Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez met Grand Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. They pledged further cooperation of "independent nations." The visit of Chavez to Tehran, Iran, followed earlier ones to Russia and Belarus. Hugo Chavez stated to Khamenei that Iran was an apt model for other nations to emulate.
Chavez said that the two nations' ties in the petroleum, gasoline, and petrochemical sectors will be expanded.
In a reference to the recent political development in various parts of Latin America where anti-American leaders have attained political control, Chavez said, "U.S. imperialism is declining, and independent countries are viewing the future with hope and optimism."
Both Venezuela and Iran are members of OPEC wherein the countries' leaders share an anti-American stance. Last month, Daniel Ortega, the president of Nicaragua, came to Iran. In the following months, Evo Morales, the president of Bolivia, is expected in Tehran.
Hugo and his godless communist hombres should lead by example and convert to Islam. Impose Sharia on Venezuela... and they will see how long they’ll last.
That is so funny. It reminded me of the line in Braveheart:
"I hope you washed your ass this morning, it's about to be kissed by a king."
Keep watching Chavez...the lesson is not over yet dunder head.
