I am quite surprised on the lack of knowledge about El Salvador. I would expect this from other platforms, but not here.
Please get informed before comparing this system to a concentration camp. Now if the administration of the United States wants to use El Salvador's system to push their agenda, you should continue to blame the United States and not El Salvador.
Before Bukele, El Salvador had a level of corruption and violence completely out of proportion. There were so many different approaches made to eradicate the complex issue and none of them worked. If you have a group of people that are terrorizing the population, you cannot be diplomatic if the approach. Bukele turned his country around overnight.
They are concentration camps whether you agree with them or not. Sounds like you are into them though so that's weird.
Ok, so what do you think is the solution to the problem that El Salvador was facing?
Let's say what they did was the only way. Why are our immigrants and others now being sent to forever prison there without due process? These are two separate issues.
You are spot on! Why are people being sent to a prison outside of the country without any trial or due process? That is to say that the United States and its administration is at fault not El Salvador.
How is the Salvador, 1/4 the size of South Carolina, supposed to stand up to a command from the United States? Think about that. You have to realize how much influence and power the United States has had over the rest of the continent, they have played this game for decades.
I am sure if the United States says we need them back, El Salvador will release them no questions asked. We cannot sit here and blame the people on the other side when the ones in the same turf are calling the shots.
