Venezuela - state sponsor of terrorism

President Hugo Chavez of Venezuela has apparently been funding the Naro-terrorist group FARC (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) - a Marxist front group with ties to Castro's Cuba. Latin American expert Humberto Fontova claims that a computer recovered during Columbia's cross boarder raid on a FARC camp in Ecuador contains information which contains evidence that Hugo Chavez has been funding the terrorist group - a commitment of MILLIONS of Dollars.

The ties between Chavez and FARC run deep. In the 1990s when Chavez was running for president of Venzuela it was known that he was being financed in part by FARC. Alejandro Peña Esclusa reports in an open letter to President Uribe of Columbia that Chavez was a close personal friend of the terrorist leader slain in the March 1 raid.

Further evidence of the ties the Chavez government has to the narco-terroist group has come to light in Venezuela. Joaquin Gomez, appointed to replace Raul Reyes the FARC second in command who was slain in the Coumbian raid, is being treated in a private clinic (NOTE THAT IT IS A PRIVATE CLINIC) and is being guarded by the Venezuelan military.

Given the growing list of evidence connecting the Chavez regime with Terrorist groups like FARC, it should come as no big surprise that Lawmakers are attempting to have Venezuela added to the list of state sponsors of Terrorism.
