Backed loudly by Washington and supported by dozens of governments, the previously unknown Guaido burst onto the international scene in January. Following the bang of April’s failed coup, little fizz materialized, prompting Guaido to take up Maduro’s offer of talks aimed at solving the crisis.
WAR-PEDDLER Lindsey Graham—a little gift from South Carolina, the state that also kicked off the Civil War, is easily one of the vilest examples of humanity in a Congressional cesspool packed with them.
The White House’s bellicose rhetoric has cooled in the wake of the failed takeover but some hawks on Capitol Hill are still pushing for military action. Referencing former US President Ronald Reagan’s four-day invasion of the tiny Caribbean island of Grenada in 1983, Republican Senator Lindsey Graham said a similar action could be taken in Venezuela if Maduro and his military refuse to expel Cuban advisers.

“I think it would be a disaster in many ways,” said Kovalik. “If the US got sunk into another Vietnam-type war it would cause deaths of US personnel, it would cost trillions of dollars in treasury. It may cause rebellion within the US against the government.

Closing words
Like vampires fearing light, capitalists elites have always been afraid of the socialist demonstration effect. A huge and constant effort is aimed at "showing" that socialism doesn't work, that it is tyrannical, inefficient, etc. Thus sabotaging and killing socialism wherever it may arise —Russia, China, Korea, Venezuela, Chile—by any means necessary, no matter how brutal and dishonest, is therefore standing policy. But socialist solutions work. And Medicare for All would show everyone in America, the key capitalist fortress, that many of our nightmares can easily vanish under socialism. For the capitalists and their hanger-ons it would be a Pandora's box.—P. Greanville
