Vltchek's article and photos provide an excellent antidote to all the hate-filled propaganda one gets in corporate media. The article follows the introduction by Patrice Greanville, the editor of The Greanville Post.
What I found was an impressive country. Under embargo, under constant threat of war and annihilation, yet proud, self-reliant, hard working but also fun loving.
People of this country can sing and dance, they can enjoy free time, but also produce rockets and automobiles, even communication tablets. I saw a lot of love and tenderness between the parents and their children, as well as between spouses. I saw cities being built for the people, not against them, as they are in turbo capitalist or feudal countries like Indonesia or Philippines.
