Trump Wasn't Kidding About Wanting To Invade Venezuela

a reply to: JacKatMtn

Yeah it was... Argentina, too. They'll be the next to fall thanks to the chaos of a socialist hell.

Both Brazil and Columbia are eye balling Venezuela. We been working very closely with the Colombians on the border there, so who knows. As to the article I think it is time that we do not post or reference anything that is not verifiable. The old Unverified source just doesn't work anymore. And this below... really someone is going to do that?

The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because of the sensitive nature of the discussions.

Police action isn't a war, and foreign leadership strife coupled with mass migration crisis has been the justification for a number of them... including Obama's stated rationale for hitting Syria (one which didn't become a police action.)

I think that you're confusing a symptom for a cause...Syria used chemical weapons in direct violation of everything...www.nytimes.com...

Venezuela doesn't even have something that we can confidently call a military.

The precipitous fall of oil had nothing to do with it? Corruption? Nothing?

Welcome them. That's what I'll do.

I'm nowhere near as accommodating as you are. Cheers to you.

We're off topic, Sir. You could have done this via u2u...

But hey...you're the Mod...; )

I disagree. You're positioning that unauthorized mass migration into the US poses no threat. I'm determining a baseline of personal thresholds and how they play from private affairs to opinions on related macro-political policies.

I don't suffer uninvited guests, you do... thus we are seeing very different definitions of the word "threat."

I think your confusing a symptom for a cause. Oils fall sped up the lack of scarce funds being used to placate the masses, keeping them at least alive on the edge of the socialist hell.

Has there ever been a socialist state that didn't fall to corruption and dictatorship?

Mass migration = uninvited guests?

Definitely not. You poked fallaciously.

I say it's a threat too.

All one has to do is look at native american displacement by european immigrants.

All the natives got out of the deal was casinos in their fema camps.

So do we invade every country that has people escaping from it?

Maybe. But it seems that a lot of those funds weren't actually getting to the "masses." But it's more the "sudden" thing that doesn't ring true. It actually seems to have started falling apart from the beginning.

The only invading that's going on is by people from way down south.

Apparently no one from the eastern hemisphere gets a shot and the 'murican dream.

I'm fairly certain the EU's calls for US action in Syria were tied to their member states watching swarms of migrants overwhelm their system. The chemical attacks were the public justification, but the calls for action predated the attacks. Greece was the catalyst and they were overwhelmed months before the chemical attack.

How do you feel about the US driven ARAB SPRING that caused and is still causing fleeing migrants from the nations targeted?

That is happening...

Last I looked....

US has not "attacked" Venezuela...

YMMV

I don't recall them being invited... so what else would you call it?

Whenever I see statements like this:

When those escaping are invading us it's definitely a card which should be on the table.

US has not "attacked" Venezuela...

According to anonymous 'sources'.

We want to.

Absolutely no way to verify it's veracity.

Correct. That doesn't mean Trump didn't think it would be a good idea.
But he was just brainstorming.

It's still a symptom.

And I am unsure that I can rationalize the use of chemical warfare in as a justification that in turn supports invading Venezuela. I'm going to have to consider these mental gymnastics.


And I find it interesting that you used Greece as a support for your argument...the bank run was caused by bankers and should be an argument against them then common day people.
