Hugo Chavez Passed Out The Guns

[gzregorz]

But Alex Jones would have us think otherwise.

How is it that Americans have completely conditioned to hate Hugo Chavez?

How is it that Americans have completely conditioned to hate Hugo Chavez?

It's easy to condition people to hate things they do not know. But, Chavez is a friend to Castro, and that makes him easy to vilify. It's just as easy to make people love people they don't know; that is, until it's necessary to make them hate that same person. Noriega, Pinochet, Saddam, the list is too long.

this looks like it could be interesting.

How is it that Americans have completely conditioned to hate Hugo Chavez?

The big corporations hate his ass and have made it their mission to discredit him entirely.

When countries talk of being self sufficient meaning nationalization of their own resources, USA gets parannoid and that group paranoia coupled with corporate media can turn anyone against their own mother. Free trade was, is and never will be free! It was, is and always be propped by by the military industrial complex.

It looks like Oliver Stone's film is up on youtube too.

Pretty much covers exactly what we've been talking about. How the media can easily brainwash the US.

Despite one's politics, either for or against Chavez, I do think this is an interesting issue how a powerful country of over 300,000,000 can see a man who put an end to poverty in his country as one of the world's most evil men.

I love Alex Jones. If I were a woman, I’d appear on his show in my highest heels and shortest mini-skirt.

Journalistically, Jones has iron balls.

Alex Jones, Guns, Piers Morgan and My Penis – Part One: Alex Jones Versus Downton Abbey

But not Jones’ audience. “This is complex,” Jones told me, “so we’ll give you a full hour to explain it.” Which is part of the reason Alex is such a hero in the US – he has the cojones to venture where the mainstream media fear to tread.

[Michael]

I think Palast's take on Jones is accurate, including the fact that Jones does not shy away from controversial topics or fail to devote sufficient time to cover them adequately. Jones is vastly more informative in a one-hour interview than 100 hours of mainstream news.

Alex Jones, Guns, Piers Morgan and My Penis – Part Two: Weapon of Mass Distraction

So Alex Jones says don’t “cling” to your guns, get them ready. With our jobs and freedoms swindled and swiped, he says, only the weapon in our hand saves us from naked tyranny. (At least Alex doesn’t peddle the NRA baloney that assault weapons are for “sport”.)

Certainly, Hitler paused rather than take on the weaponised Swiss in the Alps. And in Venezuela, after a group of oil company executives and media barons literally kidnapped the President, an armed citizenry rose up and restored their elected leader. Oddly, Jones said that Chavez took away the public’s guns. In fact, Alex, Chavez handed out thousands of rifles to “well-organised militias”, which guarantee Venezuela’s democracy against another violent corporate coup d’état. (See my film: The Assassination of Hugo Chavez.)

But America isn’t Switzerland and it sure as hell isn’t Venezuela. Because here in the US, as in Europe, the war against economic aristocrats and autocrats has already been lost. The occupation of Main Street by Wall Street is complete.

After all, Alex, in 2000, it was you who brought to America my BBC report that George W Bush had stolen the presidential election. Yet, no one picked up a gun to fight Bush’s corporate junta when they ransacked our treasuries and erased our Bill of Rights. Instead, Americans took up arms to march, at Bush’s command, into Iraq.

And that’s why, in the end, they’re not going to kick in your door and take your guns. They don’t need them. You’ve already surrendered your jobs to Mexico, your Social Security to the finance sharks and your Bill of Rights to the War on Terror, all without firing a shot.

So they’ll let you keep your rifle, your toy, your little rattle. You’re no threat to these guys. They know it and you know it.

Unless...

We take heed of the words of John F Kennedy that, “Those who make peaceful revolution impossible, make violent revolution inevitable.”

Want to end the slaughter? Let’s not debate gun control.

Let’s talk about a revolution.

Hi Greg, Palast confirms what you said that Jones was wrong saying that Chavez took the guns, so there you go. Overall, a pretty good article, IMO.

Google Alex Jones and "race war."

[Michael]

That led me to an article on Infowars.com by Kurt Nimmo "Django: Race War Propaganda or Just Another Tarantino Bloodfest?", but not everyone's identical google searches get the same results. What did you get, or how's it strike you, or what do you think?

Afa what I think, the rhetoric is very familiar, real Turner Diaries stuff. It's also a much more familiar rationale for arming people. It is a much easier way to identify friend from foe, and makes "civil war" much more ... patriotic.

You were right a few years ago about racism and its connection between Ron Paul and stormfront supporting his campaign, although I couldn't see it at the time. I need to think about this a while.
