This was not a Socialist Resistance publication. marxsite was Phil Hearse’s own long-form site, run alongside the paper he helped edit. It is kept here with his agreement, recovered from the Internet Archive after the domain lapsed and was taken over by someone else; nothing here links to the address it now points at.

"Chávez is the best thing that has happened to Venezuela’s poor in a very long time. His government has actually delivered on some of its promises, with improved literacy rates and more students getting school meals. Public spending has quadrupled on education and tripled on healthcare, and infant mortality has declined. The government is promoting one of the most ambitious land-reform programs seen in Latin America in decades." Alex Cockburn , The Nation

" Sooner or later, matters will be solved by a decisive victory of one side or another. The revolution has not yet passed the point of no return. All the gains made by the masses under the Chavez government can still be liquidated. The movement can be thrown far back. That is what the counterrevolutionaries are fighting for, while the workers are fighting to defeat them. The question of power has not yet been settled. In the not too distant future the decisive battle will have to be fought and won ." Alan Woods

ANTI-CHAVEZ HATE SITE The hatred of the Venezuelan ruling and middle classes for Chavez and the Bolivarian process knows no bounds. Check out this site organised by upper and middle class women, the same women who banged their pots against Allende in Chile - Chavez has 'drowned the country in blood', 'Venezuela is living through terrible times' etc etc. You don't have to read Spanish to get the gist.
