I'll second Michael's shout out for this interview: http://www.zcommunications.org/znet/viewArticle/23610 It really is educational. The trade unionist notes the following about Chavez's position on the government and the problems it causes. Very non-sectarian, I might add: "We really do not know. We are really confused as to why Chavez is Ahmadinejad's buddy. It makes no sense to us. It has made it almost impossible in Iran to defend his BolĂvarian Revolution. When you have people being beaten or tortured, and so on, and then tell them, "Well, there is this government that supports your government, but these guys are good guys," it is difficult to fathom, really. We hope that Chavez changes his policy, because when there is a change of government in Iran it will be accompanied by a total rupture with everyone who supported Ahmadinejad." ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: [email protected] Set your options at: http://lists.econ.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
