Imperial operatives of the Empire are circling over Venezuela in the hope of finding weaknesses on which to feed their ravenous appetites.
The author identifies key players and networks likely to try to destabilize Venezuela during this time of opportunity.

The fate of Venezuela ultimately lies with the Venezuelan people. As far as I can see, this very popular leader used his "Bolivarian Revolution" mostly to bolster his own party and influence while leaving the economy under the control of the same ruling class.

Now we will find out how strong the grass roots organizations are to resist the political assaults on their country that are sure to follow his death.
The fate of Venezuela lies in its people's hands. Covert destabilization must be faced by the Venezuelan people, while the alternative media must do its best to unravel the lies already being spun ahead of long-planned operations in "post-Chavez Venezuela."I also recommend Pepe Escobar's article on Chavez.
