We're all familiar with the tinderbox of the Middle East, where Russian oil interests are involved. But there are others, for instance--Venezuela's and Brazil's nervousness about the newly reconstituted US 4th Fleet, and Venezuela in particular worried about its oil rich northern province of Zulia, on the Caribbean. So, Venezuela has invited the Russians to naval maneuvers in the Caribbean, as a warning off, I figure. Venezuela, Brazil, Argentina and the rest of South America have formed UNASUR, the South American "Common Market," sans the U.S. It wouldn't do to have its northern flank (Zulia, and its rich oil fields) split off by a fascist instigated civil war (as the Bushwhacks just tried in Bolivia), supported by the 4th Fleet and mercenaries (and US special forces?) crossing the border from Colombia. It's interesting what happened in Bolivia, after President Morales threw out the US ambassador. The violence stopped, and UNASUR intervened and has achieved a compromise with the white separatists that the Bushwhacks were funding and stirring up. The country will vote on the new Bolivian Constitution in January.
Bolivia, however, is landlocked, and sells most of its gas to Brazil and Argentina. It is surrounded by leftist countries. Not so Zulia, Venezuela, sitting right there on the Caribbean, defendable, if grabbed by the U.S., adjacent to Colombia ($6 BILLION in Bushwhack military funding, run by narco-fascists) and with easy sea access to get the oil out. Must look like a "sitting duck" oil supply to Dick Cheney.
Then there is the long, intense psyops/disinformation campaign against Chavez that we have all been witness to. Chavez, the "dictator." Doesn't matter that it is 100% untrue. You know, Brazil's president, Lula da Silva recently said, of Chavez: "They can make up a lot of things to criticize Chavez, but not on democracy." That's the truth of the matter. Chavez is a democrat with a small d--more like FDR than anybody else I can think of. The rightwing fuckwads also called FDR a "dictator." Anyway, truth doesn't matter here any more. All is psyops, in every sphere. And psyops is the preliminary to war--whether a hot war to slaughter a million innocent people in Iraq to get their oil, or a financial 9/11 to loot the American people unto the 7th generation, or... to set-up sleepy inattention among our people here, while they go kill Chavez, take Venezuela's oil, and tumble the new, leftist-led South American "Common Market" into turmoil.
