Lets go ahead and do it. Chavez continues to say that the Americans are going to invade, so lets make his day and just do it. US planning invasion, says Chavez Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez Washington officially sees Hugo Chavez as an unfriendly leader Venezuela's President, Hugo Chavez, says he is in possession of intelligence showing that the United States plans to invade his country. In a BBC interview, Mr Chavez said the US was after his nation's oil, much as it had been after Iraq's. But he stressed that any invasion would never be allowed to happen. Mr Chavez has long accused Washington of being behind what he describes as a coup - claims the United States denies. An attempt to unseat him three years ago was aborted. The Venezuelan president was interviewed by the BBC's Robin Lustig in Paris, while on an official visit to France. George W Bush should not have any reason to fear - if he does is because he has a dark ghost in his subconscious Hugo Chavez Meeting the president Asked why he thought the US was trying to invade Venezuela, Mr Chavez said: "We have denounced intentions. "A coup happened in Venezuela that was prepared by the US. What do they want? Our oil, as they did in Iraq. "We have detected with intelligence reports plans of a supposed invasion, one that would never happen. But we have to denounce it," Mr Chavez said. Recently a US TV evangelist, Pat Robertson, called for his buttbuttination. Mr Chavez said this would be "cheaper than invading Venezuela". Mr Robertson's remarks were described by the US State Department as "inappropriate", and Mr Robertson later apologised for them.
