Hmm, I doubt think that President Carter will provide Venezuela with reactors.

You see, their country doesn't have the adequate long-range missile technology to match a well-running nuclear power program. The only way around that problem is to have one of our defense contractors help Venezeula boot-strap their unknown-before-now satellite delivery projects.

To give a dictator access to nuclear energy without the means to deliver its "by-products" is just plain mean and unfair. It's downright cruel if that dictator happens to live in America's back yard. [/sarcasm]

No, we won't build a couple of nuclear reactors for them.

However the French and Germans will gladly help them, as they are about to lose their best two customers, Iraq and Iran.

We know that every country that floats on a bed of oil needs nuclear reactors to produce cheap electricity, right?

With Jimmy's help, Chavez could have nuclear weapons about 2010. Just after he gets another Nobel Peace Prize for endangering America and the rest of the world like he did in North Korea.
