Venezuela's Political Disaster - June 2, 2007

Dear Journalists,

If any one wants some extra cash, free red t-shirts and red accessories, and do not mind to spend a day busing around should call Chavez's Mayors. There are witnesses reports that after the free red t-shirt wearing people were brought to Caracas to protest by Chavez, at the end of the day they had to go to the local Plaza where they were paid cash for their troubles. There are confirmed reports that the participants were mostly from the government's street cleaning crews,

Attached below please find link to the embarrassing reports including Chavez's using profanities in front of the sized networks:

http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/?p=5375

http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/?p=5385

Below please find pictures of Chavez's supporters on motorcycles some from allegedly the Mayor's office harassing students protestors:

http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/?p=5359

So how much is Chavez paying the motorcycle riders to wreck havoc?

In the meantime, reasonable and intelligent students who are protesting have made demands to infamous Chavez as indicated in the link below:

http://english.eluniversal.com/2007/06/01/en_pol_art_students-make-five-d_01A878311.shtml

Please read report written by Alexandra Beech concerning Chavez's profanities to the nation this evening:

http://maruangaritablog2.blogspot.com/

Please know that I revised yesterday's posting so please double check the report.

Venezuelans need HELP! Please remember that in protests from previous years no one helped Venezuelans and now they are hostages of a deranged dictator. Por ahora though!

Cordially,

Revised: Venezuela's Political Disaster - June 1, 2007

Dear Journalists,

Do you remember the 2004 pictures below when Chavez's thugs attacked unarmed and peaceful protestors in Caracas to scare gatherings?

http://urru.org/fotos/0_2004/20040816_NuevaMasacreAltamira.htm

There were three murders in the last few days of pro-and-con protest participants, including the one of a young female protestor. There are new reports that the two protestors were Chavez's supporters, and were machine gunned down when they arrived home, and the young protestor under similar circumstances, but different weapons as indicated in the two links below:

"Asesinados dirigentes que participaron en protesta contra Globovisión y Fedecámaras"
http://www.globovision.com/news.php?nid=57169

"Asesinada una joven estudiante de la UCAB por encargo"
http://www.globovision.com/news.php?nid=57141

So, were those murders a scare tactic or something else? Reports indicate that the murders were part of the weekend violence in Caracas, and seem unrelated to the fact that they were protesting.

This afternoon opposition students were denied a permit to march to deliver a document to government officials, and were harassed by Chavez's thugs on their way as reported in the next link:

http://www.globovision.com/news.php?nid=57217

Witnesses report t hat opposition student buses were denied entrance to Caracas; however, at the same time Chavez's supporters wearing free red t-shirts were arriving into the city by several bus loads. Please know that Chavez's allegedly pays his supporters to protest an equivalent of $60.00 a day. Of course, for $60.00 a day anyone with no scruples jumps on the buses. It has been confirmed that the protestors on red t-shirts were street cleaning crews from Chavez's administration and were paid to protest.

In the meantime, Chavez is sending his tin man diplomats to give absurd excuses about why the infamous deranged dictator did not renew Radio Caracas Television (RCTV) broadcast license. Never mind, the known facts as reported by http://www.freerctv.net/.

Venezuelans need HELP to restore basis human rights and democracy in Venezuela! All your cooperation will be greatly appreciated.

Please know that I will update my blog as needed, but may only send one e-mail daily.

Cordially,

Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 31, 2007

Dear Journalists,

I pray that all honorable world leaders are paying close attention to what infamous Chavez is doing to Venezuelan citizens. In addition to forbidding basic human rights like freedom of speech, Chavez seems to be harassing the opposition with odd jailings, and other abuses including threats to close what ever media thinks outside of his own deranged invented revolution.

Below please find link to report from Globovision explaining some of the abuses that took place yesterday including the death of a young student protestor:

http://www.globovision.com/news.php?nid=57139

http://www.rsf.org/article.php3?id_article=22363

There is a Venezuelan saying that everyone judges by their own condition. So, is that why Chavez calls everyone coupsters? Please remember that Chavez's attempted coups in 1989 through 1992.

Venezuelans are hostages of a deranged dictator who can not stand anyone opposing his totalitarian inept dominance. Venezuelans need HELP!

Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 30, 2007

Dear Journalists,

The citizens protesting in Venezuela are increasing in numbers. The link below is to article reporting the gathering that took place today in Caracas demanding the right to protest and freedom to the 182 students that Chavez has jailed in the last few days:

http://english.eluniversal.com/2007/05/30/en_pol_art_students-ask-ombudsm_30A877609.shtml

http://www.eluniversal.com/2007/05/30/rctv_ava_estudiantes-pidieron_30A877439.shtml

There are new reports that Chavez's police has placed Oscar Pérez in jail at Mariperez. Oscar Pérez is the head of the Comando Nacional de la Resistencia (CNR), and who came to Washington, DC to deliver 100,000 signatures to the Organization of American States last March:

Pictures: http://community.webshots.com/album/558327895SCVdbqFrom left to right: Oscar Perez, Helen Fernandez, Antonio Ledezma and Milos Alcalay.

Chavez is out-of-control as reported in the next link from The Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/30/AR2007053000426.html

Next please find link to videos showing Chavez's police in action against the unarmed students of all ages:

http://www.noticias24.com/actualidad/?p=5248

Below please find link to article "Consumatum est" written by Ambassador Adolfo Taylhardat spelling out Chavez as a coward:

http://opinion.eluniversal.com/2007/05/30/opi_685_art_consumatum-est_30A877169.shtml

Venezuelans will march again on Saturday, June 2 gathering at the Metro of Chacao starting at 10:00 AM.

Please know that Chavez's public relations office in Washington, DC "Venezuela's Information Office" is allegedly e-mailing his supporters in the United States to write to U.S. Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. It seems that Chavez may be allegedly paying big bucks for disinformation.

Dear Journalists,

I am very pleased to attach the link below with picture of a Catholic Nun protesting in Caracas asking for peace and freedom of speech as reported by www.elpais.com in Spain, and El Guardian Católico.

Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 29, 2007

Dear Journalists,

Attached below please find link to pictures taken by the Venezuelan students protesting Chavez's actions against freedom of speech.

What Chavez is blocking Venezuelan citizens to see:

http://www.resistenciaestudiantilve.blogspot.com/

Please know that Chavez's abuse is not a matter like not paying the rent as certain Chavez's supporters are saying. Reporters Without Borders who have been following the events say that Chavez's ending of Radio Caracas Television (RCTV)'s license is politically motivated:

http://english.eluniversal.com/2007/05/28/en_pol_art_reporters-without-bo_28A876239.shtml

Quotable

"No media are being closed in Venezuela. This is a lie. Tell the truth! The only thing we have here is non-renewal of a license." Minister of Communication and Information William Lara, adding that the Venezuelan government is to file lawsuits against any media treating the case of RCTV as closure instead of the end of a broadcast license

So, Minister Lara, is RCTV open so we all can watch TV as nothing had happened against it?

Venezuelans need all the help from international organizations to restore freedom of speech in the hostage nation! Please help!

I invite you to please read Alexandra Beech's report "Venezuela in Crisis" posted on my blog and my recent postings. Please know that I will update my blog as needed, but may only send one e-mail daily.

Venezuela in Crisis by Alexandra Beech

Dear Friends,

This is a really tough time for Venezuela. This afternoon, thousands of students are protesting the Chavez government's refusal to renew RCTV network's broadcast license. The measure attempts to silence one of the two remaining TV networks that doesn't support the Chavez government. According to venezuelatoday.net, " 10 of 12 TV signals with national coverage are controlled by the government comprising over 85% of the television spectrum in Venezuela. The government controls 36 television stations (directly or indirectly) and over 200 radio stations… "

In a speech today, President Chavez threatened to take measures against Globovision, the sole remaining TV network that doesn't broadcast Chavez-friendly news and information. ( http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6699383.stm)

The government's decision has been condemned by many organizations and governments around the world, including:

- Reporters Without Borders
http://www.rsf.org/article.php3?id_article=20218)

- Human Rights Watch
http://hrw.org/english/docs/2007/05/22/venezu15986.htm)

- The Committee to Protect Journalists
http://www.cpj.org/protests/07ltrs/americas/ven24may07pl.html

- The United States Senate http://www.venezuelatoday.net/sites/UBEVET1W/files/DAV07714_xml.pdf ) and the

- The European Union
http://www.cpj.org/protests/07ltrs/americas/ven24may07pl.html

Please stay tuned. If you speak Spanish, www.venezuelatoday.net is streaming live Globovision, and providing excellent coverage in English and Spanish of the crisis.

Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 28, 2007

Dear Journalists,

After a major peaceful protest that took place last night involving supporters of Radio Caracas Television (RCTV) including citizens of all ages who were restrained by Chavez's police, Chavez has declared that any media reporting the abuse that took place yesterday executing his whim as "closure" would be facing law suits as reported in the link below:

http://english.eluniversal.com/2007/05/27/en_pol_art_venezuelan-governmen_27A875779.shtml

Peaceful protesters defending freedom of speech will gather again today at 2:00 PM in Plaza Brion in Chacaito, Caracas.

Next please read report "Venezuelan TV Station Goes Off the Air" written by Associated Press Journalist Christopher Toothaker and published in The Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/28/AR2007052800161.html?hpid=moreheadlines

It seems that Chavez besides a deranged dictator is also a coward. As I understand, Chavez is surrounded by hundreds of Cuban bodyguards, no one can get close to his residence, nor to the places where he travels to. The people who usually appear on pictures standing next to him are allegedly on his payroll.

The European Union is expressing concern for RCTV's inability to broadcast as reported in the link below:

http://www.unionradio.com.ve/Noticias/Noticia.aspx?noticiaid=204428

Update 2: Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 27, 2007

Dear Journalists,

Venezuelans are protesting peacefully, but big time in Caracas in the area of Las Mercedes. Chavez's police threw tear gas, and other anti-riot tools as reported by Globovision earlier this evening. There are reports from witnesses that a protestor was severely beaten by the police:

http://www.globovision.com/news.php?nid=56837

There are new reports of police violence against the peaceful protesters demanding human rights:
http://www.unionradio.com.ve/Noticias/Noticia.aspx?noticiaid=204377

Antonio Ledezma, one of the opposition leaders, who delivered the 100,000 signatures in March to the Organization of American States is currently in intensive care at the hospital suffering a reaction from the tear gas.

The following links are to message from Marcel Granier, President and Chief Executive Officer of Radio Caracas Television given earlier this evening:

Venezuela's Political Disaster - May 27, 2007

Dear Journalists,

The tears are of anger and frustration of being unable to confront Chavez. Just picture a domestic violent, deranged, abuser and thug dictator destroying every thing you have loved, and allegedly giving ammunition to other thugs and thieves to attack and destroy properties as has been in the case of Radio Caracas Television (RCTV)'s and Globovision's headquarters. Please read report published in El Universal:

http://english.eluniversal.com/2007/05/26/en_pol_art_tsj-orders-rctv-to-h_26A874677.shtml

Below please find report "Venezuelans Protest Chavez's TV Move" written by Christopher Toothaker and published in The Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2007/05/26/AR2007052600798.html?tid=informbox

What is more upsetting are the world leaders who continue to do business with the infamous dictator. Venezuelans have historically been and peaceful and productive society living in a wonderful tropical environment.

If beloved Al Gore were to take a peek of the environmental destruction that infamous Chavez has been doing to the Venezuela's ecosystem in the last few years he would have ongoing nightmares.

The following link is from opinion article "Y tanto fue el cántaro..." written by Journalists Eleonora Bruzual commenting in the human rights abuse that is taking place in Venezuela:

http://www.eluniversal.com/2007/05/25/opi_1193_art_y-tanto-fue-el-canta_294580.shtml

Venezuelans are hostages of a deranged dictator and help from the civilized world is needed.
