Let Rumsfeld bark, says Chavez
…”Let the dogs of the empire bark, that’s their job,” he said. “Ours is to battle to achieve the true liberation of our people.”
Chavez said the US government was weakening already, and echoed Chinese revolutionary Mao Zedong’s idea that capitalist countries were a “paper tiger” to be challenged.
“They are right to be worried, because they know what’s happening here,” Chavez said in a speech lasting nearly three hours after accepting his prize.
“They will forever try to preserve the US empire by all means, while we will do everything possible to shred it.”
