Colombia's police chief, Gen. Oscar Naranjo, said documents found at the FARC camp in Ecuador showed evidence that Chavez gave the rebels $300 million and had suggested a deal to supply them with old rifles.
Interesting... FARC grabs hostages, Chavez meets with FARC under guise of negotiation for hostage release, offers FARC $300M and gun deal, gets a few hostages released to look good... Displays "righteous indignation" at Ecuador excursion and immediately escalates...

If true, sounds like 'ol Hugo is trying to draw Columbia and their ally, the US into a war...
Looks like a classic case of someone getting caught with their hand in the FARC cookie jar, and trying to make it look like it was all someone else's fault - yeah, they're making it up, yeah, that's the ticket...I'm innocent, and the USA is being mean to me.
