     The decade of the 2010s certainly seemed to close on a twinkling of hope for Venezuela. Spain ordered the extradition<\/a> of Venezuela\u2019s Ex-Intelligene chief to the U.S., while Maduro\u2019s brother tyrant, Evo Morales, fled Bolivia<\/a> after he was caught rigging an election. So, the times they are a changin’?<\/p>\n

     Only for the worse: Maduro\u2019s military minions<\/a> won\u2019t allow<\/a> their bread n\u2019 butter to come to harm, and in lieu of Morales, Maduro has Communist<\/a> Daniel Ortega in control of Nicaragua.<\/p>\n

     Those who protest against this are blocked<\/a>\u2026 and forced to sleep naked on soiled mattresses<\/a>.<\/p>\n

     Will Venezuela\u2019s opposition leader Juan Guiado<\/a> be able to do anything\u2026 particularly when the last bastions of opposition to Maduro have been taken over<\/a> by Maduro?<\/p>\n

     As Livy once said, \u201cSome day, perhaps, remembering even this will be a pleasure\u201d\u2026<\/p>\n
