Through the website Venezuelatoday.net, not to be confused with the Government’s site Venezuelatoday.com (Thanks to the Editor of the .net one) I found the tape of the speech by Chavez where he says that he “surrendered without a shot in April 2002 but he will shoot next time around”. He then proceeds to give an anti-american sppech. The same site also carries the link to the video from Duke University’s seminar “Chavez: The end of the rule of law“

Venezuela might be a clear example of that.
