Jump To Comment: 1 2 3 4 5 6it is outrageous what´s happening in our beloved country. Opposition people instead of giving comments to support family and friends already are criticizing this man´s job. I fear more things like this will happen in our country, people are very upset. I heard the news last nite it was surreal. The problem is they don´t seem to take this seriously, in the crime scene, last night, there were dozens of people, the vice president, the electoral council director, even I could have been there. It is an act that needs, again, to bring the eyes of the wolrd over our nation, we don´t need more violence in our coasts. By the way, I bet there´s some influence from that evel land from the north in this acts. Condoliza already said "We might need to reconsider tha Venezuelan case". reconsidere my BALLS!!!!
sorry
Salud y Anarquía muchachos.
Ok the other link has pictures but one must register there, this newspaper has free access.
Just ten days ago, the popular prosecutor announced that he was ready to finish the indictments of almost 400 organizers of the abortive 2002 coup in that country. The CIA is widely believed to have been the author of this coup attempt – the public behavior of the Bush administration during the brief coup did much to reinforce this theory.
One would hope Eeeeky is not suggesting that
the defenders of the free world have been involved in murderous activities in Venezuela.
Similar smear tactics were tried to suggest that the old CI of A were up to no good in Chile ,Honduras and quite a few other places in Central and South America. Never really felt the evidence was credible myself I always felt hard evidence like that used to prove Saddam had WMD is what is needed in these cases.
Anyone with evidence of wrongdoing by the Agency prove it.

....while the Bush administration has been ignoring the region over the past four years, political conditions have seriously deteriorated in several key countries -- and the prospect is of still worse developments, especially if U.S. neglect continues.
The likely focal point of trouble is Venezuela, a country of 25 million that supplies the United States with 13 percent of its oil. In August, after months of heavy-handed governmental actions to influence the outcome, President Hugo Chavez survived a recall referendum; since then his supporters have gained control of 21 of 23 states, as well as the capital, in local elections. Those triumphs have prompted the erratic former military rebel to accelerate what he calls his "Bolivarian revolution" -- a push toward authoritarian rule at home and a deepening alliance abroad with Cuban leader Fidel Castro and other antidemocratic movements.
[....]
It is difficult for the United States to respond to Mr. Chavez, in part because he has adopted Mr. Castro's practice of portraying the United States as an enemy bent on imperial intervention in Venezuela. Mr. Bush's choice for secretary of state, Condoleezza Rice, was quoted recently as describing Mr. Chavez as "a real problem" and saying that "the key there is to mobilize the region to both watch him and be vigilant about him and to pressure him when he makes moves in one direction or another. We can't do it alone." That sounds like a wise policy; once she takes office, Ms. Rice should end the administration's passivity toward this important region and pursue it.
today is his second, he has announced security measures in line with the security policy suggestions of the "alliance of civilisations" and a prompt investigation. He spoke of last week's terrorist action in Venezuela whilst visiting the M11 memorial in Madrid.
No-one's touching him while he's in this house.
