Dear Colleague,

 

Towards the end of the two-day session by the Organization of American

States (OAS) in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, the U.S. ambassador to the

organism, Roger Noriega, threw a temper tantrum.

 

After all, Washington had just received a stunning rebuke from the other

countries around the table against its proposal to create mechanisms for

foreign meddling in the affairs of other countries (read: Venezuela), and

Bolivian President Carlos Mesa had just offered his resignation in the face

of a massive popular movement to nationalize the Bolivian gas industry.

 

Noriega, not used to losing gracefully, simply blew his top, spitting loudly

that Venezuelan President Hugo Chávez is to blame for Bolivia's crisis.

 

Noriega has a point, but not in the way he thinks he has it...
