The US has no moral authority to attack Venezuela, regardless of Maduro’s authoritarian nature. Both can be true: Maduro is a dictator who caused immense harm to his people, and US military intervention is an illegal act of aggression that will not resolve the crisis of democracy in Venezuela.

The region’s future must be determined by people themselves, free from the shadow of empire

    Say what you will about Trump but it’s a well calculated move.

    If democrats step in, he’ll accuse them of supporting rigged elections. Meanwhile the hidden lesson in allowing this to happen is that Trump is above the law.

    It fits Trump perfectly, and the purpose is of course to get incredibly rich.

      Democrats would have done the same. Obama invaded 8 countries in 2016.

      Elections are for entertainment for show for the masses. The people who actually run the Western world are the billionaires and the 3 letter organisations.
