THE CLOSE LINKS
OF HUGO CHAVEZ WITH THE INTERNATIONAL DRUG
TRAFFICKERS OF THE FARC
CHAVEZ SHOULD
REMEMBER THAT MANUEL NORIEGA WAS SENTENCED TO
30 YEARS IN PRISON FOR SIMILAR CHARGES
THE
Interpol’s FORENSIC report
on the computer files seized from the Revolutionary
Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) provides
overwhelming evidence of close links between the
terrorists and Hugo Chávez. "There was no tampering
with or altering of any of the data contained in the
user files by any of the Colombian law-enforcement
authorities following their seizure on March 1,"
Interpol Secretary-General Ronald Noble said in a
statement released in Bogotá.
The report was laughed off by Chávez as a
''circus,'' as he called the members of the prestigious
international agency a "Mafioso group." In fact,
Reyes’ computer files were corroborated in a matter
of days. In San Jose, Costa Rica, police found $480,000 of the FARC's drug and kidnapping profits precisely where
the files said they were hidden. And outside Bogotá,
the files showed police where 30 kilograms of
nonenriched uranium were concealed. In addition:
The FARC gave Chávez $150,000 while in jail for his
failed Venezuelan coup of 1992. As the President of
Venezuela, Chávez
promised $300 million and oil supply to the FARC in
2007; facilitated arms sales including
surface-to-air missiles to the FARC; provided safe
havens for the guerrillas in Venezuelan territory;
and conspired with top guerrilla leaders to overthrow
the democratically elected government of Alvaro Uribe.
These are gross violations of the Organization
of American States charter and U.N. Security Council
resolutions that prohibit safe havens or money for
terrorist groups. Despite the Interpol's
incriminating findings, the Secretary General of the
OAS, José Miguel Insulza, has not paid any attention to
the report. It seems that he doesn’t want to offend
his friend and benefactor Hugo Chávez. The
Secretary
appears now more concerned with running for president in
Chile in 2009 than running the OAS.
In 1989, general Manuel Noriega, 72, the former dictator
of the Republic of Panama was ousted by a U.S. military invasion
after his regime became linked to Colombian
cocaine-cartels. After he was captured, he was
charged and found guilty of international drug
trafficking and money laundering. A few weeks later,
he was sentenced to 30 years in prison. Now that
irrefutable evidence has been found that lieutenant
colonel Hugo Chavez
has established close links with the terrorists and
drug traffickers of the FARC, isn't it time that the
Venezuelan lieutenant colonel joins the Panamanian general as his cell
mate?
