Commies are uniting.

During their first meeting in the Kremlin five years ago, Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez told Putin, "My brother, we will go on together and forever."

Chavez's latest visit to Russia, his fourth, begins in Volgograd on Tuesday, making him Putin's most frequent guest among South American leaders.

Chavez previously made official visits to Moscow in May 2001 and November 2004, and flew in for a working visit in October 2001.

"fellow maverick"

Is that code for dictator?

Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez said on Tuesday he had forged a strategic alliance to stand up to U.S. imperialism with fellow maverick Belarussian President Alexander Lukashenko.

Gosh, that's nice. That and a dollar will buy you a cup of coffee.

[M. Espinola]

It must be the new buzz term in the liberal mass media. They love Hugo.

[M. Espinola]

This is really something, two communist tyrants teaming up against US. Sounds like nothing has changed in terms of our enemies showing their true colours (red).

[Valin]

I'm going to go waaaay out on a limb and predict that they'll try and get Castro to join them.
Bold and reekless that's me!

Yup.
That's Al Reuters doing their normal shilling for psychotic dictators and terrorists.

The type of relationship Assad and Chavez share with Tehran has some interesting similarities. Personally, I expected militancy from both but neither shows willingness to make a commitment to die for what they are doing. It’s early to make this assessment but Assad has demonstrated he’s significantly weaker than his opposition, the Muslim Brother Hood that subscribes to an ideology willing pay the ultimate price. The Israelis have exposed weakness among the West’s enemies on many levels beyond the ME. They showed that Chavez and Assad don’t actually believe in what they are doing! Both have been caught up in a series of successes based on countering globalization. IMO, this means neither need to die. What it means is they need to be deposed (potentially killed in the process) so the more powerful latent anti-West forces within their communities can be exposed. Once those are revealed, let the bullets fly.

Chavez and Assad are in the way. Figure out a way to bump them in order to take care of the real problems of the day. These are the lessons of Hamas and Hezbollah democratic successes. Thanks go to Israel for relaxing and allowing the world to learn them.

The ant and the piss-ant roar in harmony, just to be heard on their own little temporary ant-hills.

Ho-hum.

"Venezuela, Belarus seal psychotic dictators alliance."

Proper correction noted :)

In this case it's left over 'red' ants, demonstrating the Cold War never really ended.

[M. Espinola]

Fidel is the one who most likely got those two rodents together. Let's not forget Col Putin in all of this.

[M. Espinola]

That's a very well stated overview.

Behind a lot of the public posturing of Chavez and Tehran's Islamic thugs is the fact their anti-Western nations are both members of OPEC. The oil weapon has been discussed as an economic back door attack among the broadening Axis of Evil in case some of their key cohorts are threatened with being overthrown, killed or captured.

In terms of Assad, the chemical weapons factor (Saddam's former WMD) would push Israel to take swift and devastating counter measures directly against Damascus.

"Our countries must keep their hands at the ready on the sword"
he better keep his on the toilet paper - could come handy.

The enemy also read the same book and is following the story to the letter.
