Hugo Chávez the leader of Venezuela called the President of the United States of America the Devil in an open assembly at the United Nations, while in the United States of America on our soil; can you even imagine that?This is behavior that belongs in a third-grade sandbox fighting over plastic shovels and kicking over another kids sand castle?What has the world come to? Now we should all know by now that the easiest way to build up the team is to pick an enemy.
This is how high school football teams build their camaraderie.
It is often interesting that cross-town rival high school football teams, will actually come from the same town only there is a line drawn down through the middle of the city and half the kids go to one school and the other half to the other school.
One group the kids is the Spartans and the other are the Trojans and they hate each other.
But they use that hate to build up their team and call the opponents the bad guys.
It is quite simple and this must be how Hugo Chavez came into power in his own country, which in itself is troubling; really but does this belong in the United Nations? Hugo Chávez is trying to put together a block of countries to boycott the United States of America and stand with him and against us.
So he uses the open assembly at the United Nations to call the president of the United States the devil no doubt.
That may work with his own population there in Venezuela, but this is quite unbecoming of someone who is supposed to be a world leader and is vying for a seat on the Security Council? No way! This is unacceptable behavior and in this cannot go on.
The United Nations is to bring countries together and open dialogue and foster unity in a common cause.
Someone needs to have a talk with Hugo Chávez.
Please consider all this in 2006.
