    Something smells funny about the recent denunciation of maverick Peruvian presidential candidate Ollanta Humala for alleged human rights violations. Before the accusations, Humala was riding high as the leading candidate in Peru's presidential elections. Investigations illustrate that Humala's accusers are subsidized by the US Government funded Agency for International Development (USAID) and the National Endowment for Democracy (NED). Washington may be interfering in this election to protect its own interests.

    Mos def, thats why for some time, Lourdes Flores (right wing filth) was up in the polls
    I don't know about Ollanta Humala's alleged actions, its not very clear what he did or did not do, so I reserve my judgement on him until I can get some more info on him

    But yes, the US will do just about anything to sabotage a fair race
