Given the circumstances, in how BushCo regime operates, I can believe that this may happen. If it does, Chavez vows that his oil exports to the USA will stop.

Venezuela's president, Hugo Chavez, accused George Bush of plotting to assassinate him yesterday, and warned that all Venezuelan oil exports to the US would stop in the event of his death.
"If I am assassinated, there is only one person responsible: the president of the United States," Mr Chavez said during his weekly radio and television show, Hello President.
He offered no proof of any conspiracy but said the Cuban president, Fidel Castro, had warned of a possible plot against him last week.
"If, by the hand of the devil, these perverse plans succeed ... forget about Venezuelan oil, Mr Bush," Mr Chavez said.
"I will not hide, I will walk in the streets with all of you ... but I know I am condemned to death," Mr Chavez told his listeners.
The White House said no one was available to comment on Mr Chavez's claim yesterday, a federal holiday.

Speak truth to power.
Sadly, I wouldn't doubt it, this man thinks he controls the world and suffers no consequences 
Making such allegations gives Chavez yet another excuse to tighten up his dictatorship. As we all know, promoting fear of The Other is a great way to provide excuses to consolidate power.
With so many mercenaries and special ops roaming around in S America, I am sure that Chevez senses his assasination. Knowing how all eyes are now upon invader Bush at thsi time, I have to hand it to Chevez for setting Bush up for further scruntiny if Chevez does in fact become assasinated or even if an attempt is made on his life. Chevez has put extra pressure on any secret plans that BushCo may be working on in that area. This certainly will generate more hate towards BushCo and their sneakin 'Cheney' ways.
