Venezuela's Chavez no threat to region -Jackson

CARACAS, Venezuela, Aug 28 (Reuters) - U.S. civil rights activist Rev. Jesse Jackson on Sunday rejected U.S. government claims that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez is a threat to regional stability and called on both governments to curb escalating rhetoric to resolve their differences.

Relations between Venezuela and the United States, strained since left-winger Chavez first won office in 1998, have deteriorated in recent weeks after U.S. Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld repeated accusations during a South American tour that Chavez was fomenting regional instability.

Jackson, who plans to meet with Chavez during a three-day visit to Venezuela, said the U.S. charges were baseless but that both sides should work to scale back their war of words.

"There is no evidence that is stated and established that this government is in fact a source of instability," Jackson told reporters at a news conference. "I hope that we would reduce the rhetoric that exacerbates tensions."

Jesse Jackson is one stupid son of a *****.
Jesse Jackson is by no means a socialist comrade, but out of the collection of oppresors that have influence in Washington he is moderate. Why do you attack him out of all targets on the war on capitalism? :huh:

Jesse Jackson is a race card playing buffoon. He does a disservice to all blacks.

Btw, I am black so save it.
Are you arguing that blacks are veiwed as equals amongs the capitalist elite of the United State's government? If so I do not understand why you refer to him as using the black race as a unjust weapon? If we keep on forgetting the past what is the point of history? From my point of view the US govt owes a great deal to the Native Americans and Africans Americans of the past and are responsible for the sub par socio-economical conditions that plague them until this day.:hammer:
