Venezuela: US fears spread of Chavez example
<http://www.greenleft.org.au/2007/713/37009>
VENEZUELA: Under the banner of “For freedom of speech and against
imperialism”, hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans took to the streets
of Caracas on June 2 in defence of their revolution, and as a direct
response to the domestic and international campaign being whipped up by
Washington in the wake of the non-renewal of Radio Caracas TV’s (RCTV)
broadcasting concession, dwarfing all of the opposition marches that had
occurred in preceding days. Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez announced:
“If the Venezuelan oligarchy believe that they will stop us with their
threats, with their manipulations or with their destabilisation plans,
forget it!”

Iraq: Stop Bush's killing spree!

IRAQ: There is little mystery behind Iraqis' tenacious resistance to US
President George Bush's war of occupation: over four years of war have
left the country devastated and resulted in the deaths of over half a
million Iraqis, according to a study published in the influential
British medical journal The Lancet.
