Venezuelan President, Hugo Chavez has his panties in a bunch once again!
Upset that Exxon has won a court order freezing billions of dollars of Venezuelan oil assets, Chavez directs his anger at Bush and the U.S. Chavez claims he will refuse to sell any oil to the US if Exxon does not submit to his terms....
From NY Times --
“The bandits of Exxon Mobil will never rob us again,” Mr. Chávez said in comments broadcast Sunday on his weekly television program. He accused Exxon, one of the largest publicly traded oil companies, and the United States of mounting a conspiracy to destabilize Venezuela.
“I speak to the American empire, because that’s the master,” Mr. Chávez said. “Continue, and you will see that we won’t send one drop of oil to the empire of the United States.” Referring to Exxon, he said, “They are imperialist bandits, white-collar criminals, corruptors of governments, overthrowers of governments.” More....
The court case stems from Chavez & Exxon battling for control over Petróleos de Venezuela, the national oil company. PDVSA finances many of Chavez's spending on food subsidies, schools and hospitals, & social programs.
Chavez, a good friend of Joe Kennedy, completed his tirade by accusing the United States & Columbia of having paramilitary squads infiltrate Venezuela to bring in weapons and traffic in cocaine.
