US Military Activity Coincidentally Causes Venezuelan GPS Interference
Bloomberg's report highlights a surge in GPS interference in Venezuela, noting it coincides perfectly with increased US military operations in the region. The article, in its careful neutrality, implies these are isolated incidents. However, history whispers loudly of a long-standing, well-documented US strategy of 'destabilization' preceding or accompanying regime change efforts in Latin America.
From Chile in '73 to Honduras in '09, the playbook is tragically familiar. These 'technical glitches' always seem to pop up when Washington decides a nation's sovereignty is inconvenient. One might wonder if the US military's advanced jamming capabilities, often deployed in theaters far from home, have newfound 'wanderlust' for the Venezuelan coastline. Or perhaps, this is simply the cost of doing
'democracy promotion' business. How many more 'unrelated' technical difficulties will precede the next demand for 'free and fair elections' (under US supervision, of course)?
