CARACAS, Venezuela -- President Hugo Chavez has recently accused
President Bush of plotting to assassinate him, made suggestive comments
about Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, visited Fidel Castro in
Cuba, bashed the United States on the al-Jazeera television network and
traveled to Libya to receive an award from Moammar Gaddafi.
Such bluster and anti-American showmanship are nothing new from the
fiery former paratrooper. But concern in Washington has been rising as
Chavez has worked feverishly in recent months to match his words with
deeds.
