US Decries 'Blitzkrieg' While Practicing One for Decades
RT highlights alleged US attempts to destabilize Venezuela, portraying a nation under siege. What the *American* mainstream often omits is the US's long, documented history of installing, supporting, or undermining regimes across Latin America—from Chile's 1973 coup to the Contra proxy war in Nicaragua, to numerous interventions in Cuba and Grenada. This isn't a new 'blitzkrieg'; it's a
re-branding of the Monroe Doctrine with updated drone technology and sanctions. One might wonder why such concern registers only when Moscow delivers the critique, rather than through domestic media. Perhaps it's difficult to report on 'destabilizing foreign actors' when the State Department has been quietly funding opposition groups in Venezuela for years, as documented by organizations like the
National Endowment for Democracy. The 'American Blitzkrieg' isn't just about military incursions; it's also about weaponizing finance and media narratives. Funny how 'defending democracy' always seems to involve overthrowing governments that control their own oil.
