RE: Venezuala : Where's the scarcity?
Unless you have bought into the Syrian White Helmet narrative, @drutter, you may be interested to know that it was Max Blumenthal (the journalist in this piece) who broke the truth about them while the neo-lib hollywood crowd were giving them Oscars for their propagandist documentary.
Anything that John Bolton and Elliot Abrams are supporting it's best to run the other way for the truth, in my opinion.
What do you base your opinions on? The Venezualians who mysteriously can afford internet access? The same ones, no doubt, shopping in the grocery store featured in the clip?
P.S.
... an invasion - on humanitarian grounds.
Yeah that has worked out well in Syria, Libia and Iraq. LOL!!!!
Wait, are you saying the tens of thousands of Venezuelan Steem accounts made in the past 6-8 months aren't legit?
Never heard of white helmets, Max Blumenthal, John Bolton, or Elliot Abrams. Not sure why you are bringing them up.
The issue is that Russia Today is passing off fake news by this vlogging dingdong as real, attempting to claim there's no need for humanitarian aid in the country.
And you buy it?

An essay on the crisis in Venezuela by Alfred de Zayas. an internarional law expert, who served as a secretary on the UN Human Rights Council:

You toss out that outdated partisan blog post like it has any bearing on our conversation. :/
As if the secretary of the UN's Human Rights Council, who had been tasked to do an on the ground 8 day fact finding tour on the Venezuela Crisis before submitting a report to the Council, has no bearing on this conversation. 👍😆
I guess it must have went over your head in the video where it said those who oppose the opposition are cashing in from the crisis by charging max prices on products coming in. Everyone is pretty much aware, and as the video states, there are relatively well off area's where people aren't starving. The people being provided for are the one's who support the current government the other fifty percent of the people are the one's suffering. This conflict though is internal and it should be left up to the people to figure it out.
