Festive Left Friday Blogging: Another satellite for Venezuela

February 10, 2012 — Sabina Becker

Looks like Simón Bolívar will have even more company in orbit. In addition to his Bolivian and Ecuadorian counterparts, he’s going to be joined by another Venezuelan satellite, named after another independence hero:

The new satellite, “Generalísimo Francisco de Miranda”, represents a great leap for the development of technological independence in Venezuela, said president Hugo Chávez.

During a meeting with engineers who will be traveling to China to prepare for the project of building the second Venezuelan satellite, the head of state added that this would also aid scientific, human and economic development in Venezuela.

“When we talk about science and technology, we are talking about an instrument of integral development for the country,” Chávez said.

The Popular Power Minister for Science, Technology and Innovation, Jorge Arreaza, said that VRSS-1, the new Earth-observation satellite, could enter orbit in September or October of this year.

In October 2008, the Venezuelan government launched its first satellite in the history of the country, Simón Bolívar, which serves in telephonic, information and Internet access among other things, above all in remote locations with low population density. It has also enabled the consolidation of social programs by the National Executive.

Translation mine.

Of course, the lamestream media are probably gonna paint this one as a spy satellite, too, and further evidence that those evil commie Venezuelans are in cahoots with those eviler, commier Chinese. I can only look at their uncritical coverage of Harpo’s latest trade mission over there and shake my head. And note in passing that we so-called freedom-loving North Americans have done absolutely nothing to help our Venezuelan counterparts develop technologically, and that our lovely corporate press really must learn to watch which side of its collective mouth it talks out of.

Festive Left Friday Blogging: Two million and counting!

January 27, 2012 — Sabina Becker

Ahem. Make that two and a HALF million…

And now, the story from Aporrea:

At 10:06 this morning, and three months shy of his second anniversary on Twitter, President Hugo Chávez made history as the most-followed head of state on the social network, with two and a half million followers.

1394 tweets, following 21 tweeters, and found on 55,400 lists, @chavezcandanga exceeded all expectations. We can emphasize that he has more followers than @Facebook, which was created on December 7, 2009.

Here is a list of the most-followed heads of state in Latin America, as of 10:21 am:

1. @chavezcandanga (Venezuela): 2,500,038
2. @FelipeCalderon (Mexico): 1,392,980
3. @DilmaBr (Brazil): 1,044,256
4. @CFKArgentina (Argentina): 830,906
5. @SebastianPinera (Chile): 677,821
6. @JuanManSantos (Colombia): 677,294
7. @MashiRafael (Ecuador): 207,911
8. @Laura_Ch (Costa Rica): 86,812

No doubt about it, this is one more demonstration that the Bolivarian Revolution is consolidating itself in all spaces, considering that @chavezcandanga is one of the best communicators in history.

Translation mine; linkage as in original.

If the Internet is the marketplace of ideas, then it looks like a leading anticapitalist is the top seller. Outpacing even Facebook on the tweeter — how about that?

And if you think it’s just a tweetish fluke, I can assure you it’s not. His messages also appear on Facebook, and get huge numbers of “likes” in no time at all. The only one who gets “liked” faster is Cristina Fernández (a.k.a. CFKArgentina), mainly because she uses Facebook more she does Twitter. Which she does almost as much as Chavecito.

But then again, Chavecito has only to get on Facebook himself (he doesn’t seem to have a personal profile there yet, only a generic “politician” page and a whole slew of fan pages), instead of simply linking it to his Twitter account. The day he does is the day Facebook’s entire server farm crashes from all the happy Bolivarian traffic welcoming him aboard the Internet’s biggest time-suck.

Watch out, Fuckerberg!

Keystone XL: Dirty oil barons threaten Obama

January 9, 2012 — Sabina Becker

The clearest, most concise explanation yet of why the Keystone XL pipeline project, which would ferry dirty tar-sands oil from Alberta to Texas, must not proceed. Yes, all this talk of “ending our dependence on foreign oil” is a LIE. Shocking? Wait, it gets worse. The pipeline would also threaten a geologically unstable area that happens to sit over the US’s biggest aquifer (also one of the largest in the world), and make the water undrinkable for about 23 million US citizens. AND, on top of everything else, it’s a job killer…and would make gasoline more expensive, not less so, for those still unfortunate enough to be driving locally made gas-guzzlers. Because the US is still a net petroleum IMPORTER, and most of that imported oil comes From Canada and the Middle East. And because the oil from that pipeline, from Canada, would not be going to serve US needs, but would be converted into gasoline for the lucrative export market. (I had to laugh at the part about shipping it to South America. They have more than enough of their own in Ecuador, Venezuela, Argentina, Chile…and now, Brazil. All South American countries would be more than adequately served from South American oil, refined and supplied by state-run industries! What would they need Texas-shipped gasoline for? Even Mexico and Cuba have plenty for their own needs, and won’t have to rely on the US for that. And Cuba will have help from Venezuela in developing and refining its own offshore oil, so US corporations will be out in the cold there.)

Yes, folks, this is the “ethical” oil that Ezra Fucking Levant is shilling his putzy ass off for. Seems so very ethical now, doesn’t it?

Wait, it gets worse. Let’s go back to the oil-baron threat again. You think it’s nothing serious? It got one previous US president assassinated for daring to oppose the barons. And his vice-president and successor, who happened to be from Texas, and very much in the pockets of the oil barons himself, was a key suspect in his murder:

Pay special attention to the part about Clint Murchison Sr., the oil king with connections to LBJ, J. Edgar Hoover, and other shadowy figures of the Kennedy assassination. He was so intimate with them that they partied, and plotted JFK’s demise, at his Texas mansion. Was this where the order went out to kill Kennedy? Quite likely. Between them, the CIA, the Mafia, and the anti-Castro ex-Cubans, it was a perfect storm of colluding, and corrupting, interests!

And let’s not forget, Obama’s predecessor is a Connecticut Yankee from Texas. And yes, Dubya is himself deep in Big Oil’s pockets…STILL. As a wannabe oil baron himself, he was a bust, but as their patsy, he made out like a bandit both as governor and later, as a two-term unelected president.

Anyone who thinks Big Oil has clean hands, and isn’t above assassinating non-compliant leaders, really should watch The Men Who Killed Kennedy in its nine-episode entirety…and bear in mind that very little has changed in US politics since then. It will certainly put the enormous pressures on Obama in a powerful new light. And it will make clear why it is imperative for common citizens to oppose Big Oil and its inordinate influence on the politics of all North America. It is not an exaggeration to say that our entire democratic system is in grave danger from it.

An Ecuadorable little satellite

December 12, 2011 — Sabina Becker

A Russian Dnepr RS-20 rocket like this one will carry an Ecuadorian satellite into orbit next year.

Sheesh. Those crazy Latinos, whatever will they do next? First Venezuela puts Simón Bolívar into orbit, then Bolivia follows suit with Tupac Amaru. Now, Ecuador is also getting in on the Earth-orbiting business, with a tiny little titan of its own:

Ecuador will be launching its first satellite, for use in scientific and educative missions, in September 2012. For this reason, it will sign a contract in the coming week with a Russian company which will launch the satellite into orbit, according to the Ecuadorian Civil Space Agency (EXA).

The satellite, named NEE-O1 Pegaso, weighs 1.2 kilograms, measures 75 centimetres wide by 10 centimetres high, and was built by Ecuadorian technicians with no foreign assistance, according to an EXA press release.

The satellite will be placed in orbit by a Dnepr RS20 rocket launched from Russia next September. It will incorporate a video transmission system for live broadcasts from space, and solar panels just 1.5 millimetres thick.

The signing of the launch contract will take place on Tuesday in the auditorium of the Aerial Warfare Academy in Quito.

Translation mine.

BTW, Aporrea also reports that at least 6,000 Venezuelan households now enjoy satellite TV courtesy of the Simón Bolívar satellite, also known as Venesat-1. The project is still in its early stages, but so far, reception has been good (pun intended).

Something tells me that at the rate things are going, Latin America is going to be a lot less dependent on gringo technology, and a lot more reliant on its own. And that’s a GOOD thing!

Festive Left Friday Blogging: Tweet of the Day

November 30, 2011 — Sabina Becker

Courtesy of a Venezuelan tweep:

“Sometimes Rafael Correa makes me think I’m gay.”

Ladies ‘n’ gents, he’s talking about THIS fine-ass dude here:

The president of Ecuador, arriving in Caracas, Venezuela, for a LatAm summit.

And totally reminding me that I, too, am a gay man trapped in a woman’s body, if the wet dreams I have about this one every so often are any indication.

Festive Left Friday Blogging: Ollanta inaugurates, Chavecito celebrates

July 29, 2011 — Sabina Becker

Yesterday was a busy, festive day in Latin America. In Peru, a progressive finally got himself inaugurated president:

Ollanta Humala is in the sash! That’s his wife, Nadine Heredia, applauding behind him. Radio Rebelde has more on what Peru can expect of an Ollanta presidency. Sounds like more international unity is on tap, and that’s a good thing.

Meanwhile, look who didn’t show up to hand over the sash (which, I’m sure, had to be retailored to fit Ollanta’s much slighter physique):

“Just so nobody says I had too much of an ego, I decided to come to the ceremony.”

Guess Twobreakfasts “Julius Caesar” García knows he won’t be missed — except, maybe, by foreign mining company execs, who are all crying in their Pisco Sours still this fine morning. I doubt Ollanta is going to be quite as quick with the rubber stamp as his vendepatria predecessor; hence the weeping and gnashing of teeth.

And while a certain somebody from Venezuela couldn’t make it either (both he and his Paraguayan counterpart, Fernando Lugo, had to absent themselves for health reasons, not ego), there was still plenty of celebrating going on in Caracas:

Yes, the big birthday boy is 57 as of yesterday. And he vows he’s good for 57 more! I can well believe it; he’s looking plump and healthy, which is always a good sign. He looks just about as youthful as his lovely daughters and cute little grandsons, actually, thanks to plenty of rest, good food, exercise and the assiduous care of those excellent Cuban doctors. (Jack Layton, on the other hand, worries me; at his press conference this past week, he looked painfully thin.)

Definitely no worries about Chavecito, he’s not going anywhere:

He was in great spirits, wishing Ollanta (who’s already visited with him) all the best, and thanking his amigo, El Ecuadorable, for the spiffy sunglasses the latter gave him for his birthday (he even models them briefly in the video. Very sharp!) And of course, Fidel, Raúl, and the Cuban medical team that looked after him on his last stay in Havana. With friends like those, another 57 years are easily in the bag.

Pa’lante, Comandante.

Festive Left Friday Blogging: Chavecito, fine ‘n’ dandy

July 22, 2011 — Sabina Becker

And look! He’s entertaining visits from some friends in high places…again:

El Ecuadorable was there, along with Fidel and Raúl Castro. And it looks like a good time was had by all.

And on the health front, too, the news is nothing but good:

The president of Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, informed on Friday, via telephone from Havana, Cuba, that he had successfully completed his first cycle of chemotherapy.

In a conversation with the Executive Vice-President, Elías Jaua, who was in the state of Lara with various Popular Power organizations, the president said that he had begun a second round of the medical treatment.

“I’ve completed my first round of chemotherapy treatments, which I have undergone in the last few days. The cycle is done, I must tell you it was successful [...] I’ve regained weight, I’m at my ideal, of 86 kilos, I used to be 100 kg [...] Now we’re preparing for a second cycle, to definitively destroy and eliminate any risk of the presence of more malignant cells,” Chávez said.

The leader of the Bolivarian Revolution also thanked the people of Venezuela for all the support they have given him in his struggle to fully regain his health.

“The will to live has erupted like a volcano from the depths of my being, and with all this medical attention thanks to Fidel’s revolutionary Cuba, and the Venezuelan and Cuban doctors, as well as the Venezuelan and Cuban nurses, and the love of all of you, the people; your spiritual support, your good wishes for life. All those increase its effect,” said Chávez.

Translation mine.

Can we now please stop writing premature obituaries for the man? Cancer stopped being a definitive death sentence decades ago. But to hear the lamestream media up here tell it, Chavecito’s not much longer for this world. (Pajamas “Media”, FUX Snooze — I’m glaring at YOU, rumor-mongering know-nothings.)

Chemo, in this case, isn’t a palliative measure for a dying man, but a preventive measure to make sure that he lives long and prospers. Kind of like his genial, bearded host, Fidel. Remember him? People were writing his obit prematurely too, a few years ago. And here he is, still looking fine for all that he’s been through. Gonna live to be a hundred and die thumbing his nose at the Yanks. Chavecito, too!

No wonder the tittle-tattle “reporters” are trying to paint it all black. They must all be crying in their little umbrella cocktails right now. Oh well, they’ve got their inflated paycheques to console them. And the still-huge crowd of fellow know-nothings, who continue to read them in spite of the repeated evidence that everything these right-wing crapagandists write is, well, CRAP. That’s got to be good for something while your liver is rotting from the drink, eh?

Ollanta, Evo. Evo, Ollanta.

June 22, 2011 — Sabina Becker

This is such a nice shot of Ollanta and Evo that I was tempted to save it for Friday. But the story that goes with it is too hot to sit on for three whole days, so here it is:

The president-elect of Peru, Ollanta Humala, said on Tuesday in Bolivia that he dreamed of one homeland, united, as it had been for centuries.

In a speech at a luncheon given by Bolivian president Evo Morales, along with representatives of government ministries, social organizations, the military and the diplomatic corps, the dignitary emphasized that he was talking about a single nation, a single country.

Humala also said that Latin America is changing thanks to its peoples and their new leaders — a continent, he said, with Amazonia, the largest freshwater reserve, but with unequal distribution of these and other natural resources.

In this spirit, Humala called upon Morales to work with him to create economic policies that create more integration, development, and to solve the principal problems of the sectors historically marginalized by previous governments.

Hours before returning to his country, Humala explained that the tour he had begun, which had previously taken him to Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay and Paraguay, and which will take him in turn to Ecuador, Colombia, Venezuela and the United States, is to send a message of unity.

He said of his upcoming inauguration, slated for July 28, that he would only serve the people, and not the economic powers.

Humala criticized previous governments, who forged a state in republican days that only attended to 30 percent of the population and neglected the remaining 70 percent, who remained cut off and marginalized, mostly in rural areas.

He also praised the possibilities of Bolivia, demonstrated at that same luncheon, where indigenous dignitaries sat at the same table as uniformed officers, executive authorities, legislators and diplomats.

For his part, Bolivian president Evo Morales stated that the current successes in Bolivia were the result of the struggles of the social movements, much as would occur in Peru.

Morales wished Humala strength for the hard work ahead, above all against those who would try to derail the changes and transformations to come, as had occurred in Bolivia.

When you serve the people, the bases will defend you, Morales added, and remarked: “With the conscience of the people, we will overcome.”

Translation mine.

Well. So much for those who think Ollanta will be just more of the same for Peru. Unity with Bolivia and other Latin American countries? A more equal distribution of wealth and resources? More integration and inclusion for the marginalized indigenous? This is definitely not another Twobreakfasts García we’re talking about here, kiddies.

And I don’t think he’s going to be another Lula, as the English-language bizmedia have been trying to position him, either. Lula’s most notable failure? Improving things for the landless peasants of Brazil, who’ve been left to carry on their struggles without him (although things ARE looking up now that former guerrilla Dilma Rousseff is at the helm; sign here to help keep a certain pair of feet to the fire). Ollanta is definitely sending the message that he’s going to take his cues from his neighbor, Evo, who has succeeded at the so-called impossible.

And the parallels are hard to miss: A poor, marginalized, largely indigenous majority, set against rule by a minority which is mostly white and all of it rich? The situation of both countries was the same for a long time, until Evo broke with it. Bolivia is now on the verge of exiting the poor-country category and entering a solid middle ground. Pretty impressive for a place that had long been given up as stuck in the Third World!

But here’s no coincidence: 70% of Peruvians were marginalized. Guess what Ollanta’s current approval rating is? The exact same figure. We know who approves of him already: That same excluded majority. Their reasons for approval are varied, but I think they’d probably like it if he were more like Evo. They can’t have missed the evidence that Bolivia is pulling ahead of Peru in many respects.

I don’t believe there will be an actual dissolution of the borders between Bolivia and Peru, but if the latter can take its cues from the former, it will certainly look as if the two are one.

Festive Left Friday Blogging: Ollanta Presidente!

June 10, 2011 — Sabina Becker

My gosh, the dominoes are just tumbling in Latin America, aren’t they? It’s getting so that you’d hardly recognize the place anymore. First it was Venezuela, then Bolivia and Ecuador. Argentina and (for a while) Chile have had some progressive types, too. Brazil is now on its second one. And Paraguay got a “red” ex-bishop, and Uruguay an old Tupamaro. Honduras had a liberal guy who took his cues from the more progressive neighbors to the south, and he scared the shit out of Washington so badly, they had to back a coup to depose him before he rewrote the Honduran constitution on true democratic lines. And now, after a bloated, disastrous term of “investment grade” Twobreakfasts García, look who’s finally in power in Peru:

Yep, he made it. He increased his vote respectably following his loss last time around, and beat out the daughter of a dictator on the second round of balloting this time ’round. That it even went to a second round between those two, of all people, was something surprising for me; I’d have thought Peruvians were so tired of neoliberal neofascism that they’d be electing him in one. Especially since the booming success of Venezuela under Chavecito, who hasn’t been a bit shy about his moral support where Ollanta is concerned. WTF, Peru?

Of course, all the usual voices of unreason have started cranking up already, with the usual belchings of fact-free prose. The CS Monitor, in particular, haz Teh Stoopid in a major way. How the election of a leftist could possibly mark a decline in the Latin American left, I don’t know. Guess they had to spin this in favor of neoliberal bullshit somehow, or the corporatists behind them would scream. Everyone who’s been following Otto (who is not an Ollanta fan himself) even halfway attentively, knows that “investment grade” Peru’s so-called economic growth is a big lie for the most part. My advice is to take whatever Sara Miller Llana says and rotate it 180 degrees if you want to get anywhere near the truth, and then dump a huge truckload of salt on it.

Or better still, read Upside Down World. They’ve also got good analysis from Mark Weisbrot, who notes that in fact, the big losers here were the traditional ruling caste of Peru. Stick THAT in your crack-pipe and smoke it, Sara!

And The Nation is another solid go-to place. They actually report on LatAm leftists without prejudice, and their piece on Ollanta’s win and what it means is must-read analysis. (It’s also very damning of the imperialist interference revealed by Wikileaks. Read it, read it, READ IT!)

Meanwhile, here are my own thoughts:

Plenty of Peruvians, especially in the working classes, are surely hoping Ollanta will, indeed, be the “Peruvian Chávez”. They’re also looking at the changes in neighboring Bolivia and hoping that some of Evo’s hard-won good luck rubs off. They’ve been waiting an awfully long time; at least five years, probably much more. Of course, how much Ollanta will succeed in copying Chavecito’s and Evo’s success depends on how much of the Peruvian parliament he can get behind him. I don’t know what’s up with that.

It would be nice if Ollanta’s Peru could be the next ALBA signatory; it would be especially hopeful for the indigenous peoples, who’ve seen all kinds of terrible (and bloody) setbacks under the overtly racist rule of Alan García, who had no qualms about selling their land right out from under them and even called them “dogs” for daring to protest against that. (None of them are sorry to see HIM go.) But I don’t know whether or when that will happen; again, a lot hinges on the parliament, and it appears to be a house much divided against itself.

Let’s face it, in a country as counterintuitive as Peru is, any victory over imperialism is worth celebrating, however small. I don’t know if Ollanta will exceed expectations or even meet them. But at least he’s not going in there totally friendless and alone; he’ll have support from Venezuela, Bolivia and Ecuador, at the very least. And in any case, he can do no worse than has already been done. He beat out the worst, so it’s worth hoping for the best. I dare to hope he will change Peru for the better, and I look forward to seeing how he does that.

¡Viva Ollanta PRESIDENTE!

Festive Left Friday Blogging: A big victory for Ecuador

May 20, 2011 — Sabina Becker

Because there’s no such thing as too much Ecuadorability, this week goes to Rafael Correa, again. And I’m sure that when you read this, you’ll agree that Ecuador deserves a high-five:

On Friday, the president of Ecuador, Rafael Correa, celebrated the decision of the Supreme Court of Colombia to declare “without juridical validity” the data from the computer alleged to have belonged to the deceased guerrilla leader, Raúl Reyes.

The president stated that the ruling demonstrates that all the documents extracted were a “tall tale”.

“I’m not surprised by the decision of the Supreme Court. Moreover, I recognize the quality of justice in Colombia, because despite the political pressures that had to come to bear (on the members of the judiciary in this instance), they acted rightly and what they are saying is what we have always known,” said Correa.

[...]

The president had been accused a few days ago by the International Institute for Strategic Studies (IISS) of having asked for and received financing from the FARC for his political campaign of 2006.

Correa emphasized that only the corrupt media outlets gave echo to those accusations, along with “the planetary powers who try to damage every progressive government.”

He underlined that the archives were allegedly extracted from the computers confiscated by the Colombian army, during an illegal raid on Ecuadorian territory (in the Colombia-Ecuador border region) on March 1, 2008, in which the #2 FARC leader, Raúl Reyes, was killed.

The event generated tensions between the governments of Ecuador and Colombia.

This week, the president of the Supreme Court of Colombia, Camilo Tarquino, declared that the evidence derived from those archives was “null and illegal due to having been gathered with neither authorization nor participation of the authorities” of Ecuador.

As well, they were in document format, and were not taken from an e-mail address that might demonstrate that they had been sent and received, Tarquino added.

Translation mine.

BTW, the IISS is about as smelly a source as you can get for allegedly incriminating information about a foreign leader. Venezuelanalysis notes that they were also the source of the “dodgy dossier” that was sexed-up to incriminate Saddam Hussein. That dossier provided a pretext for the Coalition of the Killing to declare war on Iraq…illegally, as it turns out. And since they’re agitating for war on Ecuador and Venezuela (Ecuador partly for refusing to keep the Manta base open to the gringos, and partly for refusing to let ChevronToxico off the hook, Venezuela for a multitude of reasons, all stemming from her popular democratic leader), I think we can spot a dirty agenda at work here.

Happily, Colombia is no longer playing along the way it once was (rather surprisingly, considering that its current president was El Narco’s defence minister at the time the Raúl Reyes raid went down). Juan Manuel Santos is being remarkably decent to his neighbors, which must have the whole region breathing a quiet but definite sigh of relief. Ecuador has dodged a bullet here, and Venezuela no doubt will be the next country exonerated. That, surely, is worth celebrating this Festive Left Friday, no?
