Ahmadinejad Cements Ties With Chavez, Other Leaders

CARACAS, Venezuela — The leaders of Iran and Venezuela cemented an alliance aimed at countering the United States while the Iranian president reached out to a new ally in Bolivia and declared that together, "no one can defeat us."

After being vilified during his U.N. visit this week, President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad traveled on to friendlier territory Thursday, first stopping in Bolivia — where he pledged $1 billion in investment — and then visiting Venezuela to meet President Hugo Chavez.

"Together we are surely growing stronger, and in truth no one can defeat us," the Iranian leader said through an interpreter. Apparently referring to the U.S., he said, "Imperialism has no other option: Respect the peoples (of the world) or accept defeat."

Chavez greeted the Iranian leader warmly on a red carpet in front of the presidential palace, where they both stood before microphones and let loose with rhetoric challenging Washington.

"We will continue resisting to the end in the face of imperialism," Ahmadinejad said. "And the age of imperialism has ended."

Chavez embraced the Iranian leader, calling him "one of the greatest anti-imperialist fighters" and "one of the great fighters for true peace."

“The leaders of Iran and Venezuela cemented an alliance aimed at countering the United States”

We’re banding together to counter the goodwill, bounty, freedom and generosity of the United States.

“no one can defeat us”, said the little man to the fat man. They think because they have oil they have endless power. They are wrong.

What’s up with these guys and windbreakers? Are leisure suits next? The only thing worse than a dictator is a dictator with bad taste.

I’ve been warning for years that the next war would pit Islam, China and the Latin American Marxist Bloc (including our arch-enemy Mexico)against us.
