CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — President Hugo Chavez on Friday accused Colombia and the United States of plotting a military "aggression" against Venezuela.
"A military aggression is being prepared from Colombia against Venezuela by the United States," Chavez said. He warned Colombia not to attempt "a provocation against Venezuela" and said his country would cut off all oil exports in the event of a military strike from the neighboring country.
Chavez did not offer evidence to support his claim. He has repeatedly accused the United States of plotting to oust him or kill him, though it was the first time he has accused Colombia's U.S.-allied government in such strident terms.
Funny. Chavez has nerve accusing others of aggression considering:

Perhaps any actions Colombia is taking are in direct reaction to the aggression he is showing towards his other neighbors.
