When did Venezuela become SO important?

Why?

A little clue.

This isn't about Social Justice. Or "Democracy", Trump doesn't care about either of those things, in Fact, he actively undermines them.

This is about Hegemony and Imperialist Resouce Extraction.

Just more of the same BS, using the fear of "Communism" to attack other countries for being Resouce Rich and Militarily Weak.

A Strong Arm Theft by the State.

The Illegal and Immoral Sanctions on both Cuba and Venezuela are the driving force behind the displacement. Starving people run to safety.

End the Sanctions, then Deal with Maduro.

But if they did that would the people want him gone anymore? That's the question.

Trump doesn't want to find out.

Machado has no more credibility than Juan Guido had.

The US created the problem it now seeks to "Solve" in a totally self serving way.

I trust Maduro more than the US excuses for War.

Even if he is corrupt and self serving Too.

At least he's Venezuelan.

I respect the conclusions of Amnesty International as posted.

Still Not America's place to Enforce them.

Not while Embracing Murder and Ethnic Cleansing on industrial scale in Palestine.

The Hypocrisy stinks a little TOO much.

It's kinda funny how all this is SO Important, but the ongoing Murders of 100,000 people are not our concern.,and in fact are encouraged by public policy.

Being CHOSEN means everything is Permissible. And complaining about that is a "Terrorist" Act.

Lol.

I looked more deeply. I am incorrect about several points. I Acknowledge my mistakes.

Maduro did seem to have his thumb on the scale.

There May have been some irregularities about the vote.

But even if there were, Venezuelan Sovereignty isn't America's Business.

We don't Meddle in Israeli politics.

Only Latin American and Middle Eastern Muslim politics.

And Ukrainian politics, and Russian politics.

You get the point.

Its about Control,not Justice.

#24 That's an extraordinary claim.

If the Maduro government treated election observers like "Terrorists", why did Amnesty International say the election was as legitimate as US elections?

They were Observing the Election.

Which observers were targeted as terrorists?

Link?

Look man, I just don't like the bitch.

She's a liar.

Maduro isn't perfect but he is Legitimate.

As much as Trump or Bibi, or Putin are.

I mean, who's business is it who runs Venezuela?

The people there or the US and it's economic interests?

Maduro isn't going anywhere. And he shouldn't.

Not on the say so of a Lying Right wWing Turd like Machado.

No matter what people in the US say.

Just Sayin'.

Machado is a Western Stooge like Guido was.

The 70% of the Electorate voting for her proxy claims, have never survived scrutiny.

The Venezuelan Supreme Court asked for proof.

She claimed the ballots had been destroyed somehow,and refused to give even partial tallies before begging the US to attack her own Countrymen.

TRAITOR.

#15 Define Legitimate. Jimmy Carter said the Venezuelan elections were Kosher and he's more credible than you.

Amnesty International said the same thing, they are also more credible than some rando guy on the Retort.

The fact is there is so much propaganda around the Bolivarian Revolution that the facts are in dispute about almost everything in Venezuela.

Venezuela would have no Incentive to eff with Guyana if they were not being Sanctioned and Blockaded illegally for not being the "Right" kind of Economic System.

Ever think about that?

#16 The White Rose movement was a resistance to Fascism. They tried to stop murders of Jews and other innocent people.

Machado is a street thug. The Resistance movement in
Venezuela is Right wing in Nature. They don't want Democracy,they don't want justice, they want Power.

Foreign Influence is the key to Machado. The Female Juan Guido, Lol.

She isn't about human rights or prosperity, she is about getting rich and enabling access to National oil and resources to the US for a Fee. Drugs aren't even on the Radar. That's a Red Herring.

A far Cry from Student leaflets calling for Justice for the oppressed.

GFY with your Nazi Allusions.

Israel, the love of Machado, is closer to Nazism the Bolivarian Revolution ever was.

You are Blinded by Ideology.

Should Israel be Attacked and Regime Changed?

HAMAS wants it, are they Credible?

Bin Laden wins Again.

He knew America's weakness and pushed the right buttons.

Obsession with "Security", is America's Achilles heel.

Like Israel.

We go over the Top about minor threats and ignore Systemic Weaknesses.

Its unusual for the Speaker to do Anything asked by the President.

Most speakers have SOME independence from the Administration.

Not Johnson.

Netanyahu gets Deference and huge Payments.

Bombs, Ammo,Intel,you name it. Diplomatic cover for Genocide. Laws passed protecting the killers from ICC prosecution. Including Bibi himself. Sanctions placed on ICC prosecutors to protect Criminals.

He doesn't even have to ask for it.

Daddy Trump just Provides.

Where are the questions about that?

I Got Mine.

What's your Problem?

Stepping on the hands of people coming up the ladder is an American Tradition.

What was Slavery, or Industrial Expansion?

Know Your Place.

Don't rise, Succumb.

Your Betters know Best.

And Trump rode that Energy to the Top of the heap.

Twice.

That can be arranged.

Suckers and Losers.

Carry in my Wayward Son.

There'll be peace when you are done.

Lay your weary head to rest.

Don't you cry no more...

Once I rose above the noise and confusion,just to get a glimpse beyond this illusion.

I was flying ever higher, but I flew too high.

Though my mind was clear I still was a Madman.....

Though my mind was clear I still was a Sad man.

Kansas.

Lampster, we need ya....

The Two party system does not represent them.

Are American elections illegitimate?

The consensus is that Venezuela had illegitimate elections because of low public participation. Maduro us being Targeted as a despot.

Is that true in the US as well?

#8 Russia or China should give Nukes to Iran.

They seem to keep the peace between NATO and Russia.

FIFY.

You can thank me later.

Who shot McKinley?

The only American Assassination to achieve it's political objectives.

Leon Czolgogz, or something close to it.

Slavic Dude. Hated the Rich. Was an Anarchist who wanted McKinley dead because he was only running the country to benefit the Very Rich.

Kinda Familar?

He killed McKinley and Theodore Roosevelt became President and put the Oligarchs in a Box, and ruled as a Genuine Populist.

National Monuments Created,the Trusts Broken Up.

A new hope for general Prosperity that McKinley was stifling with his Love of Monopoly and Oligarchs.

Successful Violence, but Czolgogz never saw it.

He was Executed rather quickly after McKinley died.

No years on death row for him.

War Crime Dementia.

It's a common affliction.

People just "forget" the Horrors but they KEEP the MONEY.

Its always about the Money.

ALWAYS.

They never forget about That...

How is Trump better than Maduro?

How is his campaign of Terror not Terrorism?

Machado is a Fascist Traitor,why did she get a Nobel Peace Prize of all things, for Advocating a Military Attack on her Own Country?

Too Dumb.

Dude looks like a total ------- Moron.

The Face of MAGA.

I hope he does all four years. Just for being Stupid.

I live 25 miles from Hammonton. In piney woods. That's almost there is in Atlantic County.

South Jersey life. Two old guys crashed their Helocopters trying to fly in tandem.

? ? ?

Strike up a Sad song.... Lampster.

Something nobody remembers...

I know several Trump "true believers".

Most are not stupid in a general sense.

They worship successful cruelty and Violence.

It's a character flaw, Not Stupidity in many cases.

Some of the Trumpies I know are "Good People" if you're White and they like you. I would trust them with almost anything.

Kinda like the Tribe,if you're Kosher, then you're Equal, and its a "Vibrant Democracy".

If you're Not...

The Claws come out.

Up to and including Genocide and War.

Human Nature is Perverse and unaccountable.
