Having been defeated in all its plans against Venezuela, the government of the United States (USA) decided to take a new step, placing figures from the big business gringo at the forefront of its attacks, in a kind of privatization of the war against the country.

Recently, in the midst of the media hysteria that preceded the elections of July 28, in which President Nicolás Maduro was re-elected; two magnates of the Empire, Elon Musk and Erik Prince, revealed their direct links with the extreme opposition right, led by María Corina Machado, alias La Sayona, and her puppet Edmundo González Urrutia; who executed their plan of violence in recent days.

What does Musk want?

Nationalized American, Elon Musk is an influential businessman born in Pretoria, South Africa, to a wealthy family. Her opinions on various social and political issues are controversial and have generated a lot of criticism, such as the controversy with one of her children, who is now a transgender woman named Jenna Davis, who has revealing opinions about her father's treatment.

In the political context, Musk has expressed his support for the former US president and current Republican candidate, Donald Trump, and everything he represents. It also celebrates controversial figures such as the extreme right Argentinian president Javier Milei. He does all this publicly through what is now his powerful social network called X, Twitter before he bought it.

From his platform, Musk doesn't worry about hiding his anti-Venezuelan hatred or his desire to take over Venezuela to exploit the wealth that the country has, for his own benefit, so he became an ally of extremists in their destabilizing plans.

This is a dangerous enemy for the Bolivarian Government, not so much because of its wealth and contacts with governments aligned with imperialism, but because of its dominance over all the means that facilitate fourth and fifth generation warfare, such as advanced telecommunications, neural networks, their applications and their investments in Artificial Intelligence. Space Link-type networks, those of type X, combined with AI centers make it an adversary of care, willing to do anything and thirsty for natural resources essential to maintain its large conglomerate.

In March, Musk revealed that he uses ketamine, an anesthetic and analgesic drug, which celebrities now take as a recreational drug. The tycoon explained that, supposedly, he takes the substance under a doctor's prescription and that this practice is “in the best interest of investors” of the companies he manages. Previously, the Wall Street Journal had reported that Tesla and SpaceX managers were concerned about the billionaire's recreational drug use.

Prince, the mercenary boss

Meanwhile, Erik Prince is a former member of the U.S. Navy's SEALs (Elite Force of the entire military structure), with whom he participated in many destabilizing missions from Haiti to Yugoslavia. After returning to civilian life, he developed a network of friends that later facilitated his subsequent career. He founded a company called BlackWater, which became one of the largest contractors providing services to mercenary forces in the US federal government.

At that time, it was decided that, in order to avoid investigations by the US Congress, it was better to privatize the horrible activities of assassinations, torture and massacres than it was recommended that they be carried out by official forces. The amounts involved were enormous, almost 4 billion dollars in 5 years, which make BlackWater a true power within the gringo military community. The atrocities committed by this mercenary company are uncountable. After several incidents. Prince sold BlackWater to another group that changed its name, now it's called Academi, which continues to receive many contracts from the military, not so juicy but worth millions.

Prince was in the ointment until 2010, when, due to a series of dangerous accusations, he founded a company that acts as a trader of strategic materials, called Frontier Service Group. Those who know him point out that now he doesn't murder people with shrapnel but with bills and bribes.

But what did this character see in Venezuela, who suddenly made him threaten the national government? Well, just like his friend Musk, natural energy and mineral resources in quantity.

These billionaires represent a new type of corporate colonialism, which seeks to take over a country through companies that settle and exploit its resources without paying anything back and, therefore, end up influencing its political and social life. There, the search for wealth overlaps with contempt for human life and political stability.

In Venezuela, these two magnates of cyber power and war on a global scale have played an important role in destabilization strategies to try to bring Edmundo González Urrutia and María Corina Machado to power, in order to intervene in PDVSA and in all the productive companies of the State, which belong to the Venezuelan people.
