Chavez to FOX NEWS: FUCK OFF LIERS! HAHA

General Debate of the 64th Session (2009)-Venezuela (Bolivarian Republic of)-H.E. Mr. Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías, President-Speech Summary

H.E. Mr. Hugo Rafael Chávez Frías, President

HUGO RAFAEL CHÁVEZ FRÍAS, President of Venezuela, said that the night before, he had attended a screening of Oliver Stone’s new movie, South of the Border, in which Bolivia’s President Evo Morales was shown chewing coca leaves and saying, “Coke is not the same as coca”.  Other Presidents of Latin America had been shown in various contexts, and the movie even captured United States President Barack Obama in Trinidad, “chatting with a group of us, his hand held out, his face smiling”.  He mentioned the film because it could help decipher several enigmas of the times, chief among them the ideological warfare currently under way.

Indeed, a geopolitical revolution was under way — a moral, spiritual, comprehensive and necessary revolution, he said.  After centuries during which millions of people in Latin America and the Caribbean had suffered, the world had come to this moment.  The revolution marked the beginning of a world renewed and it would only grow with the passing of time.

As a result of that revolution, the twenty-first century would be the century of socialism.  Even Albert Einstein had concluded that the only way for the human species to live on the planet was through socialism.  Capitalism was actually a road to ruin, not allowing for change.  By contrast, the socialism of South America, which was Indian-American as well as Bolivarian, was a “heroic system” that had to be made anew.

Noting that former United States President John F. Kennedy had, just days before his assassination, observed that hunger was the main reason for the revolution in the South, he said President Kennedy had not been a revolutionary, but had been intelligent.  Likewise, the current United States President was an intelligent man.  “It doesn’t smell of sulphur here any more, it’s gone.  It smells of something else:  hope.”

Stressing hope’s potential, he urged fellow Member States to take up the challenge of translating the hope in their hearts into action.  Revising the comment made the day before by Brazilian President Lula da Silva, he said it was not true that there was no political will, only that some of the necessary will was missing.

He went on to say that those who blocked the doors to a peaceful revolution, would only make it violent, and he reminded the Assembly that while its Members were gathered in New York, one of their fellow leaders sat with a small group of people in the Brazilian embassy in Honduras.  He had spoken to Honduran President Manuel Zelayas just hours ago and now was asking for the Assembly’s resolution, as well as the resolution of the Organization of American States, to be implemented.

Outlining his further thoughts on the causes and impacts of the coup in Honduras, he suggested the Pentagon had been behind it.  Those who had had forced President Zelaya into exile had been trained by the United States and had even held him on a United States base before taking him to Costa Rica.  Those facts, according to Mr. Chavez, had created a contradiction that had caused many to wonder if there were two President Obamas.  For his part, he hoped the one who had spoken to the Assembly yesterday would prevail.

Returning to the revolution that was under way in the South, he said it was not a movement that had sprung up among guerrillas in the mountains, but was rather a democratic revolution that sought to remain peaceful.  It would not be blocked. “This is our century now.  We are going to build our own path.  No one can stop us.  Imperialism must end.”

Critiquing President Obama’s Assembly address point by point, he said that if the United States sought nuclear non-proliferation, it should destroy its own nuclear weapons.  If it sought international peace and security, it should seek peace in Colombia.  Having seven bases there was not the route to peace.  If the United States wanted to address climate change, then it should move beyond words and embark on actions, particularly by addressing the problem of over-consumption.

Finally, he promoted the conclusions of the Commission of Experts appointed by former General Assembly President Miguel d’Escoto Brockman to analyse the financial and economic crisis, and invited the United States — “the Socialist side” — to pursue a global economy that advanced opportunity for all people.  For so long everyone had been hearing about a new world order.  Clearly a new paradigm with new institutions and a new economy was needed.  Fortunately, he said, the birth of that world had already started.

President Chavez proposes to Obama an alliance for peace

September 24, 2009 – 07:34

An alliance to promote peace was the proposal that the president of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, made his U.S. counterpart, Barack Obama, while noting that the U.S. has a contradictory discourse.

During a meeting with labor unions of New York at the headquarters of the Permanent Mission of Venezuela to the United Nations Organization (UN), President Hugo Chávez said that his U.S. counterpart “today you talked to promote peace, but we should ask President Obama: If you promote peace by the seven military bases in Colombia, more soldiers, more weapons, more wars, why the U.S. Fourth Fleet in Caribbean waters, the waters of South America? A fleet peace? There are fleets of war. “Bases of peace? There are bases of war, fighter planes, men for war, weapons of war.”

In this respect, proposed to President Obama to work together to promote peace in the world. “Come on, Obama, to fight together against hunger, against disease, against poverty. Let come together becouse the challenge is great, as every president today told the UN meeting.

President Chavez said he wanted good relations with the government of President Obama, “but many people do not want. I want to talk and seek mechanisms for cooperation and that is the message I leave to the United States: I’m no threat to this country or I am not an enemy of this country…it is only that we have been demonized because they are afraid of democracy. We are the torchbearers of true democracy, of which Lincoln spoke, “he said.

In another issue, the Venezuelan president said the sale of heating fuel or heating oil at reduced prices, through Citgo, will remain in place and that has benefited one million 200 thousand people.

In Honduras there is a government of troglodytes

President Chavez said that the Council of Presidents of the ALBA is an entity “which gather and act rapidly” and talked about the return of Honduran President Manuel Zelaya to his country.

He noted that “we have been supporting the legitimate government. Manuel Zelaya has to return to the Government. We can not accept, I must tell you: To call them putschists is too little; they are cavemen, troglodytes, primitives. The Brazilian embassy was bombed and they had killed at least three people, they are angry becouse Zelaya gave the “big surprise”. A deception operation was applied by Zelaya, he ended

Chavez: “I’m sure the American people will give the great battle for change and help the world

In Conversation with labor unions in New York Chavez proposed to the U.S. President to be the initiator of true change / “The only way to save the world is socialism. There is no other way,” said the Venezuelan head of state / This Thursday afternoon will provide his address to the UN

“I call upon the American people to challenge your president: You want changes in the U.S.?. Tell him I’m here, let’s change this country, and help save this world. That depends, finally, in good measure of consciousness and awakening from the American people and you, the labor leaders, workers have to play an important role. So said President of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela, Hugo Chávez, for various American labor unions, social and religious movements, on the eve of his speech at the 64th General Assembly of the United Nations (UN).

The president said several ideas American labor movement, including a group incorporated as the ALBA alliance. He answered questions about the unity of peoples, and invited to Caracas to continue dialogue on the need to work together to make this planet a better world.

“There is a struggle that has to unite us all: the transformation of the world. The working class united will never be defeated,” he said, paraphrasing universal authors, during the meeting organized at the headquarters of the Diplomatic Mission of Venezuela to the UN in New York City.

“For me it’s good to talk here at the UN tomorrow …”, he said, to laughter from the workers and union leaders present. “You never know what’s going to speak there. I have no written speech,” said Chavez, the forward who does not know how long your speech, considering that President Obama consumed nearly an hour, and the president of Libya , Kadaffi, almost 2 hours, the first time the Libyan leader spoke in this scenario.

Socialism is the only way:

Returning to the topic, President Chávez noted that in the history of mankind, the fall of the Soviet Union (USSR) had blasted a socialist project was sabotaged by U.S. imperialism and the European right, because it considered that the USSR never was a threat to the world.

“The USSR fell and nobody stand alone. Because the socialism had long been lost in the USSR. But the only way to save the world, humanity, is socialism. There is no other way,” he said.

He said that after the fall of the Soviet ,forces rose with the neoliberal proposal, pushed by Washington, and assailed the people until they collapsed the capitalist model.

“Already, one hears presidents, starting with Obama, speaking of change, but how to change this world?. In the framework of capitalism is impossible,” he said.

He recalled Obama’s arrival to the U.S. presidency raised expectations very high, both at home and in the world, but the recent actions of the U.S. president with the case of the coup in Honduras, the continued military occupation in Iraq and Afghanistan , and the bases in Colombia produced a feeling that there are two different Obamas. “One, who gives very good speeches, and other, the reality, which takes decisions contradictory to his speech.”

The Venezuelan president called attention to the fact that Obama did not refer to the coup in Honduras. “He did not mention Honduras at the UN. That says a lot.”

Referring to the peace proposal given by Obama in his UN speech, Chavez said “should be asked: If you promote peace, why the 7 military bases in Colombia?. More soldiers, more guns, more war. Why the Fourth Fleet in Caribbean waters and South America?. “Peace Fleet? No: of war.” Bases of Peace?, No: of war. ”

“We really, together, to promote peace in Colombia, we will fight against hunger, against poverty. Now, the challenge is too big!” Invited.

Obama could initiate real changes in the U.S.:

The head of State considered that, despite these reasoned criticisms , Obama could become the initiator of a real inward change in U.S. .

“May God enlighten the Obama: the gods of Africa, whence his father came, his roots, the gods of this land of Geronimo, leader of the American Indians who resisted heroically here, I hope our God enlighten. Obama could be , could be!, the initiator of a process of inward change in U.S.

“But ask him to engage in the ruling ( of this country) here …”, suggested to American workers. “… And to forget the wars in Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, to forget the bases in Colombia. To take home these troops in the world, and those boys and girls who die for no reason, let they come back to the U.S. to fight for health, social justice. ”

“Can Obama do it?. I do not know, but I think it depends not only on Obama,” he said.

“He will have to make a decision, because they might also try to kill him!” She warned, recalling the harsh attacks that U.S. President has received some proposals for elementary social reforms he has done. “Obama is not proposing any revolution, and yet see: how far-right attacks him… attacking him becouse he is black… and for some social security proposals,” summarized.

Given this situation, President Chavez suggested to his counterpart to call together the workers and the poor, the disadvantaged, the unemployed, to mass rallies in open spaces, mass rallies and meetings.

“Why Don´t you take the streets,Obama ?…¿ Why not call up those who have no Social Security and people, especially the poor, get out to roar?. On that depends how far you can reach as president Obama, “he predicted.

“The world began to change.! The U.S. is part of this the world and can not stay behind..join the changes for mankind and a better world. We, from Caracas, say, for Socialism, the way to save the world”.

“I’m sure the American people will give the great battle for change and help the world,” he said, anticipating that his departure from that meeting, will attend alongside the president of Bolivia, Evo Morales, a special presentation of documentary Oliver Stone “South of the Border”, in a teather in New York.
