Anyone think the CIA/Bush Crime Family is NOT cheerleading Obamas saber-rattling at Venezuela?

You need to see this 72 minute documentary of the CIA/Bush Crime Family's 2002 coup attempt in Venezuela, and how it dramatically back-fired because THE PEOPLE of Venezuela literally rose up, by the 100s of thousands, surrounding the Presidential Palace, demanding that their democratically elected President Hugo Chavez be restored to power.

This is an excellent film in its own right, an award-winning documentary by a Dutch film crew who just happened to be already on the scene, as the coup unfolded, and were allowed to keep their cameras rolling through the entire incident, until Chavez was reinstated as President. An amazing historical piece of film work.

That "assessment" was bizarre (and telling). Does anyone actually believe it? newthinking Mar 2015 #2
As bizarre as having Cuba on the Terra State list. Mika Mar 2015 #3

I pretty much don't believe anything I read about how the President of Venezuela is responsible for the strife that they're going through. If our cia would get out of there and leave them alone they'd be just fine. Our rich want their oil that happens to be under Venezuelan soil and will kill any and everything that gets in the way of them getting to it.
