[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***To the Cuban brothers, it was essential to sedate all the Venezuelans,***

Cuba has been trying to take over Venezuela for sixty years.

Just after the Cuban Revolution they contracted with an arms making firm in Canada to manufacture FN rifles for Cuba.

Those firearms were stamped with the Cuban Coat of Arms.

Several months later, in Venezuela, there was found a large cache of hidden FN rifles, all with their coat of arms ground off.

A quick dye test showed them to be Cuban FNs.

I attended a dinner a few weeks ago with a colleague for some clients from Venezuela. I was surprised to learn that gas sells for mere pennies at the pump, while ‘luxury’ items sell for four times the US price. One of the four said he was returning to Venezuela with $10,000 worth of: cameras, make up, jeans and other clothing items. As he said this, his colleagues all nodded as if saying: “Yes. me too.”
