Hugo Chavez Dead at 58.

[EagleSmack]

He had nothing on Saddam Hussein!

Saddam scores 100% in leadership ballot | World news | guardian.co.uk

He won 100% of the vote!

So why did the CIA back out of the coup? They realized he was liked and there would be American blood spread far and wide across Venezuela and South America because of it?

Oh brother. Not you too.

 

[petros]

I can see where he was a pain in the *** to US S. American policy but he wasn't evil.

 

[EagleSmack]

He just had a big mouth. Guys like Chavez need a boogeyman... Castro taught him that. With all his ranting he still sold us oil and we still bought it.

Ever since Obama took office he became a lot less relevant in the U.S. The rhetoric against the U.S meant very little because the Democrats are in charge.

 

[petros]

Nah he knew all about "hyemony" and didn't tolerate it especially after the helicopter ride/failed CIA coup.

 

[EagleSmack]

Yeah I know... all Venezuelans love him... it had to be the CIA... per usual.

::sigh::

 

[petros]

The wouldn't look so guilty if the didn't admit to it.

::sigh::

 

[EagleSmack]

I am sure the NET has plenty of info on the boogeyman during the coup.

They can't put anything on the internet that isn't true.

::sigh::

Bongjour!

Venezuela coup linked to Bush team | World news | The Observer

Elliot Abrams, who gave a nod to the attempted Venezuelan coup, has a conviction for misleading Congress over the infamous Iran-Contra affair.

Nice!

CIA says U.S. knew of Venezuela coup plot - Baltimore Sun

"A CIA spokeswoman contended that the agency played no role in the coup and was merely collecting information about political events in Venezuela for top U.S. officials. She said it was up to those officials and not the CIA to determine what to do with the information.
"The CIA was simply doing what it is we do, in terms of analyzing events and providing policy-makers with our best estimate of the events as they unfold," said the spokeswoman, who declined to be named. She added that alerting Chavez to the impending coup "would suggest we would meddle in the affairs of another nation."


psst... try not to move the goal post. Thanks in advance

Now that is beyond hysterical. Interfering in the affairs of other nations is what they do.

Operation Zamora... in 1992. Chavez's failed attempt? You do understand that was Chavez's failed coup right?

A little mixed up Petros? Time lines askew?

Geez.

Now that is beyond hysterical. Interfering in the affairs of other nations is what they do.

The comment itself is hysterical I agree.

However the post was in response to another post so you need to keep up with the thread in order to get it...got it?

That bolded statement would break any bull**** meter, lol. It does show one thing though, you don't have a ****ing clue as to how your own country works, let alone the rest of the world.

See what I mean about dumber, you forgot to support your fellow turd by saying his post was perfectly correct in every detail, especially this part, "would suggest we would meddle in the affairs of another nation."

See what I mean about dumber...

I didn't think you could be any dumber, but here we are, with you admitting it no less.
