From Palestine to Venezuela: Chevron Profits From U.S. Imperialism

On Saturday morning, Trump bombed Caracas, Venezuela’s capital, and forcibly captured President Maduro in an illegal military operation conducted without congressional authorization. The U.S. military killed dozens of civilians, military personnel, and officials in the strikes.¹

Trump isn’t even hiding why he bombed Venezuela. At his press conference, he said the U.S. would “run” Venezuela, “rebuild the oil infrastructure,” and “take out a tremendous amount of wealth out of the ground.”² He openly discussed U.S. oil companies going into Venezuela to extract and sell the country’s oil—the largest proven reserves in the world.³

This war is about seizing Venezuela’s wealth and handing it to Big Oil corporations like Chevron, which are already being enriched by rising stock prices after Trump’s attack.⁴ All in the interest of U.S. imperialis
