Iranian Anti-Semitism...in Latin America?

While the United States looks with concern to the potentially dangerous activities of the North Korean and Iranian regimes, there are things happening a lot closer to us that might, in the long run prove far more dangerous.

The man most responsible for this is Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez, and he has apparently taken his lead from Iran's leading racist and anti-Semite, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. Chavez is not only in tight with Ahmadinejad with the aim of becoming a Latin American nuclear power, but he has also been playing host to terrorists from Hezbollah. And echoing his Iranian mentor, Chavez has begun to attack Jews as the source of all problems in the world. His goal, of course, is nuclear proliferation and the spread of terrorism in the Western hemisphere, and just guess who will be the ultimate target.

Allied with Chavez in all this is ousted Honduran strongman wannabe, Manuel Zelaya. Zelaya was deposed and exiled because of his overt violations of the Honduran constitution, but has since sneaked back into the country and is now hanging out at the Brazilian embassy. He and his supporters have been very vocal in blaming Zelaya's problems on the Jews. Other than the constant stream of anti-Semitic drivel that flows from the Islamic nations in the Middle East these days, we haven't heard anything like this since the Third Reich.

Equally disturbing is that our president is siding with Zelaya and Chavez (and the Cubans) by demanding that Zelaya be returned to power.
