Reply To: Venezuela
I cannot help but make comparisons with the media’s coverage of America’s aid to Venezuela and the attempts to break the Israeli blockade of Gaza, when it intercepted flotillas of aid ships (for full disclosure, I know one participant personally as she was a co-worker. She was on two of the attempts and who was arrested twice, three times if you include a West Bank arrest for monitoring Israeli anti-protest tactics), killing a number of the volunteers and also turning away a truck convoy by George Galloway at its land-border. While the US offers aid to Venezuela it is in a process of cutting aid to Gaza for political reasons.
It appears when the USA does it, then it is justified peaceful humanitarianism but when others do, it is a PR scheme by war-mongers.
