Chavez: Halloween part of U.S. culture of terror
CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) -- President Hugo Chavez urged Venezuelan
parents not to dress their children in costumes for Halloween,
calling it a U.S. custom that has no place in the South American
country's cultural traditions.
....he urged parents to think about whether it was appropriate to
dress up their children as part of a foreign custom, calling it
"the game of terror."
He said that is part of the U.S. culture -- "terrorism, putting
fear into other nations, putting fear into their own people."
