Venezuela begins shutdown of 34 radio stations

[Richard]

So how can Hugo stop the internet?

Exactly - or how can he stop the people from receiving the broadcasts from neighboring or global news radio networks?

When will the people have enough???

For QPs and the NCA - that is always the $64k question.

The same way China, North Korea, Iran, Saudi Arabia etc etc etc etc does. It can be done, I'm sure Hugo Chavez has been in contact with some of the hardline socialist or commie countries and asked "How do I shut off or limit the internet in my country?"

Someone needs to give Hugo a dirt nap.

So how can Hugo stop the internet? All one needs is a laptop and a wifi connection. It is going to get real interesting. When will the people have enough???

During Friday prayers given by Rafsanjani in Teheran on July 17th, opposition protestors outside the mosque began chanting “Death to Russia.” Russia’s inclusion in the Two Minutes’ Hate is rare. At the height of the early protests, Ahmadinejad had traveled to Moscow. The opposition believes that he obtained the services of Russian technicians and advisors to assist in the supression of the protests.
Similar assistance would probably be available to Chavez from Russia or China. Both would probably be very happy to expand their influence in the Western Hemisphere.

Critics march against Chavez across Latin America

By SUSANA LONDONO (AP) – 2 days ago
BOGOTA — Thousands of opponents of Hugo Chavez marched against the Venezuelan president across Latin America on Friday, accusing him of everything from authoritarianism to international meddling.

The protests, coordinated through Twitter and Facebook, drew more than 5,000 people in Bogota, and thousands more in the capitals of Venezuela and Honduras. Smaller demonstrations were held in other Latin American capitals, as well as New York and Madrid.

The Honduras march was led by Roberto Micheletti, who became president when Chavez ally Manuel Zelaya was ousted in a June coup.

"Any politician who tries to stay in power by hitching up with a dictator like Hugo Chavez, he won't achieve it," Micheletti said. "We'll stop him."

Chavez, who was traveling in Syria, ridiculed the protests, likening Micheletti to a gorilla and saying: "Those who want to march, march with 'Goriletti,' the dictators, the extreme right."

Chavez supporters held smaller counter-demonstrations, including a Caracas rally that drew nearly 200 people. Police in Quito, Ecuador, intervened to keep pro- and anti-Chavez groups from clashing...

Venezuela's Chavez accuses Israel of genocide

Wed Sep 9, 2009 4:17am EDT
PARIS, Sept 9 (Reuters) - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has accused Israel of genocide against the Palestinian people, telling a French newspaper that the bombing of Gaza late last year was an unprovoked attack.

"The question is not whether the Israelis want to exterminate the Palestinians. They're doing it openly," Chavez said in an interview with Le Figaro published on Wednesday.

The Venezuelan president, who has just completed a tour of Middle Eastern and Arab countries, brushed aside Israeli assertions that its attack on Gaza was a response to rocket fire from Islamist group Hamas which rules the coastal enclave.

"What was it if not genocide? ... The Israelis were looking for an excuse to exterminate the Palestinians," Chavez said, adding that sanctions should have been slapped on Israel....

The Bottom Line.

This bozo does for Venezuela what Mussolini did for Italy.

What I find the most disgusting is how people who have made millions off the entertainment industry, e.g., Danny Glover and Oliver Stone, consider this tyrant a friend. I guess censorship is okay as long as you are not the one being silenced. We have to have our priorities and I guess freedom is not high on the list anymore.

In time folks like Glover and Stone may find themselves on the business end of the stick from those they once adored.

Chavez reminds me of a neighborhood dog that never shut up... owner was warned and warned to shut the dog up.. someone evern bought an antibark collar for the dog and the owner refused to stop the dog.. one day she woke up and the dog had eaten, as the story goes, a poisoned hot dog... sure was quiet after that.. Chavez reminds me of that dog.

OTOH, ever notice that at any given point we have a 'yapper' yapping its own version of world politics as it sees it and, of course, accusing everyone and its brother of having smelly undewear and hang nails.. toss a hot dog to one, another pops up. At least this yapper is mildly amusing.
