Remember the incident in South America in which Columbian forces entered Venezuelan territory fought with a FARC drug lord and killed him? As part of the spoils of this minor victory over the global drug market eight laptops were seized and taken back to Columbia in their hasty exit from Venezuela.
Of course Marxist Hugo Chavez went postal and began some saber rattling against Columbia and old Hugo got his buddy Marxist Rafael Correa to also move troops to the Columbia/Ecuador border all in an effort of typical communist intimidation.
Now let’s talk about those eight laptops. Columbia had Interpol forensic experts examine them. Now Interpol is a police force NOT known for corruption. Interpol discovered potential evidence on the laptops linking FARC with Hugo Chavez’s Venezuelan Government. It should be of no surprise because FARC’s original purpose for existing is as a Communist movement (of the old Marxist/Leninist brand) to overthrow the Columbian government. It just happens that ideology is overshadowed by thuggery and international drug dealing (with a little kidnapping thrown in for good measure) as an illegal capitalist enterprise. How is that for the effectiveness of Marxist ideology?
Anyway if the loose ends can be attached to Uncle Hugo with Interpol’s forensic discoveries, then America has an outstanding case to force the rusty wheels of the U.N. Security Council to throw a monkey wrench in the agenda of Hugo Chavez.
Well Chavez’s bellicose move to the Venezuela/Columbia border was not merely because Columbia crossed the Ecuador/Columbia border to bring justice to FARC’s second in command Raul Reyes. It turns out the Columbian military acquired more than the justice of bringing down a Marxist committed to bringing down democracy of Columbia. Columbia discovered a laptop that contained damning evidence of Chavez doing business with FARC in drugs and weapons grade Uranium.
The laptop is the smoking gun that the USA-Columbia joint efforts to battle drug cartels (of which hypocrite Communist FARC is a member) was cutting into Chavez’s bottom line in the illegal drug business.
There is more: Chavez is a staunch ally with President Ahmadinejad of rogue nation Iran who has been recently exposed as working on weapons grade uranium (regardless of the NIE Report).
So we have the international exchange of money between NARC and Hugo Chavez. We also have Chavez being the middle man in providing weapons grade Uranium to NARC.
Gosh, I wonder where the uranium came from.

The Columbia military entered Ecuador and killed a high echelon leader of the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia (Hispanic anagram: FARC).
FARC is a Communist terrorist group whose political goal is to bring repressive Communism to Columbia; however its operations are drug trafficking, kidnapping for ransom, extortion and the general use of terrorist tactics to control the local people FARC has infiltrated and to strike fear in the people of Columbian controlled areas.
Ecuador has cajones in allowing FARC to hide within their national borders. If Columbia has the power to back up threats to their National Security, they have every right to chase terrorists across foreign borders. Ecuador should be condemned for harboring FARC. Indeed harboring FARC could be almost considered an act of war against Columbia.
Venezuela’s reaction was hostile to Columbia. Chavez the President of Venezuela has slowly eroded Democratic institutions since coming to power as an overt Communist striking up an anti-American friendship with Cuba.
Ecuador’s President Rafael Correa describes himself as Socialist and a Roman Catholic and a personal friend of Communist Hugo Chavez.
Thus when Columbia decided to take action against FARC on Ecuadorean soil, it is not surprising that both Venezuela and Ecuador mobilized there military to their borders with Columbia.
This mobilization of military elements in essence validates the Venezuelan and Ecuadorean governments’ support of drug dealing terrorists that operate under the umbrella of Communism.
If Venezuela and Ecuador actually do more than rattle their sabers at Columbia, America should support the Columbian government with a military strike that reminds Chavez and Correa that they can still be spanked even without an American invasion.
