The Devil's Excrement





  The Devil's Excrement
Observations focused on the problems of an underdeveloped country, Venezuela, with some serendipity about the world (orchids, techs, science, investments, politics) at large. A famous Venezuelan, Juan Pablo Perez Alfonzo, referred to oil as the devil's excrement. For countries, easy wealth appears indeed to be the sure path to failure. Venezuela might be a clear example of that.

Primero Justicia has announced its decision to withdraw from the upcoming National Assembly elections next Sunday (Here isn their document). With this, all major parties except regional party Nuevo Tiempo have announced their deciswion to withdraw. The election now becomes another futile non-democratic exercize very much like that of Venezuela's twin counry Zimbabwe, run by Chavez' buddy Mugabe.

What now Hugo?

The letter below is a symbol of the failure if Chavez’ much ballyhooed “participatory: democracy, words that he tried to force into the final document at the Mar del Plata Summit but was unable too. This letter was sent before the march two weeks ago which was so sparsely populated by Chavez’ supporters. This despite this so called “invitation” to “obligatorily” participate in it. Those that still believe that Chavez is so popular should come down to earth with this. Despite money, letters like this and threats, people still did not go to this march. So, my dear fanatics, what is your explanation this time around? This is the text of the letter from the Mayor’s office:


To: Directors, Heads of Department and Coordinators of Committees

The purpose of this memo is to invite you, with obligatory character, to participate in the march that will take place on Nov. 11 2005 which will leave Plaza Morelos at 8:30 AM and will reach the corner of San Francisco. The motive is to show our solidarity with the presence of President Hugo Chavez in the Summit of the Americas in Mar de Plata, Argentina and against imperialism.

Note that all of the people thus invited were forced to sign as proof that they had seen this cordial invitation by the fascist Mayor of Caracas.

And while we worry about electoral issues, the riots in the city of Merida over the death of a student have now spilled over to Trujillo, where a student was shot dead and another injured in very violent demonstrations. Lots of pictures in the media like the one above, shwoing a burned truck in reaction to the news of the death of the student
