1. They are undoubtedly keeping a close watch on National Guard armories, I would think.

Remember the group of over 1000 paramilitaries the oligarchs brought in from Colombia several years ago testified, after being arrested, that they had been given the orders to attack a National Guard armory and steal 2,000 rifles and ammunition, etc. preparatory to their assault on Miraflores to assassinate Hugo Chavez.

We didn't learn about it through the US corporate media, of course, but thousands of Venezuela marched in the street to protest this interrupted assassination attempt on their president.

We notice all their targets are valuable to the Venezuelan people themselves. I hope somehow they are brought to justice and made to pay for this. They have a good swift kick coming to them.
