Drew this film on Chavez should have given a little better account of why the coup decided to cave in without further violence. And should have included him talking about what was said to him durring his captivity.

Also the CIA would have know to shut down channel 8 in such a way as it wouldnt operate.

Your comment immediately reminded me of Chris Marker's amazing saga about the CIA attack on Chile -- "the Battle of Chile" -- the film had to be SMUGGLED OUT OF FASCIST CHILE VIA A DIPLOMATIC POUCH:

Such are the constraints of documenting CIA coups a la 911.

Excellent points.

And I would add that one of the tactics used by the US and others is to use pop culture and media to create dissent within a nation whose leaders we do not like by inciting its youth primarily, against the established authority in those countries.

We complain bitterly about how "terrorists" are using the web for their activities, but in fact, our country uses it to cause problems for other leaders as well.

The internet is completely open in the US.

have you seen
dirtyphonebook.com... ? Random annonymous comments about anybody in the country is now possible.

Have you seen chatroulette.com... ? It's nothing but a cock free for all.

There are no censors in the US and thats how it should be.

Chavez is nothing more than a thug.

Sex is the easiest way to disempower the resistance -- hence the CIA in the 1960s promoting free love -- it's called Sex Blackmail -- Clinton, Gary Hart -- censorship? Not when you got the NSA.
