I apologize for assuming you were from the US. I'm really curious what is with all the hate against Chavez from your perspective? Not the part about how he's censoring stuff or acting like a dictator. But what about his policies is so offensive to you or the significant part of the population that support a coup would seem like a good idea?

That didn't happen. It was faked by the TV station that was actively taking part in the coup attempt and picked up by CNN, et. al. to support the US position on the coup.

Now I know you're saying "that just wikipedia" but maybe read the cites. Or do a google search. Educate your self. You might find that the US government has done far worse in acting out foreign policy goals... And publicly acknowledged it: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CIA_sponsored_regime_change. Almost as bad as the Brits.

But I understand your need to deny anything that the US does that could be construed as bad since this might force you to take personal responsibility for your own life.
