>yes im sure the venezuelan citizens love having all their >land redistributed so that chavez can have ultimate control >over the entire land.
the people have clearly benefitted from Chavez's leadership... that's why he WON A LANDSLIDE VICTORY IN A DEMOCRATIC ELECTION. so are you going to play the role of benevolent American colonialist and decide the Venezuelans don't know what's good for Venezuela?
>dont let the communist propoganda fool >you, this isnt about giving power back to the people, its >about chavez stealing rich people's land and taxing the shit >outta other poor citizens he hands it over too so that he >can have control over them.
question for you... what's the Venezuelan tax rate? and you talk like Chavez is a dictator or an absolute monarchy- which is far from the truth.
>and the last time i checked, >political activists such as al-queda were killing innocent >people who have nothing to do with our govt.
we're talking about Venezuela, not al-Qaeda... and even al-Qaeda is a reactionary group that sees itself reacting "in-kind" to US aggression

“Stand out firmly for Justice as witness before God, even against yourselves, against your kin and against your parents, against people who are rich or poor. Do not follow your inclinations or desires lest you deviate from Justice. Remember, God is the best of Protectors and well acquainted with all that you do.” -Qur’an 4:135
"Don't be deceived when they tell you things are better now. Even if there's no poverty to be seen because the poverty's been hidden. Even if you ever got more wages and could afford to buy more of these new and useless goods which industries foist on you and even if it seems to you that you never had so much, that is only the slogan of those who still have much more than you. Don't be taken in when they paternally pat you on the shoulder and say that there's no inequality worth speaking of and no more reason to fight because if you believe them they will be completely in charge in their marble homes and granite banks from which they rob the people of the world under the pretence of bringing them culture. Watch out, for as soon as it pleases them they'll send you out to protect their gold in wars whose weapons, rapidly developed by servile scientists, will become more and more deadly until they can with a flick of the finger tear a million of you to pieces." --Jean Paul Marat, 18th Century French Visionary (and revolutionary), murdered in his bathtub by Royalist Charlotte Corday
