The 1954 coup d'etat that occuried in Guatemala, as Jacobo Armenz Guzman was elected democratically in Guatemela, but according to the United States Central Intelligence Agency the elected president Armenz was communist. According to the information Guatemala would become a communist country and “a beach from the Soviet in America” according to Allen Dulles. And as the United States could not accept to have a communist “neighbor” as Guatemala is bordered by Mexico, and is too close to the United States they decided to make a coup d'etat. Armenz started to make laws to impair the United States multinational United Fruit Company.
Then the 18th June of 1953 the United States started the plan to arm and train to take the country into a "Liberation Army" of about 400 rebels under the command of the exiled Guatemalan army officer Coronel Carlos Castillo Armas in co-ordination with a complex plot about taking documents of the PBHISTORY operation to prove Armenz a communist puppet.
