Chavez says he's friends with terrorist 'Carlos the Jackal'
Venezuelan strongman Hugo Chavez created another controversy at the OPEC summit when he claimed to be friends with Ilich Ramirez Sanchez, the 1970s Venezuelan terrorist known as 'Carlos the Jackal.'
'Carlos' led a bloody attack on OPEC leaders in 1975. A convert to Islam, he is imprisoned in France and has publicly praised al Qaeda for the September 11, 2001 attacks.
