FARC Vows to Defend Venezuela from US
The Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC) has declared its solidarity with Venezuela’s socialist President Hugo Chavez and vowed to help defend Venezuela against any invasion from their “common enemy”, the US.
FARC leader Raul Reyes told the Colombian alternative news agency Anncol that if a US attack comes from the Colombian side of the border with Venezuela, the FARC will actively support Venezuela’s Bolivarian revolution. The US backs the Colombian military in its war against the FARC.

A US invasion to Venezuela is, to say the least, very unlikely. With its current political capital the US administration couldn’t invade Lilliput. Bush’s approval rating is at 34%, and a recent survey shows that only 23% of US troops deployed in Irak believe they should stay until the job is done.
I agree camilo, I'm just trying to illustrate the networking of the "left" in latin America.
