Bush still the devil, CIA trying to kill me: Chavez

[Janbaz]

NEW YORK: Firebrand Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has defended his description of President George W. Bush as the devil, in an interview accusing the US intelligence services of plotting to kill him.

In his first comments to the US media since he called Bush a "devil" at the United Nations last September, Chavez said he stood by his speech but that personal remarks about Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice were only a joke.

"Yes, I call him a devil in the United Nations," Chavez said in the interview with an American television, which was due to be broadcast later Thursday.

"That's true. Another time, I said that he was a donkey just because I think that he is very ignorant -- about the things that are actually happening in Latin America and the world," he added.

Chavez made the devil comment at last year's General Assembly, addressing the United Nations just hours after Bush had stood at the same lectern.

"If that is an excess on my side, I accept. And I might apologize. But who is causing more harm? He burns people, villages and he invades nations."

Chavez also accused Bush of planning a coup against him and said the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) was trying to assassinate him. "If something happens to me, if I get killed, the president of the United States should be held responsible," he said.

But in one possible olive branch to the United States, he said his previous comments that Rice was an illiterate who suffered from sexual frustration were just meant as a joke. "As a lady I respect her, for the president of the United States, as a human being, I respect him, but they are killing people," he said.

Chavez said he refused to endorse any candidate for the 2008 US presidential election but said he would have no difficulty in winning if he could run.

Well, insome way I can see that Latin America it is in eye's world, but unfortunality with the wrong person.

It is not new, that in Latin America, therre is a kind of animadversation to the US, by dramitcal events, we have on all of our history, manyof them blame tothe bigg brother of the north America by the critical conditions talking about the social, economy, and other issues, no mater what many countries are looking to have participation in world orchesta, with the incursion in free trade markets, but other people say to do that specially with the United States it is equal to surrender thenational soberany, and of course the speakers of this section in LA, is president Hugo Chavez using despective calification to the presidente of the US trying to create a inestable weather for the region.

In some way America's gouverment chose to ignore all thespeachof this show man and focus to the most important, I think we have to do the same in every country from the Latin America's region.:army:
