Chavez Address to the United Nations
by Hugo Chavez

We continue to warn you about this danger and we appeal to the people of the United States and the world to halt this threat, which is like a sword hanging over our heads. I had considered reading from this book, but, for the sake of time," "I will just leave it as a recommendation.

It reads easily, it is a very good book, I'm sure Madame you are familiar with it. It appears in English, in Russian, in Arabic, in German. I think that the first people who should read this book are our brothers and sisters in the United States, because their threat is right in their own house.

The devil is right at home. The devil, the devil himself, is right in the house.

"And the devil came here yesterday. Yesterday the devil came here. Right here." "And it smells of sulfur still today...

8. Our choice is not between Bush and Chavez...
Edited on Thu Sep-21-06 06:07 AM by Mr_Jefferson_24
...but between a future and no future. It's not fate, it's a choice. We either somehow collectively wake up to the fact that absent a massive revolution of non-violent, non-cooperation with the forces of fascism, we will have no future, and revolt, or we continue in our collective mass slumber.

THAT'S our choice---if we want any kind of a decent future for ourselves and our children, revolution is required. That's the way it was for our nation's founders, and it's now the way it is for us.
