If Castro and his protege, Hugo Chavez are successful with their goal, the south American continent will be the new Soviet Union and Chavez will be the next Stalin.
So far, the US has not taken this threat very seriously.

I read this excellent WSJ article this morning and am glad to see it shared w. FReepers.
I too think that Bolton's accuracy on the situation in Latin America - and his frustration with the left-leaning "analysts" at State that hid this from the light of day for years - is behind the attacks on him by the Dems and leftists. I think this is even more responsible for their Bolton-hatred than their fears about his attitude to the UN. Castro is their boy, and Chavez is his prophet, and they are furious that Bolton disagrees.

IMO, Venezuela is more of a threat to the US than was Iraq.

He also told me that Chávez envisions an axis of power linking Brasilia, Montevideo and Buenos Aires. Sad.

Things are going to get worse before they get better. The next "elections" in Venezuela will be telling.

just as castro was aging, and with less influence than he'd had all of his career, along comes chavez to reinvigorate him.
chavez had ties to china, brazil, cuba, n korea, iran, etc.
no doubt the bush administration is going to need to turn its attention to this hemisphere.

Bravo for Bolton sounding the alarm!

Connecticut Sen. Chris Dodd - a liberal who boasts a spotless record of being on the wrong side of history in Latin America - and his fellow Democrats yearn for engagement with the diabolical Fidel CastroMy bold. O'Grady is right on, as usual.
