Venezuela's President Hugo Chavez, right, and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, hug each other after Chavez was awarded the 1st grade order of the Islamic Republic of Iran during a ceremony in Tehran university in Tehran, Iran, in this Sunday, July 30, 2006 file photo. Ahmadinejad will make his first visit to Venezuela on Sunday, Sept. 17, 2006, strengthening ties with a country that has become the leading defender of Iran's nuclear ambitions on the world stage.

In a 2005 Christmas radio broadcast, Chavez referred to the Jews as "descendants of those who crucified Christ".. Yah,as if Chavez gives a rat's hindquarters about Christ or his teachings.

As far as Hugo Chavez being anti Semitic and Amadinejad wanting to destroy Israel. This translates into the USA also being in their gun sights

Hugo Chavez's hostility alarming to South Florida's Venezuelan JewsAre they South Floridians or Venezuelans? If they are Floridians why would they fear Chavez?
MY point was the headline is totally misleading.

It's a made up story with a misleading headline.

I never knew Hugo Chavez was so anti Semitic. This makes him more of a menace to USA because it cements his alliance with Amadinejad. Does this make any sense? And why Chavez's anti Semiticism can affect you?

Does Ireland have a dictator? Are they persecuting displaced Irish here in the U.S?
I ask again, why would people living in south Florida feel threatened by Chavez? Are they not U.S. citizens protected by the U.S?

Amadinejad likely requires this sort of rhetoric and probably actual followup if there is to be an alliance between Venezuela and Iran.
This isn't just the usual jaw-jaw from the *unaligned*. There is a real, hot WWII or WWIV brewing and Iranian missiles stationed in Venezuela could each the USA.
It is also, of course, from the Muslim POV, a religious war and whatever Jews are left in Venezuela are in danger. Chavez needs an internal enemy as well as external enemies to keep his poor masses riled.
I wonder how the Catholic majority in Venezuela has reacted to the Pope's comments and the Muslim response? Is there a Muslim conversion attempt going on in Venezuela? Is that next?

I'd think they regard themselves as Venezuelans living in exile, who still care about their homeland, as well as the Jewish people who remain there, many of whom they no doubt know or are even related.
To: raybbr
Read the article: This refers to Venezuelans of Jewish background now living in South Florida.
"Ethnic" politics are a reality in this country, and have been for over 150 years (at least).
