LocationSouth America

Operation Condor was a US-backed campaign of assassination and terrorisation carried out in South America.

The US Deep state government provided planning, coordinating, training on torture[1], technical support and supplied military aid to the Juntas during the Johnson, Nixon, Ford, Carter, and the Reagan administrations.[2] Such support was frequently routed through the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA).

Projection

The operation is described in a now declassified 1978 CIA document as a "cooperative effort by the intelligence/security services of several South American countries to combat terrorism and subversion."[3]
