Venezuela and US interference.. Posted here Thursday, March 25, 2004 at 9:29:51 AM     That we do these little pety things, and not pay attention to the sytemic implications of american bad faith, appals me as a life loving conservative, from Saul Landau in Counterpunch http://www.counterpunch.org/ In recent speeches, Chavez quoted from documents acquired under the Freedom of Information Act that show US agencies funded the efforts of former coup makers. Chavez demanded that the US "get its hands off Venezuela." The documents he cited show that "Sumate," a group that directs the signature collection for Chavez' recall, received $53,400 from the congressionally funded National Endowment for Democracy (NED), whose mandate is to fund causes that strengthen democracy. ********
