Hugo Chavez, in no uncertain terms, has warned the Bushites he will use the oil weapon against the United States if Bush attacks Venezuela, America's fourth-largest oil exporter.
"[I]f Mr. Bush is possessed with the madness of trying to blockade Venezuela, or worse for them, to invade Venezuela in response to the desperate song of his lackeys... sadly not a drop of petroleum will come to them from Venezuela," Hugo Chavez recently told supporters, according to AFP/Reuters.
Is Chavez paranoid?
Hardly.
Recall the CIA attempted coup against him in 2002. |
