Please read your own link. Chavez waved Chomsky's work at UN and asked for him to be named ambassador to Venezuela. Chomsky supported Chavez' oil sector and other seizures. He turned a blind eye when Chavez armed civilian militias in 2005. Ignored all the blatant election fraud and growing corruption, and the long list of growing human rights abuses. But he took issue when Chavez jailed an opposition journalist. He did this 180 turn in 2011, as per your own link. After over a decade of support and close friendship. That's why I said, too little, too late. Chomsky also supported many other messianic personalistic murderers like that in Latin America. It's sad, but he is just human and very, very old.
