Chávez and Venezuelan Interior minister were on AUC target list
Venezuelan President, Hugo Chávez, and his Interior and Justice Minister, Ramón Rodríguez Chacín, were on the list of military targets of one faction of the right-wing paramilitary group United Self-Defense Forces of Colombia (Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia, AUC), according to a report published by Colombian newspaper El Tiempo.

The AUC was created by Carlos Castaño, the slain leader of the paramilitary group, according to the data of a USB flashcard handed over to the Prosecutor's Office by a former AUC commander, Efe reported.

Colombian prosecutors received the device last week from the demobilized AUC commander Éver H.H .Veloza in northwest Colombia, a region that was controlled by Carlos Castaño.


The Venezuelan paramilitary faction was going to be headed by a commander under the alias of Antonio del Billa, said El Tiempo. According to the Colombian newspaper, "his main action was to declare as military targets Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez and his current minister Ramón Rodríguez Chacín, for allegedly supporting the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC)."

4. It's hard to imagine there have been many worse people who have walked on the earth than this guy.
He was PURE EVIL, and he was completely open in acknowledging his total lack of respect for human life. He gave an interview to a reporter discussing journalists he had killed.

There was nothing too low, too vicious, too heartless, too filthy that it was abhorrant to him.

They can bury the truth around Uribe for a while longer, but eventually it will ALL be known, just as it's happening with Pinochet, whom God blessed by allowing him to go ahead and die rather than face the consequences of his evil time on earth, and be confronted face-to-face by relatives of his tortured/murdered political prisoners.
