POPSCIA involvement in murderous Operation Condor The US ambassador to Paraguay, Robert White, feared that the US connection to Condor might be publicly revealed at a time when the assassination in the USA of Chilean former minister Orlando Letelier and his American assistant Ronni Moffitt was being investigated. White cabled that "it would seem advisable to review this arrangement to insure that its continuation is in US interest."

It has been argued that while the US was not a key member, it "provided organizational, intelligence, financial and technological assistance to the operation."

At the same time as things are drying out to the point where a spark, or a cigarette can start them, there is also less water to put them out.
