One does not hear a whisper of this imperialist aggression in MSM.
Oh, we heard about how our government bombed the hell out of a FARC camp killing everyone there as they slept. And we heard about the magic laptops that survived the apocalyptic assault on said camp. And we heard what the imperialists said were on the miraculously indestructible wonders of science: That Chavez is a terrorist supporter.
You know, they should reverse engineer the magic laptops and make the Pentagon out of the same stuff... or perhaps body armor for the poor stooges carrying out the aggression for them on the ground. Or maybe IED armor for their war machines.
Just a thought.

Colombia says no US base planned on border with Venezuela - International Herald Tribune
CARACAS, Venezuela: President Hugo Chavez is warning Colombia against any U.S. military base near its border with Venezuela, though neither Colombia nor the United States have publicly suggested such a plan.
Chavez said in a televised speech Wednesday that "it's good news" that Colombian Defense Minister Juan Manuel Santos had denied that a U.S. base could be set up in the coastal La Guajira region.
There has been speculation in some news media that a base in the area might replace a U.S. drug-monitoring operation at Manta in Ecuador, which President Rafael Correa says he'll close next year.
Chavez warned that any such plan would force Venezuela to revive a decades-old territorial conflict by staking a claim to the La Guajira region.
"We will not allow the Colombian government to give La Guajira to the empire," Chavez said, referring to the U.S. "Colombia is launching a threat of war at us."
