CARACAS, Venezuela (AP) — At least seven explosions and low-flying aircraft were heard around 2 a.m. local time Saturday in Venezuela’s capital, Caracas. The government accused the United States of attacking civilian and military installations in multiple states.
[…]
Venezuela’s government, in the statement, called on its supporters to take to the streets.
“People to the streets!” the statement said. “The Bolivarian Government calls on all social and political forces in the country to activate mobilization plans and repudiate this imperialist attack.”
The statement added that President Nicolás Maduro had “ordered all national defense plans to be implemented” and declared “a state of external disturbance.” That state of emergency gives him the power to suspend people’s rights and expand the role of the armed forces.
Trump has apparently been consistently ‘asking’ Sheinbaum (sp?) to let him take out all the cartels in Mexico.
So uh, Mexican American War, Round 2, very much looks to be on the table.
Somewhat ironically, Ghost In The Shell: Stand Alone Complex called that one, part of at least one version of half of Section 9’s member’s backstories is that they were mercs fighting in that war.
