The cause of the Northern Triangle problem

Most migrants coming today are from the northern triangle. They are El Salvador, Honduras, and Guatemala. Now I'm going to read their history to explain why they cant fix their countries like the Republicans keep saying that they need to do. Here is a brief history of these countries

el Salvador in the 1980s had the juntas that were trained and supported by America. This led to a 12
year civil war. These junta during this war committed massacres and war crimes. These are the
people that were trained and supported by the USA doing these terrible things. After the war they had the peace treaty were they disbanded the police because they were part of the terrible crimes. So while they were rebuilding their government and police force, the USA sent the gang known as MS-13 to el Salvador. This gang was created in the USA not El Salvador. The gang quickly got a good hold of the country but it wasn't until they met Ernesto Deras that they became a true threat. Ernesto Deras also known as Satan was a trained veteran that was by the US. He turn these simple gang to a transnational threat that is heavily militarized.

Honduras in the 1914 US banana company owned a million acres. 1920 they owned all the good land and Hondurans had to work under them. The government was annoyed and wanted to do something about it. So the US government started to interfere into their government either politically or with the military led to the only thing truly standing by the 1960s was the military in Honduras. The military was political institution standing in the country. By the 80s we had full control of the country. We then militarized the country to deal with the Sandinista government in Nicaragua. Which was another country we destroyed. This led to tyranny were certain political leaders were assassinated or disappeared. in 2006 Honduras finally got someone that was going to fix the country. but after 3 years the USA supported a coup that overthrew the government. since then the tyranny came back, 2/3 of the people live in poverty, and ms-13 and Barrio 18 which is modeled after ms-13 took hold of the country

Guatemala in the 1900s had the united fruit company run the company. They controlled everything and had the government as a puppet. So guatemalians decide to fix their country so they overthrow the government. The USA sends troops and threaten to overthrow the government if they don't do what they say to this new government. Telling them to be exactly like the last government. in 1931 a dictator takes control and tells the landowners that were supplying the bananna for the country to punish their employees however they want. This included murder and rape. in 1944 They overthrew the government and had a panel to run the country until 1950s where they had free elections. Finally fixing their country until 4 years later when the CIA overthrew the government triggering 40 years of civil war. in this time period the Maya Genocide also known as the silent Holocaust happened. This was when the government killed 42000 plus maya civilians. The government created by the USA. This mess led to giant poverty and gangs ruling the country, and tyranny.

This happened to most of central America and alot of south America by the way im just talking about these country in specific.
