    This is Sinn Fein we're talking about. They have a bit of a soft spot for Marxist dictators, or just dictators in general. Sure they thought Gaddafi was a great fella altogether.

    It really goes to show the cognitive dissonance that the lefty crowd suffer from when it comes to critically evaluating or critiquing those on the 'right side' of their cultish mentality.

    You'd think a party that has had it's members arrested and banned from speaking on television in a statelet run by Unionists that gerrymandered elections and denied the very basic principle of democracy, 'one man, one vote', that they would be at least prepared to condemn the blatant power grab that Maduro has perpetrated.

    Not so it seems. I think that when next we go to the ballot box voters need to bare that in mind. Do no vote for a party that, like Putin or the Muslim Brotherhood or Maduro, think that democracy is fine as a means to an end and only in so far as it delivers 'the right result'.
    No party with that ideology belongs within an asses roar of the levers of power.

    CIA Director Mike Pompeo claimed Venezuela is overrun with Iranians, Hezbollah, Cubans and Russians in response to questions about Donald Trump’s statements about US military intervention.
    I would believe this, Venezuela is a well known Shia stronghold as we all know! :D

    Interesting conversation between two populist muppets without an ounce of diplomacy between the pair of them.

    It will probably get leaked by Bannon, just like the Mexican and Aussie phone calls

    Massive pro-Government anti-Trump march yesterday morning in Venezuela. Not a peep in the so-called 'mainstream' (radical, war loving, propagandist) media.

    Qu'elle surprise!
    Ethnic Russians in eastern Ukraine who reject the illegal coup - don't exist.
    Millions of Syrians who are pro-Government - don't exist.
    Millions of Russians who are pro Putin - don't exist.
    Venezuelans who are pro-Government - don't exist.
    Millions of Americans who voted Trump - don't exist.

    Most likely a lot of them also think that Cuba has the best health system in the world.
