Regime change in Venezuela

TheCatWoman

Trump has bombed and captured Venezuela and taken it's president to America to stand trial for frug smuggling or terrorism or something like that. He says America is going to be running the country from now until a new government can be elected. One friendly to the USA no doubt.

I think this is all about oil personally and havving control of Venezuela's huge mineral resources, for someone who didn't want to have any more foreign adventures Trump seems to be pretty gung-ho about meddling in other countries. I wonder if Iran will be next? He's made threatening noises before and now that the Iranian people are protesting against their government I wonder if he'll be able to resist? 

Does the world need more conflict on another continent? I don't think so, I think this will destabilise the world even more, not that I support Maduro and his cronies, but I think an outright attack like this is dangerous, I wonder how the rest of South America is feeling about it, do they feel any safer or more in danger?

Both Venezuela and Iran are pally with Russia, could this all be a way of getting at Putin and what will his reaction be to some of his allies being taken over by the USA? Looks like 2026 has got off with the wrong sort of bangs.

  • The US has a long track record of organizing coups in south America to control countries to benefit US companies such as United Fruit for example. I agree, this will cause more issues with the breach of international law. It is worrying when Trump and his cabinet make announcements on taking over Greenland, a sovereign state.

    I think the Danish PM is right and if the US takes over Greenland it will be the end of NATO, I think the same about Canada too. The stupid thing about Greenland is that theres a treaty between them that America can have military bases there and can have access to its mineral wealth. After WW2 America had 16 military bases on Greenland, after the end of the Cold War it shut 15 of them, the treaty allows them to reopen them and trade.

    America has been interferring in the south for years, has it ever occured to it that they might of been better off leaving alone? Or that they may have helped to create the Narco states and general instability?
