Chavez: No plan to restore ties with Israel
Venezuelan president tells Al-Jazeera would consider matter if Israel's leaders 'stop being a genocidal elite subordinated to US'

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3694730,00.html

<snip>

"Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez says his government isn't considering restoring diplomatic ties with Israel.

Chavez told the pan-Arab TV station Al-Jazeera that he would only reconsider the matter if Israel's leaders stop being a "Genocidal elite subordinated to the United States."

Venezuela broke off relations with Israel in January to protest its offensive in the Gaza Strip.

The Venezuelan state news agency reported that Al-Jazeera asked Chavez about restoring ties and that Chavez replied: "We haven't thought about that, and nothing is seen on the horizon to re-establish relations."

Clips from the interview were shown Sunday on Venezuelan state TV as Chavez prepared to attend a summit of South American and Arab leaders in Qatar."

2. Why don't you be a chump
and tell Chaves that US is subordinated by AIPAC. I'm sure he wouldn't mind having his information corrected. :)

9. I see you have been drinking with Abe Foxman
The Venezuelan elites are the racists, as are those that support the Likud's party charter:

Likud - Platform

Settlements


The Jewish communities in Judea, Samaria and Gaza are the realization of Zionist values. Settlement of the land is a clear expression of the unassailable right of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel and constitutes an important asset in the defense of the vital interests of the State of Israel. The Likud will continue to strengthen and develop these communities and will prevent their uprooting.

11. Cognitive dissonance. Likud stands for the EVIL Jews
and neo-con types in Israel he read or heard somewhere; maybe from Obama who made the gaffe himself. So now it's stuck in his head like a tune that won't quit; over and over and over again.

Plus there has to be an EVIL JEW to hate otherwise you have to hate 'em all and that gets messy and PC.

15. Maybe from Obama?

Can you find that gaffe? Or just a chance to accuse the "schwartzen" with the Arab sounding name who is the President of America of antisemitism?

13. I had to laugh yesterday because I read one of Abe's last offerings
titled something like: "Venezuela Should Restore Relationship with Jewish Community" and was a lunatic denunciation of Chavez. The man is a menace to his own community.
