The Socialist Program with Brian Becker

Imperialism’s Non-Stop War Against Venezuela


Listen Later

In the latest Venezuelan election, the U.S. brought out its imperialist toolkit of lies and propaganda to try to overturn the democratically elected government of Nicolas Maduro. But so far it hasn’t worked, with hundreds of thousands mobilizing to defend the government and the military still intact. Brian is joined by Manolo De Los Santos, the executive director of The People’s Forum in New York, to discuss the tactics used in this hybrid war by U.S. imperialism against the country, which possesses the largest oil reserves in the world.
