Contrary to TR’s post-Presidency boasts, and also contrary to official U.S,
history fables, the phony Pharaoh of America did not “build the Panama Canal”.
The concept was long in the works before TR even arrived on the scene. At
most, TR can be credited with expediting the stalled project; but the manner in
which he did this amounts to yet another shameful and uncalled for episode of
Rooseveltian “big stick” bullying.
Irritated by Colombia's reasonable request for better terms for what is to become
the Panama Canal, TR foments a fake revolution in the Panama region of
Colombia. As a show of intimidation, TR also orders battleships into the area.
The result is the newly formed puppet state of Panama. Colombia ends up being
screwed out of any lease payments for the Canal! (20)
1-Cartoon depicts TR’s militaristic bullying of Columbia.
2-The Yellow Press and modern court historians would have you believe that TR
single-handedly conceived and built the canal with his own two hands!
3-Cartoon mocks TR’s intrigues which broke up Columbia and created the
Panama puppet state.
