HRW goes on rampage against Venezuela...again
19-09-2008 02:25
Human Rights(sic) Watch does it again...prove its an arm of the US govt, with its latest risible attack on the Venezuela govt and people.People may like to right to this stupid organisation and point out their ties to the US govt and NED make them very unreliable comentators on Latin America.

No Discrimination by the old elite, US govt and HRW against Chavez are what are blatant.
