Kenneth T. Tellis: "Some journalists have their own agendas"
VHeadline.com commentarist Kenneth T. Tellis writes: An attack on any embassy is considered an attack on the sovereign territory of the country the embassy represents. Now ... I wonder why what Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Frias said was so out of place. Some of these journalists have their own agenda and follow their paymasters, so why should anyone think that they have independent minds?
Now let's think a little more about our so-called "independent journalists"...
If Chavez is a well-meaning idiot as has been written he has only threatened to act, but when it comes to some nation belonging to the Anglosphere which not only threatens, but fabricates the evidence needed to promote their aggression, these independent journalist are nowhere to be seen.
Sure Chavez makes mistakes and says outrageous things at times, but he has never gone to extremes.
Unlike Chavez, very few in the Anglosphere dared condemn the greatest IDIOT on earth, one George W. Bush who lied to get Iraq's oilfields, if not by subterfuge, then by fabrication and naked aggression. Who then is the greater evil here? It's certainly is not Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias, but US President George W. Bush and his cronies, one of whom was British Prime Minister Anthony Linton Blair.
Hugo Rafael Chavez Frias has not killed two million people in Iraq, as US President George W. Bush did, neither has he used lame or fabricated excuses in order to steal another country's oil wealth, has he?
No one should ever forget that Honduras was a base for training and other illegal operations by the Reagan regime to infiltrate the Contras (terrorists) into Nicaragua and bring down its legally elected Sandinista government. But in that illegal process, thousands of Nicaraguans were murdered by the US-armed and trained Contras that crossed the border into Nicaragua from Honduras a US puppet state.
What is at issue here is that Senor Manuel Zelaya wanted to raise the living standards in his country and the elite along with the armed forces do not want any change to the status quo, because that would have an effect on their opulent life-style.
Thus the real issue is not that Honduran President Manuel Zelaya is a leftist, but that the changes he wants will make the life of the ordinary Honduran much better at a cost to the Elitists and the armed forces.
