Maduro’s mob assaulting the National Assembly session.

Notwithstanding the mob assault the National Assembly decided that Maduro perpetrated a coup and voted a resolution that: Requested intervention of international organizations, and that Maduro shall be impeached for violations of the constitution.

 

Chavez really made a mess out of a rich, rich country. But they voted for the jerk and now that the populist policies that persuaded the masses are dead, the man that took up the baton is now caught out holding the stick. Now he and the people will pay the price of the foolishness.
 
The Venezuela opposition should make aware that when the lefty government agree to dialog, what they want is to gain time and remain in power. Very rarely they willingly give up power. If the army give its support to the regime, it would be a bloodshed.
 
Carlos Eire said:-"Guillermo Fariñas is but one of many hunger strikers who have taken on the corrupt and abusive Castro regime.

It should come as no surprise to anyone that the Castro colony of Caracastan has also had its hunger strikers, and that some have taken their protest to the bitter end.

Here is one such hunger striker, who could be regarded as a victim of exported Castroism."

Maduro regime implements “food apartheid.” Like the Castroit regime did in Cuba, the Chavistas are doing it in Venezuela as a mean to control the people.


Shocking image show how prisoners are starving to death in Venezuela's jails.

This image look like the ones from the Nazi concentration camps. The Chavistas are deliberately starving the political dissidents that have been jailed, in order to let them died.
 
The food bag delivered once a month is a variation of the book rationing in Castrolandia. Like the book rationing, it is only enough to last one week. Welcome to Cubazuela.
 
Venezuela, a socialist country, cannot provide medical care of its own people. There are about 10,000 Cubans healthcare professionals in Venezuela, which sends the Castroit regime around 92,000 barrels of oil a day worth about US$3.2 billion a year in exchange for their services. Seems that the Cubans doctors cannot solve the medical care crisis. Many have fled to Colombia due to widespread shortages and social unrest in Venezuela.
 
Monthly wages for Cuban doctors on a foreign mission, at an estimated $100, represent just a fraction of what the Venezuelan government hands over to Cuba in return for its medical services. Cuban doctors complain about harsh working conditions and the poor state of the Venezuelan economy where food shortages and inflation have become a feature of everyday life.
 
According to U.S. prosecutors El Aissami was one of Chávez’s main liaisons with Hezbollah and that he supplied the terrorist organization with Venezuelan passports. The Venezuelan government has issued at least 173 passports to radical Islamists seeking to enter North America. El Aissami has been facilitating the entry of Iranian terrorists into Venezuela for a long time.
 
Fernando Menéndez, a researcher at the Center for a Safe Free Society (SFS) and Joseph Humire, Director of the SFS, associate Tareck El Aissami to a money laundering network used to cover up funding for extremist groups in the Middle East, and that for years he has been facilitating the entry of Iranian terrorists into Venezuela.
 
Tareck is the highest ranking official of being accused of drug trafficking, not the only one since other former ministers had also being accused. These accusations are from international anti- drug groups and other foreign governments supported by official documents.
 
Tareck, as Interior Minister, illegally gave Venezuela passports to members of Middle Eastern radical groups. It is very possible that Tareck could increase his political power in the incoming months. The Trump administration should considered to add Venezuelans to the new travel ban.
 
The Tear Gas and the Glory

As I rushed the dictatorship’s goons, surrounded by a swarm of fellow protesters, I suddenly realized: this is exhilarating.
Venezuela’s Supreme Court of Justice enacted a series of anti-democratic measures like invalidating the legislature and removing the immunity of the parliamentarians. It also transfer the right to legislate to the President, established de facto a dictatorship.

This sparked protests in the country and widespread international condemnation. This caused the Supreme Court to reverse its decision to strip congress of its legislative powers.
 
Maduro calling for a “constituent assembly” is a blatant effort to get rid of the last traces of democracy left in the country. The Castroit regimen is gearing towards converting Venezuela in another Cuba. If the regime succeed, the Venezuelans people is doom.
 
Some of the generals in the meeting advocated for the use of snipers to kill demonstrators, and some that doubt the Maduro regime will survive, and fear that they will be prosecuted for their actions, have reservation using sniper. One of the officer in the meeting was willing to take the risk of recording it and releasing it. This give hope that at one point the army could abandon Maduro regime.
 
The Venezuela government has morphed into a dictatorship. Since 1998, when Chavez was elected, food imports skyrocketed, agricultural production had collapsed and Venezuelan are starving. The embrace of socialism by the Chavistas has taken the country in a death spiral.
 
The Venezuelan people need to put an end to the Maduro regime. Peaceful demonstrations alone would not do the job. The regime has to be remove by force. The international community would only act after thousands of Venezuelan civilians are murdered by the Maduro regime in a civil war.
 
Maduro’s opposition leaders want to know why he went to Cuba. Well a number of Cubans dissidents know what is going on. He went to get his orders from the Castroit regime of what to do to prop up the political system and survive with the support of the military.
 
A coalition of human rights activists from different countries called on the U.N Human Rights Council to convene an urgent meeting to finally suspend the membership of Venezuela. He probably canceled the trip to Geneva because was afraid of been detained by a judge like the Pinochet case.
 
Venezuela population in rural areas is well equipped with arms. About 80% of Venezuelan opposed the Maduro regime, and if some faction of the armed forces support them, a popular rebellion could topple Maduro regime.
 
The companies still operating in Venezuela are at risk of losing everything, having their assets expropriated. Venezuela economy is a sinking ship with debt of $3.5 billion by the end of the year. The economic situation of Maduro regime continuous to go from bad to worse with thousands of employments disappearing due to the regime policies.
 
The country economy keeps deteriorating with an annual inflation rate of 1654%, the highest in the world. The regime was kick out of the Mercosur trade bloc which accelerate its economic meltdown. With unemployment rate over 21% and food scarcity, the country is ripe for a regime change.
 

It was only rich for a few people at the top. Maduro has been a terrible President, but Chavez made huge improvements to education, literacy rates, access to health care, etc.
 
In 2017 more than two million Venezuelan have left the country due to the deterioration of the quality of life. Maduro regime has caused massive inflation and political instability, and food and medicine shortages have worsened.

According to the National Council of Commerce and Services 60% of Venezuela businesses have closed during the last five years. It is criminal to see this happening to the Venezuelan people.
