The Momentum TWT at Labour's Conference in 3 weeks has two events from an 'independent' LatAm magazine called Alborada. One on Colombia and a film event. The mag runs Cuban, Vzla, Correa propaganda & is praised by John Pilger. theworldtransformed.org/programme alborada.net alborada
Alborada Co-Editor Pablo Navarrete on BBC World last week. Yes there is mismanagement by the regime but the economic crisis is also the fault of the opposition and Trump. and - as always - 'illegal sanctions'. He's a Maduro propaganda tool, IOW.
No surprise as Navarrete is a contributor/producer for @telesurenglish and @telesurtv (Venezuela's state propaganda organ) in the UK. Also a Craig Murray, Aaron Bastani & Ali Abunimah fan & he made a video for The Canary about JVL.
Alborada Co-Editor Nick MacWilliam is happily tweeting out Max Blumenthal's vile propaganda claiming the revolt in Nicaragua is a US-sponsored coup. Blumenthal goes on FoxNews to defend Trump. Then there's this 👇
Shamefully there's nothing on the TWT progamme on the brave struggle by Nicaraguans against the dictator Daniel Ortega. Instead we have state propagandists masquerading as 'independent'. 'International socialists' my arse.
As the space shrinks for open Maduro & Ortega fans, like the Solidarity campaigns & the Ambassadors, this is what they're doing, finding other ways to get across the propaganda lines like the US is responsible for Vzla's crisis. More Fool Momentum.
If you don't think Momentum is giving air to a key part of a pro-LatAm left dictators' propaganda network through featuring Alborada at TWT, that it's actually 'independent', check out who else is copied in to this disgusting tweet.
Cartoon in the current Morning Star. It's a simple script but it obviously appeals to plenty of people! elected left wing leaders - maduro, allende - know what the empire will try!
