Iran and Venezuela

I generally have been posting about Venezuela over this last year and of course Iran is all over the news. Today the Officers' club connects the two in ways that we'd rather not think about.

Castro smart enough to keep Iranian medium range ballistic missiles off of his lawn, but Chavez wants attention and respect, and is willing to take the necessary steps to play ball with the big boys. Leeden may be on to something here, I say throw Venezuela into the same lot as North Korea, Syria, and Iran, and stick Chavez --like Hassad, Ahmadinejad, and Kim Jong-Il-- on the "men that need to be spanked" list.
