Chavez to Hold Bush Liable if He's Harmed

CARACAS, Venezuela - President Hugo Chavez declared Friday that if anything happens to him it will be President Bush's fault.

Chavez brought up Robertson's remarks while addressing supporters at the presidential palace, saying "he has expressed the desire of the elite that governs the United States."

"If something happens to me, the responsible one will be George W. Bush," said Chavez, who has repeatedly accused the Bush administration of plotting to overthrow him.

The United States has repeatedly denied having any intentions to try to topple Chavez or harm him.

Chavez's comments were his sharpest since Robertson called for his assassination Monday on his TV show "The 700 Club," saying the United States should "take him out" because Chavez poses a danger to the region.

Robertson later issued an apology, saying he spoke out of frustration. U.S. State Department spokesman Sean McCormack on Tuesday called Robertson's remarks "inappropriate," but stopped short of condemning them.

You're not going to be filing any lawsuits where you're going, Hugo.

He's a monster. Of course it would be preferable if he disappeared. Imagine Fidel Castro sitting on the top of the world's fourth largest oil supply and you'll understand the danger. We face a hostile regime in Venezuela allied with many of America's adversaries. Sometimes I think as Pat Robertson does, some preemptive action might make the world safer. No need to endanger tens of thousands of American lives in uniform to get it done.

EL TIRANICIDIO EN LA DOCTRINA SOCIAL DE LA IGLESIA CATOLICA

NO HAY NADA DE CONTROVERSIAL EN EL COMENTARIO DEL PASTOR EVANGÉLICO, PAT ROBERTSON, SOBRE EL EVENTUAL TIRANICIDIO DEL GENOCIDA DEL PUEBLO VENEZOLANO, HUGO CHAVEZ.

EN LA TRADICIÓN; DE LA IGLESIA, EL TIRANICIDIO ES MORALMENTE JUSTIFICABLE DE ACUERDO CON LA DOCTRINA SOCIAL DE SANTO TOMÁS DE AQUINO. CHÁVEZ HA DECLARADO SU FIRME PROPÓSITO DE ESTABLECER EN VENEZUELA UN REGIMEN GENOCIDA SIGUIENDO EL MODELO Y DIRECTRICES DE FIDEL CASTRO.

¿QUE VAN A ESPERAR, A QUE CHÁVEZ SUPERE LOS 20,000 FUSILADOS POR CASTRO Y QUE MÁS DE MEDIO MILLON DE VENEZOLANOS SUFRAN EL PRESIDIO POLITICO COMO LO HAN SUFRIDO LOS CUBANOS EN LAS MAZMORRAS DE LA ISLA PRISION DE CUBA???

IGUAL QUE HITLER, CHÁVEZ FUE ELECTO POR EL PUEBLO PARA DESPUÉS DECLARARSE EN DICTADOR. CASTRO OCULTÓ SUS PLANES DE ESTABLECER UN RÉGIMEN ESTALINISTAS HASTA HABERSE CONSOLIDADO EN EL PODER. SIN EMBARGO, AL IGUAL QUE HITLER EXPUSO SUS IDEAS DIABOLICAS EN MEIN KAMP, CHÁVEZ HA DECLARADO PÚBLICA Y REPETIDAMENTE SU FIRME PROPÓSITO DE ESTABLECER UNA DICTADURA COMUNISTA NO SÓLO EN EL MODELO DEL RÉGIMEN CUBANO, SINO QUE DE HECHO ENTREGÓ EL CONTROL DEL PAÍS A CASTRO Y ESTA USANDO SUS ESBIRROS PARA TENER AHERROJADO AL PUEBLO VENEZOLANO.

¡SI HITLER, STALIN, MAO, CASTRO O CHAVEZ HUBIERAN SIDO ULTIMADOS, CUANTA SANGRE Y SUFRIMIENTO SE HUBIERA AHORRADO LA HUMANIDAD!!!!!

TAN JUSTIFICADO ES EL TIRANICIDIO QUE EL PROPIO PAPA PÍO XII APOYÓ EL INTENTO POR UN GRUPO DE MILITARES ALEMANES (CATÓLICOS Y PROTESTANTE) DE ASESINAR A HITLER.

SANTO TOMAS DE AQUINO BASA SU SANCION AL TIRANICIDIO COMO EL MENOR DE DOS MALES. ESA ES TAMBIÉN LA BASE DE LA IGLESIA EN REFERENCIA AL PACIFISMO. UNA PERSONA PUEDE SER PACIFISTA, PERO NO UN GOBIERNO. ANTE UN ATAQUE UNA PERSONA SE PUEDE DEJAR MATAR, PERO UN GOBIERNO TIENE LA OBLIGACION ABSOLUTA DE DEFENDER A SUS CIUDADANOS
ANTE LA AGRESIÓN. UN PACIFISTA PUEDE MORALMENTE NO RESISTIR LA AGRESION LLEGANDO A PAGAR CON SU PROPIA VIDA; PERO NO PUEDE MORALMENTE PERMITIR EL ASESINATO DE UN SER INOCENTE SIN TRATAR DE DEFENDER LA VICTIMA.

ESOS SON PRINCIPIOS FUNDAMENTALES DE LA IGLESIA CATÓLICA QUE HAN DEJADO CAER EN EL OLVIDO ANTE LOS EMBATES DEL PENSAMIENTO TOTALITARIO DE LO QUE DEBE SER LO POLITICAMENTE CORRECTO AUNQUE SEA MORALMENTE INCORRECTO.

The Tyrannicide and the Catholic Church.

There is nothing improper about the commentaries made by the Evangelical preacher, Pat Robertson, referring to the possible tyrannicide of the Venezuelan dictator, Hugo Chavez.

Tyrannicide has been sanctioned as morally compatible with the teachings of the Catholic Church, based on the social doctrine of St. Thomas Aquinas. Chavez has reaffirmed his intentions of establishing in Venezuela a genocidal regime following the Cuban model and the commands of Fidel Castro.

What are we going to wait for?, Allow Chavez to surpass Castro’s dreadful record of 20,000 shot by firing squads, and for more than half million of Venezuelans to suffer political imprisonment as the Cubans have suffered in Castro’s dungeons inside the Island prison of Cuba.

Chavez, like Hitler, was elected democratically only to become a dictator later. Castro kept well hidden his aims of establishing a Stalinist regimen in Cuba until he consolidated this power over the Cuban people. But, as Hitler exposed his diabolic plan in “Mein Kamp”, Chavez has no only openly and publicly bragged about his plans of imposing a communist regimen following the Cuban model, but he has put Venezuela under Castro’s control using his thugs and repressive apparatus to keep subjugated the people of Venezuela.

If Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Castro, Chavez’s life had been terminated, how many lives would have been saved and how much suffering humanity would have been spared.

In fact, tyrannicide is so justified that His Holiness Pius XII gave his approval for the plot by a group from the German’s army intelligence service planning to kill Hitler.

For St. Thomas Aquinas, tyrannicide is to opt for the lesser of two evils. Pacifism is a morally correct personal option, but is an option that is morally unaceptable for the state. A person might choose not to resist an aggression to the extreme of loosing his life, but a government has the duty to defend his people.

A pacifist might loose his life without offering resistance; but he cannot impassible allow in his presence the murder of an innocent person. Those are basic principles of Catholic teachings that are being ignored in the middle of the assault of the totalitarian correct ideological movement where political correct positions prevail even though they might be morally incorrect options.
