When Nikki Haley called openly to overthrow the Palestinian Authority's President Mahmoud Abbas, a senior Palestinian official at the United Nations called her to "shut up." Well said. It is time that the world musters its guts and tell war-monger-criminals like Tillerson to shut up, when they call for military coups in counties they want to subjugate, like Venezuela and Cuba, the only true democracies in the western Hemisphere. The only true democracies -- these are not my words, though I fully subscribe to them -- those are the words of intellectual prominence, nobody less than Professor Noam Chomsky.
If anybody would care to understand what the sophisticated process of people's representation democracy in Venezuela involves, surely it would hit them that our one-person, one-vote western style democracy which is totally manipulatable, and is categorically being manipulated, is a long-past gimmick from fairytales. Similar articulate and clean processes are commanding Cuban elections.
The CIA in tandem with Mossad and other secret forces, plus NATO, recruit, train, fund and arm terrorist mercenaries to do Washington's dirty job. The Pentagon, CIA, State Department and NATO will not stop before "regime change" in Syria is achieved, and before Venezuela succumbs to the constant slander, blackmail, currency manipulations and myriad other pressures from outside; and before Russia and China are subdued -- unless this ever-weakening empire is stopped in its tracks. And it eventually will. But how many more people will have to die before the monster bites the dust and lets life and nature evolve and develop to bring equality and peace to the globe?
Let's call it out again -- the only country in the world that commits constant genocide and gets away with it, is the self-styled exceptional nation, the United States of America. We, the People, must -- and still can -- stop this.
