Uribe imagining arms race: Bolivia
Uribe imagining arms race: Bolivia
Thursday, 09 December 2010 09:18 Scott Kobewka

Bolivia's Defense Minister Ruben Saavedra called former Colombian President Alvaro Uribe's claims that Bolivia and Venezuela are in a nuclear arms race "ridiculous," reports Efe.

The minister said that Uribe's claims are "ridiculous and out of context" and that Bolivia has "no time or money" for such activities.

On Tuesday Uribe said that Bolivia and Venezuela may be in a nuclear arms race. "There was much criticism of the treaty between Colombia and the United States to face narcoterrorism ... but there has been not a single criticism of the nuclear developments in Bolivia and Venezuela," said the former president.

Saavedra said that Uribe's statements are unfounded and that he is "letting his imagination fly."

1. This is what our young people at Georgetown and Harvard are being taught--
--that Venezuela and Bolivia are seeking nuclear weapons?

What is this foaming-at-the-mouth mafioso doing at Georgetown and Harvard? I ask you.

WHAT DOES HE KNOW, about Bush Junta crimes in Colombia, that he getting this coddling and protection, and is permitted to freely spout egregious lies that could lead to war?

WHAT is he doing in our country? WHAT is he doing teaching in these schools? WHAT is he doing on a prestigious international legal commission, appointed by Obama?

WHAT is he doing asking Sec of State Hillary Clinton for "sovereign immunity" from prosecution for his own crimes, back in Colombia?

I mean, what is this? Who does he think he is? What right does he have to use our country this way? The EX-president of Colombia, with a trail of murdered bodies behind him going all the way back to when he was governor of Antioquia?

This is so obscene, this little shit running around the USA trying to ape Bush Jr--trying to stir up a war in the very same way? When did an EX-president of any country get to do this in OUR country? Why can't they shut him up? Why don't they throw him out? What is he DOING here?

It makes me very, VERY worried.

2. I'll bet they're making up ways to make it looks as if he's busy & Colombian prosecutors
will have a hard time getting him back to Colombia during the trials which will be coming up concerning his corrupt government, his illegal wiretaps, his connections to the narcotrafficking paramitaries, massacres, etc., etc.

I'll betcha he's working on getting asylum somewhere.

If Colombia ever gets a more honest President and legislators, this guy's toast, just like all those Brazilian, Argentinian, and Chilean vicious fascist vampires who slaughtered THEIR own countrymen/women, too.
