The
U.S. government’s recent belligerent statements and actions
against the democratically elected government of Venezuela pose a
direct threat to working people in that country. Similarly aggressive
words and actions from the White House and U.S. Congress were used to
prepare the ground for previous U.S. interventions from Vietnam to
Iraq. On numerous occasions, millions of Venezuelans have mobilized to
defend themselves against efforts to destabilize and overthrow the
government of Hugo Chavez whom they overwhelmingly support. The U.S.
Hands Off Venezuela Campaign opposes all forms of intervention by the
U.S. government and its agencies in Venezuela and works to:
-
Educate
and raise awareness about events in Venezuela in order to counter the
bias of the mainstream media.
-
Build
solidarity between American and Venezuelan trade unionists and working
people in general.
We,
the undersigned say: “U.S., Hands Off Venezuela!”
