    Operation Carwash by the Justice Dept. uses accusations of corruption and in Venezuela's case, drug charges, to remove powerful officials in Latin America. It's probably a believeable lie cause Chavez once praised the FARC, which is for good reason, but he also might have had a soft spot since his grandfather was part of a communist guerilla. Also Colombia/Venezuela, the same thing for the uninformed American.
