I saw a pretty interesting documentary about the political issues in Venezuela concerning Hugo Chavez and his opponents.
It made me wonder why I didn't know more about it.
To me, it seems as the truth hasn't been told about him - at least in "western" media.
Link to Alternet about the media issue.

What I ended up thinking after seeing the documentary was;
It seems logical that the US had something to do with the rise of the opposition. I'd like to hear from someone more into the issue.
(Google search with keywords "Hugo Chavez" and "CIA")

So what do you think? Just another attempt at an admin. -change in S.America by the US by proxy because of something as "typical" as oil and political reasons?
