The Saker – Maduro 1: Abrams 0: But This Match Is Far from Over…

Summary:
The Saker describes the evilness of the US/Anglo Empire. As the empire expands it becomes richer and corrupting people get easier. I often wondered why in vassal states the elites are treacherous and will give away their country's fortune to foreigners, a fortune they could have themselves. Well, the empire will find those that will run the country for them and then pay them handsomely. I believe Tony Blair is somebody who felt that he would do very well by going along with the system.The standoff between Venezuela and the AngloZionist Empire last week-end has clearly ended in what can only be called a total defeat for Elliott Abrams. While we will never know what was initially planned by the demented minds of the Neocons, what we do know is that nothing critical happened: no invasion,

The Saker describes the evilness of the US/Anglo Empire. As the empire expands it becomes richer and corrupting people get easier. I often wondered why in vassal states the elites are treacherous and will give away their country's fortune to foreigners, a fortune they could have themselves. Well, the empire will find those that will run the country for them and then pay them handsomely. I believe Tony Blair is somebody who felt that he would do very well by going along with the system.

The standoff between Venezuela and the AngloZionist Empire last week-end has clearly ended in what can only be called a total defeat for Elliott Abrams. While we will never know what was initially planned by the demented minds of the Neocons, what we do know is that nothing critical happened: no invasion, not even any major false flag operation. The most remarkable facet of the standoff is how little effect all the AngloZionist propaganda has had inside Venezuela. There were clashes, including some rather violent ones, across the border, but nothing much happened in the rest of the country. Furthermore, while a few senior officers and a few soldiers did commit treason and join forces with the enemy, the overwhelming majority of the Venezuelan military remained faithful to the Constitution. Finally, it appears that Maduro and his ministers were successful in devising a strategy combining roadblocks, a concert on the Venezuelan side, and the minimal but effective use of riot police to keep the border closed. Most remarkably, “unidentified snipers” did not appear to shoot at both sides (a favorite tactic of the Empire to justify its interventions). I give the credit for this to whatever Venezuelan (or allied) units were in charge of counter-sniper operations along the border.

At the end of the day, this is a typical dialectical problem: the more brutal and overt the US aggression against Latin America is, the more successful coups or even invasions the US organizes, the stronger the anti-Yankee feelings generated among the people of the continent. Think of it this way: the US has already terminally alienated the people of China, Russia and Iran, along with most of the Arab and Muslim world, and thanks to that alienation, the leaders of China, Russia and Iran have enjoyed the support of their people in their struggle against the AngloZionist Empire. Could something very similar not already be happening in Latin America?
