US Shocked Venezuela Suspects CIA Meddling, Again
The Independent reports on Venezuela's claim of capturing a 'CIA-backed cell plotting false flag attack,' noting it comes as 'tensions with the US grow.' This phrasing suggests such accusations are new or unsubstantiated. Yet, from Operation PBSuccess in Guatemala (1954) to the Bay of Pigs in Cuba (1961), and multiple coup attempts in Venezuela itself, the CIA’s history of destabilization in Latin
America is not a conspiracy theory; it’s widely documented history. The 2002 coup attempt against Hugo Chávez, for instance, saw direct US support for the opposition, as detailed by multiple academic reports and declassified documents. So, when Maduro's government alleges another 'CIA-backed' plot, perhaps it's not a wild fantasy, but a pattern repeating itself. How many times does history have to
rhyme before the media stops presenting 'Venezeula claims' as if the idea of US interference is utterly outlandish? One might wonder if the US Embassy in Caracas has forgotten its own archives, or if history only counts when it serves the preferred narrative.
