Hugo Chavez told the United Nations (and Ted Koppel) that the United States has a plan to invade Venezuela, called Project Balboa. He has apparently discovered this plan and its details.
Well... yes, but truth be told Hugo, the United States has a plan to invade every country on earth. It keeps these plans around in case some incredible, as-yet-unimaginable reason comes up that we ever would have to attack... say... Iceland or Australia: We know in advance where the best place to land or troops is, where the military bases are, where the command structure is, et cetera.
Truth be told, if you think about it as if you were somebody other than an American, it's kind of morbid (and uncool) that America has an invasion plan for your country. It's kind of like finding out that the police have a complete and customized plan put together for bursting into the Wrinkle residence, including floor plans, where I keep the knives, what locks I have on my bedroom door... not that they can imagine any need for doing such a thing at this point in time. I mean, how comfortable would America be if they discovered that China had a complete plan put together for invading Alaska?
Well... as usual, I can see both sides of the argument here.
