According to the Bolivian daily, La Razon, Bolivia also plans to send a formal complaint to the Israeli government over the allegation. “There isn’t even a geological study (of uranium deposits), much less export” of uranium to another country, said Mining Minister Luis Alberto Echazu, according to the Associated Press. The Israeli Foreign Ministry report also accused Venezuela of supplying Iran with uranium, a key ingredient for nuclear energy and arms. According to AP, Venezuela has yet to comment on the report. Iran rejects Western accusations that it is seeking a nuclear weapon, saying its atomic work is solely for peaceful purposes.

WHO IN THE US PRESS WILL STEP UP--NO ONE!! Is Venezuela the New Niger? The Bush Administration is Trying to Link Hugo Chavez to Iran's Nuclear Program---a script, at this point at least, entirely based on phony or no evidence--like the spurious yellowcake of Niger which provided the basis for U.S. intervention in Iraq. By conceivably tying Chávez into the Iranian crisis, the Bush administration possibly could be laying the groundwork for its own dirty tricks campaign. By LARRY BIRNS and MICHAEL LETTIERI |
