VENEZUELA: THE BATTLE TO SAVE VHEADLINE.COMfranzjutta, Sábado, Enero 15, 2005 - 09:58
Franz J. T. Lee
LOSING A STRATEGIC BATTLE IN THE WORLD WAR OF IDEAS By Franz J. T. Lee In its global spectrum, especially read in the USA and Canada, over the last years, VHeadline.Com was the only major website that has published daily, continuous information about Venezuela and the Bolivarian Revolution in the English language. It was a website that received worldwide recognition, and whose articles were linked by other web sites regularly. It was nothing unusual that articles written by its editorial staff were visited over 400 000 times a day ... this was the case of my Venezuela-Fallujah article, a while ago ... and, as was to be expected, we were maliciously and viciously attacked by the international agents of disinformation wars. Ironically, we were accused that we are on the "pay-roll of Chávez"; the truth is, that we by our own political human conviction were contributing our grain to the Bolivarian Revolution, and we financed everything on our own (to run a huge site like VHeadline.Com properly, at a minimum costs $US 4.000 a month ... also the site was kept alive via advertisements, that the CIA eventually also destroyed ... and, although we warned about the coming danger, and asked for urgent help over the last 6 months, nothing materialized from anywhere. VHeadline was left alone in agony, to the obvious joy of the reactionary forces, and to the detriment of the Bolivarian Revolution, and now it is off cyber space. Any aid and suggestions we will gladly receive, see the documentation of the last hours of VHeadline.Com below, whom we are convinced, that like Phoenix will soon arise out of its own ashes, to fulfill its English historic revolutionary mission: to continue to publish the Truth about Venezuela! As Che and Fidel stated decades ago, the duty of a revolutionary is to make the revolution; similarly, it is the duty of every revolutionary Latin American to disseminate the truth about Venezuela, and it is the constitutional duty of the Bolivarian Revolution, in its own international class interest, worldwide to aid any individual and collective efforts that struggle to further the global, permanent revolution. In this spirit, we ask for solidarity with VHeadline.Com, and to aid it financially to comply with its historic, informative task. WRITE TO US AND MAKE SUGGESTIONS AT:
