Venezuela seems to be in the middle out a coup d'etat. The Supreme Court was just bombed by grenades thrown out of a helicpoter, as video footage will support. Maduro is claiming that the US is behind the coup.

It looks like former police and military have defected. A man claiming to be a former police officer in Venezuela named Oscar Perez calls on Venezuelans to support the opposition in a video released.
To be fair, this could be a false flag by the Maduro government just to give an excuse for crushing the opposition. But I think this looks real. In the coming days we will see who was really behind it.
This is a great example of what Socialism and Communism does. Way back in 1917, central banker Paul Warburg funded the Communists to overthrow the Russian Empire and he was successful. The Communists were unable to feed their people and millions starved in the Ukraine. Many resorted to cannibalism and other atrocities.
In Venezuela there are reports of people eating pets and animals from the zoo.

Communism and Socialism has always led to totalitarianism. Let us never forget that Communism was funded by major bankers, many of them Zionist Jews, as a way to divide Europe and profit from the resulting wars. It's no surprise that it also failed in Venezuela.
