    well check this out...allegedly cuba offered the same thing....heres the link http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/07/27/155516.php

    they are keeping things hushed as much as possible....funny how these offerings were made before all this georgia crap

    "It is not clear that Cuba actually made a similar offer, although it was reported that Russia is considering the establishment of military bases in Cuba.

    Russia is considering the use of bases in Cuba for its nuclear bombers, in a move that revives memories of the 1962 Cuban missile crisis, according to reports in a Russian newspaper.

    Russian military sources said that Moscow is contemplating using Cuba as a refuelling base for its nuclear-bomb carrying aircraft. The move would be in retaliation for the Bush administration's plan to site a missile defense shield in Europe. . . . Russia today officially denied the report but the fact that it had appeared in a newspaper so closely affiliated with the Kremlin encouraged observers to take it seriously - if only as a way of showing Russia's anger at the US missile shield. . . . "Russia, guided by its peaceful policy, is not creating military bases at the borders of other states," Russian news agencies quoted Ilshat Baichurin, acting head of the Russian defense ministry's information department, as saying.

    It would seem strange for the Russian press to raise such a possibility without prior governmental consultation with Cuba. Fidel Castro, in a cryptic statement, praised his brother, Raul, for maintaining a dignified silence but neither confirmed nor denied the reports. "

    This is something I find very intersting. I want to share this video with you: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7nD7dbkkBIA.

    First off, this video is an interview with Aaron Russo (maker of the movie "America: Freedom to Fascism"). In this video he tells about how he was friends with Nick Rockefeller and that he told him about their New World Order agenda. Rockefeller told Russo 11 monthes before 911 that their was going to be an "event", and out of that event, there was going to be an endless war on terror. But what I found most amazing is that he talked about war with venezuela and Hugo Chavez. If there is a war with venezuela, is it possible that this whole war on terror was really staged by the elite?

    I don't want to throw out a bunch of conspiracy at you guys, but this is something that can't be ignored!
