Great job, Max. Much respect. #HandsOffVenezuela The EU is absolutely reliant on expansion of European/NeoEuropean capital for the purpose of colonization. It's the same old story, of destroying the economy of any given targeted area of geography, by whatever means necessary.
As far as their journalism goes, they are true to their business plan only. Truth is but minimally involved to whatever extent it can be propagandized and bundled with lies to promote colonialization, or neo-colonialization, if you like. Another "if only" would be, "if only it weren't so devilishly effective", up to now.
The Real News doesn't let us drown in the sea of lies. Thank you so much for being there. It is a tragedy being played out by U.S. villains. It is terrible this media pile on being carried out by all sorts of U.S. clandestine operations. I and many of my friends are grateful there is a Real News.
Journalist Max Blumenthal, along with his men and women friends and associates around the world, meets the rarely-achieved standard of excellence in journalism - for the very simple reason they do what all the greats throughout history have done: Zero in on and report the 100% truth. Thank you to The Real News Network for providing such powerful truthful reporting.
Thank you Jay for having Max Blumenthal on to talk about Venezuela. Max is a solid Journalist and helps reveal the facts. I watch the Moderate Rebels to give me an Non-Corporate Establishment perspective on the news and to help filter out the Corp manufactured propaganda
Kudos to Max Blumenthal for keeping a small thread of real journalism alive. But might even the progressive media be missing the point? Certainly its exciting to see what the international banks and their bought and paid for governments in America and Europe are doing to undermine democracy in the world but shouldn't the point be that if true citizens in Venezuela and elsewhere banded together to defeat this campaign it could go al long way toward defeating the anti democratic imperialist movement itself? Shouldn't we remind ourselves of the international progressive intellectual movement to support the republicans in Spain in the 1930's? Surely we're not going to sit back and watch that happen all over again. As general Eisenhower forewarned, the military industrial (academic, media) complex may have such a strangle hold on our collective psyche that we are doomed. The only way to stop wars of anti constitutional democratic suppression may be to elect a chief executive who is committed to refusing to authorize them.
jeezuz christ, how can you separate the two crisis. I've investigated this reporters claims, and for everything he got right, he got just as much wrong. Regardless of the political games being played, the people of venezuela are suffering. Those that have any money can't afford enough food to eat and those that can are eating the same pasta, milk, cheeze when available, crackers and bread when available and a few other same foods. Some people are not able to get regular water. he is right, and he is way off base. the free so called food is often out dated and spoiled. Tons of food have been left to rot in warehouses! Caracas is NOT going to show you the truth. You have to move out to the towns and villages. talk to the people, the indigenous people. Elderly and babies are sick and dying from malnutrition and disease. Jeezuz i hate when reporters get stuck on the politics being played and screaming lies lies lies while the people suffer because no one thinks they are suffering. People don't walk for 4 days to leave their home and go to a foreign country to find work and food. Is it as bad as yemen? no, is it as bad as syria? no. but it is slowly turning that way and will go faster now that these shitty reports are being spewed as truth. If you have an economic crisis you automatically have a humanitarian crisis! jeezuz, when you can't by a variety of foods for nutrition you have a crisis. Makes me sick at how lazy the media is at finding their information. This crisis started before maduro came to power as well but no one reports that! do your homework and get the hell out of caracas and find the truth from the people, especially the indigenous people.
There is a REAL humanitarian crisis happening in Yemen caused by a US-supported ally. There is another humanitarian crisis being ignored in Rukban camp in al-Tanf, an area in Syria occupied by the US. In al-Tanf the US-supported militants are holding refugees against their will under terrible conditions in order to justify the US presence. Humanitarian crimes are happening in Yemen and al-Tanf's Rukban.
I'm Venezuelan,also, so so thankful to you,because you has been the trully voice of Venezuela in America. the Venezuelan doesn't speak inglish. However, there is to many interes in this.Careful, many people doesn't wants anybody knows this true. 🇻🇪😉👍💖
Excellent interview; very glad to have come across it! I definitely hope that the situation for Ven. will soon start to IMPROVE, for the country certainly needs this. The US and ally govts need to stay OUT of Ven. affairs.
To respond to one of Paul's questions- with Iraq, many of the Western European nations (especially France) had economic ties to Iraq that they didn't want to lose, so they opposed the Iraq War. Sanctions against Venezuela are so harsh they prevent such economic ties that would give those countries an incentive to oppose the regime change operation.
Thanks for the description .... but where may be the answers to all these problems? How is the U.N. reacting? Wat does Venezuela lead out of this crises ? It’s time for the answers ... What to do in the „non linear“ media to start a re-thinking ? A first step was, that Germany did not accepted the ambassador of Mr. Guaido as a state official. But this is just a small step .... where are all the answers to the rest of the problem. In my opinion it’s not enough to remain on status quo descriptions ...
Economic crisis can be solved in Venezuela if they allow countries like China and Russia establish a new model and keenly work through it. They ( Venezuela people) should not scared and early to make mistakes. Look at examples of :: Cuba, Iran, North Korea and above all Russia. Slow but sure in suffering.
This is total bull! He was there 3 weeks. Let him live here for awhile! I guess 3 million people who left there homes were mistaken? I'm an American citizen living in Venezuela, and even with my S.S. check, my son and I are having a difficult time making ends meet! Everyday I look out my window and see whole families eating from the garbage! Nuff said!
So disappointed that so many European countries fell for the US propaganda!
Not so much propaganda as imperlistic pressure.
Very unfortunate, unfair and sad
Great job, Max. Much respect.

The EU is absolutely reliant on expansion of European/NeoEuropean capital for the purpose of colonization. It's the same old story, of destroying the economy of any given targeted area of geography, by whatever means necessary.
The transnational corporations have more or less taken over the EU, too.
If only mainstream media had some integrity.

Amazing guy. Check out his podcast with another journalist called "moderate rebels".

Strong journalism here with Max Blumenthal and Paul Jay......
Corporate Media... Take Note: This is what journalism looks like.
Many are Colombians returning to their families in Colombia.
Tyt reports on this a lot differently just like mainstream media.

All eyes should be on Yemen!
TYT take notes
MAX, What about Putin bringing in Nuke planes???
Thanks for the description .... but where may be the answers to all these problems?
How is the U.N. reacting?
Wat does Venezuela lead out of this crises ?
It’s time for the answers ...

Let’s share this video so more people will know the truth.😃😃👍
IN GOD WE TRUST VENEZUELA AND PEOPLE AMEN.
US govt need to stop or facing war criminal charges. Very disappointed with US and Western govt.

You said your visa card worked?
Now Russia is sending troops & aid to V, China giving medical aid and Trump thinks it's a good idea to pick a fight with these two. lol
Since 1999 I have never been to a Citco. I tell all of my friends and family that socialized gas will ruin car.
