Quote:
CARACAS, Venezuela - President Hugo Chavez brought up Carlos the Jackal during a meeting of oil producers Thursday, calling the Venezuela-born terrorist who once took hostages at an OPEC meeting "a good friend."

...........................

Chavez provoked controversy in 1999 when he confirmed he had written a letter to Ramirez. He addressed Ramirez as "Dear compatriot" and, according to press reports, signed it "with profound faith in the cause and the mission, now and forever."

Oh wow... There's stupid, then there's stupid. Though, I assume, if the US makes any kind of public statement about this, we're the bad guys...

Some of us fall by the wayside
And some of us soar to the stars
And some of us sail through our troubles
And some have to live with our scars
