Venezuela

I see here many US citizens concerned about what Trump might do at the moment.
We have to remember that people are dying from lack of basic access to medicine and food. And when it comes to the border the forces are stopping the people getting to it. Maduro is an idiot put in place by the communist Chavez. One is gone thankfully and the other will follow shortly. Hopefully before others lose their lives, but hey they probably will just trying to live in Venezuela without access to food

I would really like to hear and informed assessment of why Venezuela is in such a mess. The US manipulation of markets and the increased embargo may actually have something to do with it. Yes Chavez and Maduro are far from perfect but their attempts to provide access to property ownership and share the wealth of their oil with the peasants that do all the work in Venezuela made sense to me. International oil companies screamed bloody murder and lobbied governments all over the world to do everything they could to take back Control of those oil fields. If things get too hot in America for Trump he will definitely go in with weapons.

Venezuelan troops and civilian militias are shooting towards the Colombian side of the border.

Very similar to our border crisis.

Time to send a few cruise missiles up Maduro's ass!

The bast..d torched three trucks loaded with humanitarian help.

@powder Darling, I listen to the news -directly from the site, in Spanish, and from specialized reporters. The fact you said "agitators in both sides" tells me you are not listening to well informed reporters. The lady I was listening was standing about 100 feet from the border; the images received were "happening at the moment"..what the people said -Spanish- was hallucinating although not as much as the torched trucks. The agitators (civilian militia) were in the Venezuelan side of the border...the ones you saw throwing stones were Venezuelan who has crossed / live in the Colombian side and were attempting to stop the Venezuelan civilian militia. Dear, if the reporter doesn't speak the language of the natives they are bound to misinterpret what's going on.

If the US were interested in "minimizing" the suffering of the Venezuelan people, don't you think they would have refrained from placing economic sanctions on the country? [state.gov]

If the US and its allies was interested in "minimizing" the suffering of the Venezuelan people, don't you think they would have returned to Venezuela what is rightfully Venezuela's? [bullionstar.com]

How to Start Mass Murder and Promote Capitalism:

  1. Make sure they have gold deposits in the US or elsewhere first, so you can steal it.
  2. Send CIA and covert funding to radical groups within the country.
  3. Start a propaganda campaign against the country.
  4. Accuse the leader of being a dictator and madman.
  5. Encourage the terrorists you fund to protest violently, then claim that the leader is massacring his own people when he responds to their violence.
  6. Claim the terrorists the US funded / imported are legitimate rebels.
  7. Bomb them, torture them, kill them, create refuges from here to hell and gone.
  8. Take over their whole economy, set up a US-style banking system.
  9. Claim that Capitalism is the only system that succeeds while destroying their system.
  10. Establish military bases.
  11. Plant a puppet leader and government.
  12. Leave the country in shambles, and claim it is due to failure of their non-capitalist system.
    .
    This has played out over and over and over again, the same old song and dance.

Playing the world's policeman is exactly where our tax dollars are going, and the reason why we have a crumbling infrastructure, a police force that acts more like an occupying force, and children without clean water to drink. Don't you think we should take care of our own first?

Playing the world's policeman is the reason why we have a sky-high deficit that is going to eventually bring this country down. When exactly do you think we should stop, after the national debt goes above $100,000 per citizen? $500,000 per citizen? $1,000,000 per citizen? [usdebtclock.org]

Copy and paste works for you so nicely!

Yes, it does, when it is the truth. Interesting you have not argued the points made in it.

@THHA Nothing to argue. Just the usual liberal BS.

You can't argue with the facts.

When a supermarket owner bans you from his store.......do you stop buying food or go to some place else? Well, dear, Venezuela doesn' t trade with USA but indeed trades with other nations.

So stealing their gold has nothing to do with their economy?

Give Venezuela back the money stolen from their bank accounts.
