It's quite typical, that Islamic nations, such as Iran and rich Arab Lebanese, the strongest backers of Chavez, infect their virus - their anti-Semitic hate propaganda against Catholic-practicing Capriles who is of Jewish origin... Chavez's State Official campaign has been "playing" the "Zionist imperialist" mantra... For example, in one cartoon, Capriles is dressed as a Hasidic Jew under title "Zionist," is quite telling of classic Arab twisted facts, while Hasidim are usually NOT Zionists... Then again, one click on Memri.org or Palwatch.org shows an ocean of 100% contradictory senseless cartoons by the "oppressed" malicious racist Arab world.

Study: Venezuelan anti-Semitism at new heights in race between - JTA
Sep 7, 2012 Anti-Semitism in Venezuela has spiked during the electoral race for president between a Catholic man of Jewish descent and President Hugo Chavez, according to a new report.
State media and supporters of Chavez, who has ruled the country for the past 14 years, regularly vilify his opponent, Henrique Capriles Radonski, derisively referring to his Jewish roots, a study by Tel Aviv Universitys Kantor Center for the Study of Anti-Semitism found.
This is done in a variety of methods, such as defamation, intimidation and conspiracy theories, many of which portray Capriles as a Zionist agent, and by mixing classic and neo-anti-Semitism, said the report, authored by Lidia Lerner, an expert on Latin America. A Capriles victory, it is claimed, will inevitably lead to Zionist infiltration.
The election is scheduled for October 7.
Op-Eds warning of a Zionist takeover if Capriles wins repeatedly have appeared in government-controlled media since Radonskis candidacy was announced in February, the report said. He also has been the subject of anti-Semitic cartoons
