Venezuela is not our trading partner. We are the recipient of their largess. This is not a ideologically simpatico relationship, but one of financial consideration. What happens in Venezuela is of huge concern for us and many other countries in the Caribbean in Petrocaribe, for medical and cold hard cash, huge sums for Belize. Nothing political about it. Just pragmatic. Beggars can't be choosers.

And by the way...from 2004-2007 Belize actually exported to Venezuela.

9 days before they decide to investigate the pilots. Brilliant

Britain's Daily Mail on Sunday, citing police sources, reported that Captain Zaharie Ahmad Shah, 53, was an "obsessive" supporter of Malaysian opposition leader Anwar Ibrahim, who was sentenced to five years in prison.
Britain's Sunday Telegraph added that investigators were examining whether the jet's disappearance was tied to a 9/11-style plot masterminded by Al Qaeda's Khalid Sheik Mohammad. Such a plot was mentioned by a British-born Saajid Badat earlier this week at the New York trial of Usama bin Laden's son-in-law Sulaiman Abu Ghaith.
Badat said that a Malaysia-based Al Qaeda cell of four or five people had planned to take control of a plane, using a shoe bomb to gain access to the cockpit. He added that he had met the jihadists, one of whom claimed he was a pilot, at a terror camp in Afghanistan and given them a shoe bomb for use. The Sunday Telegraph reported that one target of the attack may have been the Petronas Towers in Kuala Lumpur, formerly the tallest buildings in the world.http://www.foxnews.com/world/2014/03/16/pilots-become-focus-malaysia-airlines-investigation/
