Russia offers nuke cooperation to leftist Venezuela
As part of its growing hostile policy toward the United States, Russia is offering nuclear technology to the leftist regime of Hugo Chavez in Venezuela, according to U.S. officials.

The nuclear deal was made public by Chavez on Venezuelan television Sept. 28 following his trip to Russia. Noting his strong friendship with Russian leader Vladimir Putin, Chavez stated that "In Venezuela we are certainly interested in developing nuclear energy, obviously for peaceful purposes."
The IAEA will of course appoint Mr. Magoo as watchdog, just as in Iran ...
Chavez then joked that his interest in nuclear technology has nothing to do with an atomic bicycle that has a bomb hidden in the back wheel near the chain, but that the "yankees" were unable to find. "We are talking about nuclear energy for peaceful purposes, for medical use, and for generating electricity," he stated. "Brazil has nuclear energy."
The Brazilians aren't crazy ...
According to Chavez, former Venezuelan dictator Perez Jimenez set up a nuclear reactor in Venezuela, but the project was discontinued due to "yankee pressure."

"Brazil has nuclear reactors as does Argentina. Venezuela will have its reactor too," he said. "Putin announced to reporters that Russia is ready to help Venezuela develop nuclear energy for peaceful purposes and we already have a commission working in this respect."

The potential transfer of nuclear technology to Venezuela is an indication that Venezuela's leftist regime will secretly develop nuclear weapons, following the pattern of denial and deception used in the past by North Korea for its arms program and currently being used by Iran for its nuclear arms program.
Look into Pooty Poot's soul now and tell us what you see.
