MÉRIDA, VENEZUELA The State oil company of Venezuela, PDVSA, confirmed today the discovery of four billion square feet of natural gas in western Venezuela, believed in June to have only been 2 billion square feet. It also confirmed that it possesses the largest single reserve of oil in the world. In addition to the estimated 78 billion barrels of conventional oil reserves, there are 235 billion more barrels of heavy and extra-heavy crude, known as Orimulsion, in the Rio Orinoco region. This means that Venezuela possesses under her soil nearly fifty percent of the total amount of oil in the entire Middle East. Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Kuwait, Abu Dhabi, Iran and Qatar have a combined total of 676 billion barrels while Venezuela´s total alone is 313 billion barrels.

This might go a long way in explaining why the Bush Administration has made extensive plans for an the invasion of Venezuela.

For several months now the Venezuelan Military has been conducting joint exercises with the civilian population in preparation for national emergencies like "earthquakes, tsunamis and invasions by foreign forces." They have also made recent purchases of 100,000 small arms and helicopters from Russia and begun developing plans to build up a national civilian defense force to repel any foreign aggression.

na ja, ob die USA nach Irak und Afghanistan ein weiteres "Schweinebucht-Desaster" provozieren wollen .... da gäbs schon andere Mittel, Chavez in die Knie zu zwingen, z.B. ein Embargo wie bei Kuba, wenn bloß die verd..... Abhängigkeit von dem Öl nicht wäre ....
