CHAVEZ SAYS FARC IS NOT "TERRORIST" WHILE BUSH AND URIBE WANT TO DROP BOMBS AND SHOOT MISSILES

Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez says that the FARC (Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia) is not a "terrorist" organization. Both George Bush and Alvaro Uribe, Colombia's president claim the FARC is indeed a "terrorist" organization.

Is this a valid reason for the United States to overthrow Chavez? Does George Bush think that he has cause to invade Venezuela or topple Chavez because Chavez was successful in negotiating with the FARC to release Consuelo Gonzalez and Clara Rojas several weeks ago?

Why must the U.S. give millions of dollars of military aid to Colombia when it is clear that military means are incapable of either solving the Colombian's problems with the FARC or securing the release of the hundreds of hostages which FARC is currently holding in the Colombian jungles?

George Bush's way is to drop bombs and shoot missiles at anyone he perceives to be his "enemy." Hugo Chavez believes in talking with the FARC and negotiating. So far Hugo Chavez's way has proven to be the right way.

Will George Bush and his pal Uribe, in their growing animosity towards Chavez, start a war against Venezuela?

BUSH SENDS CONDOLEEZA TO COLOMBIA - IS HER TRIP ANTI- HUGO CHAVEZ?

Why is Condoleeza Rice in Colombia conferring with Colombian president Alvaro Uribe? The story is that she is pushing for some sort of free trade agreement, but the suspicion arises that she is consorting with Uribe in some sort of public relations campaign aimed at Venezuelan president Hugo Chavez.

Chavez recently was instrumental in getting the FARC to release two female hostages, Clara Rojas and Consuelo Gonzalez, who had each been held for over five years. If it had been left to Uribe, the two ladies might still be captives in the Colombian jungle. Uribe believes in freeing the hostages with guns and soldiers, whereas Chavez thinks that diplomacy and talk can get the job done and the hostages released.

Bush and Cheney treat Chavez as the "enemy," and they cannot be happy to see him lauded for his good diplomatic work in freeing Gonzalez and Rojas.

So the suspicion, what is Condoleeza Rice doing in Colombia if not to stir up problems for Hugo Chavez.
