Meanwhile, CITGO petroleum owned by Hugo is continuing to lose ground in the US. Our boycott of his petroleum is working. Soon he will be forced to change the name and it’s association with himself and Venezuela.
Be vigilante and keep a sharpe eye out for any new petrol product names from Venezuela.
Our apologies to the CITGO franchise owners in America. You must now suffer for your choice. Next time, choose more wisely.
He's been cheatin' on Fidel...
Now he just needs to show he’s serious. He can do that by having his entire military and all supporting civilians at full alert, manning battle stations, 24/7 until we show up to invade.
We’re coming. Honest. Keep those positions manned. Don’t get weak. We’re coming.
Can’t make it today, sorry, busy. But we’ll be there. Maybe tomorrow? Wednesday? Next week? ... Keep those positions manned. We’ll get there. Honest.
Don’t close your eyes or try to rest! You know we’ll show up as soon as you do!
Really. Serious.
I tend to agree with this method, as I would love for America to be the place where the last drops of oil are left (at any given price).
That being said, people can click HERE if interested in boycotting Citgo and choosing an alternative supplier who uses non-Venezuelan/Mid-East supplies (or at least a lower percentage).
What is the biggest laugh about this stuff is that Hugo can spend trillions on weapons, and all that military hardware would stand, gosh, maybe a week against a cautious military invasion of his country.
I do love the imagination that these guys have. If the US rolls in, we’re not talking about another Iraq; there won’t be any huge military resistance by the population, or terrorists rolling over the borders to play. They’ll sit back, watch Hugo’s government rolled over, and then get up and go to work the next day.
It would be kinda fun to have the USS Tarawa leisurely cruise back and forth just off their coast.
Of course, I realize that his whole "preparing to fight the US" is merely a cover story, and doing so would only strengthen his position. But it's fun to think about!
Oh!! Did you see that ripple in the water?!? Was that a SEAL approaching your beach? Or just another fish jumping? Don’t know? Keep those eyes peeled! All day, all night, every day, every night.
We’re coming. Someday, maybe. Don’t get caught sleeping, or relaxing, or having fun, or earning a living or wasting time with your family.
We’re coming. Maybe. Someday. Soon?
sounds like a Hillary slogan!
1) Chavez escalates situation with USA.
2) USA claims they are a friend to Venezuela.
3) Chavez blames influence of USA for rapidly decaying conditions in Socialist Venezuela.
4) USA denies any intervention on their part.
5) Chavez orders massive punitive expeditionary forces to invade Southern United States.
6) USA State department issues 1,000,000 temporary workers permits to be dispensed at borders.
7) Venezuelan army dissolve overnight. Spanish become primary language in Texas, New Mexico, and Oklahoma next day.
But he was probably right.
Just for your edification (as this is the purpose of FR), Suriname (Dutch until 1975) and Guyana (British until 1966) are now independent countries. Only French Guiana remains a colony.
I suppose given what you wrote about Brazil, your Venezuelan friend must have objected to them not speaking Spanish which was the language of choice of all natives of Latin America and not imposed on them by colonial rulers at all.
I dunno, I’ll bet Zapatero is a really good friend of Hugo’s.
Guys! You have it all wrong!
Hugo’s military purchases are not to keep his people in line, but to invade his neighbors!
The Venezuelans and the Mexicans hate each other. Mexico once expelled the VZ consul, only a couple of years ago, and has had to take action against “accidental” incursions by Chavez’ troops into Southern Mexico. Mexico has also had to expel numerous Venezuelan “civilians” because they have actually been covert VZ military agents who were acting left-wing agitators or worse (that is, essentially builders of guerrilla cells) attempting to stir up trouble among the Indians and peasants in Southern Mexico. There have actually been some firefights with Chavez’ troops, and I think Chavez has given up on Mexico for the time being.
VZ has also been responsible for numerous encroachments against Colombia and for funding Colombian guerrillas and attempting to revive the left-wing guerrilla war that, thanks to Bush and Uribe, was fading away. No state that borders VZ or is even near it is safe.
Chavez is going to create plenty of trouble in Latin America, and I suspect will start by infiltrating and trying to take over one of the smaller neighboring states. He will probably try one that has an Islamic presence, since he is very close with Iran and his government is full of Muslims. His hero is Carlos the Jackal, the leftist terrorist who converted to Islam years ago. The Muslim who was arrested in Guyana (one of those neighboring countries) in the Fort Dix plot was on his way to Iran.
If VZ attacks anything, it will be another Latin American country, and we will find ourselves and Mexico fighting on the same side, because VZ cannot be permitted to do an anschluss maneuver in its region. Increasingly, VZ is an Iranian puppet, and we ignore this at our peril. Castro, while he was important and does hate us, is not that important anymore in the grand scheme of things in Latin America and is actually not the one behind this.
Ummmmm I think we're a tad bit out of range for those AK's. Even for the fighters. I'll worry when he can project a sustained force onto our soil.
I remember the movie: Red Dawn (HooooooYAH!) when it was revealed that a bunch of the invading forces had come across the Mexican border. THAT'S much more worrisome, especially when they're being helped by the US Congress!
Sounds like the Marxist’s Dimocrats and RINO’s here in the USA. Same crap. He will soon have the country doing a seig heil to him.
No, it's not hyperbole. But the deception from the MSM and the pols is so profound that even when you think you're wrong, even when you think you're posing the most ludicrous possible scenarios ... it turns out you're right!!
And because of the way the Shamnesty is being framed, people are under the misimpression that the Z visa is restricted to Mexicans.That couldn't be more wrong.
Any self-professed "illegal alien" of any nationality - Chinese, Russian, Iranian, Venezuelan, Nigerian, Pakistani, or even Canadian - can get a Z visa.
Even more astonishing is that there's no requirement for identification of any kind and no way to validate it in any case, given that 150+ nationalities could be applying. Do you think Mexico would give us a hand with document verification? China? Kenya? I don't think so either.
Obviously if you're a Russian mobster or Albanian heroin dealer or Paraguayan murderer or a Chinese intelligence agent or Estonian prostitute you're not going to provide accurate ID information. "Pete from Canada, age 30" will become "Emil from Denmark, age 34; "XinHau from Beijing, age 26" will become "Lau Wei from Taiwan, age 33"; "Elle from Estonia age 27" becomes "Camille from Denmark, age 25".
Worried about being caught? Don't be. There's no provision or even a method to verify your background. The alleged "criminal check" is an NCIC scan for the U.S. only (and probably Interpol). With 15 million probable applicants for the Z visa, you can be assured that USCIS won't spend any excessive time checking your history. Imagine them asking Mexico to help in verification of its alleged citizens. That would elicit a hoot, since most countries of Mexico's third world status don't keep very accurate records of anything.
Bottom line is that it will be impossible to verify 99.9 percent of all Z visa applications.
Anyone Will be able to get a Z visa, under any name and nationality they like, without fear of being caught.
Once you begin thinking along these lines it becomes clear that the Z visa plan is an insane giveaway of American identity documents, residence permits, and work authorizations to people whose identities are completely unknown. Criminals, terrorists, and spies with a bit more determination will even be able to leverage their Z visas into passports from their fake "home country".
A great plan, yes?
How long does this idiot think saber-rattling can scare his people into following his regime? Clearly they ain’t the brightest bunch on the planet but eventually they will have to figure it out.
I think it could be more serious than that. Since Bush's "Axis of Evil" speech, I've had a nightmare scenario in my mind. Subsequent events have convinced me that Iran and N. Korea are working together. Having recently read about China shipping arms into Afghanistan, I wonder at their intentions. Iran is steadily surrounding Israel. And now Russia is saber rattling again.
My nightmare is this:
In coordinated events all in one day
---N. Korea bombs Seoul
---China invades Taiwan
---Iran nukes Israel and threatens Saudi Arabia with the same if they don't ally with Iran
---Suicide bombs/dirty nukes go off all over the U.S. & Canada
---Russia, Iran and Venzuela cut oil shipments to the West
etc, etc, etc.
Why shouldn't they? They WANT war with us...we grovel endlessly before them in our delusion that they can be reasoned with. Think about it. Such an Axis could easily be convinced they could defeat the West with such a bold strategy.
