Editorial: LBJ inherits Panama mess from Roosevelt era
In a provocative critique, the piece argues Lyndon Johnson inherits a Panama issue rooted in Theodore Roosevelt era actions. It traces 1903 Panamanian revolt, U.S. backing, and the canal treaty’s perpetual control, linking flag disputes and riots to long-standing imperialist fallout. It notes Panamanian grievances over pay, discrimination, and concessions, plus Roberto Chiari’s break with the U.S. and rising Latin American nationalism.
