August 30, 2024 Germán Van de Velde, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! Elections, Regime Change, US Intervention, Venezuela, Violence

The “comanditos” were part of an organizational strategy promoted by the Venezuelan far-right opposition leader, María Corina Machado. The fundamental purpose was to organize society into small groups that would serve as hotbeds of violence in different parts of the country. The organizational strategy revealed different stages. The first was the dissemination of the strategy using hegemonic media. These were in charge of disseminating manipulated information, explaining in detail the masked meaning of the strategy. According to the Diario Nacional, the “comanditos” were defined as a “crucial force for the success of the opposition’s strategy of motivating citizen participation in adverse conditions.”

Will Bangladesh Be Another Egypt?

August 26, 2024 Vijay Prashad, People's Dispatch. Educate! Bangladesh, Egypt, History, Regime Change, Sheikh Hasina

The day after former Bangladeshi Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina left Dhaka, I was on the phone with a friend who had spent some time on the streets that day. He told me about the atmosphere in Dhaka, how people with little previous political experience had joined in the large protests alongside the students—who seemed to be leading the agitation. I asked him about the political infrastructure of the students and about their political orientation. He said that the protests seemed well-organized and that the students had escalated their demands from an end to certain quotas for government jobs to an end to the government of Sheikh Hasina.

On August 9, as a part of an international call to action issued by ALBA Movimientos, the Simon Bolivar Institute, the Assembly of Caribbean Peoples, and the International Peoples’ Assembly to support Venezuela against US and mainstream media support for the attempted coup against President Nicolas Maduro, dozens of activists gathered in front of the New York Times building in New York City. The newspaper is notorious for backing undemocratic coups in Venezuela. Since the election of Maduro, the New York Times has joined the US government and right-wing governments across Latin America in openly questioning Venezuela’s verifiable election results.

Waker-Uz-Zaman promised that he will make sure that all persons responsible for the killing of protesters are held accountable for their acts.

Don’t Believe The Hype: Venezuela Is A Democracy

August 3, 2024 Ajamu Baraka and Margaret Kimberley, Black Agenda Report. Educate! Coup Attempt, Elections, Regime Change, US Intervention, Venezuela

What we saw unfold was the playbook that the US has, when it comes to events in this region and really around the world, that when there's an attempt to have internal democratic processes, where the possibility of forces that may not be in alignment with the US come into power, and there is an attempt on the part of the US and the Western European allies to undermine those processes. And that's exactly what has occurred here in this country. I think the world was forewarned that the possibility of violence erupting if the opposition didn't win, was something that had to be dealt with, and acknowledged. But even before we talk about that, I wanted to just briefly share with the people who are reading this interview, that the process will determine how people actually vote here in this country. On the day of the election, we had an opportunity to move around primarily around Caracas and right outside, to view the process of various voting spaces and voting precincts, and what we saw was the process in place.

Organization Of American States Interference Against Venezuela Fails

August 2, 2024 Victoria Torres, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Democracy, Elections, OAS, Regime Change, Venezuela

The Organization of American States (OAS) has failed in an interventionist attempt to try to approve a resolution targeting the sovereign presidential elections in Venezuela. The discredited regional body has been plagued by condemnations of mismanagement and ethical qualms in recent years against its secretary, Luis Almagro, as well as by its loss of credibility among regional countries regarding the body’s belligerence in recent regional crises, always protecting Washington interests or claims over regional sovereignty. By failing to obtain the necessary votes and consensus this Wednesday, July 31, the OAS was unable to pass its resolution against the Venezuelan electoral process.

UN Human Rights Council Supports US Regime Change Plans For Nicaragua

April 3, 2024 Alfred de Zayas and John Perry, Popular Resistance. Educate! Human Rights, NGOs, Nicaragua, Regime Change, United Nations, US coup

When the United Nations sets up a “commission of inquiry,” it can result in a powerful analysis of violations of human rights law, such as the one appointed in 2021 to examine Israel’s illegal occupation of Palestinian territories and its Apartheid practices. But other commissions can become political platforms aimed at demonizing a particular government by crafting narratives that give the semblance of objectivity, while suppressing all evidence that contradicts the prevailing geopolitical consensus. The ultimate aim of such commissions is not to investigate or to provide advice or technical assistance, but to support a campaign of destabilization.

Pakistan: PTI-Backed Candidates Emerge As Largest Bloc

February 13, 2024 People's Dispatch. Resist! Elections, Imran Khan, Pakistan, Regime Change

Independents backed by former Prime minister Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) party have emerged as the largest group in Pakistan’s National Assembly, after results for most of the seats were announced on Sunday, February 11. However, uncertainty looms since no party or group has got the majority of seats required to form a government. The results for some constituencies were put on hold due to stay orders issued by the courts after complaints filed by candidates claiming fraud. There are 336 seats in Pakistan’s National Assembly. However, elections were held only for 265 seats. In one seat, the process was postponed due to technical reasons.

Anti-Imperialism In The US Today: What It Is And Is Not

Fidel Castro, the world recognizes as a historic anti-imperialist figure, repeatedly warned that the main danger to humanity is US imperialism: “There is an enemy that can be called universal, an enemy whose attitude and whose actions…threaten the whole world, bully the whole world, that universal enemy is Yankee imperialism.” He fought to build a world united front against imperialism, of the world’s peoples and countries to oppose the barbarous actions of US imperialism. We see that anti-imperialist unity right now with United Nations votes and worldwide protests against the US-Israeli slaughters in Gaza, in what the New York Times in 2003 called “a second superpower.”

February 10, 2024 People's Dispatch. Educate! Elections, Imran Khan, Pakistan, Regime Change

As per the early results announced by the Election Commission of Pakistan (ECP) on Friday, January 9, candidates supported by jailed former prime minister Imran Khan’s Pakistan Tehreek e-Insaf (PTI) were leading in a large number of constituencies in the National Assembly. PTI claimed their candidates have won a majority of the seats and alleged ECP of attempting to rig the election after a delay in the publication of the final results. The final results were expected to be announced hours after the voting was over on Thursday evening. However, the final results were not declared even at 10 pm, Friday. So far results of only 220 seats were announced as per the local media reports.

The ‘Human Rights Industry’ And Nicaragua

February 8, 2024 John Perry, Resumen English. Educate! Alfred deZayas, Book Review, Human Rights, Nicaragua, Regime Change

Why do United Nations human rights bodies focus on some countries, but not others? Why do organizations like Human Rights Watch and Amnesty International appear to ignore important evidence presented to them? And why do the media repeat stories of human rights abuses without questioning their veracity? These issues and more are examined in one of 2023’s most remarkable books: The Human Rights Industry by Alfred de Zayas. It is remarkable for two reasons. One is that it brings together the insights of de Zayas and other experts into the ways in which “human rights” have been distorted to serve the interests of Western governments, principally those of the United States.

US Media Suppressed Government’s Role In Ousting Brazil’s Government

December 24, 2023 Brian Mier, Fairness and Accuracy in Reporting. Educate! Brazil, Media, Regime Change, US Imperialism

In a new peer-reviewed academic article in Latin American Perspectives (11/19/23), “Anticorruption and Imperialist Blind Spots: The Role of the United States in Brazil’s Long Coup,” Sean T. Mitchell, Rafael Ioris, Kathy Swart, Bryan Pitts and I prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the US Department of Justice was a key actor in what we call Brazil’s “long coup.” This was the period from 2014, beginning with the lead up to the illegitimate 2016 impeachment of Dilma Rousseff, to the November 2019 release of then-former, now-current President Lula da Silva from political imprisonment.

October 5, 2023 Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Bolivia, Diplomacy, Regime Change, US Imperialism

The newly appointed US chargé d’affaires in Bolivia, Debra Hevia, has been condemned by Bolivian political analysts and public opinion as an expert in subversive activities and destabilization, according to a report published by the local news outlet La Época. The publication—specialized in political analysis—noted that it is “very important to refer to the fact that she had a position in the Operations Center of the Department of State (DOS), which is characterized as a space for designing political destabilization strategies.” The article, written by Jacinto Roca, adds that the DOS is a working group dedicated to intelligence and special operations tasks, attached to the US State Department.vian political analysts and public opinion as an expert in subversive activities and destabilization, according to a report published by the local news outlet La Época. The publication—specialized in political analysis—noted that it is “very important to refer to the fact that she had a position in the Operations Center of the Department of State (DOS), which is characterized as a space for designing political destabilization strategies.”

Files Expose Syrian ‘Revolution’ As Western Regime Change Operation

September 27, 2023 Kit Klarenberg, MintPress News. Educate! Protests, Regime Change, Syria, US Imperialism

Throughout August and September, anti-government protests have rocked Syrian cities. While the crowds are typically small, numbering only a few hundred, they show little sign of abating. Demonstrators are motivated by increasingly unlivable economic conditions spurred by crippling U.S.-led international sanctions against Damascus. These have produced hyperinflation, mass food insecurity, and many daily hardships for the population. They also prevent vital humanitarian aid from entering the country. The media has given the unrest blanket coverage. No reference to Washington’s central role in imposing the misery under which average Syrians suffer today, let alone that several key figures in the protests are former opposition fighters who laid down their arms under a government-approved reconciliation deal in 2018, can be found in the reporting.

The Suwayda Protests: A Foreign-Backed Plot To Fragment Syria?

August 31, 2023 The Cradle. Educate! Regime Change, Syria, US Intervention, Wars and Militarism

Thirteen years after the onset of the war on Syria, a domestic political eruption backed by foreign states has resurfaced, threatening to once again ignite conflict in the country despite years of relative calm. Economic woes today underpin the public grievances expressed on the street. The much-heralded May 2023 reinstatement of Syria in the Arab League has thus far failed to deliver any significant political or economic relief for the beleaguered Levantine state. Instead, Syria's economy continues to deteriorate with the devaluation of the national currency against the dollar.
