I am deeply disappointed that our aircraft had the audacity to fly over Chavez’s territory without having the decency to pay him the respect of a 2000 pound ordinance.

Spying on you is the precedence to boxing you in. Our apologies. Further “apologies” to follow...

Next time, don’t be rude to Hugo ... drop a gift.

Don’t mind us. We’re just passing through and taking a few pictures.

A US S-3 aircraft conducting counter-drugs operations lost navigational situational awareness causing it to fly into Venezuelan airspace off the mainland coast

And I've got a great old bridge in Brooklin for sale - make you a real good deal!

Who knows the motive, but the S-3 fer sure wasn't "lost".

"A US S-3 aircraft conducting counter-drugs operations lost navigational situational awareness causing it to fly into Venezuelan airspace off the mainland coast," the statement added.

Well, if we are going to violate their airspace anyway, send something with teeth. (Although the S-3 can carry missiles and thus presumably bombs as well, it's not, AFAIK, equipped for precision bombing that would allow putting a 500 lb bomb in Hugo's left ear.

Quit the pussyfooting about, and stop ALL export of Venezuelan oil by sea. Complete export blockade. Watch the rats squeal, and then ask Chavez how he likes being cut off.

I’ll bet there would be a putsch within a month, with the socialists on the short end of the stick for a change.
