Chavez Smells the Dogs of War

Chavez Smells the Dogs of War
T.D McDonough

The war drums can be faintly heard across Latin America with the arch nations of Columbia and Venezuela flexing their might. The U.S. sponsored Colombian President Alvaro Uribe recently betrayed Chavez during his negotiations with the left wing FARC rebels, before making allegations against the Venezuelan premier. There is some lingering suspicion which suggests that Uribe, whispered to from Washington, is playing the aggressor in the hope of sparking a conflict that could justify U.S. intervention against Venezuela. In response, Chavez has signed a deal with China to purchase K-8 fighter jets.

“The government of Colombia is capable of provoking a war with Venezuela to justify a US intervention in Venezuela,” said President Chavez, earlier this week.

Of course, Venezuela is a threat to the spread of global Yankee capitalism and a further testament, like Cuba, to the effectiveness of Socialism in the modern world. In early 2002, the U.S. attempted to include Chavez and Venezuela in it’s misguided ‘Axis of Evil’ in the hope of drawing Chavez’s nation into the ‘War on Terror’. The move received global condemnation.

Viva Chavez!
