Brazilian coup: the Western mainstream media completely exposed again

failed evolution While in the case of Venezuela, the mouthpieces of the Western mainstream media are "shouting" constantly against Nicolas Maduro, they keep a completely neutral position (in the best case), concerning the constitutional coup against Dilma Rousseff in Brazil. Concerning Venezuela, the Western media mouthpieces are doing their job, which is propaganda as usual. The recipe is known. You present the half truth, with a big overdose of exaggeration. The establishment parrots are demonizing Socialism, but they won't ever tell you about the money that the US are spending, feeding the Right-Wing groups and opposition to proceed in provocative operations, in order to create instability. They won't tell you about the financial war conducted through the oil prices, manipulated by the Saudis, the close US ally. But the case of Brazil is even more interesting. The dirty war against Dilma Rousseff here is so obvious, that the Western media pundits

The election has been hacked: the dismal reality of having no real electoral choices

“ Free election of masters does not abolish the masters or the slaves.” ― Herbert Marcuse by John W. Whitehead The FBI is worried: foreign hackers have broken into two state election databases. The Department of Homeland Security is worried: the nation’s voting system needs greater protection against cyberattacks. I, on the other hand, am not overly worried: after all, the voting booths have already been hacked by a political elite comprised of Republicans and Democrats who are determined to retain power at all costs. The outcome is a foregone conclusion: the police state will win and “we the people” will lose. The damage has already been done. The DHS, which has offered to help “secure” the nation’s elections, has already helped to lock down the nation. Remember, the DHS is the agency that ushered in the domestic use of surveillance drones, expanded the reach of fusion centers, stockpiled an alarming amount of ammunition, urged A

Brazil’s Dilma Rousseff, a woman of honor, confronts senate of scoundrels

by Pepe Escobar Dilma Rousseff entered the Senate and calmly stared down her accusers. She left with her head held high after exhorting those Senators to vote with their conscience. Most of those politicians present probably had no idea what conscience means; they’re no more than corrupt messenger boys. But the Brazilian collective unconscious – Jung to the rescue – will be marked. President Dilma Rousseff, in a detailed, occasionally emotional speech, defended herself with honor and dignity from accusations she committed a “crime of responsibility”. She was not actually facing a political cesspool, but that ‘Angel of History’ so beloved by Walter Benjamin. History will judge her kindly. Meanwhile, it ain’t over till a dodgy politico sings. As I write, Rousseff is on the way to be stripped from the presidency of the world’s 8th largest economy by a bunch of scoundrel-cum-coward politicos. Her only fear, she said, was the “death of democracy”. Rousseff’s

Declaration of Cuba on the coup against Rousseff

The Revolutionary Government of the Republic of Cuba strongly rejects the parliamentary and judicial coup d’état perpetrated against President Dilma Rousseff The Government’s estrangement from the President, without presenting any evidence of corruption or crimes of responsibility against her, as well as from the Workers’ Party (PT) and other left-wing allied political forces, is an act of defiance against the sovereign will of the people who voted for her. The governments headed by Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva and Dilma Rousseff implemented a socio-economic model that made it possible for Brazil to take a step forward in areas such as production growth with social inclusion, the creation of jobs, the fight against poverty, the eradication of extreme poverty among more than 35 million Brazilians who used to live in inhumane conditions and income increase for another 40 million; the expansion of opportunities in the areas of education and health for the people, includi

O Μοράλες απέκρουσε το πραξικόπημα των συνεταιρισμών

Ο Πρόεδρος Έβο Μοράλες δήλωσε το Σάββατο 27/8 από την επαρχία Κοτσαμπάμπα ότι με την πρόσφατη λήξη μιας σύγκρουσης, που προκλήθηκε από τον συνεταιριστικό τομέα της εξόρυξης που προέβαλε κάποια αιτήματα με αποκλεισμούς δρόμων, η κυβέρνηση απέκρουσε ένα πραξικόπημα. “ Η Εθνική Κυβέρνηση απέκρουσε ένα πραξικόπημα. Εγώ είμαι πεπεισμένος και γνωρίζετε όλοι κάποιους ηγέτες”, δήλωσε σε συνέντευξη τύπου που πραγματοποιήθηκε στο Κυβερνείο της Κοτσαμπάμπα. Η σύγκρουση με τους συνεταιριστές (αυτοαπασχολούμενους) ανθρακωρύχους είχε σχέση, μεταξύ άλλων αιτημάτων, με την αντίθεση του κλάδου στην ψήφιση του Νόμου 149, ο οποίος εγγυάται την δημιουργία συνδικάτων σε αυτές τις (ιδιωτικές) μονάδες παροχής υπηρεσιών, καθώς και με την υπεράσπιση κάποιων συμβολαίων που υπογράφτηκαν με ιδιωτικές επιχειρήσεις. Σύμφωνα με τον Μοράλες, η κινητοποίηση των συνεταιριστών - ανθρακωρύχων ήταν μια πολιτική συνωμοσία για την ανατροπή της κυβέρνησης, γιατί υπάρχουν αποδείξεις ότι είχε σχε
