because of the Church committee hearings and FOIA releases. Almost all of what you post above was in the public domain back in the early 80s when I wrote an undergraduate thesis on the coup. I'm not aware of that kind of documentation for Venezuela, but then I haven't looked either. Still, we know there haven't been high profile hearings like the Church committee.
