Default South American War?

what do you guys think of the situation with South America possibly going to war? Do you think that the U.S will have to get involved if it happens. Were already in close relations with colombia.

Nobody in the US will care until coffee prices are effected. When Starbucks has to raise their prices due to this, then you'll see the public pay attention.

Not sure. I mean, obviously we're not exactly friendly with Chavez, but I don't think Bush will jump in it. Probably will wait for someone else to step in. Spain maybe?

:werd: I hope its just sabre rattling.
There is no reason for us to get involved, although it would give the US a reason to accidentally take out Chavez and kill him by accident.

Lets finish the job in Iraq before we try to flex our muscle anywhere else.
