Declares It ‘Threat to National Security'; Seeks Regime-Change

Eric Zuesse

The Obama Administration, which in 2009 provided the crucial assistance that enabled the progressive democratic President of Honduras to be overthrown and a junta of oligarchs to replace him; and which in 2014 perpetrated a bloody coup that replaced the corrupt but democratically elected President Viktor Yanukovych to be replaced by a rabidly anti-Russian equally corrupt Government and thus sparked Ukraine’s civil war against the area of Ukraine that had voted 90% for Yanukovych; is now again trying to overthrow Venezuela’s democratically elected President, Nicolas Maduro.

Reuters on Monday March 9th headlined “U.S. Declares Venezuela a National Security Threat, Sanctions Top Officials,” and their report gives its closing word to an opposition politician, whom Obama supports and who says: “It’s not a problem with Venezuela or with Venezuelans; it’s a problem for the corrupt ones” (i.e., Maduro and his Government).

In other words, yet again, the idea Obama is pushing is: we’re just trying to replace a ‘corrupt’ elected head-of-state.

On 14 February 2015, President Maduro had thwarted a coup-attempt against him by the Governments of Canada and the UK. This followed almost exactly a year after he had already thwarted such an attempt by the U.S. Government. In December 2013, the Maduro Government presented detailed evidence that the U.S. was planning a coup against him.

1. To get an idea regarding the credibility of the

author of this 'article', you only need to examine this example (towards the end of this article):'

"On 14 February 2015, President Maduro had thwarted a coup-attempt against him by the Governments of Canada and the UK."

Poor, poor Maduro. He not only has to fight off coup attempts against him by the US, the CIA, the Colombians and the RW Oligarchy. Now he also has to defend himself against the Brits and the Canadians.
