The Chavez Code: Cracking US Intervention in Venezuela (Paperback)

Eva Golinger

 

BuzzFlash.com's Review (excerpt)

If you had any doubt that the U.S. was a player in the attempted coup

agains Hugo Chavez in 2002, this book will remove all doubt.

 

Why, because it is based on U.S. government documents pursued

primarily through FOIA by Eva Golinger, an attorney who is the author.

 

Forget whether or not you like Chavez as a person, just remember he

was democratically elected and reconfirmed as the leader of Venezuela

in a referendum. In short, he is the choice of the Venezuealan electorate.

 

The U.S. has a history of overthrowing democratically elected leaders

in Latin America and elsewhere if they represent the poor. Then they

are called leftists. It is always odd to us that someone like Obrador

in Mexico or Chavez in Venezuela is considered " leftist " for speaking

out on behalf of the majority of their populations.

 

It isn't just Bush. The U.S. has long defined democracy as meaning

U.S. style corporate leaders who play ball with the World Bank and and

International Monetary Fund.

 

In Venezuela, the Bush Administation wants the oligarcy to be returned

to power. The Busheviks are particularly concerned about having a

popular government that isn't run by the U.S. aligned wealthy elite in

power in Caracas because of Venezuela's vast oil reserves.

" Eva Golinger's book is the antidote to the Bush Administration's

poisonous propaganda about Hugo Chavez. She's got the facts, the

lawyer who's declassified the key U.S. documents that show Venezuela

as the victim of a subterrenean cold war against the new progressive

wave in Latin America....Golinger reveals the hidden story of how

millions of U.S. taxpayer dollars went down the sink-hole to back

opponents of the elected president. Well written, with solid evidence,

that is the political survival guide to the land of the next oil war. "
