The leader of the Bolivarian Revolution, Hugo Chávez Frías, from the city of Doha, Qatar, on March 31, 2009, thanked the experience of coming into contact with the Arab People and strengthened the joint struggle against imperialism.

“One of the most terrible circumstances that the world is experiencing today comes back to the soul, to the memory, to the conscience: Cynicism, shameless cynicism. Oh...! When they won the elections there in Palestine, the men and women of Hamas, the Yankee Empire and Europe said they didn't recognize that because Hamas doesn't recognize the State of Israel,” Chávez said.

In this regard, he highlighted the situation of the parties that support the Israeli government and do not recognize Palestine: “let's see what the United States says, let's see what Europe says. They should have the same attitude, if they were consistent and had the slightest respect for ethics, for the dignity of peoples.”

He also stressed that the President of the United States (USA), Barack Obama accused Venezuela of supporting terrorism “the Secretary of State, and that Venezuela tramples its people”.

“Oh! But the genocide against the Palestinians is not terrorism, that is not terrorism, it is that Israel is, as the good empire says, defending itself, making use of its legitimate defense. What cynicism! This is one of the greatest evils that the world has today and we must denounce it, I believe, everywhere we go, as Christ the Redeemer said, “hypocritical Pharisees”, hypocrisy made political,” said Commander Chávez.

He also questioned why “the International Criminal Court (ICC) is not after George W. Bush, that genocidal person who ruled the United States for 8 years and who sent the people of Iraq to be mercilessly bombed, where thousands and thousands of children, entire families, innocent men and women have died. Why don't they go after Bush? That this is a real genocide or because of the government of Israel, which is another genocidal government.”
