You can’t make this stuff up. Above is ملعب هوجو تشافيز - Hugo Chávez Stadium to you and me – in Benina, Libya.
The Book
In praise of Blogging the Revolution
“Caracas Chronicles has been an indispensable source of lucidity and perspective in these turbulent times in Venezuela. Toro and Nagel have been right on target, without pretending to be ludicrously impartial; they have been able to rise above polarization, trying hard to make sense of an often implausible reality. Blogging the Revolution shows them at their best. If you are not already a fan, you will become one.”
- Francisco J. Monaldi, RFK Visiting Professor at Harvard Kennedy School and Director, Center on Energy at IESA in Caracas.Recent Comments

You can’t make this stuff up. I wonder if there’s a Moammar Gaddafi something or other in Caracas.
Not yet. Better not give him any ideas…
If he can build a monument to “Tirofijo” Marulanda, anything is possible…
You know what it’s going to become:

que ocio, coño!
Let us mercifully draw the sheet over the PSF-ish contentions that the relationship of Venezuela and Libya was strictly diplomatic and economic, somewhat like that done by many other countries, only a bit more close, in the hopes of opposing unipolarity with a concerted voice.
Not that such “business” as done with a tyrant like Gaddaffi by Italy, France and the UK was not wrong, especially when they sold weapons. Only that allying yourself with that guy is morally repugnant. And calling him “brother”, figure THAT out.
Hey! Maybe we can rehabilitate even Mussolini’s (or Stalin’s) legacy in front of such an
gullibleunderstanding bunch. Benito only allied Italy with the wrong guy in hopes of building an alternative to “plutocratic democracy” and capitalism, after all… The consequences for Italy were not that bad, were they?
