Report alleges terrorist rebels trained in Venezuela at military bases: Evidence strong for Hugo Chavez support of terrorists

Topics: Terrorism

Hugo Chavez is more than a loud mouthed leftist leader. This artilce appears to provide ample evidence for him to also be labeled as a terrorist.

An Ecuadorean military intelligence report alleges that leftists from Ecuador and seven other Latin American nations received guerrilla training in Venezuela this year from backers of President Hugo Chávez.

The report does not link Chávez personally to the training in explosives, weapons and urban guerrilla tactics. But it notes that part of the training took place in two Caracas military bases, one used by the army reserves and another that houses the Defense Ministry.

And in a concluding section, it says that backers of the Venezuelan president, ``with covert support from the government of Hugo Chávez . . . have strengthened incipient subversive movements.''

AFter all, if he supports terrorists, provides haven for terrorists, and allows training for terrorists in his country - especially at his military bases, any reasonable person could only conclude that Hugo Chavez is a loud mouthed leftist leader that is also a terrorist - worthy of being neutralized!

I'm not suggesting a Pat Robertson here, but I am suggesting that if ever there was a leader who the U.S. should work toward being legally voted out of office - that guy is Hugo Chavez.
