    Good for Capriles, ending relations with Iran would help Venezuela rejoin the real world!!!!

    Good luck Henrique for the 7th.

    Hopefully disconnect Venezuela from the Iran, will stop the building of missile bases in northern Venezuela.
    Hope the Gringos are listening to him.

    That's a funny post: do you not realise that Venezuela has been unable to run the tractor plant properly since February this year.

    The blockade on Iran means they cannot export the parts, even if Chavez offers payment in USD.

    So I don't think the workers are working anyway. Dealing with Diablo will get his arse burnt.

    There are no missile bases being built in Venezuela. This is pure hype by the Miami thugs to build up hysteria and set up conditions for intervention. No one in the region is buying this, even Colombia. (Did you hear that President Santos has Cancer, operable Thank God. I wonder whether the cancer dose meant for Chavez from the CIA was given to the wrong man. You know, Oh you are from Argentina, I would love to go there and visit Rio de Janeiro).
    ChrisR (#) Whare do you get your information? What blockade? Iranian ships are enntering and leaving their harbors at will.
    Your comment is based on articles published in February. None of this is happening at this time.
    Mmmm. I don't hear Mr. Capriles complaining about Mercosur in his specches.

    @2 This is rich. “Here is $20. I am not going to give it to you.” “THEIF! HOMEWRECKER!”

    I suspect that Capriles is also no doubt responsible for starving children in North Korea too.

    If Iran would abandon its nuclear program (or... ahem.. open it ALL up for inspections) would honor the votes of its electorate (you know and not keep the person who allegedly got second or even third(!) place in power), let its girls go to college, stop lynching “non-existant” gays from cranes, stop supporting terrorist groups and the regime in Syria, then I suspect that people worldwide would be maybe a little more inclined to trade with Iran.

    lol, the argies love iran, where they hang any political dissenters, anyone who supposedly breaks the laws of islams or insults islam, any woman that isn't a slave ot her husband, and they hang them like ENTERTAINMENT, in the town square, slowly and with much gusto, while chanting Allahu Akbar.......
    sounds like the future of Argentina if Cristina the Dictator keeps going ;D

    @5.... Unless you are a top CIA bug or just an informer, your sources are only as good as mine. How do you know that they are not building missile sites? can you name the place where it is going to be built? no you can't. I doubt how much you know about the subject.
    My sources are based principaly after reading the German DeWelt and related articles. Many of them BTW, Click on this link....

    I guess you are an american, and if so, you are just as blind as Hussain Obama is.
    You do not understand that you are the next in line. After finishing with “little Satan” next is “Big Satan”. Paraguana is an ideal launching site for a 5-10 Mton nuclear war head to be detonated 300-500 miles over central US. After doing the same over Israel. Google “1 Secong Later” and try to understand what I mean.
    If you didn't, so sad for you and for all who don't.

    So he would kick out the 40,000 Cuban health workers who have improved the lives of millions of Venezuelans poorest? What am I saying, of course he would! Now can you see why he won't win...
