CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — At least seven explosions and low-flying aircraft were heard around 2 a.m. local time Saturday in Venezuela’s capital, Caracas. The government accused the United States of attacking civilian and military installations in multiple states.

Venezuela’s government, in the statement, called on its supporters to take to the streets.
“People to the streets!” the statement said. “The Bolivarian Government calls on all social and political forces in the country to activate mobilization plans and repudiate this imperialist attack.”
The statement added that President Nicolás Maduro had “ordered all national defense plans to be implemented” and declared “a state of external disturbance.” That state of emergency gives him the power to suspend people’s rights and expand the role of the armed forces.
The USA pretends to be a democracy, but in fact it is a criminal, pirate state, they steal what they want, kill whom they want. Fortunately, Trump’s coming to power marked the beginning of the collapse of that anti-human state. Americans of all political persuasions will continue to shout “thank you for your service” to every military person responsible for killing civilians and invading land belonging to others just for the opportunity to make money. Fuck USA.
Just about all governments pretend to be something they are not. And just about all of them are just tools for the wealthy. So fuck poloticians in general.
It is a democracy, you don’t get to redefine terms randomly.
It’s a Federal Presidential Republic
Not that the USA is in a great state in any way right now but this isn’t exactly true. Citizens often oppose what a country is doing. For reference just look at how veterans of the Vietnam war were treated. Bullied, harassed and treated like garbage. The reality is far more complicated. Still shit though
It’s a bit more than shit, shit is bribing FIFA to give you a peace prize. This is kidnapping a foreign leader and stealing a countries livelihood. It’s NOT just a bit shit this is full blown state authorized terrorism. America is basically Russia.
Vietnam was worse because the soldiers getting mistreated were often drafted. Not really fair to treat them so badly. And nowadays, for a lot of kids, the military is the only way off the streets and what not. They don’t sign up thinking they are going to do all these evil things. And many of them never have to. So I agree, much more complicated. And I would rather they be employed by the gov to help take care of people, instead of kill them.
