The dirty role of US organizations in Venezuela

key points: “ According to NED’s 2013 annual report, the agency channeled more than $2.3 million to Venezuelan opposition groups and projects. Within that figure, $1,787,300 went directly to anti-government groups within Venezuela, while another $590,000 was distributed to regional organizations that work with and fund the Venezuelan opposition. More than $300,000 was directed towards efforts to develop a new generation of youth leaders to oppose Maduro’s government politically.” “ One of the groups funded by NED to specifically work with youth is FORMA, an organization led by Cesar BriceƱo and tied to Venezuelan banker Oscar Garcia Mendoza. Garcia Mendoza runs the Banco Venezolano de Credito, a Venezuelan bank that has served as the filter for the flow of dollars from NED and USAID to opposition groups in Venezuela, including Sumate, CEDICE, Sin Mordaza, Observatorio Venezolano de Prisiones and FORMA, amongst others.” “ Another significant part of NED fund

Ex-mainstream media journalist reveals: We knew that the plane flew to Italy to get money for the banks!

Maria Spyraki, ex-journalist for MEGA channel, one of the biggest tv channels in Greece, now candidate for the euro-elections with the main government coalition party Nea Dimokratia, revealed among other things: “ Greece had a bank-run in the period between the elections of May and June of 2012. This means that, in reality, people were going to the banks and taking their money. This was something that no one in my position could ever tell. No one could ever tell for example that there could be a moment where someone could go to a bank and say 'Good evening, I want ten thousand euro' and the bank would say to him 'I'm sorry, we have no money', because then, everything would end." “ There was a process which was very painful, it was the process of supplying cash to Greece. The plane was taking off from Elefsina, flying to Italy, and returning with cash for the Bank of Greece which was distributing them to the other banks. This was something that we n

A black anniversary: 28 years from the Chernobyl nuclear disaster

“ On April 26, 1986, a reactor at the plant, in the then Soviet Union, exploded and caught fire after a safety test went badly wrong. The blast sent radiation billowing across Europe. At first, authorities denied there was a problem. But tens of thousands of inhabitants were evacuated from Prypyat, the town closest to the site, never to return. A 30 km exclusion zone is still in place around the town. Local firefighters and other emergency workers went straight to the scene and in the ensuing days and weeks sought to bring the situation under control. Exposed to high levels of radiation, few of them are alive today. At least 30 people were killed immediately but some put the eventual death toll from radiation exposure at tens or even hundreds of thousands.” http://www.euronews.com/2014/04/26/remembering-the-chernobyl-nuclear-disaster-28-years-on/ ... and other nuclear accidents that remained secret for years: “ America’s worst accident at a

Forty years from the defeat of the dictatorship in Portugal

Forty years from the defeat of the fascist dictatorship by Salazar in Portugal. An almost non-blood movement by the Portuguese army which was started in the early hours on April 25th, 1974, and put an end to a brutal dictatorship of nearly half a century in Portugal. The movement went down in history by the name "Carnation Revolution", since thousands of Portuguese people in the streets were encouraging soldiers to unite with the revolutioners by putting a carnation in the barrels of their guns as an indication of peace and reconciliation. Today, Portugal, as well as the rest of the European south countries are under a peculiar neoliberal dictatorship imposed by a Europe which stands very far from its original principles and values to serve the big banks and corporations. The European neoliberal economic empire is imposing for the first time in history, the most brutal measures, not through a military dictatorship, but through an economic war and the
