Superb my friend, I like your style.
The more important question is, what do you think of my block quoting techniques?
To me I think they are almost perfect, maybe you might want to make the wording in between the block quotes bold and larger, so they stand out a little more, though that is my preference and not everyone's.
Example
In a postfrom Steven Bodzin's wordpress blog:
From another post on his blog:
From a leaked document published in 2013, on cryptome.org:
An exert from the email exchange in 2015 posted to cryptome.org:
All the same you compiled a lot of superb information, and I find compiling sometimes is more apt or effective than my own thoughts on a subject. Though you clearly stated your opinion in the article also- and for me that makes it 99% perfect.
Cool, thanks for the feedback. Now I need to work on that 1%...
If it was 10% or more I would agree, though 1% pft it matters not, and it is all subjective anyway, my take or point of view, will not be someone else's, I will expand on that with this example, some people like to read the full body of a link www.myfart.com instead of [here is a link] (www.myfart.com) as they can see what they are clicking, whilst others do not. So it is up to individual interpretation, you can never please everyone, so aim to please you.
lol deliberator, you are too kind with all your help and encouragement recently! However, I was actually taking the piss out of my recent post in my first response! Your advice was so good, that I felt bad in making that obvious though...haha.
I knew you were taking the piss, stupid I am not, offended I am never, just keep doing what you do bro, and enjoy doing it, that always shines through, when someone enjoys what they do, be it good or bad, or the majority "indifferent" lol.
I agree this is a quality post on a subject that gets very little attention!
Great to tie this together with sources at cryptome! I haven't check it out in ages, need to sniff around in there again ;)
Great work @palikari123!
Is that the Wikileaks one over now? I cant wait to get stuck into the next project, thanks for giving us all the opportunity to join in and the upvotes that also make it rewarding even if only to reach the 500 sp mark.
Thank you..I really appreciate It!
Yes Cryptome is, and has been an amazing resource for effective research with regards to corruption and all types of leaks. They really do an amazing job of collating all the information as a public service. Kudos to them!
Brilliant work here @palikari123 and some great digging! This post is testament to the validity and power of the deep dives project .. I certainly learned from it! Thank you for sharing my friend.
Thank you so much my friend:) Yes this deep dives project will add a lot of value to the platform and encourage more investigative journalism into these important topics.
Proof-Reading through this detailed post, I'm poised to ask why the world doesn't seem to be concerned with the issues raised here as it relates to similar if not the same issues Oil African state face... Where a certain few control and feed fat from the natural resources of these African States... Lovely article i must say... Thanks for sharing 😘
Thanks for your support and important comment, as I nod my head in agreement.
Just as irritating as thos nodding dog thingies that some people have in the rear window of their car.... :-) Keep those articles coming!
LOL...

A very useful reading to add insight ..
Nice post @palikari123
Thank you:)
Good research @palikari123. One feedback would be to summarise the block quotes as opposed to the lengthy read. Upvoted. Resteemed.
Thank you @amit86! Generally I agree with you, however on this occasion, I thought it was important to quote the actual whistleblower, while trying not to take their words out of context. Either way, thanks for the support!
All this evidence, the inability of government, sunk to the neck in corruption. When the north of an organization has the objectives they want to achieve clear, is what you get, and the administrators of the Venezuelan resources have it well planned, get rich. And what is lacking in corruption with gold mining in Venezuela must be giant , is not casuality because they are destroying an important part of the Venezuelan biodiversity, one of the six largest in the world.
Agreed. Thanks for reading:)
WOW excellent research work.
Thank you:)
Good work. You really stuck to the spirit of the #deepdives challenge.
Was this the first time you explored Wikileaks?
Hi fortified, thank you for the compliment... Really cool for an investigative journalist like you to visit and leave a comment! Yes it was the first time I explored Wikileaks. However it really helps sort through the sea of information, when you find a specific topic to zero in on. So most of the credit goes to the blogger who really helped in this regard, by narrowing my search within wikileaks itself. All of the condensed information, resources and links they provided helped me understand the story and piece it all together within a single day. I think there is a lot more to this story, and I plan on looking into it further! Thanks again for stopping by:)
