Chavez stops working with DEA - says they are spies

http://www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/la-fg-briefs8.4aug08,0,615438.story?coll=la-home-world


Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez accused the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration of using its agents for espionage and said his nation was suspending cooperation with the agency.

Chavez criticized U.S. policy on drugs, saying that although the United States was the world's top consumer of drugs, its government was doing little to lessen consumption. He acknowledged that Venezuela was a major transit point for Colombian cocaine moving to the U.S. and Europe, but he said his country's armed forces had made advances against trafficking.

U.S. Ambassador William Brownfield said last week that only drug traffickers would benefit from a suspension of Venezuela's work with the DEA.

of Hugo Chavez. He is such a man for the masses.....he gives the finger to the Thugs in the Bush Crime Family. Way to Go Hugo!! The Bush Crime Family has been reeking havoc down there, now I hope they are kicked out of the Country. BTW, if you buy Citgo Gas, you can be "pretty sure" you are investing in Venezuelan Oil vs. Bloody Middle-Eastern Oil. Go ahead DU'ers, stick your finger in Bushco's Eye:

Here are some links on why we should "BuyCott" Citgo:
