Trump Illegally Invades A Sovereign Nation
Trump’s US forces bombed Venezuela and snatched its President. Trump illegally invades a sovereign nation. No declaration of war. No congressional approval. This was one corrupt regime attacking another corrupt regime. This was about oil. Donald Trump is a convicted felon, he is a mob boss running a super power. Trump lives in the past, this old white man, almost an octogenarian, thinks he can turn back the clock. The United States treating Central and South American nations with disdain is something that many thought belonged in the 20C. Latin America has been bedevilled by American corporate greed for centuries. You have heard the term ‘banana republics’, well, this is where it was coined.
US Strike Force Bombs & Snatches Venezuelan President Maduro
“The United States hit Venezuela with a ‘large-scale strike’ early Saturday and said its president, Nicolás Maduro, and his wife have been captured and moved out of the country after months of stepped-up pressure by Washington.”
This was a totally illegal and unsanctioned operation by a rogue President and his regime. It was one crook going after another crook. Power hungry gangsters pretending to be international leaders. This was a dark day for democracy and the international rule of law. Donald Trump admires Vladimir Putin and now, he is copying his behaviour. America is acting like Russia. The world has reached a new low. Actions like these mean we are headed for war. If you are a parent of young men, get ready for the despair of losing your child to death and destruction. This is where power hungry egoists take us. History is littered with examples.
Donald Trump Takes America Into Illegal Territory
You will hear much about what a bad man Maduro was, but none of that justifies the illegal attack upon another sovereign nation. If Trump’s America does not respect the international rule of law, then all bets are off. No country is safe. This authoritarian regime is spreading its illegal activities across international borders now.
“This lawless coup is an invitation for China to invade Taiwan, for Russia to escalate its conquest in Ukraine, and for Netanyahu to expand the destruction of Gaza and annex the West Bank. Trump cares nothing for the human or economic cost of conquering another country — he cares only about enriching his billionaire donors.”
“The last refuge of the incompetent is violence, to paraphrase a line attributed to Isaac Asimov. This truism is particularly apt for Donald J Trump and his regime in the United States. Busy stuffing up the world’s greatest economy, Trump and his cronies are now turning to violence to compensate. Venezuela is their first port of call, amid BS about attacking drug dealers, they are going after this nation’s oil. Venezuela has the world’s largest reserves of thick crude oil. The bully in the White House is picking on a weaker opponent, as bullies always do. You do not see Mister Trump taking on Vladimir Putin and Russia. This is despite the fact that Putin’s Russia is clearly the biggest villain in international terms. No, Trump and his kind pick on the weak, like undocumented immigrants in America.”
