God bless the people of Venezuela.One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls. Honest and passionate folks can strongly disagree regarding spiritual matters, so it's imperative that we not allow such considerations to infringe on the real happiness of real people.

The advertisements call for peaceful demonstrations. It looks like there are those who would do otherwise. This is starting to spiral. In the Ukraine, the EU pressed for restraint in the response to protests. Who is pressing for that in Venezuela? The external voices seem very muted.One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls.

Maduro's trying to promote a Conference on Peace today, promoting the #madurohombredepaz hashtag, while he lets Cuba send weapons and troops to help him.Originally posted by snowcat View PostThe advertisements call for peaceful demonstrations.

These are alleged Cuban arms.

And now Putin joins in...
Russian spy ship docked in Havana
http://news.yahoo.com/russian-spy-sh...5TY3cAUS_QtDMDNeither Cuban authorities nor state media have mentioned the ship's visit, unlike on previous tours by Russian warships.
The former Soviet Union was Cuba's sponsor state through three decades of Cold War. After a period of some distancing under former Russian president Boris Yeltsin, the countries renewed their political, economic and military cooperation.
The ship is reportedly armed with 30mm guns and anti-aircraft missiles.
Its visit comes as isolated Havana's current economic and political patron, Venezuela, is facing unprecedented violent protests against President Nicolas Maduro's government.One of the grandest benefits of the enlightenment was the realization that our moral sense must be based on the welfare of living individuals, not on their immortal souls.

Right now, there are about 100 new tweets per minute with the hashtag #ElQueSeCansaPierde"Wuap's "problem" is that he is smart & principled & committed to a moral course of action.
