Could be crap, but reports of Chavez sending Venezuelan riot troops to Iran to help Ahmadinejad

Reports are circulating that Venezuela has sent anti-riot troops to Tehran to help Ahmadinejad, joining Hezbollah members from Palestine and Lebanon who are employed by the Islamic government as anti-riot police — the reason such forces are being brought in is that some of the Iranian police are unwilling to hit people as ordered and some are even joining the protesters.

1. On Delta Airlines?

I'm sorry, that was first impulse.

I guess he would have sent them before the election.

[RollWithIt]

4. lol, they've got their own air force :-)

It's unlikely though.

[EFerrari]

2. I thought that outlet had lost its RW funding?

[Billy Burnett]

3. Isn't Joe the Plumber a "journalist" for pajamasmedia? n/t

[armyowalgreens]

33. He was for a while. I don't know if he is now.

[BuyingThyme]

5. These stories are getting a little silly.

Who would refuse to hit people?

[timeforpeace]

6. Pajamas media? What the heck is that?

And no, don't believe it. Dinnerjacket's got what, hundreds of thousands of troops at his disposal? More? Plus nukes? Naw, he's cool.

[EFerrari]

9. Isn't it the Little Green Footballs guys?

Funny. Hugo Chavez must have rug burns from being dragged into everything. lol

[wyldwolf]

7. As Rome Burns, Clinton, Obama & The MSM Fiddle

Read that there, too.

[BlooInBloo]

8. Um, Pajamas Media? BWAHAAHAHAAA!!!

[NWHarkness]

10. PJ Media thinks Obama is a Kenyan Muslim too

So, why bring their nonsense here?

[Kitty Herder]

27. I'm wonder why it's been posted here, too.

Pajamas Media is a right-wing mess with no credibility.

[Bolo Boffin]

39. A Kenseyian Muslim!!!@!

Those are the worst kind.

[Blue Meany]

11. Iranians have reported on twitter that there have been non-Persians

patrolling the streets in Kirmanshah and that two were captured and were found to be Palestinian and Yemeni. There are other reports that Lebanese, presumed to be Hamas have been patrolling with the Basij.

[EFerrari]

15. Chavez doesn't even like to use riot troops on domestic demos

and has been criticized repeatedly at home for letting them get too far out of hand.

[Billy Burnett]

16. If it's on Twitter then it must be true.

:eyes:



Hey, it's not like the US doesn't ops working tweeting their little fingers to the bone. What do you think all of that money for 'support for the opposition' is paying for?

[tsuki]

19. Why would Iran bring in armed and trained Sunnis to patrol in Kirmanshah? nt

[Garbo 2004]

28. Anyone can post anything on twitter...including urban rumor and agiprop. nt

[onehandle]

12. IMPORTANT UPDATE ON THIS STORY!!!

Chavez is sending Bigfoot instead of Venezuelan riot troops.

He started his swim... now.

[Sebastian Doyle]

40. Why would he send Bigfoot?

When his cousin the Yeti lives a lot closer (up in the Himalayas)

Of course we do have the Sasquatch Militia up here in Cascadia, but they avoid foreign entanglements.

[OilemFirchen]

13. I heard

that Ward Churchill, Bill Ayers, and Jeremiah Wright smuggled Monica Lewinsky into Teheran with Vince Foster's head in a duffel bag. Decorated with condoms and "W" keys.

Could be crap, too.

[Warren DeMontague]

14. "Pajamas media" = undoubtedly crap.

[tularetom]

17. I'm oretty sure anything in Pajamas Media is crap

[Duer 157099]

18. Hard to imagine a more unimaginable scenario

it just don't make no sense

[Kitty Herder]

26. That's what I thought.

This isn't even a little bit believable.

[Richard Steele]

20. @ seconds worth of "pondering the logistics" ia all you need to know that this is CRAP.

That won't stop FOXNews and Limbaugh from making it their
"topic of the week" starting tomorrow.

[EFerrari]

21. The Chavez - Iran super hero team is a favorite RW scenario.

Maybe Doug Schoen wrote this story. :)

[Richard Steele]

37. That's the thing about the RWers: they have no ability to deal with actual real-life situations...

Everything has to be a cartoonish black/white "SCENARIO" to them.

REAL LIFE involves real people, and real people create SITIATIONS.
Situtions come in an infinite number of shades of GREY,
never black or white.

There are no SCENARIOS in real life. The word itself makes that clear.

[opihimoimoi]

22. Bad Move if true....this invites other players into the fray...much OIL and Souls at stake.

[Chulanowa]

23. So, let's see...

We've got Hezbollah troops, we've got Venezuelan troops, who's next? North Korea? Oh, oh, how about the DNC, considering the source?

[tiny elvis]

24. something happening here

reports of Chavez sending Venezuelan riot troops to Iran

Reports Of Iranian Police (Hezbollah?) Round Up And Killing Children
http://niacblog.wordpress.com/2009/06/14/election-unrest-day-two

babies thrown from incubators
dogs and cats, living together

[Garbo 2004]

25. Considering the source & the fact it is "reporting" rumors as "news." It's crap & propaganda.

Does anyone seriously believe Iranian gov't forces/police are miraculously less likely to engage in confrontations and combat with their citizens than any other gov't's forces and cops in the world?

PJ "media" is a right wing outfit. What next, Newsmax?

[AlCzervik]

29. Fact or Crap? I'll go with Crap.

[alcibiades_mystery]

30. Posting bullshit from Pajamas Media?

Are you stupid?

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

31. Yeah. And, Fidel's packing '54 Plymouths with troops to do his bit.

[EFerrari]

36. LOL

[cali]

32. bwahahaha. Pajamasmedia? It's not just crap. it's a steaming pile of it.

[Lydia Leftcoast]

34. Look at the rest of the headlines and you KNOW they're

right-wing fantasists.

Just THINK (unlike a right-winger). Iran has a large and highly trained army. Why would they need to import troops from Venezuela, of all places?

That makes as much sense as the U.S. importing riot troops from Mozambique.

[JackRiddler]

35. Help! Soviet MiGs will land at Grenada, Nicaragua's just a ten-hour drive from Texas...

and Saddam's lining up to invade Saudi Arabia!

[Sebastian Doyle]

38. Isn't "pajamasmedia" the same outfit that sent Samuel Weaselfucker the scab plumber to Israel

So he could brag to all the Muslims and Jews in the region that Jesus was his personal bodyguard.
