Machado: Don’t Cry for me Venezuela, the Truth is I never loved you!
✍️ Signature Counts That Didn’t Count
🔹 Free Julian Assange petition: 780,000 signatures
🔹 Nobel Peace Prize for Assange petition: 117,432 signatures
🔹Nobel Committee reaction: silence.
Meanwhile, the 2025 laureate is María Corina Machado, a U.S.-backed Venezuelan opposition leader bankrolled by the same agencies that tried to topple Maduro in 2019.
2009: Barack Obama, commander-in-chief of two wars, wins the medal before the ink on his drone orders dries.
2021: Filipino Maria Ressa, a CNN alumnus and Pentagon-friendly pundit, shares it with a Russian journalist perfect “West good, East bad” symmetry.
2025: Machado, who’s never negotiated a cease-fire, signed a peace accord, or stopped a single bullet.
The Nobel Peace Prize now rewards narratives, not negotiations.
Why Assange will never win
Assange exposed the machine: U.S. war logs, CIA cyber-weapons, State Department coups.
The Nobel Committee needs the machine.
Giving him the prize would legitimize the idea that telling the truth about Western wars is a contribution to peace.
Unthinkable.
Oslo will pin the medal on a warmonger before it honors heroes.
Venezuela’s counter-punch
Within 72 hours of Machado’s coronation, Caracas announced it is padlocking its embassies in Norway and Australia.
- Norway hosts the Nobel ceremony closing the mission is a slap at the political theater without touching the “independent” committee.
- Australia recognized Juan Guaidó in 2019, funnels sanctions talking-points at the UN, and hosts the Pine Gap spy base feeding intel to U.S. Southern Command.
The bigger picture
The Nobel Peace Prize is no longer a moral compass; it’s a PR arm of NATO’s narrative department.
When a Western-backed activist wins, media calls it “the world speaking.” When Caracas re-allocates its diplomats, media calls it “tantrum diplomacy.” Both stories prove the same point: the prize is about power, not peace.
When Oslo applauds “courage,” it means courage approved by Washington.
