"Does who benefit from this or these violent acts? Neither the government
nor the people or the revolution benefit from this. Efforts are under way to
disturb the climate prevailing in Venezuela," stated President Hugo Chavez
on Sunday referring to an attack early on January 31st against a synagogue
located in Maripérez, north Caracas.
"They are trying to change the dynamics that is under way; they are trying
to break a trend that is under way, and you exactly what I mean. They are
trying to cast a shadow over a people's victory whose date has actually been
set on the calendar," Chávez said in a mandatory radio and television
address.
"It's them! It was them!," stressed the ruler. "I am making this statement
before the country. Mr. Minister (of the Interior and Justice) Tareck El
Aissami, we will do everything in our power, everything possible under the
law, to demonstrate the real causes behind this act," the Venezuelan ruler
added.
"The oligarchy is violent. Oligarchy kills, plots, threatens to set Caracas
ablaze, burns Avila mountain (a mountain range north Caracas), and uses some
soulless youth as cannon fodder, by driving them to violent acts."
