This fellow seems to have a poor grasp of the facts of certain things he discusses or is disregarding facts inconvenient to his position. This encompasses both historical facts and also current affairs. This partisan disregard for facts does a disservice to efforts to actually oppose the actions of a rogue regime.
How he manages to state with a straight face that pre-Columbian native peoples did not engage in war is beyond me; Cortez relied on native allies to defeat Moctezuma and Pizarro interrupted an Incan civil war. Aguirre further muddled further facts about other foreign wars, most egregiously trying to ascribe the American intervention in Libya to some exploitative motive (foreign intervention came as Qaddafi was about to massacre the rebels rather like Assad later did). One could ascribe these mistakes to lack of expertise.
More vitally, it is fascinating how he manages to cast all blame for Venezuelas dire straights on American meddling. We are guilty of much interference in Venezuela, but their economic collapse is due to mismanagement of their oil resources, naked corruption by the ruling Chavistas, and absurd populist policies that destroyed Venezuelas economy long before sanctions. His whole explanation ignores the organized gangster violence of the Maduro regime (7 million people didn’t flee just because of sanctions) and tries to paper over vicious, Assad-style political repression by talking about uniting the regime and opposition against the US. Two things can be true; Trump can be a vicious jackass, interested in flag-draped outbursts of imperialist, exploitative violence and Maduro can be a more brutal, corrupt, ruthless example of the same.
"Providence please help me; Jess, I've always deeply related with you; Now understand more clearly as to why; Your heart, brain and soul works similarly to mine. I am absolutely and completely fill - 'consumed' with white hot rage !!! This is no longer merely some 'academic' discussion. Where is our rage enough to defeat our inner self fears ? I am ready; I'll lead, take the first shots should they come... I no longer care ! Give me striking distance to these hateful, resentment filled posers destroying our nation of ideas and ideals. My muscle memory acutely knows every pain, pressure point, and mortal spot on the humanoid body.. I have had it !!! There is only one appropriate place for such sub-humans; End their and our misery. ENOUGH - TOO MUCH - I am there !!! "

Thanks for this helpful article. It is very difficult to ascertain truth but this gives me hope.
