Venezuelan foreign ministry's cynical response to Libya's genocide

A communique released today by Venezuelan Foreign Minister Nicolas Maduro reveals that the ample collaboration between the Venezuelan and Libyan government will probably go until the last bullet.

The communique, released simultaneously as Libyan airplanes were bombing civilian protesters outlines how Maduro is being kept informed about the current developments in direct communication with Libya's Foreign Minister Moussa Koussa. The main purpose of the communique was to perhaps clarify that Gadaffi was not on his way to Venezuela, as the British Foreign minister speculated, yet its language of deception was simply hilarious.

The press release, which makes no reference of the ongoing massacre, relates how Maduro was informed that "the leader Muammar Gadaffi is in Tripoli exercising the powers that the state confers onto him and its dealing with the ongoing situation in the country."

Besides other euphemisms, Maduro reassured its ongoing communication and collaboration with the murderous Libyan government:"Finally, the foreign ministers of Libya and Venezuela agreed to keep in touch to exchange information in first hand about the evolution of the developments in the brother land."
