great people
This has been a great victory for the Venezuelan people.
book castro people sleep
They've called me a new Mussolini or Fidel Castro or said I sleep with a book by Hitler for a pillow. But the people know the truth. They know who I really am.
major people
The U.S. people have a major role to play to solve, to save this planet.
oil people giving
I'm not giving away oil for free. Just using oil, first to benefit our people, to relieve poverty.
country thinking people
I think the United States and the secretary of State should be concerned about the poverty in this country - people without health insurance. The United States should stop being the empire and be concerned about other countries. You've got to be more worried about your own people.
government people limits
Venezuelan interests are to be defended by Venezuela. The U.S. should defend the interests of the U.S. Where are the U.S. people, where are the intellectuals, who could put limits on their government?
dog people president
It makes one sad to see the sell-out of President Fox, really it makes one sad. How sad that the president of a people like the Mexicans lets himself become the puppy dog of the empire.
israel people mad
Israel has gone mad. It's attacking, doing the same thing to the Palestinian and Lebanese people that they have criticised - and with reason - the Holocaust . But this is a new Holocaust.
dog jobs people
Let the dogs of the empire bark, that's their job; ours is to battle to achieve the true liberation of our people.
rights people water
Privatization is a neoliberal and imperialist plan. Health can't be privatized because it is a fundamental human right, nor can education, water, electricity and other public services. They can't be surrendered to private capital that denies the people from their rights.
beyond defended free proposed trade various yesterday
Yesterday was very interesting, ... Some defended free trade, while we proposed various alternatives beyond the mirages of a free trade agreement.
democracy measure pressure
Well we can try to measure democracy, just as you measure temperature with a thermometer, or pressure with a barometer.
