Rising Tensions With Chávez in South America
« on: July 30, 2009, 12:50:05 AM »



Recent revelations that the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) guerrillas in Colombia have received sophisticated Swedish anti-tank weapons purchased by the military in Venezuela has added to the regional strain in South America, which are already running high. The FARC is a designated terrorist organization by the United States and the European Union.

The AT-4 rockets and their launchers were found, according to Semana Magazine (in Spanish) in a camp abandoned by the FARC’s chief military commander Jorge Briceño. While found in June, the information was just made public by the Colombian government due to Venezuela’s lack of responsiveness on the issue.

The Swedish government has confirmed it sold the equipment to the Venezuelan government.

Venezuelan president Hugo Chávez reacted as he has in the past: he withdrew Venezuela’s diplomatic presence from Colombia and denounced the information as part of giant, fabricated conspiracy against his country.






I wonder what the libtard spin will be on this?  :bird:

The rest at the Link

Also a link to describe who FARC is.
