US activist rejects prospective invasion of Venezuela


US activist Cindy Sheehan Wednesday in Caracas repulsed the possibility of a US invasion of Venezuela, as claimed repeatedly by President Hugo Chávez, Efe reported.

"I am against any military invasion of Venezuela. I expect my government to cease meddling in the internal affairs of foreign countries," the US activist commented during an interview with official TV channel Venezolana de Televisión (VTV.)

Sheehan accused US President George W. Bush of "terrorism against the world" and advocated turning "Washington militarist economy into a peaceful one."

"Bush continues saying that the (Iraq) war is against terrorism. As a matter of fact, he makes terrorism against the world," Sheehan said during a press conference on the occasion of the Sixth World Social Forum held in Caracas.

Sheehan is renowned since she started to fight against the Iraq war. Her 24-year-old son Casey died at the frontline five days after arriving in the Arab country as part of the US troops.
