Chavez is an around guy...Oil to the poor...and "blow" to the rich...
Great post Dallas59! Alia; thanks for the ping.
A combined Mexican Left Watch and Latin American Left Watch ping going out here. You can read the article as it is posted above and get the full story. I've examined the
El Universal (Mexico City) story Alek Boyd uses and there are really no other pertinent details to provide about the story, since there is no mention of who may be behind the shipment, which is what we are really interested in seeing.
What is particularly interesting about this piece of news however is that this regular Caracas - Mexico City flight has been used to ship large amounts of cocaine in the past, including shipments in which Mexico's leftist PRD Party was implicated,
a matter we have discussed before (see "Comments," paragraph 4). VCrisis.com has also tracked those connections in the past as well, which I am sure is behind Alek Boyd's decision to post the news.
I will try to keep an eye on
El Universal to see if they follow up on this further. They've done a very good job of reporting the Venezuelan-Mexican Left drug connections in the past.
Mexico seizes a ton of Venezuelan coke? It will be on the streets of America in less than a week.
