U.S. Turning into Latin America’s Backyard

"At the forum in Miami they discussed the strategy of «promoting democracy on the continent». Among the speakers were representatives of a number of Latin America NGOs which answer to the CIA. Their speeches on the «right to uprising» stood out. The key assertion of this topic is this: if a country has a tyrannical government, the people have a right to overthrow it. The speakers explicitly mentioned governments «undesirable» to the United States - in Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, etc."

How the West Manufactures “Opposition Movements”

"In Venezuela, the US sponsored an aborted coup, and it directly pays for hundreds of organizations, ‘NGO’s’ and media outlets, with the direct goal of overthrowing the revolutionary process and the government."

Thirty Years After the U.S. Invasion of Grenada, the First Neoliberal War

"Therefore it is with considerable nostalgia that I look back on this period, this before the Western left’s spinal cord had been surgically removed and its head compressed into its waist, forming a monstrous human starfish that reaches out in all directions (having little of its own). However, to end on a more productive note, the Latin American left has never been stronger, more dominant, and more unified..."

On the Eve of an Illegal Attack on Syria, Avaaz/350.org Board Members Beat the Drums of War

Today, "The Axis of Evil" psyops (still drilled into the Euro-American psych) has been coupled, if not superseded, with the manufacturing of fear. Add to this orchestrated fear, the "Humanitarian Intervention" and "Responsibility to Protect" doctrines. The crème de le crème of imperial rhetoric. Such doctrines, created by American "think-tanks", for the elite, by the elite, are of critical use for a declining and morally bankrupt empire. An empire that brilliantly attempts to convince and portray, utilizing the language within these doctrines, that the atrocities they manufacture, call for, and carry out, are somehow honourable and admirable – as opposed to what they actually are – crimes against humanity. Orwell would have called this psychopathic persistence, a stunning feat in doublespeak.

Statement of the Revolutionary Government: Farewell, Commander

"The work of Chávez emerges undefeated before our eyes. The achievements attained by the revolutionary people who saved him from the coup orchestrated on April of 2002, who have followed him without hesitations, are already irreversible."

BOLIVIA: “THIS IS A COP OF CLIMATE CHANGE NOT A COP OF CARBON TRADE”

" It's seems that developed countries are more interested in the carbon markets business that in the ultimate goal of this conference which is the structural solutions for this planet and future generations Carbon markets are just business for some but a bad solution for Mother Earth, facilitating developed countries not to make real domestic reductions."

End to USAID Spying Looms in Latin America

"In June 2012, foreign ministers of the ALBA bloc countries passed a resolution on USAID. It read: «Citing foreign aid planning and coordination as a pretext, USAID openly meddles in sovereign countries' domestic affairs, sponsoring NGOs and protest activities intended to destabilize legitimate governments which are unfavorable from Washington's perspective. ...In most ALBA countries, USAID operates via its extensive NGO networks, which it runs outside of the due legal framework, and also illicitly funds media and political groups."

FLASHBACK: Full Disclosure: Buying Venezuela’s Press with US Tax Dollars

"The revelations that the United States is funding journalism in Venezuela and elsewhere in the hemisphere come on the heels of a report released in May by the centre-right think tank FRIDE (fride.org), based in Madrid, which found that since 2002, the United States has funnelled an estimated $3 million to $6 million every year to 'small projects with political parties and NGOs' in Venezuela through an alphabet soup of shifting, intertwined channels."

FLASHBACK: Reporters Without Democracy

"Indeed, progressive activists’ seem to have become so fixated on critiquing their ideological opponents that they have neglected to watch the right-ward slide of their would-be-allies. This tactical lapse appears to have left democratic media organizations open to the insidious cooptive assaults waged by those intent on promoting a polyarchal public sphere."

FLASHBACK: Obama Continuing to Spend $20 Million on USAID Subversion in Cuba

June, 2011: "The U.S. administration’s obsession for programs costing $20 million to "promote democracy in Cuba" and which are a front for intelligence and destabilization activities, has come up against the decision taken by Senator John Kerry, head of the Senate Committee on Foreign Relations, to suspend funds for these programs on April 1."
