Chavez says US plans to kill him

Hugo Chavez: "I know that I have been condemned to die"
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has said he believes the US government is planning to assassinate him.
"If they kill me, the name of the person responsible is George Bush," Mr Chavez said.

Mr Chavez - who offered no evidence to back his claim - said any attempt on his life would backfire and threatened to cut off oil supplies to America.

He was apparently reacting to growing criticism by top US officials of his left-wing government.

3. es el mismo que siempre pendejo

The BFEE will stop at nothing for oil. They will kill democratically elected leaders (unlike the election fraud that installed Bushler's military dictatorship). They will nuke any country they as they see fit. They are fascist genocidal maniacs.

5. Look what they did in Haiti,

for what reason I cannot fathom. Haiti does not even have oil there.
