Thank you, Callmejoe. I always look forward to your posts. You seem to have a real grasp of international affairs.
Do you know if the twitter info of Venezuelan troops landing in Iran is true?.....or just a rumor?
Hi. Thanks.
Saw that thing on Venezuela a couple hours ago but couldn’t find anything that confirmed it. Hard to confirm eyewitness reports on the ground when they are constraining and ejecting media. Chavez was being bombastic in support of Ahmadinejad (saw a link somewhere on that twitter feed). But nothing so far on the troops.
There are more eyewitness reports of Palestinian Hamas and Lebanese Hezbollah imported as street muscle to do the dirty work. Would be nice if there were some youtube pics of them but completely understand why a college student wouldn’t want to get close enough to get a good look at their shoulder patches. No sense in being easy target pratice for those thugs.
Like the bumper sticker says:
“If you can read this . . . you are too close”
