#4  However, the Venezuelan military is corrupt and incompetent. In Bolivar state the army is fighting the local militia over control of gold mining..

This is more likely a way for the army to cash in than it is to develop a crack military force.

#3  Yeah, those are in Santa Cruz. They're planning to put down secessionary elements with force. Paraguay and Brazil are just the windowdressing.

I mean, hell. Is the socialist-leftist president of Brazil gonna invade? He was a sort-of ally of Chavez and Morales until they pissed in his wine cup once too often.
