Crisis in Venezuela

[NOVA Green]

You fail to comprehend that I never expressed any form of significant support for Maduro’s government.

And? That signature says solidarity with Venezuela against a US backed coup. That’s my position, obviously.

It is fascinating that once again we hear the War Drums pounding, with Southern Senators calling for the equivalent of War against a Government in America Latina....

Reality is that any US Military or Political Movements against the Government of Venezuela, will be regarding as once again American Imperialist intentions against a Socialist Government within the Hemisphere....

Although most US Citizens are brain dead and ignorant of history, the reality and collective memory in most of Central and South America, has a different perspective....

US Imperialism in Latin America in 2019 is a far cry from the "Gunboat Diplomacy" of the the late 1890s / early 1900s, let alone the era of Military Coups in the '50s/'60s/'70s that supported the rise of Fascist Governments into power in Central America, the Caribbean, and the Southern Cone.

The Political Left is a huge player now within the region, and although all politics are local any perception that the "Giant to the North" is once again attempting to control and manipulate political events within the region, will be met with massive demonstrations and militant confrontations in the streets and cities throughout the region....

If Trump attempts to mobilize US Military forces to overthrow the Government of Venezuela, it will not work out well....

Meanwhile, songs and ballads of Che Guevara will be hitting the tops of the charts from Mexico, to Central America, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, and beyond....

The Anti-Imperialist Movement will be marching in the Streets of every City in Europe, and even our Russian Comrades will be protesting in the streets against such a blatant  power grab.

Venezuela has some major issues, and honestly the US needs to sit on the back-burner, work with the OAS, and not try to get War Crazy, simply to divert attention from ongoing US-PRES Criminal investigations, because of a political situation in a Country "cursed and Gifted" by a Petro-Economy where political corruption and pocketing the national wealth from a Center-Right Government back in the early '90s caused a Socialist Military Coup.

Seems like this thread could - and should - be instrumental for intelligence services in knowing whom to watch closely...

This belongs in the Atlas in the Atlas Hilarious post thread, unless you are somehow concerned that Russian Intelligence will be sharing confidential info about Venezuelan Nationals facing deportation from European Nations or the United States where their Political Asylum status might be denied....

Let's face it, the resolution to the ongoing political crisis in Venezuela is a political and not a military issue, and it appears that Trump might be on the verge of engaging US Military Forces in Civil Conflict in Venezuela, as I speculated last Night.

I stand by my comments that any US Military Intervention in the Civil Conflict in Venezuela will spark major unrest throughout America Latina and beyond....

I know many US interventions were very inappropriate, but some others were justified. I'd never ever forget atrocities during the Yugoslavian wars.

Indeed, the extreme "anti-imperialist" left and the radical right are great partners. Antisemitism goes well with both.

Well certainly it is completely correct within the context of various European Anti-Imp formations in the 1970s, and fractional radical political formation within the US, generally associated with splinter Communist and Maoist Party formations, it really doesn't speak to the reality of the broader scale Anti-Interventionist and Anti-War Movements in the United States within the context of Latin America.

Reality is that the Anti-Vietnam War Movement was a broad based coalition focused on a specific US involvement that first triggered the equivalent of the "New Left" Anti-Imperialist Movement.

Anti-Semitism was not a major component of that Mass Movement....

The next major rise of the American Anti-War / Anti-Imperialist Movement occurred in the late '70s and '80s as part of the Central American Solidarity Movement.

Again, Anti-Semitism was not a component of that Mass Movement....

The next major surge of the American Anti-War Movement was in '90/'91 when Bush Senior deployed American Military Forces into the Middle East against the Iraqi Government.

Again, Anti-Semitism was not a component of that Mass Movement, which most on the Anti War Movement saw as a "War For Oil", and Israel was not a part of the equation....

Although, I certainly understand and respect your perspective, and as an individual with a Jewish Orthodox Sister and Six beautiful nieces and nephews, two of whom lived for Years in Israel, I suspect that you might be conflating the European Anti-Imperialist Movement with the American "Anti-War Movement"....

Many of us combat Anti-Semitism on a daily basis, but I suspect you are barking up the wrong tree when it comes to politics of Latin America....

Or it could just be, that I misread that your OP was referring to Yugoslavia....
