"...one million ultra-Orthodox Jews staged a protest...
Jews, by virtue of their faith, would never support the deviant, murderous, godless Israel and its perverse army. Judaism absolutely forbids Zionist ideology."

Really interesting article. It would be interesting to know what other resources Venezuela has that are equally accessible & maybe, far more profitable, gold etc.
Many US analysts view the ouster of Venezuelan strongman Nicolás Maduro as benefiting the US at China’s expense, but two big factors make this less of a win for Washington and less of a loss for Beijing, writes Melanie Hart.
Why Maduro's removal could ultimately benefit China
Two important factors make the recent US operation in Venezuela less of a loss for China than many analysts realize.
