It first I thought is was gunboat diplomacy. I can't help but wonder if Trump want to weaken the communists there or he's bluffing. Either way, I do not see boots on the grounds.
 
 
Trump is striking narcoterrorists in Venezuela, but not the country itself.

Although libs are doing their best to glorify the Venezuela based cartels that seek to poison Americans, claiming its a "crime against humanity" to whack a drug pusher.

No, I'm not so sure. I think his strategic aim is to topple Maduro.

China has a large hand there too.

America might feel the need to send a message that their backyard is not to be infiltrated by communists, especially those who poison their citizens.

Who knows what those in the know decide?

What "communists"?

There can be more than one aim in an operation.

Further , the thought is that Maduro is behind the narcoterrorism, so they are very related goals.
 
I've got money on it.

We don't waste a Carrier Group on drug boats.

Ordinarily, that would definitely be the case.

But there is a concern here that Maduro and other libs might interfere, and a show of strength with the US Navy lets him know that this is happening to his regime's precious Drug Pushers.

Lies, lies, and more lies. Yet you still believe. :uhoh3: :cuckoo: :laughing0301: :abgg2q.jpg:
 
Russia is currently supplying a range of defensive weapons to Venezuela. The Kremlin sees 'no obstacle' in sending offensive weapons like the newly developed Oreshnik IRBM or battle tested Kalibr.

– Russian Lawmaker, Alexei Zhuravlev

"Russia is actually one of the key military-technical partners of Venezuela, we supply almost the entire range of weapons to this country — from small arms to aviation. Information about the volumes and exact names of what is being brought from Russia is classified, so Americans may be in for surprises. I see no obstacles to supplying our friendly country with such new developments as the 'Oreshnik' or, say, the well-proven 'Kalibr' missiles; at least, no international obligations restrict Russia in this regard,"

It's been over 3yrs but the Kremlin is surprisingly waking up, if the US plans to arm Russia's border and give weapons to strike deep into Russia, Russia will arm US enemies. Give weapons to sink their ships and bases.

I think it's fair, that's deterrence and I'm surprised Russia just considering it after 3yrs+ of western provocation.

Russia all in for peace when the West is ready, but fighting with hands tied should end, red lines should have meaning, Russia also have cards against the West and it's time to put them on pressure too. Stop funding Nazis on Russia's border.

The US government seems to have learnt nothing when it comes to regime change in the last 20+yrs.
Saddam Hussein in Iraq
Muammar Gaddafi in Libya
What's left of those countries today in exchange for "democracy"?
