RE: Venezuela Observatory - Just one uninformed American's digging
The economic warfare of the US against Venezuela has been incredibly effective, just as much as the PR and spin campaign in the mainstream media.
If you are looking for alternative sources, check out the Empire Files with Abby Martin, who has spent time on the ground in Caracus. An article here on TruthOut, and another from Mint Press News discussing the tactics of the (US backed) opposition.
Also check out Lee Camp's (Redacted Tonight) interview with Eva Gollinger
We need to remember the conditions of the US backed "Chicago School" regime, and what improvements did occur under Chavez, whilst understanding the reasons why the country is now on the brink
@cattledog thank you so much for all those sources!! I'm checking them all out. I really appreciate you sharing all this information with me and anyone else who may read this. I want to at least gain more of an understanding so I can be a small help in some way to make a difference.. I feel like so many Americans are misinformed or just uninterested - maybe with posts like this and sources being offered up people will start to do their own digging and wake up.
Thanks again for reading my blog and taking the time to make this awesome comment :-D
To get a broader perspective of the US actions in South and Central America, have a look at the John Pilger's 2007 documentary The War on Democracy
thank you!
