Venezuela in Turmoil: Military chief peldges loyalty to Maduro

The head of Venezuela's military has publicly pledged loyalty to Nicolas Maduro. In many ways, the power struggle in the Latin American country mirrors the recent crises in Algeria and Sudan - a president who's not universally popular, facing huge public demonstrations, but hanging on to power. The leaders of the two African nations eventually departed when the military withdrew its support. In Venezuela, facing opposition calls for a series of labour strikes, Maduro's challenge continues. Liz Maddock reports.

Oh Venezuelans, remember what happened to Iraq, Libya and Syria. Do not let America in.
Do not let that fate be yours.

The military chief pledges loyalty to the people of Venezuela who invested their power in Maduro. When the people *_by their own devices and will_* chooses another leader...the military will be loyal to the people's choice...as it should be...

Dear Venezuelans, find a way to survive. If you trust the Americans, look at Iraq's, Afghanistan, Libya e.t.c
