Chavez to launch guerrilla warfare against USA

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has urged soldiers to prepare for a guerrilla-style war against the United States.

He said the US government is using psychological and economic warfare as part of an unconventional campaign aimed at derailing his government. Dressed in olive green fatigues and a red beret, Chavez spoke yesterday inside Tiuna Fort – Venezuela’s military nerve-centre – before hundreds of uniformed soldiers standing alongside armoured vehicles and tanks decorated with banners reading: “Fatherland, Socialism, or Death! We will triumph!”

“We must continue developing the resistance war, that’s the anti-imperialist weapon. We must think and prepare for the resistance war everyday,” said Chavez, who has repeatedly warned that American soldiers could invade Venezuela to seize control of the South American nation’s immense oil reserves.

Bush vetoes bill banning CIA waterboarding

US President George Bush says he has vetoed legislation that would stop the CIA using interrogation methods such as simulated drowning or “water-boarding”. He said he rejected the intelligence bill, passed by Senate and Congress, as it took “away one of the most valuable tools in the war on terror”. The president said the CIA needed “specialised interrogation procedures” that the military did not. Water-boarding is condemned as torture by rights groups and many governments. It is an interrogation method that puts the detainee in fear of drowning.

US special services arrest ‘Merchant of Death’ in Bangkok

Viktor Bout, an arms dealer known as “The Merchant of Death,” was arrested in Thailand, at a Bangkok hotel. Special services from many countries of the world have been hunting for Bout for years. US officials believe that the Russian businessman is world’s largest arms trafficker. Hollywood apparently sticks to the same opinion: Nicolas Cage played a character similar to Bout in a 2005 film Lord of War.

Special units of the Thai police and representatives of US law-enforcement agencies arrested Viktor Bout in his hotel room.

US authorities accuse the Russian citizen of illegal arms deliveries to Africa in contravention of the international embargo. Bout has been supposedly shipping weapons to rebels in Angola, Congo, Liberia, Rwanda, Sierra-Leone and Sudan since the beginning of the 1990s. The dealer was selling Soviet-made weapons for diamonds. Western investigators believe that Bout has established a network of 50 airlines to transport his arms all over the world.

From WIKIPEDIA Article: Viktor Anatolyevich Bout (Russian: Виктор Анатольевич Бут) (born January 13, 1967 in Dushanbe, Tajik SSR, Soviet Union) is a Russian former KGB major and arms dealer, [1] nicknamed “the Merchant of Death”.[2] Bout is suspected of supplying arms to the Taliban and Al Qaeda and of supplying huge arms shipments into various civil wars in Africa with his own private air fleet.[3] He is the subject of a book by that name written by Douglas Farah and Stephen Braun[4] (Bout is not the first to bear the title: it appeared in a premature obituary of Alfred Nobel, which ultimately inspired him to create the Nobel Prizes). According to Lee S. Wolosky, he is “the most powerful player in the trafficking of illegal arms.” [1]

Recent reports suggest he is also operating in Iraq using front companies and Cargo Airlifts (Airline Transport, Air West, Aerocom and TransAvia Export). Bout came to officials’ attention in the 1990s, when he was accused of supplying arms to rebels in West Africa after a cease-fire agreement had been brokered. At that time he owned or was using many airlines, including Air Cess and Centrafrican, which were later forced to shut down by authorities. He also supplied arms to the deposed regime of Charles Taylor in Liberia.
