"The Bush administration tried and failed three prior times to oust Hugo
Chavez since its first aborted two-day coup attempt in April, 2002.
Through FOIA requests, lawyer, activist and author Eva Golinger
uncovered top secret CIA documents of US involvement that included an
intricate financing scheme involving the quasi-governmental agency,
National Endowment of Democracy (NED), and US Agency for International
Development (USAID). The documents also showed the White House, State
Department and National Security Agency had full knowledge of the
scheme, had to have approved it, and there's little doubt of CIA
involvement as it's always part of this kind of dirty business. What's
worrying now is what went on then may be happening again in what looks
like a prelude to a fourth made-in-Washington attempt to oust the
Venezuelan leader that must be monitored closely as events develop."
