Chavez Reiterates Claim Capriles Was a Member of a Fascist Group

Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez reiterated his claim that rival Henrique Capriles Radonski is a fascist who belonged to a neo-Nazi group in his youth, days after Capriles asked him to respect his Jewish background.

Chavez, speaking on state television during an electoral rally, said he had proof that Capriles belonged to the “fascist” Catholic group “Tradition, Family and Property.”
