US must respond to charges that Venezuela is potential terror hub: Chavez***US News and World Report said in a statement last week that a two-month review by the weekly newsmagazine, "including interviews with dozens of US and Latin American sources, confirms the terrorist activity." It charges that "Middle East terror groups are operating support cells in Venezuela and other locations in the Andean region."
"US officials are monitoring developments that show the South American nation is providing assistance to Islamic radicals from the Middle East, and exploring whether there are any al-Qaeda connections," it added. The magazine also said it has learned that "thousands of Venezuelan identity documents are being distributed to foreigners from Middle Eastern nations, including Syria, Pakistan, Egypt and Lebanon."***

Interesting : Chavez is, as far as I know, the only president referring to the Apocalypse.
