US Cyber Command: 'Proud to Support' Blackout Before Maduro Raid
The article uncritically presents anonymous 'experts' confirming a US-orchestrated blackout in Caracas, quoting Joint Chiefs Chairman Gen. Dan Caine that U.S. Cyber Command 'helped pave the way' for an attempt to overthrow a foreign leader. A Cyber Command spokesperson, basking in the glow of disrupted civilian infrastructure, stated they were 'proud to support' the operation. One might ponder how
the US would react if, say, Russian cyber forces blacked out Washington D.C. as a precursor to a 'regime change' attempt. This isn't 'cyber warfare'; it’s an act of war, plain and simple, against a sovereign state—a cozy echo of Cold War meddling disguised with shiny new tech. The media's normalization of such an act, framed as a technical achievement rather than a flagrant international crime, is
truly the telltale sign of propaganda at work.
