Anatomy of a Coup

Published on Mar 6, 2013
The astonishing story of how an American sponsored coup d'état almost led to the collapse of democracy in Venezuela. Featuring exclusive interviews with the key ringleaders and extraordinary archive footage - Chavez in jail arguing with his captors, secret meetings with the plotters and soldiers storming the presidential palace as plotters escape. As a fly on the wall documentary, you've never seen anything like it.



Definitely a must watch

3. Viva las Contra-Contras!

Hugo put the portrait of Bolivar back in a place of honor. It's hard to understand why there are some in the Americas pretending to be "progressives" who apparently hate him so much.

5. Make no mistake folks

This is the type of shit the CIA pulled off in Libya and trying in Syria right now. The only difference is that the CIA have improved on their methods. They come in, shoot civilians with snipers (always snipes) and use their control of the media to demonize said leader to force international action.

On a second note, if I was Chavez, I would have killed every single person involved in the coup and also killed every single judge that exonerated the coup leaders. You have to strong leader and show that you will deliver justice against treasonous actions against the country. For the love of God, they deliberately killed civilians.

When the fuck is a coup no longer a coup?

7. And it has been going on for a very long time.

And if anyone does not know, look up General Smedley Butler...

But no I think Chavez played it right...when you stoop to their level of moral decay you justify if for them.
