NB Commentary: While the world mourns the death of a celebrity, a whole lot of shaking is going on behind the scenes, or maybe I should say, a whole lot of shaking up is going on. Who would have thought that the US had a "trump" card in their back pocket. Hegemony and world dominion has not left the mindset of US Government and its hinchmen. I truly believe the US is an experiment in NWO implementation with its massive military might, its covert intelligence and its seedy infiltrators all set in place all over the globe. Hugo must be turning over in his grave.....
Washington is close to returning Venezuela to the control of the Spanish elite allied with Washington. The presidents of Ecuador and Bolivia are also targeted. One reason Washington will not permit its British lapdog to honor the asylum Ecuador granted to Julian Assange is that Washington expects to have its own agent back in as President of Ecuador, at which time Assange’s asylum will be repealed.
Having removed the reformist President of Argentina, Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner, Washington is now disposing of the reformist President of Brazil, Dilma
Rousseff. Washington used a federal judge to order Argentina to sacrifice its debt restructuring program in order to pay US vulture funds the full value of

President Kirchner resisted and, thus, she had to go. Washington concocted a story that Kirchner covered up an alleged Iranian bombing in Buenos Aires in 1994.
This implausible fantasy, for which there is no evidence of Iranian involvement, was fed to one of Washington’s agents in the state prosecutor’s office, and a dubious event of 22 years ago was used to clear Kirchner out of the way of the American looting of Argentina.

In Brazil, Washington has used corruption insinuations to get President Rousseff
impeached by the lower house. Evidence is not necessary, just
allegations. It is no different from “Iranian nukes,” Saddam Hussein’s
“weapons of mass destruction,” Assad’s “use of chemical weapons,” or in
Rousseff’s case merely insinuations. The Secretary General of the Organization
of American States, Luis Almagro, notes that Rousseff “hasn’t been accused of
anything.” The American-backed elites are simply using impeachment to remove a
president who they cannot defeat electorally.

In short, this is Washington’s move against the BRICS. Washington is moving
to put into political power a rightwing party that Washington controls in order
to terminate Brazil’s growing relationships with China and Russia.

The great irony is that the impeachment bill was presided over by the corrupt lower house speaker, Eduardo Cunha, who was recently discovered to have stashed millions of dollars in secret Swiss bank account perhaps his pay-off from Washington) and who lied under oath when he denied having foreign bank accounts. You can read the sordid story here.
Kirchner and Rousseff’s “crimes” are their efforts to have the governments of Argentina and Brazil represent the Argentine and Brazilian peoples rather than the elites and Wall Street. In Washington these are serious offenses as Washington uses the elites to control South American countries. Whenever Latin
Americans elect a government that represents them, Washington overthrows the
government or assassinates the president.

Washington has always blocked reform in Latin America. Latin American peoples will remain American serfs until they elect governments by such large majorities
that the governments can exile the traitorous elites, close the US embassies, and expel all US corporations. Every Latin American country that has an American presence has no future other than serfdom.
