It looks like people in Bolivia are organizing a lot more effectively than in Venezuela right now though. Seems like reports of MAS demise were greatly exaggerated.

All of this feels like a long prelude to some action toward Brazil. (i.e. BRICS). Then there's the current social unrest in South Africa too.

I suspect so as well, the US is taking on smaller and weaker states, but eventually they will be used to surround Brazil and put it under siege.
