Chavez condemns Israeli retaliation

Venezuela's chunky commie president Hugo Chavez condemned Israel for defending itself...of course.

President Hugo Chavez says Venezuela condemns Israel for its attacks on Hamas-ruled Gaza.

Israel bombed key security installations Saturday, leaving more than 200 Palestinians dead and more than 400 wounded. Palestinian officials say at least 15 civilians were among the dead.

The Israeli army says Palestinian militants have fired 300 rockets and mortars at Israeli targets over the past week.

But Chavez on Saturday called Israel's retaliation "criminal" and urged a "massive campaign of repudiation."

Yeah...in the delusional mind of Chavez, Israel's right of self-defense is criminal. Hamas targeting civilians with rockets and mortars? Not so much.
