Venezuela 2025

[temporal1]

At least Putin is semi-honest about it. And perhaps our current president…
in the past it was being done and just simply lied about.

simple unvarnished fact. “nothing to see here” being the go-to.

mike:
.. How would US action in Venezuela be different from all of these other operations?

presumably a rhetorical question.

You have no idea the ripple effects this has caused here.

Do you feel any pressures/discrimination?

HK:
.. Hondurans, even more so than Americans, are prone to conjecture, hearsay and conspiratorial thinking -

Not sure that's something to laugh about... nothing good comes to a society prone to such things...

I think that is conjecture.

I'm amazed how many people who voted to be free from needing to serve in foreign wars, no longer seem to care about that so much once their heroes think the USA should get involved in foreign wars.

As far as I know, the U.S. isn’t involved in any new foreign wars (yet).

Un-officially.... There's debate about what we're doing in the Caribbean (war crimes, murder, etc) but given an historical definition I think at the lease we have done "acts" of war... so therefore...

There isn’t anything close to the kind of incursions that happened in Iraq or Afghanistan.

Every administration has lobbed a few random missiles around, eg Clinton bombing Chinese embassies, Obama firing on parties in Pakistan with Leon Panetta’s (in)famous “double tap” and so on.

[Soloist]

Yeah… we’ve done acts of war multiple times for the last who knows how many presidents. It’s just been against countries that would be worse off to openly retaliate.

Neither is Russia, according to the Kremlin.
