School of the Assassins
The U.S.-run School of the Americas, located at Fort Benning, Georgia, is a training academy for the Latin American military. In recent years, SOA has attracted large- scale demonstrations and arrests. What brings protesters? SOA has produced a string of death squad killers who specialize in the murder of non- combatants, including children, priests, nuns and bishops. SOA graduates have distinguished themselves in the arts of homicide and massacre, earning their alma mater the sobriquet of School of the Assassins.
