Wouldn't it be logical for the US to encourage such strong institutions, individuals and processes to checkmate the leaders of these countries instead of trying to topple their government.

This is the major reason why many countries hate Americans. They impose and/or manipulate the leadership of other countries of the world. A lot of conspiracy theories has been fabricated against them because of this.
u guy's condemn America on their continue interference on other nations, but failed to do same when the British forcefully amalgamated us by mere geographical expression, u guys accepted and move on .

You are talking about the Bay of Pigs which is just one attempt.

We are talking about a system that has a high track record of unseat ingredients regimes all around the globe.

Don't just dismiss what the man you quoted has said. He has a point.

If the US wants to get Maduro, they won't do it in this haphazard and half-hearted manner. Trust me.

He is pretty much a major target.

Yet the US also won't send in the Navy seals to invade Venezuela and kill the president. They will do it with rag tag militias and people with plausible deniability if they get caught, like what is happening now

Those two Ex soldiers among them might be CIA agents cordinating the operation but got their cover blown.

Like I read on quora one time, CIA agents are not your regular muscular guys with perfect shooting skills , who can fight with martial art that you see in movies, the real field agents are the boring regular guys that you and I see on the street everyday. They can go undercover without drawing attention and remain anonymous.

The fact that you don't suspect them as government agent is even what makes them the perfect spies. A spy is not supposed to stand out in appearance like the way it's portrayed in Hollywood , A spy is supposed to blend in, look boring like a regular guy, with obese look and his pot belly, such that you won't even suspect such person can hold or handle any weapon.

Dismiss these guys as non-government agents at your own peril , because those boring ragtag, uncoordinated looking guys you see in that picture are the real life spies, not the muscular ones you see in movies grin

Simpleton Nairalanders As usual.

When CIA wants to carry out a coup, the likelihood if success will be very high especially in Venezuela, where the recession has even polarized the military.

Venezuela while the have the largest oil deposits in the world, is one of the variants that is very expensive to refine and also mine. Nobody gives a shit about Venezuela's oil right now.

Trump is anti globalist. Businesses choosing to operate in other countries should deal with them directly on terms favorable to both. He ain't interested in using the military to further private businesses.

They were easily captured and composed of ragtag untrained civilians. In the history of US coups from bay of pigs to Gadhafi, they have never used untrained personnel for their missions.

In conclusion I think this was staged for the benefit of Maduro to continue blaming US for their inept leadership and also garner public sympathy especially as their already weak economy will get worse.

So it is Maduro attempting a "coup" to remove himself .

If you believe that the US government actually funded this shoddy job, then you can believe just about anything.

This is definitely another "Wonga Coup". It's definitely a privately-funded invasion by some desperate American businessmen and possibly a number of Venezuelan opposition figures in exile in the USA.

What could be in it for the businessmen and their Venezuelan co-conspirators??
Simple gas concessions for the businessmen and political control for the Venezuelan political exiles.

I don't believe for a second that this badly put together invasion could have been planned out by the government of Sao Tomé and Principe. Not to talk of the US.

No proper State actor would go the extent of ridiculing himself by organizing such a charade. Just look at how easily they were caught. It all goes to show that an amateur was entirely behind this nonsense.

Yes, Maduro will definitely pounce on this and make a hell of a noise out of it because it sits well with his anti-US propaganda strategies. It is normal.

But if this had somehow succeeded, trust that the US government would have given it some forms of tacit approval. No doubt about that.

But looking at it, hindsight now, there was no way that such a shabby attempt would have succeeded.

I mean, look at that very fat guy in that 3rd picture. His shirt can barely cover his stomach.

As long as the US chooses to oust Maduro just like Fidel Castrol, without directly engaging their own forces(i.e sponsoring rebels) so as to make the world believe that they are not involved in toppling a government of a sovereign state, the operation will always fail.
Re: 2 Ex-US Soldiers Attempt To Assasinate Maduro, Venezuelan President by PigTormentor: 9:08am On May 06, 2020
[[s]quote author=ValCon888 post=89237014]The United States is really interested and invested in Venezuela from a warfare perspective and an economic perspective.

1. Venezuela is a socialist state and Maduro is an enemy of the U.S. An enemy of the U.S. is automatically a friend of Russia and China.

A ballistic missile attack by Russia or China into the U.S. will be easier if the range is closer i.e launching your missiles from Venezuela.

And that was what the whole Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 was all about. Russia wanted to use Cuba as a base for its missiles and the U.S. refused. That conflict almost led to a nuclear war.

2. At 300 billion barrels, Venezuela has the largest proven oil reserves in the world. Larger than Saudi Arabia, Iran, US, or Russia. Any country who controls the President of Venezuela controls the oil.

The assassination attempt will never stop as long as Maduro remains in power.[/quote][/s]


TRASH.

What authority does Trump have to determine for the Venezuelan people who their leader is?
Is Trump himself qualified to be president of the United states? Trump lack the moral and ethical standards to tell others who their leaders should be.
There was a time when American Presidents were respected and revered around the world, that stopped the moment mr Dotard became the US president.
Let the Venezuelans remove their President if they so choose to.
Trump should FVCK off and worry about losing the next election.

When a nation suffers due to incompetence of its leaders, other nations suffer and are forced to take action if it's people are negligent..

How other nation suffer:
- Refugee influx
- Debt growth (borrowings)
- Terrorist recruitment
- Illegal immigrants
- Asylum seekers
- Job mop up in foreign nations
- Reduction in standard of living due to cheap labour
- Pressure to forgive debts.
etc...

Look inward and tell me if your country does not tick all the above..

With another 4 years of TRAMP, the US will meet most of their criteria. May be others should also help the US to remove TRAMP

The way people here are supporting American aggression. Anybody but the USA is a bad guy. A nation built on genocide and slavery. The so called liberator but with the highest number of homeless people and racial police brutality against people of colour.
Has the highest number of military bases around the world in other people's country but will never allow others put even a single Garrison on their soil.
A nation with highly censored media when ever it come to exposing their government atrocities around the world.
Nobody is talking about Julian Assange or Chelsea Manning.

So the US should give its Nuclear arsenal? Trump is a complete NARCISSIST LUNATIC. He's completely off the hinge and getting worse by the day. They might have to drag the bastard out of the white house after he has lost the election.
