Chavez already had a General, Ángel Vivas Perdomo detained and interrogated, and many officers have resigned or been sidelined as a result of efforts by Chavez to seize control of the military. 

Chavez has also removed Catholic priests as chaplains, and installed priests from his puppet "Reform Catholic Church", made up of renegade pro-Chavez former Catholic priests, and is trying to force the military to adopt a Marxist salute and slogan in the style of the Cuban military.  A lot of military folks in Venezuela aren't happy about Chavez running roughshod over their traditions, and some noise is being made.

You know guys, you could uh, deal with this Chavez problem.  It'd save North and South America a lot of trouble, would probably make things much better in Venezuela and South America at large and you'd break the hearts of the sniveling Marxist vermin here in the US too.
