customer’s hands within 24 hours and the commissions charged for transporting it add up to another $350,000 per hour. Until this product began to create substantial impacts across the Americas, few governments paid much attention to it. This lucrative business is not drugs, not contraband, and not human cargo; it is the hard earned salaries of millions of Latin American workers in the US who are sending money home. In 2001 they sent home $23 billion in personal remittances to family members and paid more than $3 billion in transfer fees and exchange rate spreads. This study of the high growth remittances area was written by Jan Smith, Director of our Financial Services Industry Practice and Managing Director of InfoAmericas.
