If the Venezuelans were smart, they'd bury their Migs underground, like Saddam did, before the U.S. went in. Either way, they lose.

The Venezualans will not go up against the US, but will us weapons to bully and build a greater empire in S. America. This should not be allowed to go forward. There is no reason for any country in S. America to feel threatened, any weapon is for offense only.

Chavez is trying to procure 1 million Kalashnikovs. And with a factory making Kalashnikovs, they will reach 1 million by the end of 2007. This does not include new Kalashnikovs for Cuba or Bolivia, either.

If venezuela gets Nicaragua on board (Ortega), they can take Mexico. With the help of Russia and China, they could try something stupid. (Anyone see Red Dawn?)

I think Chavez has his eye on his neighboring countries. He knows he has the oil to finance his ambitions. I don't think we'll stand by and let him do it. That's how we'll eventually be up against them.

"If you can't train your pilots, if you can't give them proper flying time and combat skills the most expensive aircraft in the world is nothing more than a radar lock target. Venezuala can purchase all the MiG's they want. It doesn't mean they have a real air force."

Against the US OK. What about against South Americans?

True, but it is one more step towards real problems.

By then we will have President Clinton. Did you hear GW's comments about her today? Sounded like a near endorsement. I don't know what the deal is with politicians, they act like enemies, then pal around behind the scenes. Actually I have an idea, but it pigeonholes me as a KOOK by Limbaugh.

AFAIK, that was the dialog when the US shot down those two Libyan planes...

The Russians need to make money somehow, and we can shoot them all down in 10 minutes with a couple of F-22s!
