BREAKING: Massive Explosion at Venezuela's Largest Refinery - Significant Damage, 7 Dead - PHOTOS
"There was a gas leak," Energy Minister Rafael Ramirez told state TV. "A cloud of gas exploded … it was a significant explosion, there are significant damages to infrastructure and houses opposite the refinery."

Are we sure this wasn't an act of terrorism? Stop Venezuela's oil flow.

They've got national guard and military being deployed? The defence minister is also attending.

Sorry, this smells!

I think this could be an elite reprisal for a couple of reasons:

1. Hugo Chávez warns UK of 'severe consequences' if Ecuador's embassy raided

and

2. criticising the west over Syria

and not to mention

3. telling his citizens to no longer drink Coca cola or Pepsi


I'm sure there are plenty more reasons, but these are extremely recent!

It does smell doesn't it. Seeing how they have been talking with Iran about lots of stuff and holding hands it does make you wonder about it. On the other hand this sort of thing has been happening alot. Shit breaking. Falling down. Cracking up. Towns that have shattered. Train derailments. Landslides. The Earth is pulling apart and South America has been having alot of issues lately. They have the shattered towns. There are 3 of them. No earthquake just cracked right up. You should see the pictures. Go figure. Its a head scratcher for sure. Makes you wonder about it in both directions.

Don't read to much into the fact that the Military has been called in to help. The military often responds when things of this magnatude happen. They have the resources. They have the training for somthing like this when often times the locals don't. I bet its the Earth that caused it. Check out the earthquake maps lately. They have been having swarms in many area's all over the place in South America, Venezuela and area included.
