I think Castro and Chavez are, and have been working, check by jowl with the Iranian thugs..Castro for oil from Iran and Chavez because he does whatever Castro tells him to do. The mullahs bombed the Jewish Center in Bueanas Aires and have their hezbollah gangs in a number of places in Central and South America.

Many have concentrated on the Afghanistan and Iraq wars but really we have a multi-front campaign that spans contients.

There are AQ insurgents South East Asia spreading towards Australia. There are bona-fide communist governments giving safe haven to AQ in and around Venezuela and Brazil in South America. To wrap it up, AQ still has bases of operations in Africa that have never tackled-head head on since the Kenya and Tanzania bombings.

To think that AQ is purely a Middle-Eastern terrorist outfit is naive in the extreme.

Just as it is idiotic to accept the Clinton era formulation that it is not operating under state-sponsorship.
