The seizure of the ship could become an international incident if not resolved soon. ...................Zero will probably just apologize to Chavez and the issue will be resolved.
To: mandaladon
A spokeswoman at the Venezuelan embassy in Washington said she would look into the incident...................Doesn't sound like they're in too much of a hurry

It will probably take Hugo a few more days to pack
the Cocaine shipment into special compartments in
the hull and remove all the ATF arms shipment.

“The Department of State requested that the vessel be quietly diverted to Libya, where under special security cover, the vessel was loaded in its entirety with equipment from Libyas nuclear and other WMD programs arsenal. They included specialized centrifuges used in the processing of uranium to weapons grade, equipment from a uranium conversion facility, and Libyas five SCUD-C longe-range missiles. The cargo was discharged at an undisclosed U.S. East Coast port. The Libyan cargo move was truly a spur-of-the-moment operation.”
So that’s how they got the gold out of Libya. Nukes and
scuds were just a cover.

Yeah,I was thinking something along those same lines as you were. Obama & Hugo would concoct something like this to try and influence the vote in November.

Obama will just kiss his buddy Chavez’s ass and promise to give him anything he wants.

So now Obama has his own hostage crisis during the election, just like Jimmy Carter?

Well now, don’t you understand how “efficient” Obama’s political machine thinks? You have to hold off responding to this incident until after the convention, then when his post-convention bounce (as small as it will be) begins to drop and inexorably slide south, he’ll unleash the SEALs again to save the day and rescue the crew. Voila! A new, large upswing in his attaboys for being such a tough leader. /S/
