What's this?
Who's leading the conversation?
This visualization below allows you to see the impact that each user
has on the current conversation.
The top row contains the group of users who have had the most impact, the 2nd
row the group of users who have had the 2nd most impact (et cetera).
Users with similar impact are grouped together, and the average score of the group
is shown to the left of the group. The author of the article is also shown on the
left, in their corresponding group.
Each user's score is based on the number of comments the user has made plus the
number of votes their comments have received. The scores are calculated relative
one another, so while their absolute value is not particularly important, their
relative difference does indicate a larger difference in impact on the conversation.

No more crazy than any other world leader. That guy gets to be president of a country of a democratic vote or whatever you call it that exists in the world today.

Maybe not crazy, but it sure isn't good TV... Welcome to Hugo Chavez rant hour: 60 minutes with Hugo Chavez in front of a camera and a live audience, going "Bush is dangerous. Bush is a murderer".

Israel continues to bomb Lebanon. Hezbollah continues to attack Israel. Neither side seems to be backing down. While the world continues to decide how they can intervene and what they can do people continue to die. I love Hugo he just doesn't care who he offends I'm surprised the US hasn't assassinated him yet although I'm sure they thought of ways to do so if not tried already.
He has embraced the regional leaders who have called for the destruction of the Jewish state and I think there is a serious question as to his judgment when it comes to Middle East issues.
Yeh fu** it! Lets just invade Venezuela to. We're heading for World War III anyway right? Chavez hasn't said anything more controversial than any other world leader out there on either side. Don't mind me folks. Just my regular ranting of the problems of the world today.

With friends like Fidel Castro and Ahmadinejad, all Chavez is missing is Kim Jong Il.
I bet they all take golfing trips together.
I would imagine Kim Jong Il is probably the one they let win, otherwise he throws a tantrum and his golf club...

Instead of posting silly links you should discuss what he said: "They are massacring children, and no one knows how many are buried". This is just true and western leaders are ignoring it.

From the Wikipedia article on the Holocaust:
#Scale
"The mass killing was at its worst in Central and Eastern Europe, which had more than 7 million Jews in 1939; about 5 million Jews were killed there, including 3 million in Poland and over 1 million in the Soviet Union. Hundreds of thousands also died in the Netherlands, France, Belgium, Yugoslavia, and Greece."
Around 5 million people died in the holocaust. Perhaps the Venezelan president could do with some history lessons.

"No one can deny?" That's ridiculous! Israel has every right to defend themselves from aggression and it doesn't matter if the aggressor is a country or a bunch of thugs. In this case, the aggressor is both. Hezbollah is nothing more than a terrorist organization, but it has the support of Iran and both the people and the government of Lebanon. There is no reason to stop attacking the terrorists until they renounce violence - or Lebanon takes action to stop them. The fact that they are using civilian areas as launch pads makes Hezbollah the cause of Lebanese civilian deaths, not Israel.
The solution is simple. Stop attacking Israel and let them live in peace. But the Muslims are too stupid to see the truth.

it is an atrocity on a grand scale.
Killing a million people is an atrocity on a grand scale. Even killing 100,000 or 10,000 in one attack is potentially worthy of being killed an atrocity on a grand scale. But less than 1,000 in a month? When everything becomes an atrocity on a grand scale, nothing is an atrocity on a grand scale.

He calls it the "New Holocaust" because he's a revisionist, and conveniently forgets what the "Old Holocaust" really was when attempting to draw up comparisons.
Millions of Jews slaughtered in WWII versus civilians dying in an armed conflict between a country and a terrorist organization. See that's the kind of comparisons you're likely to make when some of your buddy-buddies are Iran.

And? Why should this degrade the value of his character? Does that someone make his words less credible? I don't see how.

Probably to convey an image of being of the land rather than a government authority figure. He is, after all, a populist.
Now, of course, it would be nice if he were to pursue proper investigation of antisemitic terrorism in Venezuela that has lacked any real effort by officials for two decades:
The blast on 18 July 1994 reduced the seven-storey Jewish-Argentine Mutual Association (AMIA) community centre in Buenos Aires to rubble...
The 1992 bombing of the Israeli embassy in Buenos Aires, which killed 29 people, also remains unsolved.
Argentina's Jewish community has for years sought a resolution to the attack in Buenos Aires that killed 85 people.
Islamic militants, backed by Iran, have long been suspected of carrying out the blast that wounded more than 200.

Me either, his credibility is already at the bottom of the river. How could it get any worse?

Well I'm actually more at the opposite end of the spectrum on that topic but at least we agree on something. :)

Seeing Venezuela is in the Southern Hemisphere, he cannot be the most honorable politician in the same hemisphere as Bush and Blair.
