The independent, investigative journalist, Max Blumenthal has reported
extensively on the unfolding situation in Venezuelan at his news site The Grayzone Project.
He is now reporting from Caracas, the Venezuelan capital. Check out the recent video segment posted on his Twitter feed here.
Max’s headline reads:
“I’m at Simon de Bolívar square in Caracas where Venezuelans are lining up for blocks to sign a declaration denouncing US intervention and imperialism. One man waiting just told me: ‘Please put in your picture that we’re not invisible and not being paid.’
“…Lines stretch for blocks. Maybe some other western media is here but I haven’t seen them.”
I am grateful to intrepid reporters like Max and his co-workers who bring us the other side of this important story; the side that U.S. news outlets will never report; the side that our government wants to hide; the side which highlights American aggression in the pursuit of American greed and self-interest.
This is the side that the American church ought to be defending….there’s no two ways about it.
