Venezuela - US Conflict: News, Updates

@LeGenD so as far as I know Colombia has been fighting drug trafficking for many years with DEA help over many many years has been an ally of America for many many years Colombia president was freely elected now he’s threatening freely elected people….seriously Jolani people have killed more people in a day than Iran has killed be they peaceful or violent instigators I’m assuming many that were killed were paid Israeli instigators(seriously not big on conspiracies but I’m for that theory because Israel is openly trying to torment violence).
Israeli forces has killed more peaceful people protesting than any so called democracy in the world(we are not even talking about Gaza) settlers are now openly causing killings and mass destruction on daily if not hourly basis(guess what many of those attacked are Christians)
This doesn’t seem like trump fighting to make the world a better place it’s more like trump enriching him and his family for a very long time if this guy doesn’t try to go for a third term if he doesn’t die from natural causes I would be very surprised and if he does try and is stopped and as many yes man in the military he has now I can definitely see a coup in a few years again he tried once this time he is in a better place to succeed
Petro is an ally of Maduro and allowing coca farming. Trump disagree with some of his decisions lately. Following link explore this theme at length:


Columbia needs to shift from coca farming but it is unclear that this shift is possible anytime soon or intentionally overlooked. Trump may not have sufficient time or patience for it.

These South American countries are accustomed to the US looking the other way or being lenient with them. But Trump admin is adopting a hardline stance for them, a first in the region. Now they all are in shock or in a bind.
 
I have found that some people are still very naive.

Didn't you see so many Americans celebrating Trump's successful invasion of Venezuela in the post?

Why are they happy? Let's be frank, they are happy that the United States has taken over a colony. They are happy about the possibility of the United States obtaining colonial oil.

The United States is a new colonial empire, and these Americans are supporters of colonialism. Isn't this an obvious answer?

The only thing you can do is kneel down and become slaves to them, or stand up and resist.

It's ridiculous that those South Asian Americans suggest that you don't blame Britain for colonizing South Asia or Russia for invading Ukraine in the future. Your moral standards are not sufficient to support similar criticism.
if you dig more of history, you will find who fought and who welcome them and obsessed with white skin ...in South Asia

Considering the "War of Drugs" has been going for 40 some years now, at some point you have to decide "are we really going to end this or not?" When Reagan first announced it, I said then the only things that would be accomplished was more government and more government control over our lives. It was "Mission Accomplished". Yet, the flow of drugs continues.

Friend, while I agree with most of what you are saying, and agree with most individuals here that condemn US attack on a sovereign nation, and taking out a sovereign leader; There is something we have to get correct here.

Socialism and it’s worst form communism is garbage system. Socialism has never done any good for humanity whatsoever. Today most of the world is rich because of Capitalism, in fact even your nation, if it hadn’t adopted Capitalism and remained with Communism would have people starving everywhere dying by the thousands.

And you don’t need sanctions, or enmity, Socialism as a system impoverishes a people.

Is what the US did good? No, they are going against a rule based order defying every international custom.

Are Venezuelans going to he better off after? Most definitely, especially if they adopt Capitalism because Capitalism is the social system of private ownership of the means of production, in which economic calculation is possible through market prices formed by voluntary exchange.

In a way this is good for Venezuela as it’s people can get rid of that garbage system called socialism, but bad for the world because it erodes rules and international trust.

This is the type of comment edgy conservative teenagers say to
Sound intellectual, but don't actually know what they're talking about.

By the way, a lot of the problems in the world is currently due to unchecked capitalism, including now the unjustifiable attack and attempted theft of Venezuelan oil.

Hopefully you can stick to attacking my arguments and not attack my character.

Capitalism as is best defined is: “Capitalism is the social system of private ownership of the means of production, in which economic calculation is possible through market prices formed by voluntary exchange.”

Capital is essentially free markets unhampered by governments. The only role government should ever have, is to protect life, liberty, property.

You said “a lot of the problems in the world is currently due to unchecked capitalism, including now the unjustifiable attack and attempted theft of Venezuelan oil.” I ask when have markets ever been free without government intervention, give me one nation throughout history? Or rather Name one nation that came close today or in history that allowed complete free trade?

Don’t confuse governmental politic acts with free markets, what a government does is not because of free markets.

If free markets truly existed worldwide, and I mean truly existed worldwide, each nation would specialize in their respective domains of production to benefit the citizens of the world. Imagine paying €0.50 for a dozen eggs instead of €6, Imagine paying €2000 for a new car instead of paying €20,000.
 
well if you are not going to be cooperative..why the hell should I?

so buh-bye.
So you yourself admit that your government is committing theft and terrorism, but you are afraid to say it, or maybe you like what your government is doing.
 
I haven’t seen many videos of the attack but if this video is true, it was a massive attack on Venezuela prior to abduction of their President

Trump is writing cheques he can't cash. Promises he make to improve lives of venezuela but with what money? After oil profits by companies there is no where near enough to rebuild venezuela with estimates up to or over a trillion dollars. Soon these same free venezuelans will be burning oil pipelines in protest demanding more money.

Donald Trump doesn't care about his own American people imagine about Venezuela. He cares about the oil. Hopefully the Venezuelan people will resist this baron oil thief’s coming to their country.

That's literally not how this shit works, and is an uneducated view of what capitalism and free market is.

I don't want to hear an opinion about economics from someone who probably doesn't even know what the accounting equation is, and doesn't understand credits and debits.

You arent making an argument, you're making personal declarations and trying to pass them off as facts.
