Chavez 'jokes' about helping Iran build nukes

"How's the uranium for Iran? For the atomic bomb?"

There's a bit of truth behind every joke. Guardian

Hugo Chávez asks mining minister during televised cabinet meeting: 'How's the uranium for Iran? For the atomic bomb?'[...]

Chávez's mocking drew sniggers from cabinet members. Rodolfo Sanz, the mining minister who had turned up late, grinned.

The comments were made after it emerged last month that Iran was helping Venezuela detect uranium deposits.
