The US and the Western media have been lying about Venezuelan
elections being rigged for over 25 years — to soften up public opinion for a military attack.
I was an election observer for the July 2024 presidentials and I went to both the opposition’s and Maduro’s final rallies in Caracas. The Western media covered the former (fifty thousand strong) but ignored the million who came out for Maduro. See pic - I was on the stand to the right of the stage.
This is a war for Venezuela’s oil and resources, and to dominate and colonise Latin America.
The US is resorting to war precisely because the Bolivarian Revolution is too popular to be defeated through sanctions and pop-up middle class ‘colour revolutions’.
Don’t be fooled by media manipulation.
