The supposed laptop files must be corroborated by other evidence if Chavez is to be indicted as a collaborator with the FARC. I understand that the laptop "files" could have been manufactured by those wanting to discredit Chavez. It doesn't make sense that there would be clear links from a terrorist organization to Chavez, so it makes more sense that the files evidence is simply a false evidence operation to discredit him.

americans seem to suffer from stockholm syndrome. they're unable to notice what america has done in south america since monroe, they wake up and see retaliation/self defense in a vacuum and think that the south americans have no rights to do in their own back yard what america has been doing to them in their own back yard.
farc is not the most notorious terrorist group in south america. The cia is.
nobody is more sure of his position than a moron.

Que tristeza me da leer el articulo de Michael Garrett (capitalizando de la miseria y la desesperacion).
Me atrevo a copiar a todos a ver si alguien puede despertar de este
letargo y asumir su responsabilidad social. Con esto me refiero a
seguir las normas del juego democratico o mejor aun las normas de la
logica y el razocinio.
Hugo Chavez no caera nunca de esta manera. Con noticias, informaciones
o chismes como este. No existe ninguna evidencia solida que pueda
usarse para soportar un caso legal en contra del presidente.
Emails como este solo sirven para satisfacer las necesidades de
algunos de ver resultados rapidos e ilogicos. El cambio que
necesitamos no vendra con batallas como esta, completamente infundada,
sin ninguna fuente seria a la cual referirse. Solo con hacer una
busqueda en google o bing sobre Michael Garrett es suficiente para
entender que esto proviene del mismo sitio que la informacion en este
articulo: irracionalidad, desesperacion, falta de ideas, falta de
seriedad. Ni una sola referencia a un periodico serio.
Solo pensar que Hugo Chavez esta ligado al narcotrafico es tan
irracional como pensar que Barack Obama nacio en Kenya, que el Papa
Benedicto XVI esta detras de la masacre de los judios en el
holocausto, que Bin Laden es un agente de la CIA y que Jesucristo vino
a salvarnos a todos y todavia estamos en este desastre.
Estar conciente de la realidad nacional e internacional, toma tiempo y
esfuerzo. Entender la realidad politica no es facil pero es posible.
Despertar de la ilusion de una Venezuela de mentira en la cual los
problemas se pueden resolver con chismes y con falsas ilusiones de
derrocamiento fue lo que nos puso en este aprieto desde el comienzo.
Es irracional pensar que el secretario general de la OEA es ahora
"amigo" de Hugo Chavez solo porque le adherio a la razon, la logica y
las leyes internacionales que nuestro pais firmo hace muchos anos. Es
la misma postura que se asumio cuando Jimmy Carter y Cesar Gaviria
certificaron las elecciones venezolanas.
No aprender de nuestros errores nos llevara inevitablemente a
repertirlos y creer que son nuevos.
Estoy convencido esta respuesta despertara la furia de algunos sin
embargo espero sinceramente despierte la logica en otros.

Las respuestas nos las da el mismo Michael Garret:
Chávez --dice-- se ha convertido en el más grande narcotraficante de América, según lo sabe el Congreso de Estados Unidos. Y continúa: "El verdadero negocio del narcotráfico no es vender drogas sino tener RUTAS DE TRÁFICO. El que tiene una ruta, tiene un verdadero y multimillonario negocio de tráfico de drogas y Chávez desarrolló en Honduras la RUTA PERFECTA, para distribuir drogas procedentes de Bolivia y de las FARC en Colombia, llevadas de allí a México y luego a USA". Honduras era su principal puente de drogas dice Garret, donde catorce avionetas con bandera venezolana, han caído ya con drogas y dinero. De allí que Chávez no quiere perder en Honduras la ruta más importante de drogas en América, con más de cien millones de dólares mensuales.
Escribo esto mientras Zelaya se dirige a Honduras. Pido a Dios que este malvado no logre su propósito de derramar la sangre de su propio pueblo.

In todays world one only has to take a short glance at the Colombian Government to realize that it is corrupt. Uribe has a problem with letting go of his power, when it was Musharaff the world recognized it for what it was immediately. The term 'money hole' comes to mind. We've been there since Pablo, one mistake after another. The money goes and do we get what we pay for. The simple answer is no. We can point fingers and put the blame on many things, even Hugo. In truth however they will do anything to stop the truth from getting out. It's Judicial Branch can't do it's job, if it were America every democrat in the crowd would be outraged. If we keep investing in corruption it will bite us.
I feel pity for the Colombian people who have had to put up with American arrogance and America turning it's head to the thousands of missing bodies from 40+ years of war. The burden is borne by both side in that country. We just pay for it.

For how long one can cover up the FACT that the US govt paid $20m as ransom for the hostages. The alleged material recovered from the "laptops" were emails and nowhere in those emails is there any mention of 300 million dollars. Instead the conversation in the emails is about 300 (hostages), because that's what the negotiations were basically for. To release 300 hostages out of some 700 hundered total. Media can tell a lie, because they can. But can not hide the facts for very long.
Shame on your journal and journalism.

THERE ARE TWO KIND OF PEOPLE: MORONS (CHAVEZ-FARC'S SUPPORTERS) AND PEOPLE THAT APPRECIATE GOOD GOVERMENT (USA AND COLOMBIA). How could it possible that some people support a government that buys US$5b in weapons instead of using this money to improve the life of its own people? Inflation is soaring in Venezuela and freedom of speech is becoming ever more restricted. What Chavez has done to help Venezuelans?
I feel pity for Venezuelan people!
