Venezuela on the Edge of Civil War

We have the 2002 smoking gun that the Empire plotted and tried to carry out a coup d'etat. The Empire has a long record and modus operandi of covert coups and overt military invasions to overthrow governments, democratically elected or not. We do not need another smoking gun for proof.

The Trump Empire and corporate Fake News is further dumbing down the U.S. public. They are spreading lies, half-truths and cover-ups. Any inconvenient information that discredits the opposition goes unreported. For those that can see, they can see that the Empire is manufacturing consent for further aggression, including sending in the gunboats and Marines.

The Telegraph has the headline "US warns Venezuela that 'no option is off the table' if it goes ahead with vote for new assembly." Trump is quoted as saying, He is "very concerned about the well-being of the Venezuelan people, the incredible erosion of democracy right before our eyes." Maduro shot back, "The United States seems destined by providence to plague America with misery in the name of liberty". Bolivian President Evo Morales, who is also in the Empires crosshairs, said that Trump is "shameful". Actually, he has no shame.

Venezuela has been caught up in violent rioting backed by the right-wing wealthy class, and they have been responsible for most of the murdered and wounded, which the corporate Fake News ignores. Instead the corporate Fake News keeps repeating the numbers of those murdered as if all the deaths have been caused by the Venezuelan security forces, which is just not true. But when does the truth get in the way of the Empire's propaganda? It does not, and the corporate Fake News is the propaganda horn that makes sure that inconvenient truths do not get in the way of Empire wars.
