6. He was not a dictator
Viviane ,   Jerusalem   (03.07.13)
Over the coming days, you will be repeatedly told that Hugo Chavez was a dictator. A funny sort of dictator: there have been 17 elections and referenda since 1998. Perhaps you think they were rigged. When he won by a huge margin in 2006, former US President Jimmy Carter was among those declaring he had won “fairly and squarely”.

a country whose leadership persecutes Jews almost always persecutes their own majority and other minorities as well.

I do not agree that the situation of the jewish community in Venezuela deteriorated because of Operation Cast Lead. When you are partners with guys like Ahmadinejad, Khadafi and Assad you will find every way to demonize Israel. In Europe the same happens in those societies that do not want to jeopardize their relations with the moslem communities living among them. And in the rest of the world, were leftist governments wants to show opposition to the Us they will criticize Israel (among other things) in order to show their desagreament with Washington.
