While
Venezuela’s government and the Chavista movement proclaimed victory
over the worst blackouts to plague the country, Washington’s coup
masters have promised more darkness until their goals are complete.

note: Between March 7th and 10th of 2019, Venezuela experienced the
longest interruption of its electric system in the country’s
history. The government alleged that the blackout was the result of a
sabotage directed against the central computer of the main
hydroelectric power station at El Guri in Bolívar State.
If the
electrical collapse was indeed the result of an outside attack, it
represented the most severe escalation of hostilities since the
beginning of the latest regime change campaign. The blackout
significantly disrupted Venezuelan society and showed that the war
against the country targeted everyone, regardless of their political
affiliations.
What
follows is a reconstruction of those moments of darkness, showing how
the deluge of fake news and humanitarian propaganda, the interruption
and recovery of the electrical services, the calls for violence and
the organization of the people and their families transformed daily
life into a struggle for peace and coexistence. As in the past, the
Chavismo movement successfully resisted Washington’s attempts to
foment a civil war.
