would make a citizen's arrest of this war criminal and send him to the International Criminal Court in The Hague!

This man should never be given power. Look what he did in Central America. He is responsible for the killing of hundreds of thousands in Guatemala. Remember, Venezuela has the world’s largest petroleum reserves.

He and his cohorts are responsible for a lot of pain and suffering across Central and South America.
