More Optical Diplomacy According to WikiLeak Documents

AllHeadlineNews  is reporting that "Venezuela is offering free eye care to Mexican peasants in a program that appears to double as a means of political indoctrination, according to the latest Wikileaks releases. The program, called Operation Miracle, concerns both Mexican and U.S. diplomats. The Wikileaks document dated October 2008 describes a meeting between diplomats during which they discussed the possibility that low-income Mexicans might return from their medical care in Venezuela to participate in political protests and other disruptions."
