Braulio Alvarez Statement on Mumia (member of the Venezuelan Assembly)

Braulio Alvarez, a member of the Venezuelan parliament and leader of the farmers struggle in Venezuela.

Receive from us our spiritual love and our spiritual strength for all of you fighting for the struggle. We have decided to go the American embassy in Caracas to hand to the ambassador a letter to the governor of Pennsylvania, demanding that he immediately liberate Mumia Abu-Jamal.

We believe that the next U. S. president should follow the example of President Chavez, who has liberated over 130 members of the paramilitary who came from Colombia and were captured in Caracas, many of whom were involved in the coup to overthrow the Chavez government. The people with less or no proof of innocence have been liberated in Venezuela. Why then not in the United States for our brother Mumia? And because of the people United States are fighting for the struggle, we know that Mumia shall be free soon.

On behalf of the farmers, of all the campesinos of Venezuela, on behalf of all the brothers and sisters of Venezuela, we know we shall win along -side of you.

Long live the people's revolution on a world- wide scale! Long live the people's struggles!

It's a real shame the people of other countries have been duped into believing Mumia is a "Political Prisoner". Tell a lie big enough and often....I think you know the rest. Hans, in your heart of hearts do you REALLY believe Mumia DID NOT murder Officer Faulkner when the conviction, trial and evidence have been affirmed?

...argue that Mumia has more support outside of Philly, because local media coverage has been so biased against Mumia, and I'd have to agree. This international support is impressive. According the "fry mumia" mythology, his supporters are "dupes" or in the words of someone from the national media (which is almost as bad as the local media), Sam Donaldson:

"The people who support his release don't do so from a position of knowledge." He continued: "They either oppose the death penalty, or they're campus rebels, or they're African-American activists who believe that a black man was railroaded, and will continue to believe it, no matter what's presented to them."

Talk about overt racism,"or they're African-American activists who believe that a black man was railroaded" !

This criminal bias in the mainstream media coverage of this case has been well-docuemnted many places including here:

Even Joseph Gobbels would be amazed with our media...

As official Nazi propagandist, his main tactic was to keep repeating lies until the public eventually came to believe them-the same tactic the "mainstream" media here has perfected for maximume effect, but with the addition of systematically omitting everything that may contradict the propaganda being drummed into our heads, in this case, the assumed guilt of Mumia.

As with the Nazis in Germany last century, the WASP supremacists here have the arrogant "our way or the highway" attitude that since it was WASP English colonists that founded America, therefore, WASPs are ENTITLED to rule it forever and will use any tactic(like their German counterparts) to maintain their rule-as we are seeing here with their campaign against Mumia Abu Jamal.

Obviously, this also means that President Obama will have to keep watching his back throughout his term(s) in office and hope the Secret Service is on its J.O.B. as we already know from history what lengths the WASP elites here will go to to when elections don't go their way.

good point

after all, Hitler wrote in Mein Kampf that Germany would have to make their war propaganda as good as the US' during WW1, if the Germans were to win the next war.

While certainly the US ruling class has long admired much about Nazism, it should also be noted that the Nazi's were inspired by the US too.

Hans Mythology

The Mythology here is you and your group have not presented the TRUE and AFFIRMED FACTS. Over the last 27 years this case has been before many State and Federal courts for review and NONE have found Mumia was innocent of cold blooded murder and ALL have affirmed his conviction and FAIR trial. As I stated before regarding your posts..tell a lie big enough and long enough...you know the rest. The power of truth is final...Mumia..Guilty of Murder...affirmed. Your quote by Sam Donaldson, if accurate, says it all and not ONE bit racist but in your mind..well, who knows. Keep up your RANTS, you make the Justice For Daniel Faulkner supporters look good.
