Anything is possible, but Iran and Venezuela have been courting close ties as of late (since Bush tagged them both as being part of the "Axis of Evil").  So it actually makes sense that it would be going there.  Secondly, the arms that get shipped to the Colombian cartels tend to go thru Venezuela as of late to avoid seizure of the cargo by the Federal forces of the Colombian Military.  Venezuela first, and smuggling over the border is the safer alternative.
