By Fidel Castro
" know Chavez well, and no one could be more reluctant than him to allow a showdown between the Venezuelan and Colombian peoples that leads to bloodshed. These are two fraternal peoples, the same as Cubans living in the east, center and west end of our island. I find no other way to explain the close relationship between Venezuelans and Colombians.
The slanderous Yankee accusation that Chavez is planning a war against neighboring Colombia led an influential paper of that country to run a story last Sunday, November 15, under the headline "War Drums." It was a pejorative and insulting editorial against the Venezuelan president asserting, among other things, that "Colombia should take very seriously the gravest threat to its national security in more than seven decades as it comes from a president with a military background...".....
Those who think that division between Venezuelans and Colombians can lead to the success of their counterrevolutionary plans are deceiving themselves. Many of the best and most humble workers in Venezuela are Colombians; the Revolution has given them and their immediate family education, healthcare, employment, the right to citizenship and other benefits. Together, Venezuelans and Colombians shall defend the great Homeland of the Liberator of the Americas; together, they shall fight for peace and freedom.
The thousands of Cuban doctors, educators and other collaborators carrying out their internationalist duty in Venezuela shall be with them!"

COMMENT: Compare this vision and wisdom with the ease with which the Empire has been able to devastate the so-called Muslim Umma. It was so easy to get Muslims to slaughter other Muslims: all it took was a few black ops arranged by the Mossad and the Empire. And the bloodletting is no where near an end. From Iraq to Afghanistan, Pakistan,..etc, and now Yemen!
It goes to show the failure of the "Islamist" project, until some intelligent and visionary leadership emerges in the Muslim world; but that leadership is no where in sight now. Alas there are no Muslim Castros, Guevaras or the likes of Chavez.
