No Deployment Of US Troops Or Bases In The Caribbean

December 19, 2024 Organization For The Victory Of The People, Black Agenda Report. Resist! Caribbean, Military Intervention, Trinidad and Tobago, US Imperialism, US military, Venezuela

We, the undersigned organizations, strongly condemn the decision by Trinidad & Tobago’s Prime Minister, Keith Rowley, and the PNM Government, to allow the deployment of US troops on Trinidadian soil. This is a grave mistake. Trinidad & Tobago and Guyana have become pawns in the US Empire’s nefarious plan to militarize the Caribbean region under the auspices of the US Southern Command (SOUTHCOM). The US claims that this military cooperation is about enhancing regional security and dealing with issues such as the trafficking of persons, drugs and weapons, and to improve the military capability of these Caribbean countries.

This step deepens popular power and the creation of a new state, and which happily coincides with the commemoration of the 25th anniversary of the Constitution of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela.

December 12, 2024 Lorenzo Santiago, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! Gaza, History, Israel, Palestine, Palestine Solidarity, Venezuela

Leila Khaled is a historic activist for the liberation of the Palestinian people. At 80 years old, she continues to be active in promoting international collaboration with political organizations, popular movements and governments to denounce Israeli violence and broaden the struggle for the formation of the Palestinian state. Venezuela is one of the countries that echoes this struggle the most. The defense of the Palestinian people has been, since Hugo Chávez, one of the pillars of Venezuelan foreign policy. In the last week of November, Khaled was in Caracas to participate in the International Conference of Solidarity with Palestine.

December 11, 2024 Alan MacLeod, MintPress News. Educate! Donald Trump, Military Intervention, US Imperialism, Venezuela

The re-election of Donald Trump to the presidency of the United States has many in Venezuela extremely concerned. From assassinations, terror campaigns, sanctions and coups, the first Trump administration tried everything short of a full-scale invasion of the country. With a cabinet full of hawks, MintPress assesses the potential for a future U.S. intervention in Venezuela. According to insiders such as Defense Secretary Mark Esper and National Security Advisor John Bolton, Trump was one of the loudest voices in the White House pushing for military intervention in the Caribbean nation. The president said that it would be “cool” to invade, as the country was “really part of the United States.”

December 5, 2024 Misión Verdad, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Edmundo González, Maria Corina Machado, Regime Change, US Imperialism, Venezuela

The extremist sector of the Venezuelan opposition, represented by María Corina Machado and Edmundo González Urrutia, suffered a new setback both nationally and internationally on December 1, when a call to protest to demand “justice” before the International Criminal Court resulted in remarkably low participation. “Today, Sunday, December 1, we already have a first task to fulfill: Venezuelans are going to raise our unanimous clamor before the International Criminal Court, where we have already provided sufficient evidence for justice to be done,” Machado said on her social networks.

The president of Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, proposed the creation of a “powerful media network for the truth of the peoples across all continents, with all languages and on all existing social media of today and those that will be born as alternatives.” He made this proposal on Friday, November 29, at the International Conference in Solidarity with Palestine, held in Caracas. He commented that there is a consensus across the world for “the cause of the struggle for freedom and the right to life of the Palestinian people, and we must do more for Palestine, because still there are many people who are misinformed about the brutal genocide that is being broadcast live.”

The Geopolitical Dimensions Of The US BOLIVAR Act

November 30, 2024 Misión Verdad, Orinoco Tribune. Educate! Bolivar Act, Cuba, Latin America, Multipolar World, Sanctions, US Congress, US Imperialism, Venezuela

Awaiting approval by the US Senate, the bipartisan bill titled “Banning Operations and Leases with the Illegitimate Venezuelan Authoritarian Regime Act,” known by its forced acronym “BOLIVAR Act,” represents a milestone in the institutionalization of illegal sanctions against Venezuela. This law aims to—under a legislative and bipartisan framework—perpetuating the executive orders that have operated as the core of the economic and financial coercion policy against Venezuela over the past ten years. Within the law, the definition of the term “person” as a legal object establishes an expansion of the scope of sanctions, covering everything from individuals and private entities to governmental bodies and their extensions, thereby creating a vast catalog of potential targets on an international scale.

US-backed Venezuelan Opposition Never Tried To Win The Presidency

November 21, 2024 Roger D. Harris, Popular Resistance. Educate! Edmundo González, Elections, Nicolas Maduro, US Intervention, Venezuela

“On the campaign trail, she [María Corina Machado] was received almost as a religious figure, often wearing white, promising to restore democracy and reunite families torn apart by an economic crisis and mass migration. ‘María!’ her followers shouted, before falling into her arms,” the New York Times reverently reported. Indeed, Machado’s personally chosen surrogate to contend in last July’s Venezuelan presidential election, Edmundo González, did fall into her arms. But that was because her infirm disciple had trouble, both literally and figuratively, standing on his own two feet.

Function Of The ‘Compatible Left’ Seen In Attacks On Venezuelan Revolution

November 4, 2024 Stansfield Smith, Popular Resistance. Strategize! Anti-Imperialism, CIA, The Faux Left, Venezuela

“Compatible left” was a term used by the CIA to describe those on the left it has deemed compatible with maintaining imperialist world rule. This left has dominated the US left since the end of World War II, in large part a result of government operations repressing the communist or anti-imperialist left. Historically, this compatible left that the CIA worked to cultivate rejects actually existing socialism and formed a “third camp” or “plague on both houses” left between capitalist and socialist countries. Providing a “respectable” alternative to the anti-imperialists, it used its progressive flavor to lure in radical youth, activists, workers, and intellectuals.

Venezuela Calls For World Antifascist Parliamentary Forum

November 1, 2024 Nino Pagliccia, Orinoco Tribune. Strategize! Anti-fascism, NATO, Palestine, US Imperialism, Venezuela

Undoubtedly the major conflicts underway in the world today, more often than not, can be viewed as expressions of ideologies—long thought to have been left behind in history—like fascism, nazism and zionism where imperialism and colonialism remain the underlying rationalisation for warmongers. If the warmonger were to be equated to a painter one could imagine different shades of fascism, nazism and zionism as splashes of colours on a canvas of imperialism-colonialism. The problem is that warmongers do not produce art, at odds with the title of the 2500-years-old book The Art of War by Sun Tzu.
