World War III in the Western Hemisphere: Venezuela

"the US Fourth Fleet... has just begun patrolling the Caribbean after having been disbanded in 1953."

WWIII will beat the other two because when the Third Anti-Christ Bush begins WWIII, it will truly be global.


"Russia to join Venezuela naval drill; Moscow to send 1,000 personnel and four vessels" by Chris Kraul, Los Angeles Times | September 8, 2008

BOGOTA - The Venezuelan government confirmed yesterday that four Russian naval vessels will participate in joint exercises in the Caribbean this year, a move that could heighten already strained relations between Russia and the United States.

The Russian agreement to send ships also could be seen as part of a campaign by President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela to build up his military, an effort that includes arms deals, a proposed hemispheric South American Defense Council, and a recent decree that gives his armed forces a greater role in carrying out his social agenda.

And he is different from George W. Bush and the neo-cons in what way now (other than the fact that he cares for his people)?

Chavez particularly is unhappy with the reformation of the US Fourth Fleet, based in Mayport, Fla., which has just begun patrolling the Caribbean after having been disbanded in 1953.

Oh, I see; so Russia is just REACTING and DEFENDING like in South Ossetia, huh?

Not that Chavez should worry; the U.S already tried a coup against him.
