The "war" in Venezuela is over. The "war" in Iran will be fast. The "war" in Taiwan depends on the Chinese.

Remember when the Iraq was over? Until it wasn't. Ya think Americans are going to support having enough American troops on the ground for a prolonged stay? Or will the effort be entrusted to the incorruptible Venezuelan military? Or to the honorable police?

Ecuador has a president who actually has been working hard with the US to expel the narcotrafficantes from his country. So far, no good

Not sure what threat Maduro presented to the US. As far as I know, Christmas was celebrated as usual, Little League baseball was played last summer, etc. Maybe a MAGA can help provide the rationale, other than Trump is compensating for his small junk and satisfying his psychopathic needs.

If the US is justified in this attack, certainly Denmark would be totally justified in sending Viking Team 6 to grab Trump and whisk him away, since Trump has stated he will take Greenland by force if necessary.

Karma would be so fun to watch. You go Denmark!

This illegal attack had two goals:

• Oil

• Diversion from the drip feeding of the damning Epstein/Trump files.

End of story.

I don't think Russia or China are going to go out of their way about this.

China get much of their cheap oil from Venezuela, you think they gonna look on tootless?

Russia and Iran have good relations with Venezuela, and also with each other.

Yes I do think they're going to look on. As I pointed out, this act actually reinforces the Chinese view that it, like the USA and Russia, each have their own sphere of influence. And within that sphere, they can pretty much do as they please.
