I am appalled at the gloating tone of Peeping Tom’s commentary on the understandable inability of our GDF to respond militarily to Venezuela’s aggressions against Guyana (KN 1/27/19). Given the writer’s obvious gleeful gloating, I have no doubt that this person is not emotionally invested in the well-being of our country as long as it is being ruled by the current government.
The Peeper attempted to hide the true intent of his commentary by using its first few sentences to heap effusive but devious praise on President Granger for his handling of aspects of the Venezuela problem. However, the political intent could not be suppressed.
It’s a crying shame that political and policy differences have brought us to the place where a native-born person can openly take to a widely-read publication to gloat about the understandable inability of his nation’s defence forces to respond to baneful foreign aggression.
Editor, with this kind of politically-motivated, Venezuela-pleasing writing by Peeping Tom, the Venezuelans are assured of, and our government knows of, at least one Trojan Horse in our midst. The sad truth is that there are many others.
Sincerely,
Lionel Lowe
