BOGOTA – Colombia's defense chief joked Monday that Venezuelan troops might have mistaken Santa's sleigh for a spy plane, dismissing accusations by President Hugo Chavez about drones flying over Venezuela.
Chavez on Sunday accused the United States of violating Venezuela's airspace with an unmanned spy plane and ordered his military to be on alert and shoot down any such aircraft.
The Pentagon has declined to comment on Chavez's accusations.
Colombian Defense Minister Gabriel Silva and armed forces commander Freddy Padilla told reporters Monday that Colombian aircraft couldn't fly the kind of espionage mission described by Chavez.
"Colombia doesn't have that capability," said Silva. He quipped that perhaps "Venezuelan soldiers mistook Father Christmas' sleigh for a spy plane."
Padilla said Colombia has only small, unmanned surveillance planes that it uses to monitor pipelines and other installations against sabotage by rebel groups.
"They don't have any firepower and what they do is observe to prevent attacks on electrical towers," Padilla said.
Silva and Padilla did not discuss U.S. military capabilities at Colombian bases.
Chavez has accused Colombia of allowing the United States to use its military bases to prepare a possible attack on Venezuela.
Both the U.S. and Colombia have denied such allegations in the past, saying the U.S. military presence is for the sole purpose of giving support to Colombia in combatting drug traffickers and rebels.
Tensions between Venezuela and neighboring Colombia have been high for months amid Chavez's accusations of warmongering and Colombian President Alvaro Uribe's allegations that Venezuela has harbored Colombian rebel leaders.
JACK MILLER has some major issues. He is a fool, he is a complete retard. Though the common douchebag thinks he is accepted by the people around him, yet is completely ignorant to how pathetic he appears to others.
ReplyDeleteJACK MILLER, yet never catches on to the fact that he comes across as a total loser. He fancies himself a ladies’ man, yet tends to be a joke to all but the most naive of women but only succeeds in his own mind. Who comes across as a wannabe overcompensating for his insecurities. -Mike
JACK MILLER A douchebag will often bring his SLR to bars to take pictures of good looking girls (with or without their permission), perhaps pretending to be a professional photographer. He will try to be in as many photos as possible (often posing with his arms around total strangers or his friends’ girlfriends) and post them on his personal websites in an effort to convince his online community that he is a bigtime bar-star. He is also likely to boast about his "conquests" (usually exaggerated or fabricated), failing to realize that this only serves to impress fellow douchebags.
