US Cities Protest an Invasion Washington Has Been Planning for Decades
The idea of a US 'invasion' of a sovereign nation isn't new; it's a well-trodden path. In 2002, the George W. Bush administration actively supported a failed coup against Hugo Chávez, a fact conveniently omitted from mainstream narratives now focused on 'humanitarian' intervention. This isn't about 'democracy' today, it's about control over the world's largest proven oil reserves, a motive echoing
US interventions from Iran (1953) to Iraq (2003). While 65 cities march, Washington's think tanks, funded by defense contractors and oil interests, have been crafting narratives for regime change in Caracas for years. The bipartisan consensus on 'Venezuela's crisis' conveniently overlooks the crippling impact of US sanctions, which a 2019 report by the Center for Economic and Policy Research
(CEPR) found contributed to over 40,000 deaths between 2017 and 2018. When will the 'savior' narrative account for the suffering its own policies inflict?
