 Answer to a Question
Question:
We do know that Latin America is in the backyard of the United States and that the Monroe Doctrine is still in force and it includes the two Americas. However, it seems that some of Latin America’s rulers are hostile towards America. They even challenge her and condemn her hegemony and arrogance. Those rulers are spearheaded by Hugo Chavez, who gave the US Ambassador to Caracas 72 hours to leave his country, in a show of solidarity with a similar move undertaken by the Bolivian President Evo Morales. Hence, does Hugo Chavez effectively work towards frustrating the US influence in Latin America and towards luring her leaders? Is he working towards resisting the US meddling in Latin American affairs? Is Hugo Chavez acting independently to protect the acquisitions of his country; or is he sponsored and backed by other forces? Is he an American agent, just like all the other rulers of Latin America or has he succeeded in slipping away from America’s dominion and influence? Could we have the reality of the Venezuelan president, his actions and his policies in Venezuela and in the other countries of Latin America clarified?

Political Chinwag
America and maritime piracy in Somalia
The maritime piracy acts off the Somali coast have since 1991 started to gradually spread from the coasts to the high seas and deep oceans. It has also been noticed that these piracy operations are not initiated and concluded in the whole of Somalia, but in the area close to the coast of Puntland, specifically the Port of Eyl, located in a very remote mountainous region. After it succeeded in separating Somaliland from the rest of Somalia in 1991, Ethiopia, supported by the US, incited some of the heads of the tribes in the Puntland region, under the leadership of Abdullahi Yusuf (the current Somali president) and provided them with the funds and weapons they needed, to help achieve the project of separating Puntland from the unified Somalia in 1998. Ethiopia, supported by the CIA and under the pretext of fighting terrorism, continues to train the militias, provide them with weapons and pays the security officers in the Puntland in order to maintain the status quo.

The Political Comment
The Jewish war machine continues to unleash its bombs on Gaza, tearing the bodies of women, children, elderly and youths, and destroying their homes, mosques, schools and livelihoods, while hundreds of thousands of soldiers, officers and commanders of the so-called frontline countries stand debilitated behind their silent guns, prevented by their leaders who have pledged their volition to the Western Kafir led by America, from defending their brethren against the cowardly Jews. Those commanders and officers were not moved by the call of Allah to them from the seventh heaven: “And why should you not fight in the cause of Allah and of those who, being weak, are ill-treated men, women, and children, whose cry is: "Our Lord! Rescue us from this town, whose people are oppressors; and raise for us from you one who will protect; and raise for us from you one who will help.” [TMQ 4-75]
