I do believe this is the reply that Kirjava was waiting for. Something told me you were going to be ecstatic.

This will be like after Kim Jong Il died and North Korea became all normal again!

Ok not as eloquent as I expected.

What will happen is the usual, one or the other top govt guys at the top will vie for power, they will mostly win, unless there´s some strange dark shadow plot conspiracy agenda I am not aware of. But the way things are going, and following history, things will happen mostly like in Panama after Noriega´s oust and the PRD using the image of former national hero Omar Torrijos

In our case, the Political party that supported him will use his memory and the PSUV will win democratic elections for a few years until eventually a few disgruntled guys form a solid opposition bloc and alternate power for years. (our current opposition is a joke)

Like someone said, once the venom is inside the body for so long, it doesnt matter if you cut the snake´s head.

I am just happy for the historical milestone. The guy is gone, good riddance, what happens next is something that is simply more or less the same.

My country is gone for good, a place so foreign to me now as any other country in the world. I am officially a citizen of Venezuela in paper only, not in spirit.

I came to accept that a long time ago.

All I have ahead is the satisfaction of having seen him dead and the bittersweet feeling of knowing some of my dead friends have been avenged in my mind by nothing less than "fate" ... or like our government sponsored VP said publicly : "Obama´s Cancer Gun" I don´t care. He´s dead, that´s all that matters to me.

The future is for the younger generations, may they grab it by the horns or be trampled by it in a bloody fashion.

In that department , I am at peace now.

My current social/economic/political position will not be improved by him gone, my lost assets, the seized and expropriated assets of my father/family won´t return either, my dead friends will remain dead and those that had to flee and seek asylum due to political persecution will remain abroad. Nothing has changed, and like most things, life will continue the same for me.

I am a man that lost almost everything but his dignity. Were it not for me being able to foresee things I would be a pauper, like a lot of close aquaintances, forced to remain in the country not out of a sense of patriotism but due to a sense of hunger and families to feed.

So in short, all I can say is I toast tonight from my little shack in the foreign woods, remembering the days when I toasted from my castle in the ancient kingdom that is no more.

He´s dead, and in the end, I have the sheer satsifaction of having seem him buried.

May the worms grow fat off his putrid carcass.

Salut!

Be assured friend, that in the wheel of things, it will get you too. And that is marvelous

You mean like brujo will get cancer?

Like all evil people get cancer, since they deserve it?

Teach me more about your philosophy.
