Venezuelan president threatens to cut off oil sales to US, calls Exxon Mobil 'outlaws'

President Hugo Chavez on Sunday threatened to cut off oil sales to the United States in an 'economic war' if Exxon Mobil Corp. wins court judgments to seize billions of dollars in Venezuelan assets. Exxon Mobil has gone after the assets of state oil company Petroleos de Venezuela SA in U.S., British and Dutch courts as it challenges the nationalization of a multibillion dollar oil project by Chavez's government.

    I thought they were terrorists.

    It's a good thing Venezuela has a (relatively) tough leadership under Hugo Chávez. But most important of all: he'll have the backing of the venezuelan and latin american masses in taking on these imperialist shits.

    Guess who wins in that case?
