So One Helicopter was hit

 

[Watandar]

I gotta say something that not many people will like:

Back in the '80s Venezuela was the richest country in South America. We're talking about big money. They were way ahead of every other south american country. However,they didn't have a solid economic policy for the future,I don't remember the details,but they didn't have good plans for investments and a sustainable economy that would keep making money for them,so when oil prices fell,they had problems.

So anyway,then came the communists. They turned Venezuela into a "socialist" country and fucked up the economy even more. Then came the sanctions and that ruined the country completely.

Now,as much as most of you guys here don't want to admit this,Maduro was a bad guy. He was ruined the country. His idiotic policies brought poverty to the majority of the country. The ones not affected by it were some of the elite and his fanatic supporters.

From 2018 onwards,I've talked with dozens of women from Venezuela and even more from neighboring countries. The situation for the common people is very very bad economically. We're talking about crazy inflation and even problems getting basic medicine and food often. I've seen Mad Max style videos years ago,where bikers swarmed an oil truck to get the oil. Capital controls and ban on dollar trade.

The country turned poverty,because of this guy who won't step down. And all these years both Russia and China took advantage of this,buying cheap oil from Venezuela and not giving back anything significant. These are the facts.

Oh please

The US have a track record of neutralizing perceived threats in other countries. Noriega regime in Panama dismantled; Al-Qaeda Network in Afghanistan dismantled; Saddam regime in Iraq dismantled; Qaddafi regime in Libya dismantled; OBL and his aides eliminated in Pakistan; Assad regime in Syria dismantled; Maduro couple abducted from Venezuela (developing story).

Maduro joins Iraq’s Saddam, Panama’s Noriega as latest leader taken by US

The reported capture of Venezuelan president evokes previous eras when other leaders were seized by US.

What is there to learn? The US can get away with much.

Can your USA take the government out of North Korea or Russia, or China. Please go if you can , but we know Americans are a hypocrite. Lesson to learn here my friend is I put to you bluntly is to have F-**king Nuclear weapons.

No, but SOCOM/DEVGRU is pretty much based in asia/ME/Africa for counterterrorism operations

Not quite right. Delta have always been JSOC Tip of the Spear and there's a reason FBI BRT is called Domestic Delta they've also been deployed across middle east to cross out FBI Most Wanted list.

Probably just C-2 from a carrier to a Naval Base (Maybe Cuba), then to Miami directly

Probably flew to the newly reactivated strip on Puerto Rico; Roosevelt roads. It’s much closer and was a major staging point for this op.

Where you at bro? I thought you said this would never happen?

I've been up for an hour now. It is currently 0758 where I'm at.

I am as stunned as everyone else.

Rookie mistake by Maduro to keep following same routine.



Delta Force had ‘pattern of life’ on Maduro before seizure

Ellen Nakashima, Alex Horton, Tara Copp and Warren Strobel

The U.S. deployed two Army Delta Force units, one from the Middle East and one from North Africa in recent weeks and those forces had established a “pattern of life” on Maduro in advance of the operation, mapping out his location and daily movements, according to a person familiar with that deployment. Delta Force, known within the clandestine community as Combat Applications Group, is among the Pentagon’s most elite units, tasked with executing high-stakes and secretive missions, including hostage rescue and kill-and-capture missions

'Making that decision right now'.
Well, if Venezuela's govt stays with the VP of Maduro then capturing Maduro won't amount to much, or will it?? The VP maybe a little bit accommodating of American interests but 'taking over' would not be the case then.

The Chinese delegation also had just Maduro the day before:

No, but LATAM is not Asia. Venezuelans generals probably war games out how a conflict could have gone. At most the would have lasted an extra few weeks:

The real danger from Venezuela is a migration of half of Venezuela into the US, after the US backed regime cutoffs their social services (despite what the expected propaganda to come will say of a booming local economy, low crime, tourist opportunities, and good employment for average Venezuelans).

Trump can only prevent this with a second step, after taking out any remaining hostile regimes in LATAM, friend shoring / near shoring:

This can also reverse other immigration flows. Allowing those on refugee or other temporary status to return to their countries in LATAM.
