The US plan will surely fail by God's grace amen. They want to turn Venezuela to another Libya/Syria tongue

What is preventing this coup from gathering momentum is that the US is unable to Venezuelans or insiders for the job.

This is not so in Syria where the US was able to hide under the Muslim Brotherhood to fund the terrorists or that of Libya where they were able to arm Libyans to fight against Gaddafi.

We came, we saw and he died. If you know you know.

Despite what the American MSM claims about Venezuela being a socialist hell hole, they have free markets and far greater permissiveness towards finding ways to get by. And, they do have food.

In the U.S., if you find yourself homeless you cannot do anything about it such as selling candy bars or anything else on the street, you'll get busted. Not so in Venezuela (or any other latin American country). Things were definitely rough for a while in Venezuela a few months ago, but once they adjusted to the new "normal" everything opened back up and no one is starving.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qlX3yfXNX_g : The Grayzone's Max Blumenthal toured open air markets in Caracas full of food and supplies subsidized by the Venezuelan government, which debunk the "humanitarian crisis" lie spread by corporate media.

A very interesting post from an American who lived in Venezuela:

Venezuela is more American than America , I'll give a list , I've lived there for many years!

This is part of the reason they want to end Venezuela as it is.

Free elections

That's right foreign observers are not even the start of it, you can not vote if you are a not a citizen, in fact it's impossible, Unlike in the USA

You cannot get a job without being a citizen, that's right the jobs are only for their people. Not so in the USA

Mom and pop shops run everywhere, If you have a lime tree you have grandma sit in the driveway and sell limes all day, no health dept comes around and shuts you down because your not a Walmart.

Real hardware stores where employees actually know what they are talking about. If they saw how we barricade down entire isles in home depot so they can use the fork truck they would laugh their asses off.

Not a lawsuit culture. Not in the USA we love lawsuits that's why we are treated like little baby girls .

Drink and drive or speed at your own risk. Yes they don't preemptively give you tickets. You are responsible for yourself, if you run someone over while drunk you pay a heavy price. If your in a hurry you speed and use your horn and nobody gets offended. Traffic stopped? they think for them selves and make a line like army ants through the grass and keep moving.

Restaurants are not served by Sysco , you will often find waiters and waitresses from your favorite restaurants running a cart through the grocery store throwing everything from lettuce to fish into the cart . And then running the cart through the mall to get it to the chef in the restaurant. Not in the USA !

Things don't have to be labeled organic or non gmo, know why?? Cause everything is already organic and non gmo, thanks to Chavez. It in the USA you can assume quite the opposite.

Taxes are almost non existent, 3000 to 4000 sqft home property taxes are about 6 dollars a year! Not in the USA!

Gas is 1/10 of a penny for a gallon! That's right since it is their gas they get it damn near free. Not in the USA

You have a choice for healthcare, free or private pay. We used the free ones, we had a military hospital right around the corner to us, we brought our kids in a few times for stitches, they don't even ask your name, they tie the 4 year old down with a towel and stitch up the wounds and your out the door! Not in the USA

People say good morning and good afternoon religiously! Not in the USA!

You can tow a car down the highway with a motorcycle! Or drive a truck without and doors! Buying long rebar? won't fit in your car??just strap it to the axles and let it stick out five foot in front of your car and five foot behind while hanging underneath and sometimes scraping the ground. Not in the USA!

Electric bill for our house was never over 12 bucks a month! Not in the USA!

If a major company does not benefit the country, if they are not loyal they are shunned or kicked out. Their resources are for the benefit of the people period! Not in the USA

They have a more free form of capitalism without all the regulation! Not in the USA !

More then half the people carry around a copy of their constitution! Not in the USA !

The government is not controlled by a foreign gov. As the USA is told exactly what to do and how to act from Israel.

Venezuela does not kill their own with false flags!

Venezuela does not invade other countries to steal their resources!

Venezuela also has heavily armed local militias, they are there In case gov gets out of line!

I could keep going , this is what I can think of now.

THE YANKEE PLOT TO OVERTHROW NICOLÁS MADURO AND STEAL VENEZUELA’S OIL


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVQn_DdkYlU



Meteor in Venezuela
This is just to repeat and clarify a very important story.

On Saturday, a "meteor" hit Venezuela, was seen by the entire country and sparked a large fire in the middle of a populated area. It stayed bright all the way to the ground and flashed when it hit. Very suspiciously, this meteor did not make the news anywhere except briefly on Sputnik news and the Venezuelan media, which both posted video that was not from the meteor strike. Sputnik posted the recent Mexican meteor which went dark before it hit, and the Venezuelan media posted aerial pyrotechnic footage. Very odd.

However, people posted the actual footage of the meteor on Twitter and it perfectly matched what an incoming ballistic missile looks like. Ballistic missiles have re-entry like any other space launch and the warheads look like meteors coming in. What sets them apart from normal meteors is the angle of approach, their color, plus they stay bright until they hit and they flash when they hit, from the ordnance going off.

I expected the news to be dominated with a meteor that was enough to be seen for hundreds of miles and spark fires where it came down (when has that ever happened?) to dominate the news cycle, yet nothing happened. WHY? Why were fakes of the event used instead of the real footage, posted by witnesses, including of the fire where it hit? Short answer: Because if it was a missile, which it sure looked like, and a warning shot to Maduro, someone gave an order of silence and this will NOT be news. It will be interesting to see where Venezuela turns in the next few days.

Are those missiles not in turkey today? What has Russian done about that?

The US does not need to force a no flying zone in Syria. Theirs is to seek and destroy.

It is Russia that claimed to have delivered anti aircraft missiles to Assad and yet Israel is still raping that country like a bittch from the air.

you really have time for all these pro Russian guys,,for them Russian can do know wrong. US of A engageb in arms race to cripple the Russian economy.

Here is a perfect example of what happened to Venezuela
Venezuela was actually a fairly wealthy country up until a few years ago. Here's how they got wiped out:

Let's create a fictional town with a population of 10,000 in Montana, that is tucked away 150 miles East North East of Igbo lake, on the Canadian border somewhere and there are no other towns or gas stations within 200 miles (by road). Canada has no roads going down to that fictional town. This fictional town has it's entire income based in tar sand oil.

Some rich puke decides he wants the tar sand oil, because the deposit is amazing. He does not want people in the way of him taking it.

The town is supported by IGA grocers. It is not big enough for a Wal-Mart, so IGA does it all. There are no other providers of food, it all comes in via IGA.

For some reason, Shell Oil has all the gas stations in town. And the rich guy can influence Shell Oil strongly. He also has enough stock in IGA to have a say in what they do.

The entire town is fed by power and communications that come in over lines that are exclusively theirs for an entire 65 mile stretch.

Here's how "RICH DUDE" gets their tar sand oil (this is PRECISELY what happened to Venezuela)

First he creates a gas crisis by stopping all gasoline trucks to the town for a couple weeks. People don't panic, because they have power, and IGA still has food. They are annoyed, but not afraid because the town is small enough for everyone to walk to everything they need while they crack jokes about saving money and getting into shape. Rich guy waits until the last SUV is parked, waiting for gas. No one can leave town.

Then, rich dude cuts all shipments by IGA, because he can exert enough pressure on the supply chain to shut it down. Anyone who sees anything fishy with this is called an idiot or a conspiracy theorist because "no one would do that". There is no run on groceries (at first) because people were not told there would soon be none.

Right when people start figuring out there won't be more groceries, create an accident on the power and communications line (an avalanche will do) and cut their power and communications.

No one has gas to get out of town with and notify anyone of the emergency, no one can communicate because the line is gone, power is out, and food is running out.

Rich guy then shows up, blames the mayor for the problem, and offers "aid" and "help" in exchange for X, and then the tar sands are his. Everyone now works for rich guy, who "saved them" from the evil mayor, and "corrupt city government" that "caused the problem to begin with."

That's how it is done folks, Venezuela was doing OK until the international community screwed them over their oil, the EXACT SAME WAY.

You couldn't have said it better. Deception, creating false reality has been the hallmark of the empire chaos. Thank God the military didn't take side against the government. Venezuela will overcome this people.

Appleyard, good to see you again.

It's indeed sad that there exists a band of people intent in depriving the human race progress and development and self-determination.

Venezuela is under serious attack and it's only God Who can save His people from these rapacious vampires.

Someone from either American or Israeli DOD got into the PLC controllers on the twelve gigawatt hydroelectric Guri dam. They attacked the systems that regulated water flow through the valves on the dam that send the water to the turbines. This is precisely the type of attack Stuxnet is supposed to be made for. They opened the valves all the way. They (or whatever virus they planted, probably Stuxnet) then told the engineers, via the readouts, that the water flows and turbine speeds were normal. With an enormous amount of pressure from the dam, the turbines managed to push ahead of phase on the rest of Venezuela's grid, got into an enormous tug-of-war with power stations elsewhere (after viruses also turned the protection off) and blew everything up, tripping a nationwide blackout with long term severe damage.

We just got to see what Stuxnet could do to the world's third largest power plant. Several Venezuelans managed to tweet out that the turbines at Guri went over frequency, those tweets have now been expunged. Only willful sabotage could have done that.

It is virtually assured America did this, to a point where there is no plausible deniability especially after Pompeo's tweet: No food. No medicine. Now, no power. Next, no Maduro.

MY TRANSLATION: "WE CAME, WE SAW, HE DIED. HA HA HA HA HA. The world's largest proven oil reserves will now be OURS!!!

Most likely, trolls are going to say Venezuela's grid was crap. That's a lie, I looked into this, and it was in fact among the most modern grids in the world, RIPE for virus attacks, Guri is predominantly a 2010 dated facility after upgrades, that was initially put online in the late 80's (which by itself would not be old by power generating standards). There's nothing of significance in the U.S. that new and that updated. The stories about Venezuela having crap are bold faced lies fronted for propaganda.

The new troll approach is to acknowledge Venezuela had a great grid, but blame it's condition on Maduro for lack of maintenance. That's hogwash, even without maintenance that type of infrastructure will run 20 years without a hitch and it is only 9 years old. There's now way "lack of maintenance" could cause anything at all to go wrong that fast. It is common for such systems to run for 30 years with zero significant problems.

I re-traced steps looking for the tweets that said the generators went "off frequency" at Guri and can't find them anymore. There is censorship underway. If the generators did go off frequency, power will not be back up to all of venezuela any time soon. Such an event would likely permanently destroy anywhere from 30 - 50 percent of generating capacity in one whack. UPDATE: I just got all the stats. If the generators at Guri were over-spun on purpose to put them out of phase and blow other power facilities up elsewhere (plus at Guri, whoever wins the out of phase battle) the damage will amount to 40 percent of Venezuela's electrical capacity being wiped out for about five years. The types of generators Venezuela would have lost can't be replaced within a year, even without sanctions. My guess is that the news will now be continuously full of reports about how bad venezuela's electrical system is, all reports blaming Maduro.

If that happens, the following report is going to stand the test of time, if Venezuela now goes into continuous rolling blackouts that never stop, here is the reason:

Since people at Guri have stated that they had a runaway problem with the turbines, where they pushed ahead of phase and that's what triggered the blackout, a virus or other cyber attack is assumed. It is safe to assume this because once a power station is locked into the grid, it stays locked into the grid come hell (but not high water, ) - water, which in this case had enough pressure to force the generators to spin ahead of phase no matter what once the valves were simply totally open, controlling nothing. Once the generators were more than 20 degrees ahead of phase, everything would have absolutely no choice whatsoever to do anything but go kablooey. After that, pure destruction would commence. VENEZUELA WAS ATTACKED, this could not have happened any other way, case closed.

Let's see what the American bastards will do this time grin grin

This is what they have done:


Venezuela blackout update:
Some of the power is being restored. As I said earlier, it should be possible to get anywhere between 50 percent and 70 percent of it back after the type of attack the U.S. did, but there will be permanent, years long damage, and it will take at least a week before what is left after the attack can (mostly) come back on. LOW AND BEHOLD:

With perfect timing, massive Guiado demonstrations are happening with "Venezuelans angry with Maduro about the power outage". The problem is that what happened could not have possibly been the result of mis-management, poor maintenance, under-funding, or anything else, what happened is the equivalent of saying that just because someone did not do an oil change, the car got totaled by a semi. The facility at Guri dam was not the same type of scenario you'd have in a coal fired power plant, where if a virus opened the boiler valves there to over-spin the generators they'd quickly deplete the boilers and back off, Instead, Guri had over a thousand square miles of water reserve that would never run out pushing on the generators and when the virus opened the valves all the way, it was game over no matter what. One of two things would happen:

Either you keep the generators coupled to the grid to stop them from self destructing by being over spun, or you just let them go free, until they spin so fast they start throwing pieces. What happened at Guri was a really really filthy, rotten, evil "destroy a nation" attack, all launched by software from a hole in the ground where cowards sat, watched the numbers come in, and laughed at what they did. ALL BECAUSE VENEZUELA HAS AMAZING OIL RESERVES AND IS NOT PLAYING BALL WITH THE NWO

I'd like to mention something also - In reality, it does not matter if your political system is communist, socialist, fascist, or capitalist, What matters is if the people in charge of it all are corrupted bastards or not. As it turns out, the people running Venezuela as a socialist country were not corrupt, (at least not like Hillary and Pelosi) and Venezuela was actually a fairly decent place to live until they got screwed with by sanctions and foreign thieves who wanted their oil.

The big problem with systems that are not capitalist is the weaknesses of people, who after seeing such opportunity to start screwing everyone, subsequently do. It's pretty much universal, it always ends up happening over time. Venezuela was not there yet, it was all running fairly well until foreign tampering screwed the country up. So though I am no socialist, there are examples you can point to where the results are not some sort of apocalypse, and when Venezuela was being left alone, it was not. People were actually quite happy there.

Getting back to Guiado - What happens with him will be 100 percent dependent upon whether or not average Venezuelans figure out the U.S. is attacking their infrastructure via well known viruses and back doors that are so well published and admitted to they are comic book material. They'd have to be stupid to miss the obvious, and they are probably not that stupid. Even Press TV called out the U.S. for attacking Guri, and they are not my favorite. At least they don't lie on purpose, in this case the truth is so obvious not being a liar is all it takes. Pompeo's tweet probably helped them figure it out.

America was great for as long as it was capitalist. But after the Federal Reserve, and the income tax, and creeping socialism which has now been combined with abject fascism, where the fascists are taking over the financial, information, medical, education, and other areas the rule of law is gone and the information sector is simply not doing it's job of reporting anything accurately. I guess if America was actually attacked by Venezuela and the response against Guri was a counterattack it might be justified for the media to lie about it all, but in this case they are FILTH, aiding and abetting a criminal war mongering facist cabal that wants to go into Venezuela and post a bunch of trophy oil wells. And they used your tax dollars, fed to them via the skimming of a socialist tax system to pay for it all. Conquering Venezuela will be done on your dime and they'll then just squat on someone elses turf and rake in the cash.

We will have to wait and see where this goes. "wait and see" with a pretty good idea of where it is all headed, if they played this nasty against a facility that was one of the sparkling gems of the energy world - let me be clear about what Guri was -

Guri is a 12+ gigawatt hydroelectric dam. There are no nuclear reactors that generate significantly more than a gigawatt in the United States. There are very few facilities in the United States that generate much more than two gigawatts total. 12 gigawatts is a MONSTER facility of epic global significance. Guri was the third largest generating station in the entire world.

Furthermore, Guri was not a piece of crap. It went online in the late 80's, and got all new generators and hardware in 2010, under a socialist system. Far from being a disheveled piece of crap like the scamming American media claims, Guri was a STATE OF THE ART BUGATTI. The U.S. has ZERO generating facilities that are that modern, and none that are significantly over 20 percent of it's size, even if they are nuclear or coal powered. I am not talking the third largest hydroelectric dam, I am talking the third largest power station in the world, PERIOD. And some FASCIST A-holes after a few oil dollars, went into the facility via some hole in the ground in the U.S. or Israel, planted a virus from a "safe space" thousands of miles away, and blew the place up like a crack head with a crowbar, destroying a $2000 vending machine to score $50 in change. This one pisses me off.

All of the information about what happened at Guri came across Twitter right after the U.S. blew the place up. Numerous people at Guri tweeted out that they suddenly lost all ability to control the speed of the generators and that caused them to go out of phase with the rest of Venezuela's grid. Pure destruction would commence, no if's or buts and there's a kike laughing somewhere, BANK on it.

Now, right by the playbook, Guiado "supporters" are staging an enormous protest, AFTER power came back on (in earnest) and enough communications have been restored to turn America's spy apparatus back on. You can damn well bet that's what the timing of all of this indicates, if there were going to be REAL protests against Maduro they'd have happened when the lights were totally off, not when things are coming back on well enough to give the U.S. it's ears back!

Guaido also added the Caracas residences of Marrero and another opposition official Sergio Vergara had been raided before dawn.

Marrero sent a last-minute voice note as the agents were trying to enter his house, saying, “Look after the president”. The voice note was shared with reporters by Guaido’s press team.

Sergio Vergara posted a video on Twitter also confirming Marrero’s arrest.

It is likely that the arrest is a way to pressure the opposition, without directly arresting or taking action against Juan Guaido himself, who is under the US’ explicit protection.

On the previous day, Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro condemned the US and accused it of withholding $5 billion from Venezuela, which were meant to purchase supplies to produce medicines.

“A tremendous effort is made so that free and quality health reaches all the people, to be able to bypass all the aggression of Donald Trump’s government”, said President Maduro during an official act to relaunch the national pharmaceutical industry.

In terms of US economic pressure, on March 19th, the US Treasury Department sanctioned Venezuela’s state-run gold mining company Minerven, which is part of the Venezuelan Guayana Corporation (CVG) holding.

“The illegitimate Maduro regime is pillaging the wealth of Venezuela while imperiling indigenous people by encroaching on protected areas and causing deforestation and habitat loss. Maduro’s scheme to usurp the National Assembly’s authority and strip Venezuela of natural resources has exposed local communities to dangerous toxins,” said Treasury Secretary Steven T. Mnuchin. “Treasury is targeting gold processor Minerven and its President for propping up the inner circle of the corrupt Maduro regime. We will aggressively pursue those involved with Maduro’s reckless illicit gold trade which is contributing to this financial, humanitarian, and environmental crisis.”

On March 20th, the official response by the Venezuelan Government was posted on Twitter by Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza.

The Maduro government declared it was “grotesque to see two heads of state with such important international responsibilities justify war without any distension, in a flagrant violation of the U.N. Charter.”

Arreaza added that the Venezuelan government is concerned about the “U.S. warmongering influence over Brazil and the supremacist thesis of Donald Trump over Jair Bolsonaro.” The statement emphasized that Venezuela denounces once again the threats of military intervention before the international community. “No neofascist alliance will succeed in overcoming the independent and sovereign will of the Venezuelan people,” it concludes.

Furthermore, in response to Venezuelan opposition seizing diplomatic properties in the US, the Venezuelan government condemned the move.

Foreign Minister Jorge Arreaza denounced that the country’s diplomatic premises in the United States have been forcibly seized by Washington-backed agents.

“In a clear violation of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations, our diplomatic buildings have been seized”, said Arreaza in an official statement, adding that according to the 1961 Convention “Venezuela’s diplomatic assets in the U.S. can only be used by the official personnel that represent the democratic and constitutional government of President Nicolas Maduro.”

Meanwhile, on the US side, during a press conference with US Special Envoy for Venezuela Elliot Abrams “went on record to say the Venezuelan National Assembly passed a resolution that essentially goes against the country’s constitution. He says they voted for the 30-day term of the self-declared interim president, opposition lawmaker Juan Guaido, to start once President Nicolas Maduro steps down.”


All of these developments followed an announcement by Venezuelan Vice-President Delcy Rodriguez, according to which Maduro would undertake a deep government restructuring, to preserve the Venezuelan government.

“President @NicolasMaduro has asked the entire executive Cabinet to put their roles up for review in a deep restructuring of the methods and functions of the Bolivarian government, to protect the fatherland of Bolivar and Chavez from any threat.”

Whether that means he would also resign after the restructuring is unclear, but also unlikely.

Up To 100 Russian Troops Deployed In Venezuela: Full Report bellow

Another Cuba missile crisis loading, I wouldn't be surprise if there are Russian submarines inside the Venezuelan water ways by now just like it happened in Cuba, on the other hand Colombia has refused to allow the US use its territory for a possible military operation in Venezuela, this is getting interesting, Zuharel are you watching?

After Chavez fired the Oil/Gas employees in 2003, because they went on strike, he then invited multiple foreign oil/gas companies to invest billions in technology to extract oil (as it is difficult to drill in their oil deposits). So multiple American and 1 European company signed contracts with VZ.
In 2005 Chavez told these companies that we are renegotiating the contracts and if you don't like it I will take your companies assets and rigs. And he did exactly that, he stole all of their assets. Further Chavez/Maduro have illegally stolen every private company of any significance and the government has taken over all industries, you name it they stole it.

The country is so broke they can't even maintain their oil gas industry. 50% of the rigs are not even operational. BTW in case you didn't know the USA is the largest producer of oil and gas, recently took the #1 ranking from Russia. VZ does owe many American companies (and European as well) a lot of money, hell they owe Russia a lot of money. The socialist dream always ends the same way.

I hate it when people like you fail to reason beyond the lines. Even John Bolton admitted publicly that Venezuela's resources would be of great economic importance to the USA. undecided

Russia's Arms Deliveries to Venezuela Do Not Affect Balance of Forces in Region - Moscow


Deliveries of Russian military equipment to Venezuela do not destroy the balance of forces in the region, Russian Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov said.

"No deliveries of Russian military equipment to Venezuela have ever created changes in the balance of forces in the region," Ryabkov said in an interview with the Spanish newspaper El Pais.

The diplomat stressed that Russia always remains a responsible supplier of weaponry to Venezuela in the framework of bilateral military-technical cooperation.

A serious political crisis has rocked Venezuela in January when US-backed opposition leader and head of the National Assembly Juan Guaido proclaimed himself interim president in a bid to replace incumbent president, Nicolas Maduro.

The United States and its allies, including a number of EU nations, immediately recognised Guaido, while Russia, China, Cuba, Bolivia, Turkey among others voiced their support for Maduro as the country’s only legitimate president.

In April, the Russian Embassy in Venezuela said that Russian military specialists were in the country to train technicians and work on repair and maintenance of weapons systems, which were previously sent to Venezuela under bilateral defence industry cooperation agreements. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, in turn, said that the presence of Russian military experts in Venezuela was completely legitimate.
