now venezuela is moving thousands of troops to the border with colombia. in one respect a war between these two might turn out to do some good. a military defeat could destroy the chavez regime. when you look at this both on paper and in terms of military capability and experience, colombia should walk all over venezuela in a war. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/7279663.stm

Hopefully Chavez gets caught in the crossfire.

Sitcom idea: Hugo Chavez and Kim Jong Il secret agents posing as tennis pros. If it is created by Parker and Stone, then I am watching it. *L*

in one respect a war between these two might turn out to do some good. a military defeat could destroy the chavez regime. when you look at this both on paper and in terms of military capability and experience, colombia should walk all over venezuela in a war. I'm betting Chavez is just posturing. Like you said, Colombia would walk all over Venezuela. And I don't think the rest of the world would look too kindly on Venezuela starting a war just because Chavez didn't like being caught supporting terrorists -- especially the U.S. We're a little tied up with Iraq and Afghanistan right now, but even a spare carrier group would be a big boost to Colombia.
