(Novum/AP) - De Venezolaanse president Hugo Chavez heeft woensdag zijn Amerikaanse ambtgenoot George Bush uitgemaakt voor de duivel. Chavez deed dit in een toespraak voor de Algemene Vergadering van de Verenigde Naties in New York. "De duivel was hier gister. Hij praatte alsof hij de eigenaar van de wereld is." Bush hield dinsdag zijn toespraak voor de Algemene Vergadering.
Chavez beschuldigde Washington ervan de volkeren van de wereld te domineren, exploiteren en beroven. "We roepen het Amerikaanse volk en de wereld op om een einde te maken aan deze bedreiging, die als een zwaard boven ons hoofd hangt."
Ook de VN kregen ervan langs. In hun huidige vorm zijn de VN niet-effectief en 'anti-democratisch', zei Chavez. Als voorbeeld gaf hij het 'immorele veto' van de Verenigde Staten dat ervoor heeft gezorgd dat Israël zijn bombardementen op Libanon ruim een maand kon uitvoeren. "Venezuela roept opnieuw op tot hervorming van de VN."

Chávez auf pragmatischem Kurs
Trotz Differenzen boomt der Handel zwischen Venezuela und den USA
Von Tommy Ramm, Bogotá *
Nachdem Washington letzte Woche die Schaffung eines neuen Spionagebüros zur Überwachung Kubas und Venezuelas angekündigt hat, spricht Präsident Hugo Chávez von einer neuen Eskalation der politischen Auseinandersetzungen. Auf das wirtschaftliche Terrain wirken sich die politischen Scharmützel bisher kaum aus.
Venezuelas Präsident Hugo Chávez ist schon wieder in China unterwegs. Das wegen seines Wirtschaftswachstums nach Rohstoffen gierende Land der Mitte bringt Chávez immer wieder drohend als alternativen Öl-Absatzmarkt zu den USA ins Gespräch, wenn es politisch mit Washington Reibereien gibt. So kommt auch die jetzige Reise zu einem günstigen Zeitpunkt, denn letzten Freitag kündigte der USA-Geheimdienstchef John Negroponte die Schaffung eines neuen Spionagebüros an, das in Zukunft Kuba und Venezuela im Zentrum seiner geheimdienstlichen Aktivitäten haben soll. Ziel seien die Zusammenstellung fehlender Informationen und die Entwicklung politischer Strategien gegenüber den beiden Staaten.
Laut Negroponte gehören die links regierten Staaten Kuba und Venezuela zu den außenpolitischen Herausforderungen der USA. Chef der neuen Mission soll Patrick Maher werden, der bereits den nationalen Geheimdienstposten für die westliche Hemisphäre innehat.
»Es handelt sich um eine längst angekündigte Mission, die versuchen will, Chávez zu stürzen und das Land im Vorwahlkampf ins Jahr 2002 zurückzuwerfen«, kritisierte der venezolanische Präsident die USA-Pläne. Im April 2002 wurde Chávez, der seit 1999 regiert, kurzzeitig durch einen Putsch entmachtet. Wenig später legte ein monatelanger Streik die venezolanische Wirtschaft lahm. Dessen Drahtzieher Carlos Ortega, bis dato Vorsitzender der oppositionell eingestellten venezolanischen Arbeitergewerkschaft, konnte am 13. August aus einem venezolanischen Gefängnis fliehen, nachdem laut offiziellen Angaben bis zu 500 000 US-Dollar Schmiergelder aus politischen Kreisen für dessen Flucht gezahlt worden sein sollen. Ende dieses Jahres finden in Venezuela Präsidentschaftswahlen statt, bei denen sich Chávez wiederwählen lassen will. Die Opposition und die USA scheinen bis dahin alles versuchen zu wollen, dies zu verhindern.
Allerdings steht die scharfe politische Rhetorik zwischen Venezuela und den USA in starkem Kontrast zu den florierenden wirtschaftlichen Beziehungen zwischen beiden Staaten. Zwar hat Washington kürzlich über Venezuela ein Embargo verhängt, was jeglichen Verkauf von USAWaffentechnologie an die Chávez-Regierung verbietet. Doch der Handel boomt. Nicht nur ist Venezuela einer der größten Erdöllieferanten für die USA, sondern auch einer der Staaten, deren Importe von USA-Waren in den letzten Monaten am kräftigsten angezogen haben. »Der Kapitalismus lenkt die Menschheit in die Zerstörung«, erläuterte Chávez auf einer Reise in Vietnam und nannte die USA »den Teufel, der den Kapitalismus repräsentiert«. Die Zahlen sprechen eine andere Sprache: Um 36 Prozent wuchs der zweiseitige Handel allein im Jahr 2005, die Importe von Computern, Autos und Maschinen made in USA stiegen von 4,8 auf 6,4 Milliarden US-Dollar. Doch auch Venezuela konnte selbst ohne das Erdöl in den ersten drei Monaten dieses Jahres laut dem Nationalen Venezolanischen Statistikinstitut seinen Export in die USA mehr als verdoppeln.
Dass Politik und Geschäft gründlich getrennt werden, zeigt der Fall der USA-Firma Halliburton, die eng mit der politischen Klasse um den Vizepräsidenten Dick Cheeney verbunden ist und für Schlagzeilen im Erdölgeschäft in Irak gesorgt hat. Halliburton gewann kürzlich eine Ausschreibung für die technische Ausstattung eines venezolanischen Erdölfördergebiets in Zusammenarbeit mit der halbstaatlichen Erdölfirma Petrozuata. Halliburton ist seit 50 Jahren in Venezuela aktiv, besitzt zehn Büros und beschäftigt mehr als 1000 Mitarbeiter, deren Tätigkeiten Chávez trotz internationaler Skandale um diese Firma bisher nicht angetastet hat. »Es gibt Rhetorik und es gibt Geschäfte«, brachte es ein Mitarbeiter des USA-Handelsministeriums auf den Punkt. Dieser These dürfte auch Chávez zustimmen und sie in China beherzigen.

Chavez Slams U.S. Protection Of CIA Plane Bomber Posada At UN
Press fascination with "devil" quote overshadows Venezuelan President's expose of state sponsored terror, reference to 9/11 inside job
Paul Joseph Watson/Prison Planet.com | September 21 2006
In focusing solely on Hugo Chavez's characterization of Bush as the devil, the mainstream media have succeeded in aiming attention away from the Venezuelan President's most salient point made during his UN speech - CIA control of terror cells around the world and their protection of plane bomber Luis Posada.
According to documents released by the George Washington University's National Security Archive, and verified by the BBC, Luis Posada Carriles was a CIA agent and on the payroll from the 1960s until mid-1976.
Posada was part of an anti-Cuban terror cell called Commanders of United Revolutionary Organizations (CORU), led by another CIA operative Orlando Bosch. From the mid-1970's Posada and Bosch instigated a reign of terror that spanned seven countries, carrying out over 50 bombings and political assassinations - including the October 1976 bombing of a Cuban passenger plane as it took off from Barbados, killing 73 innocent people on board.
All at the behest of the current President's father and then CIA Director George H.W. Bush.
Posada and Bosch were arrested and jailed in Venezuela but promptly escaped in 1985 when money from Miami, funneled in by fellow terrorist Gaspar Jimenez Escobedo, was used to bribe prison guards.
The two were then transported by terrorist handler and Cuban expatriate Felix Rodriguez to El Salvador to link up with Oliver North and the Iran-Contra conspiracy, supplying Contras against the Sandinista government of Nicaragua.
Two years later Senator Tom Harkin stated the American people "deserve a full accounting of [then Vice President] Bush and the vice president's office and its knowledge of Luis Posada's role in the secret contra supply operation."
Posada's terrorist accomplice Rodriguez, pictured above with Che Guevara in the hours before Guevara's assassination, bragged during his Iran-Contra congressional testimony of having personally met with George H.W. Bush.
After El Salvador, Posada was given safe passage by the U.S. government and allowed to continue to carry out terrorist atrocities, including a wave of tourist industry bombings in Havana during the 1990's.
Posada was finally arrested by federal agents in Miami in May of 2005, but a recent ruling by US magistrate Norbert Garney in El Paso, Texas, will pave the way for the CIA asset and mass murderer to be released once again.
Whether or not you agree with the politics of trying to undermine Communist regimes during the Cold War - the fact remains that the U.S. government has historically created and hired terrorist organizations to carry out acts of mass murder of innocent people to further geopolitical agendas - and has then deliberately protected terrorists from arrest or prosecution.
The hypocrisy of a government and a Bush dynasty supposedly engaged in a war on terror and yet concurrently the biggest sponsor of global terror was made plain by Chavez during his speech yesterday.
"And we must recall in this room that in just a few days there will be another anniversary. Thirty years will have passed from this other horrendous terrorist attack on the Cuban plane, where 73 innocents died, a Cubana de Aviacion airliner," said Chavez.
"And where is the biggest terrorist of this continent who took the responsibility for blowing up the plane? He spent a few years in jail in Venezuela. Thanks to CIA and then government officials, he was allowed to escape, and he lives here in this country, protected by the government."
"And he was convicted. He has confessed to his crime. But the U.S. government has double standards. It protects terrorism when it wants to," said the Venezuelan President.
"I accuse the American government of protecting terrorists and of having a completely cynical discourse."
Subsequent media response to Chavez's speech framed the debate to only include discussion of his "devil" reference - an almost offhand joke at the start of the talk - and completely ignored the detailed enunciation of the U.S. government's protection of the CIA's terrorist operatives.
Fox News (see video here) seized upon the "devil" quote and used it to demonize Chavez as having lost his mind - absent any mention of the Posada topic.
Chavez again alluded to U.S. government complicity in 9/11, a subject he had raised in a previous speech.
"And I would just add one thing: Those who perpetrated this crime are free. And that other event where an American citizen also died were American themselves. They were CIA killers, terrorists."
Amid the difficult translation, Chavez is clearly making reference to elements of the CIA being behind 9/11.
The media is complicit, acting as gatekeepers in a desperate attempt to edit and obfuscate the hard-hitting and increasingly revealing speeches given by Hugo Chavez. The Venezuelan President's bold intention to rip away the veil of deceit in exposing western state sponsored terror should be applauded and given as much play as possible by the alternative media.
We worden gewoon in de zeik genomen. Bush en Chavez zitten elke woensdag bij elkaar op de thee.

Chavez savages Bush in speech
Diplomats at U.N. applaud his attack on U.S. policy
Colum Lynch, Washington Post
Thursday, September 21, 2006
(09-21) 04:00 PDT United Nations -- Hugo Chavez, Venezuela's combative president, blasted President Bush on Wednesday in a U.N. speech as a racist, imperialist devil who has devoted six years in office to military aggression and the oppression of the world's poorest people.
Speaking from the podium where President Bush spoke a day earlier, Chavez said he could still smell the sulfur -- a reference to the scent of Satan. Even by U.N. standards, where the United States is frequently criticized as the world's superpower, Chavez's anti-American remarks were exceptionally inflammatory. They were also received with a warm round of applause.
Chavez's address followed of series of strident speeches by U.S. adversaries, including Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadenijad and Sudanese President Omar el-Bashir. Together, they represented an emboldened alliance of oil-rich states who defied U.S. demands to change their policies on a range of issues, including the development of nuclear technology and the role of U.N. peacekeepers in Darfur.
"Yesterday, ladies and gentlemen, from this rostrum, the president of the United States, the gentleman to whom I refer as the devil, came here, talking as if he owned the world," Chavez told the chamber of international diplomats. "I think we could call a psychiatrist to analyze yesterday's statement made by the president of the United States. As the spokesman of imperialism, he came to share his nostrums, to try to preserve the current pattern of domination, exploitation and pillage of the peoples of the world."
Bush administration officials dismissed Chavez's remarks as the ravings of a reckless political leader. "I'm not going to dignify a comment by the Venezuelan president towards the United States," Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said. "I think it's not becoming for a head of state."
In an effort to bolster his case, Chavez waved a copy of Noam Chomsky's book "Hegemony or Survival: America's Quest for Global Domination," and recommended that everyone read it. The book, written by the American linguist and longtime critic of U.S. foreign policy, argues that the U.S. pursuit of political supremacy is having devastating consequences for the majority of the world's people. After the speech, the book's hourly sales ranking on Amazon.com soared to No. 22 as of 6 p.m. Wednesday, from No. 160,772 earlier in the day, according to CNN.
"The president of the United States came to talk to the peoples -- to the peoples of the world," Chavez said. "What would those peoples of the world tell him if they were given the floor? ... I think I have some inkling of what the peoples of the south, the oppressed people think. They would say, 'Yankee imperialist, go home.'
"The world is waking up. I have the feeling, dear world dictator, that you are going to live the rest of your days as a nightmare because the rest of us are standing up, all those who are rising up against American imperialism."
Chavez's U.N. appearance is part of a Venezuelan campaign to gain election to the Latin American seat on the U.N. Security Council, a post that would place it in a position to challenge U.S. policies. The United States, which vigorously opposes Venezuela's candidacy, is supporting a competing bid for the post by Guatemala, a poor Central American republic with little political influence at the United Nations.
In portraying the United States as an imperial power, Chavez sought to evoke memories of the Cold War, when Third World revolutionaries such as Cuban President Fidel Castro (an ally and mentor of Chavez) and Zimbabwean leader Robert Mugabe delivered scathing attacks on the United States.
U.N. experts said that while Chavez's speech may resonate with delegations who oppose a new world order built around U.S. power, it was so undiplomatic that it might undermine his chances of getting into the Security Council.
It "confirms the worst stereotypes about the U.N. General Assembly being a circus sideshow filled with venom and rabid anti-Americanism," said Edward Luck, an expert on the United Nations at Columbia University. "I never thought anyone could make Ahmadenijad look like a moderate, but Chavez has done it."
While Chavez is renowned for his caustic views of the Bush administration, some senior U.N. diplomats were startled by his statement. Asked if Chavez had gone too far, China's Foreign Minister Li Zhao Xing said: "He really said that? Are you sure? He would go that far?"
Britain's Foreign Secretary Margaret Beckett suggested that the Chavez comments went beyond the pale of diplomatic protocol at the United Nations. "Even the Democrats wouldn't say that," she said.
