Chavez: Colombia Plans 'Aggression'
Quote:
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Hugo Chavez on Friday accused neighboring Colombia and the United States of plotting a military "aggression" against Venezuela.
"I accuse the government of Colombia of devising a conspiracy, acting as a pawn of the U.S. empire, of devising a military provocation against Venezuela," Chavez said.
"A military aggression is being prepared from Colombia against Venezuela," Chavez said, linking the U.S. to the alleged plot. He claimed that Washington aims to "oblige us to respond, and later a war could be set off."

Seems much much more likely to be a cover story for his giving more overt aid to rebels in Colombia then anything else.
This way he can claim the USA and Colombia are plotting to attack so his aid to the guerillas is just defensive...and many a wanna be communist/leftist/US hater will buy it.
It also can be used to say see they are after us and only Benevolant Benito..err Hugo can save us!
