Leaked: USA’s Feb 2018 Plan For Coup In Venezuela

May 7, 2019 Eric Zuesse, Informationclearinghouse.info Educate! Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Latin America, Regime Change, US Imperialism, Venezuela

This document was personally signed by Admiral Kurt W. Tidd, who was the Commander (the chief), at SOUTHCOM, and he was thus the top U.S. military official handling Venezuela. But this was far more than just a military plan. It was comprehensive — directing military, diplomatic, and propaganda, policies — regarding the Trump Administration’s planned “Overthrow” of Venezuela’s Government. His plan has since guided the Administration’s entire operation, including “the capacities of the psychological war,” regarding Venezuela.

Failed Coup In Venezuela Intensifies Battle At Embassy

May 7, 2019 Staff, Blackallianceforpeace.com Resist! coup, Latin America, Regime Change, Venezuela

Yet a battle rages at the Venezuelan embassy in Washington, D.C., where activists living inside at the invitation of the Maduro government have been under siege. They have been assaulted by blaring bullhorns, sirens, strobe lights, and a violent opposition that has been drilling holes into the building and attempting to knock down the embassy door. The opposition also reared its racist, sexist, anti-LGBTQIA+ head, with its members spewing slurs at activists and journalists, and stalking a journalist. All this while the Secret Service and the Metropolitan Police Department have looked away and arrested more embassy activists than opposition members.

40,000 Dead Venezuelans Under US Sanctions: Corporate Media Turn A Blind Eye

May 6, 2019 Staff, Dissidentvoice.org Educate! Corporate Media, Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Latin America, Sanctions, US Imperialism, Venezuela

A new report on April 25 by a respected think tank has estimated that US sanctions imposed on Venezuela in August 2017 have caused around 40,000 deaths. This atrocity has been almost entirely blanked by the British ‘mainstream’ media, including BBC News. Additional sanctions imposed in January 2019 are likely to lead to tens of thousands of further deaths. The report was co-authored by Mark Weisbrot and Jeffrey Sachs for the US-based Center for Economic and Policy Research. CEPR was founded in 1999 ‘to promote democratic debate on the most important economic and social issues that affect people’s lives.’

Media Lies In Service Of War For Regime Change In Venezuela

May 6, 2019 Bill Van Auken, Wsws.org Educate! Inter-Imperialist Rivalry, Latin America, Regime Change, US Imperialism, Venezuela

Tuesday’s abortive coup attempt initiated by the US puppet and self-proclaimed “interim president” Juan Guaidó in Venezuela has served once again to expose the criminal role of the US corporate media. Guaidó’s video of himself and Leopoldo Lopez, the leader of Guaidó’s extreme right-wing CIA-funded party, Voluntad Popular, appearing with a few dozen armed men in uniform and calling for a military uprising, was greeted with undisguised glee by the major media outlets. This stunt was staged as the 100-day “reign” of Mr. Guaidó, existing only in the greedy imagination of US imperialism and Big Oil, appeared no closer to establishing control over Venezuela.

Cinco De Mayo Statement

From inside the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington, DC, 5 of May, 2019. As people from the United States, members of The Embassy Protection Collective have been fulfilling our trust as a temporary protectorate of the Embassy of Venezuela, located in Washington DC, for the past several weeks. We are holding strong despite being surrounded by hostile forces working with the United States Government and right-wing forces in Latin America to overthrow the duly-elected and internationally-recognized Venezuelan Government, ruin its economy, and steal its resources. On this Cinco de Mayo, an anti-imperialist anniversary, we stand in solidarity with Anti-Imperialist and Indigenous Struggles around the World.

Pence Tries to Dismiss Ilhan Omar on Venezuela, Fails Miserably

May 5, 2019 Staff, Telesur Resist! Michael Pence, Regime Change, Venezuela

Progressive United States lawmaker Ilhan Omar has called out U.S. Vice President Mike Pence's implict racism and sexism for seeking to dismiss her comments in support of the legitimate government of Venezuela without engaging her on the merits of the argument. Omar was quick to point out the arrogance behind Pence's dismissive remarks, saying; “Women of color have heard this before. Instead of 'we disagree,' it's 'she doesn't know what she's talking about.' They have to make us feel small. This from an Administration that thinks climate change is a Chinese hoax.”

Venezuela: A Dangerous Moment

May 5, 2019 Angel Guerra Cabrera, Resumen Educate! US Regime Change, Venezuela

The comic strip of a coup d’etat in Caracas on April 30 deflated itself with the sunset that same day. No military action was required against it. In fact, most of rebel soldiers who had been tricked to be there at daybreak, realizing they were being used for a coup, talked to their commanders and went back to their barracks by midday. The event should not be underestimated though, since it could have led to a confrontation among soldiers and a bloodshed if opposition soldiers attended massively to the place proposed by self-proclaimed president Juan Guaido. That was the objective that he had planned with Leopoldo Lopez -who was put under house arrest in July 2017 for inciting violence at the 2014 opposition protests and had just broken his house arrest-, both of them are members of Voluntad Popular party, well known due to its terrorist credentials. This just reaffirms not only a rejection to democracy but also the criminal nature, homicidal vocation, unscrupulousness in most of the Venezuelan opposition.

I Was Arrested For Sharing Bread

May 5, 2019 Ariel Gold, CODE PINK Resist! Embassy Protection Collective, US Regime Change, Venezuela

As part of the Embassy Protection Collective, I've been staying inside the Venezuelan Embassy in Washington D.C. to protect it from takeover by Trump's coup collaborators. On Thursday, I came out to replenish food supplies, but was arrested as I tried to get the bread, salad greens, and other food back inside. Right-wing pro-Guaidó/Trump supporters blocked the doors. Rather than helping me get food to people legally inside the embassy, the police arrested me. I am charged with "throwing missiles." I am not kidding. A U.S.-backed coup in Venezuela would only serve the interests of the U.S. and Venezuelan elite who stand to profit by taking over a country with the largest oil reserves in the world. We must prevent unnecessary bloodshed and suffering in Venezuela.

Standoff Escalates At Venezuela Embassy

May 4, 2019 John Zangas, DC Media Group. Resist! Embassy Protection Collective, US coup, US Imperialism, Venezuela

Washington DC Activists protecting the Venezuela Embassy from a takeover continue blocking pro-Guaido opposition from entering the building in Georgetown. As of Friday afternoon, activists were standing firm and still in control of the embassy. They are standing in for Venezuelan diplomats already forced to leave the U.S. and that has frustrated the pro-Guaido opposition while delaying Trump Administration efforts to build international consensus against Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro. There are still 20 activists in the embassy who have wittingly inserted themselves as a lynchpin in a broader international struggle over the future of Venezuela.

Venezuelan Military Putsch Defeated As Leopoldo Lopez Takes Refuge In Spanish Embassy

May 1, 2019 By Ricardo Vaz, Venezuelanalysis.com Resist! Latin America, Protests, Regime Change, Venezuela

Caracas, April 30, 2019 (venezuelanalysis.com) – “Interim President” Juan Guaido and right-wing opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez spearheaded an unsuccessful coup attempt in Caracas on Tuesday. The thwarted uprising started in the early morning hours when renegade military and intelligence officers reportedly released Lopez from house arrest. Lopez then joined Guaido and a handful of soldiers on the Altamira overpass in east Caracas, outside the Francisco de Miranda airbase, known as La Carlota.
