More on Chavez

While we are on the subject of Hugo Chavez, I thought I would post these videos to show the type of madman we are dealing with there in Latin America. Perhaps it is because I just finished reading The Gathering Storm by Winston Churchill, but I find these to be eerily reminiscent of the rhetoric of pre-war Germany and Italy. Chavez even looks a little like Mussolini!

In this video, Chavez issues a direct challenge to President Bush--whom he refers to as "Mr. Danger"--calling him a donkey and a murderer, among other niceties.

Meanwhile, Venezuelan forces prepare for war. The soldiers interviewed claim they are preparing to defend their country against the US invasion--speaking as if it were a foregone conclusion. I would just like to remind everybody that Germany's re-armament before the secont world war was excused as being defensive in nature.

People who belittle my comparrisons of Hitler and Chavez might want to take a hard look at his anti-semetic leanings.

What does this have to do with missions or Brazil? As far as missions go, we have already seen that Mr. Chavez is no friend to missionaries. He is also investing heavily in Brazil, and courting the leadership to his side.

I am sorry for all the recent posts on Hugo Chavez today. I just have a recurring nightmare about a grand alliance of the Islamic nations and crackpots such as Hugo Chavez against Western Civilization as we know it, and particularly aganst Christians and Jews.
