The author of “The
Chávez Code,” Eva
Golinger argues in an article published January 2, in the
pro-government paper Correo del Orinoco,
that the National Security Agency could have assassinated President Chávez.
Golinger offers the usual conspiracy theorist construction in the form of a “we
know they have the capacity to do it, they had the will to do it, then they
probably did it” argument, without adding much new evidence to the case.
More interesting are comments
by readers in the Correo del Orinoco
web page. Being a public, pro-government paper (part of SIBCI), most of the
comments accept as a fact that Chávez was assassinated by the Empire.
Here are
some of those comments:

Of course they killed
our Chávez, of course the US government [killed him] using one of its terrorist
appendix, as has been proved in multiple occasions: the Pentagon, the CIA, etc.
That is its modus operandi. There are many examples: JFK, Allende, Gadafi, and
a really long list.
Prometeo said:
The Roman imperialist
and their Jewish lackeys assassinated Christ, and that is how Christianity was
originated, which undermined the Roman Empire until it extinguished it, and
this produced a great Jewish diaspora with persecutions and tribulations: the
innocents and the sinners paid alike.
Now the Imperialist
Yankees possibly killed Chavez, and chavismo
will become stronger.
Brothers in the
struggle, Venezuelans with patriotic conscience, the rest of the story will be written
by us.

I have no doubt that
the cancer suffered by our beloved comandante
is very strange, there is no family history [of cancer] and they [the doctors] were
not able to control it with anything, it’s impossible to get cancer in a
natural way. I firmly believe that this illness was induced by a secret weapon.
The gringos will one
day reveal the whole truth.

They have had this as
a secret for more than one hundred years. The deaths of my COMANDATE chávez,
the death of BOLIVAR, the White House, as it calls itself, has billions of
hidden crimes. They think we are stupid [pendejos].
