I don't think I disagree with you at all. I do not mean to downplay the harm done by organized crime, just to view the motivations of criminals from a materialist perspective. We can only pray that the CIA doesn't do to Lula what they did to Allende.

Allende existed in a different time and place. He was in contempt of Chile's Congress due to alleged violations of Chile's Constitution, was supported by Marxist paramilitaries being supported by the USSR, and had praised the Communist revolution in Cuba and the dictator that it had brought to power.
