Iran, Venezuela to Expand Defense Ties

Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa Mohammad Najjar, heading a high-ranking defense delegation, arrived in Caracas on Monday to promote Tehran-Venezuela relations.

During his three-day visit, Mohammad Najjar is slated to attend meetings with senior Venezuelan political and defense officials.

The visit to Caracas by the Iranian defense minister is the first since the 1979 Islamic Revolution in Iran.

SNIPPET: “President Obama’s recent handshake with U.S.-bashing despot Hugo Chavez has occasioned much controversy about the proper focus of American policy toward Venezuela.”

SNIPPET: “The maneuvering of China, Russia and Iran in the region is a blatant attempt to form a bloc to compete with the United States. The international positions of China and Russia are indistinguishable on the world scene, and the two have very close military and political ties. Both countries are among the staunchest backers of Iran, Sudan, Syria, and other rogue nations, eager to embrace any rival of the West.

Thanks for the link, Cindy.

This is a no brainer for O and we can expect him to quickly take action to protect our nation.

1. The U.S. has credible evidence Iran is introducing anti-U.S. war supplies into several ME countries.
2. JFK cited the Monroe Doctrine as providing a basis for his right to go nose-to-nose with Russia during the Cuban crisis.
3. The U.S. has pointed to the Monroe Doctrine as providing justification in several more recent South America interventions.

We can expect a strong announcement from the Oval Office anyday now.
