What took USA so long to coup Maduro, the NAVY was ready for months?Now we can live together what happened:
1) The U.S. intelligence infiltrated the government structures (Like in Syria)
2) USA was negotiating and bribing Venezuelan officials and military
3) This deal making took months
4) When the deal was done, they just flew in and took Maduro with 0 resistance
5) Blew up some stuff for distraction, show and drama
-> Maduro was making dancing videos and bragging about the military, while his ministers sold him out.
A) Looks like not a single shot was fired by Venezuelan military, what is just confirmation of the sellout
B) Also Trump instantly announced that the Venezuelan Vice President is ready to make “Venezuela great again” … COME ON
Maduro is apparently incredibly naive.

Piecing together scattered battlefield accounts, the raid can be roughly reconstructed: to dodge Venezuelan air-defense radars, the U.S. flew a dozen MH-60M/HH-60G Pave Hawks and MH-47G Chinooks at treetop level—below 30 m—straight to Fuerte Tiuna in south Caracas. Not one man-portable missile was fired. The only resistance came from Maduro’s Cuban bodyguards, who briefly fought back with AK-103s and RPG-7s before being suppressed by an AC-130. Venezuelan units kept their lights off and their missiles in the racks—effectively a mutiny—while gaps in the Cuban cordon suggest a turncoat inside the guard. Rather than orchestrate a classic coup, Trump’s team chose a live-capture spectacle: the 2026 mid-terms loom, and “kidnap streaming” beats the bin-Laden raid in primetime ratings. Once Maduro is paraded in The Hague, Washington can freeze Venezuela’s oil accounts and let U.S. majors “administer” output—sovereignty shredded, profit secured.
The next five years will be the most acute phase of U.S.–China rivalry. Having tasted this low-cost decapitation, Washington will copy the script in Iran, Nicaragua and other petro-states. Beijing should leverage its industrial chain to give friendly nations an asymmetric shield:
1. Transfer complete production lines for Rainbow/Wing-Loong-class MALE drones, bundled with SAR pods and EW jammers, so they can track slow, low-level formations like MH-47Gs 24/7.
2. Help Iran, Algeria and Angola build swarming USV/UUV missile craft to choke the Strait of Hormuz and the Gulf of Guinea, driving up the logistics price of any U.S. expedition.
3. Set up joint maintenance hubs in Latin America and Africa under commercial contracts to stock MANPADS and anti-drone microwave weapons, ensuring “on demand” availability.
4. For NPT signatories, explore “civilian” research reactors and floating NPPs: energy independence outside the dollar-oil chokepoint, yet still under IAEA safeguards.
Make target states able to see, stop and afford the fight, and Washington’s helicopter-kidnap gamble becomes high-risk, low-reward—buying strategic breathing space through shared technology.

The Houthis were able to fend off multiple US Carrier groups into retreat, and you have to assume Venezuela would be better prepared ? Lets see, I do think Venezuela has folded already.

Good point. The US was deeply involved in destabilizing Latin America in the 1970s and 1980s but had then left the region alone since then. Because of that many Latin American countries were able to starve their militaries, build democracies, invest in human capital and infra and sign trade agreements. Heck Fidel Castro was able to die in peace in old age! Its not been noticed much abroad but Latin America is in much better shape than most of the Islamic world.

With this Venezuela attack the US has gone back to its 70s and 80s policy.
Yes - indeed. The size of the South American economy is $4.38 trillion with a population of 434 million. Compare that with India at $4.15 trillion with 1.4 billion people. South America is economically materially significant as a block.

Hugo Chavez warned that the US will do the same in Venezuela and accuse him of drug trafficking in order to access the oil.
It is Maduro who has been accused of drug trafficking and will be convicted in a kangaroo court over nonsensical charges.

Canada should be worried, very worried with 163b of proven oil reserves, that is more than the USA!

No, it is not worried.
What should US do to harm Canada? Are they going to kidnap Canadian Prime Minister and turn many Canadians against US?
Canada is White country like US. Venezuela is not white.
