It's tempting to say that if Chavez hates CNN and Hollywood that much, he can't be all bad. But in fact he is all bad, and becoming increasingly dangerous. He really does need to be taken out, and soon.
Good--let him sell his jets. It'll be all the easier to obliterate his a$$ when the time comes.
"Chavez accused the U.S. of breaking a contract to supply parts for Venezuela's fleet of 21 F-16 fighters and pressuring other countries from helping to maintain them. Israeli media reported last month that Israel canceled a lucrative deal to upgrade the warplanes under American pressure."
1. Hopefully our deals have an escape clause in the event of the purchasing country turning into a socialist dictatorship.
2. Israel shouldn't have to be pressured - they should know better.
...and the horse you rode in on, buddy.
Maybe this is the start of the Left coming out AGAINST Hollywood. Wouldn't that be a conundrum?
hmmmm......let's see.... a turd rate dictator sends planes we built (you know they're not the top of the line stuff), with no combat experience pilots having minimum air time to another turd world country to threaten combat experienced pilots in top of the line fighters who know every nut and bolt on their opponents aircraft. Oh yeah some threat.
Dear Hugo: Please do it. We would like to level Castro's palaces and fish him up from his spiderhole and be done with it. We are sick of the bearded beast. Please ... just do it.
Yeah. Doesn't that idiot know we could own him if wanted to, TODAY. Why doesn't he just stfu, and leave well enough alone??
He's talking about communism, right?
Chavez is a lunatic. He's a lunatic with an inferiority complex and he keeps feeling ignored. Dunno if that makes him dangerous or not.
Whenever we sell military hardware to ANYONE, it should be equipped with a hidden self destruct feature that we (our military, that is) can activate. Otherwise we are likely to end up facing equipment as good as our own!
I'm sure they will be able to get parts also./sarcasm
I always thought that we should put in a fail-safe system with all the planes we sell so that they can be disabled in situations like this....anyone listening?
I'll bet the electronics have a secret back door that will allow our military to disable them if the need ever arose.
I wonder if that batch included the "remote destruction" option.
If I didn't know Chavez was an insane megalomaniac before now, this delusional thinking would clue me in pretty quick.
I'm shaking in my boots.
