De staat
die het meest uitgeeft en verdient aan drugs is de VS, waar
organisaties als de DEA en de CIA naar believen drugs de VS inbrengen
om zo geheime operaties te kunnen bekostigen...... Je kan er
overigens gif op innemen dat dit soort organisaties ook zorgen voor
transporten richting Afrika en Europa..... Algemeen bekend ook dat m.n. Colombia het land is waar VS diensten als de CIA goede banden onderhouden met grote cocaïne producenten en de cocaïne vandaar onder controle laten doorvoeren naar de gewenste bestemming.....
CaitlinJohnstone heeft vandaag een artikel over deze
zaak gepubliceerd, waarin ook zij gehakt maakt van de laatste leugen die de VS
heeft gelanceerd om de democratisch gekozen president Maduro uit het
zadel te lichten....... (Maduro werd democratisch gekozen in door internationale waarnemers als eerlijk en goed verlopen beoordeelde verkiezingen!)
Johnstone
beschrijft o.a. dat de VS marineschepen heeft gestuurd die voor de
kust van Venezuela gaan 'patrouilleren', ofwel de VS dat Venezuela
illegale sancties heeft opgelegd, wat intussen aan meer dan 40.000
Venezolanen het leven heeft gekost, gaat nu zorgen dat er geen schip
meer kan aanleggen in Venezolaanse havens, alsof de VS daar alle
rechten toe heeft en niet ronduit misdadig bezig is en daarmee tevens een
gigantische massamoord heeft gepleegd.... Niet alleen dat, de VS gaat daar zelfs mee door in deze tijd van de Coronacrisis.....
Het
voorgaande geeft aan dat Nederland de VS alle steun zal geven bij
haar illegale acties, immers de VS mag gebruik maken van havens op de Antillen (met toestemming van de Nederlandse regering), 'leuk' ook dat wij daarover niets in de pers
horen..... Kortom ook Nederland is verantwoordelijk voor de doden die
in Venezuela vallen door VS sancties.....
Lees het
artikel van Johnstone en geeft het door; de hoogste tijd dat men
eindelijk gaat inzien dat Maduro terecht president is en dat alle
economische ellende in Venezuela is te danken aan de VS en haar
hielenlikkende NAVO-partners, waaronder Nederland.....
Over de
NAVO gesproken: deze terreurorganisatie heeft intussen 2 militaire
bases in Colombia en dat in de buurt van de Venezolaanse grens met
dat land, waar de VS als militair opperbevelhebber van deze
terreurorganisatie zelf ook nog eens militaire bases heeft in dat
land..... Ja ja, belachelijk genoeg heeft ook de gewelddadige neoliberale
regering van Colombia besloten zich aan te sluiten bij de NAVO,
iets dat 2 jaar geleden werd bekrachtigd.......
US Escalates Warmongering Against Venezuela Because Of… Drug Trafficking?
The
Trump administration is sending Navy ships to patrol Venezuela, the
latest escalation against the government targeted by an aggressive
hybrid US regime change intervention.
"President
Donald Trump announced Wednesday that Navy ships are being moved
toward Venezuela as his administration beefs up counter-narcotics
operations in the Caribbean following a U.S. drug indictment against
Nicolás Maduro," AP
reports in
an article packed
with pro-US disinformation.
“As
governments and nations focus on the coronavirus there is a growing
threat that cartels, criminals, terrorists and other malign actors
will try to exploit the situation for their own gain,” said Trump.
“We must not let that happen.”
“The
Venezuelan people continue to suffer tremendously due to Maduro and
his criminal control over the country, and drug traffickers are
seizing on this lawlessness,” added Defense Secretary Mark Esper.
How much dishonesty can you cram into a single report? @AP is going for the record. Let's count (see thread. Also, what on Earth is an "anti-drug ship"?)https://apnews.com/d4c51884ba3ac6a4311b6f548434f958 …
All
of this, of course, is bullshit. The US government does not care
about "the Venezuelan people" (a term
only ever invoked
to advance pro-regime change narratives); if they did they wouldn't
be murdering
them by the tens of thousands
using starvation sanctions and targeting
them with backdoor biowarfare
by cutting off their ability to protect themselves from a deadly
pandemic.
The
US government is also not interested in "drug traffickers".
As journalist Ben Norton notes,
"Even the US government's own data admit the vast, vast, vast
majority of drugs (mostly cocaine) coming from Latin America come
from Colombia — a right-wing US colony."
"70%
of the coca (used to create cocaine) grown in the whole world came
from Colombia in 2017
according to the UN," Norton adds. "Right-wing US colony
Colombia is the CIA's favorite drug dealer, used to fund death squads
and Contra terrorist wars to overthrow leftist governments."
As
Venezuela
Analysis rightly points
out,
in 2009 George W Bush awarded
the Presidential Medal of Freedom
to then-president of Colombia Álvaro Uribe Vélez, who was
previously listed
by US intelligence
as one of Colombia's leading narco-traffickers.
So
no, the US government does not care about drug trafficking, and it
does not care about the Venezuelan people. What the US government
cares about is securing control over the largest proven oil reserve
on planet Earth, which is
located beneath Venezuelan soil.
"Yeah we're super interested in getting rid of Maduro because his country's got so much... uhhh... drug trafficking."
It's
so precious how the US empire pretends that its transparent resource
control agendas are about protecting humanitarian interests. It
reminds me of the excuses the guys make when they get busted on To
Catch A Predator:
"No, Chris Hansen, honest! I just drove 300 miles because I
wanted to give the 13 year-old girl a talking to about the dangers of
flirting with strangers online." No you didn't America, you
drove 300 miles because you wanted to steal that little girl's oil
reserves you pervert.
The
Trump administration has already admitted that its sole interest is
in toppling the Venezuelan government with its ridiculous
offer
to cease murdering civilians via economic warfare if Maduro leaves
office; adding a bunch of unrelated gibberish about narco-trafficking
on top of this does nothing to obfuscate this. Warships have been
sent to Venezuela because the Trump administration is waging a deadly
war upon Venezuelans and that's what you do during a war. These
continued escalations are directed at nothing other than shoring up
more power and control for the globe-spanning US-centralized empire,
which works tirelessly to dominate the world by dominating its
resources.
I
don't know about you, but I certainly don't remember voting for a
paradigm where powerful governments pour the lion's share of riches
into sabotaging, toppling and destroying nations which don't bow
before their demands. This dynamic exists without the consent of
ordinary human beings, and it brings nothing but harm to ordinary
human beings. It harms human beings abroad with overt and covert
applications of deadly force, and it harms human beings at home by
robbing them of riches and resources for agendas which benefit them
in no way, shape or form.
In 2017 the military identified a novel influenza disease as "the most likely and significant threat" which it anticipated would lead to a shortage of ventilators, face masks and hospital beds, per Pentagon document leaked to me. They knew.https://www.thenation.com/article/politics/covid-military-shortage-pandemic/ …
All
these Venezuela shenanigans are occurring as revelations
emerge
that the Pentagon had predicted the exact sort of disruptions a
deadly coronavirus pandemic would cause way back in 2017. The
Nation's
Ken Klippenstein shows that the Department of Defense had warned that
unless changes were made an outbreak of a novel virus would see a
shortage of "ventilators, devices, personal protective equipment
such as face masks and gloves", which "will have a
significant impact on the availability of the global workforce."
Hey
America? If your Department of "Defense" is not being used
to defend the American citizenry from the deadly threats it
perceives, but is
being used to patrol the shores of an oil-rich nation that has
nothing to do with you, then maybe that department needs a new name.
And maybe you need a new kind of government. Just a thought.
