Australians need to realise that our 'free press' has just as much propaganda as orher countries. Venezuala is in a civil war provoked by the cashed up interests of global business trying to smash a 'socialist', to use a word, mentaility of the nation's people working together.

abc just a CIA disinformation service?

This is shameful reporting. Who started the 'border violence'? How is a declared US coup attempt just 'aid'? Huge majority of soldiers in Venezuela support the democratically elected govt. YOU journalists are war criminals. TheirABC

Should the CIA stooge Guaido and his white supremacists grab power, it will be the 68th overthrow of a sovereign government by the United States, most of them democracies. A fire sale of Venezuela's utilities and mineral wealth will surely follow, along with the theft of its oil.

Try telling the whole story for once in your life. pseudojournalism They support him because they're the wealthy elite, or descendants thereof, who were ousted and they think he'll let them go back to take up their privilege again. Disgusting people. It must’ve been really really tough for the left wing lynch mob to post this. Even the pathetic attempts at putting down realDonaldTrump don’t wash with reality.
