CIA assassins never rest. Chavez knew he was marked for death. He believed it. He said so numerous times.
Michel Chossudovsky asked if he was "the object of a targeted assassination by the Obama administration?""In this context, the CIA would receive orders to assassinate foreign leaders directly from the US President."
"There are secret lists of names as confirmed by US government sources."
"The orders carried out by the CIA to kill a foreign leader emanate from the US president."
Civil rights groups want answers. An FOIA request was filed.
The Partnership for Civil Justice Fund, ANSWER Coalition, and Liberation Newspaper want records and documents that "relate to or reference or discuss any information regarding or plans to poison or otherwise assassinate" Chavez.
They seek "(a)ll records and documents, including but not limited to, emails, letters, cables or other communications, memoranda, notes, minutes, photographs, audio recordings, video recordings, digital recordings, intelligence assessments, communications, records or other data that relate to or reference or discuss any information regarding or plans to poison or otherwise assassinate the President of Venezuela, Hugo Chavez, who has just died.""This request in made in light of the US government's acknowledged history of knowledge and possession of information regarding, and/or participation in, attempts to assassinate foreign leaders."
