    They'll blame it on industrial nation's impact on the environment and seek financial restitution. The UN will eagerly agree with the blatent wealth redistribution and the opportunity to whitewash socialism necrotic conclusion with today's PC bullshit.

    I needed a good laugh to start the day!

    Though, on a serious note, it is known that temperature increase raises the impedance on copper conductors. The 1C rise due to global warming was the perfect opportunity for the US to launch its Hydrogen Confusion bombs. Preparatory to the invasion of Capitalists!

    “It terrifies me to think we are facing a national blackout again,” said Maria Luisa Rivero, a 45-year-old business owner from the city of Valencia, in the central state of Carabobo.

    “The first thing I did was run to freeze my food so that it does not go bad like it did like the last time in March. It costs a lot to buy food just to lose it,” she said.

    Unfortunately Venezuelan intelligence (That is NOT an oxymoron) failed to distribute the remedy in time to avert the tragic effects of the attack. "Turn off all your air conditioning".

    Gee whiz, me dino didn't know that a socialist system could launch an "electromagnetic attack" against its own population.
    After all, y'all just got to knows that the wannabe socialists of the USA would implicitly trust whatever fearless leader they elect to tell them what to do.

    That government will blame “Aliens” before they blame their radical moves to real socialism.
