In reply to the discussion: Trump: We are going to run Venezuela until we can do a safe, proper and judicious transition [View all]Escurumbele
(4,019 posts)trump is set to pilferage that country of its oil, precious stones, gold, silver, iron, etc.
These are points that bother me:
1. How easy it was to invade that country. No casualties from either side, even though Venezuela does have a big army, and they knew the USA was coming, zero retaliation.
2. trump during his speech today did not mention Edmundo Gonzalez and Maria Corina Machado (recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize), Gonzalez duly elected by the Venezuelan people by a huge margin. Why is he not mentioning them?
3. He also aid that he and Rubio will be the rulers of Venezuela. One has to give credit to trump, he would be the only man in modern history to be president of two countries at once. We all know he fails hugely as president of the USA, and like in the USA, he does not want to govern Venezuela, he just wants his hands on the riches of the country.
4. I venture to bet that Maduro will not serve time, it will be a big show in New York. I could be wrong, I hope I am wrong.
5. Sources tell me that people like Vladimir Padrino-Lopez who commands the army in Venezuela will continue to do so. Padrino-Lopez is a butcher, he has been responsible for torture, and countless deaths of innocent people, young and older that includes teens, women, he does not discriminate when feeling like enjoying a little torture.
6. trump said that he, and Marco Rubio, will rule Venezuela until they can assure a peaceful transition, and if I am not wrong, they intend to find the right person to run the country, and I have to assume he will be doing like Putin has done, to bring a puppet who can obey and execute orders.
7. Russia, China, Hezbolah, Iran, and others will remain in Venezuela and continue to pilfer as they have been doing for many years.
8. It is curious that in a military fort (Fort Tiuna), where Russians built some buildings, although the fort was bombed, none of the Russian assets were touched. I guess trump didn't want to upset Vladi?
Anyway, I really hope that I am wrong in many of those points, that Venezuelans are able to reconstruct their country, but when most of the thugs who destroyed and pilfered for many years stay in power, how is that possible?
