July 10, 20196 yr Quote The UN has accused Venezuela of a strategy of instilling fear in its population to retain power, removing opponents with a "shocking" number of alleged extrajudicial killings. Victims are arrested and shot, with crime scenes manipulated to suggest they resisted police, a report says. ... Some four million people have fled Venezuela since 2015, according to the UN ... ... The report is scheduled to be presented to the UN Human Rights Council on Friday. It is based on "558 interviews with victims and witnesses of human rights violations and the deteriorating economic situation" from January 2018 to May 2019. Its most damning findings relate to the number of deaths the Venezuelan government has ascribed to resisting arrest. That figure for last year was 5,287, with another 1,569 up to 19 May this year. ... On accusations of torture it says detainees have been subjected to "one or more forms of torture or cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, including electric shocks, suffocation with plastic bags, water boarding, beatings, sexual violence, water and food deprivation, stress positions and exposure to extreme temperatures". ... https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-48873500

May 5, 20205 yr 5 minutes ago, InkaUtexas said: Over written by a group of dumbasses. Still there, and there’s more word salad Quote When a crisis arises, the first thing people often look for is a leader: the person who knows how to solve the problem and will take the necessary steps to do so. Very few individuals are experts in handling crisis situations. Inexperienced leaders can make rash decisions, react too quickly to the situation, or worse, not react at all in hopes that the situation will work itself out. Nowadays, with the way information travels instantaneously, crisis situations typically do not “just work themselves out.” You need to intervene before the situation escalates. If you are looking for help managing a crisis, Silvercorp USA is highly experienced in handling the whole spectrum of crisis situations. Quote "THE STRONGEST PEOPLE ARE NOT THOSE WHO SHOW STRENGTH IN FRONT OF US BUT THOSE WHO WIN BATTLES WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT" JONATHAN HARNISCH All of that word salad kinda works against the tweet Because the first thing I look for in a crisis, is a leader who tweets the game plan out before it starts.
May 5, 20205 yr Been following this since they first announced the operation. Dipshits all of them. One note is the Agency told them to stop it, they said nope. Never piss of the agency. They are fucked. Going to cost us a few shekels to get them out. We shouldn't. Just glad the Prince was not involved.

May 6, 20205 yr Author Context: Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro says two American "mercenaries" have been apprehended after a failed coup attempt launched over the weekend. The US State Department Tuesday evening called Maduro's claim "a major disinformation campaign" that made it "difficult to separate facts from propaganda." The State Department was "making efforts to learn more," including the activities of the US citizens "reportedly in the custody of the former regime," according to a department spokesperson. https://www.cnn.com/2020/05/05/americas/venezuela-maduro-americans-failed-invasion-intl/index.html

On some level, he knows that he's going to be there in prison as long as Maduro wants him to. A photo from the arrest.
