Davida33:
I support Russia, but we need to be truthful here. We should give the US some credit for this mission. I wish Russia had started this way, by now, the war will have been over.

One of the main reasons Ukraine is still standing is because of Zelensky. If Zelensky had been killed at the beginning, I believe the war would have been over by now.

Maduro is not popular in Venezuela, and removing him has always been a US objective. In fact, Trump openly pressured him to leave for weeks, but he refused. Now their mission has been achieved.

The US will likely install a puppet government because the military generals will be too afraid to take over.
I also believe this was an internal sabotage, someone close to Maduro was working with the US.

I support Russia, but I try to be objective. You, however, are not objective. Anything Russia does is right to you, and anything the US does is wrong.
As things stand now, Russia needs to be ruthless, no more mercy.
The war has weakened Russia, if not for the Ukraine war, the US would not have invaded Venezuela , and Syria would not have fallen either.

All this time, you were focusing on Russia’s planes landing in Venezuela. Now we can see that Venezuela is very weak.

And for those saying it would not have been easy if it was in Nigeria. We don’t even have air defense, if the US decided to act, they could capture Tinubu in under ten minutes. In fact, Nigeria might not even realize the US was present before it was over.

Overall, we need peace in the world. That is why I support Russia and China to help curb US military excesses.
russia took the right path
exfiltrating zelensky would not have had a material impact on long-term objectives
russia wants nato to halt its aggression and they have to beat nato to a standstill to get that
capturing zelensky just means they'll try again with a new puppet

the hegemony has a different objective
they don't care if venezuela becomes a pre-bukele el salvador
all they want to show is that they're still the top dog in the western hemisphere
and every leader in the region serves at the pleasure of washington

this is a setback for the axis
but the axis is resilient
lots of options to salvage this quagmire

venezuela vice president of policy, citizen security and peace diosdado cabello

What they tried to achieve with the bombs and missiles they launched, they only partially succeeded in doing. And I say partially because they expected the people to perhaps run wildly, cowardly. No.
he was speaking to security forces
🤷‍♂️

omo these people don run everybody street
did they sell out maduro and are now jostling for who will take the mantle
and how desperate does the us have to be to agree to take out only maduro and leave his axis cabinet

there are sanctions on most of the government
so why are they still yapping?

2026 go long

Getting Venezuela is ok, but the real prize should be Iran.. Having a pro western vassal in Iran would solve at lot of problems for the US and potentially Israel too

The greatest diplomatic failure of the US more than even allowing China into the world trade organisation was allowing Iran fall into the hands of hardliner Islamist..

Think of all the possibilities given her population, size and strategic location in the middle-east

even the venezuelan opposition is mute
machado, guaido and co
no one has declared themselves president

no one wants to be the first target of an assassination attempt
as some of them are still in the country

in local parlance
come and see latin america wonder

when assad fell, there was no ambiguity
we knew who was the interim president and who he would hand over to run the transitional government
this does not even look like regime change
even the us is only announcing that they arrested maduro to face criminal charges
nothing about the rest of his regime that are still in firm control of the country

I know that trump will do everything possible to remove Maduro from power. That's has been his plan since he was elected in 2017. If not that's he loss to Biden in 2020. He would have removed Maduro as early as 2021. But finally, he has achieved his aim.

Now. Oil corporation like Chevron can now go and milk as much as oil they want. It is a big win for them .

Killing or kidnapping Zelensky won't still change anything. America will still appoint another Russiophobic Ukraine as president.

Putin knows all these. Kidnapping Zelensky is not his goals. It is very irrelevant.

Russia will achieve all her goals in Ukraine and by that time the West will have no option than to agree to Russia terms and conditions in Ukraine.

IRAN PROTEST SITREP

it is clear that satanyahu, pahlavi, and co are trying to see if they can carry out a ukraine style maidan revolution
they were hoping for an organic unrest
but most iranians are not biting

so now they're trying to trigger an uptick in violence and fatalities
but the iranian security services have a lot of experience from previous riots, are exercising a great deal of restraint after the 12D war, and pezeshkian, to his credit, has avoided the combative posture of his predecessors

first a basij member was killed
then a cop was set on fire
both happened in tier 2/3 cities
today, opposition/MEK remnants organized a group of about 50 to try to forcefully take over government installations in lordegan
they were armed and engaged in a shootout
they tried three times to breach. two assailants were killed.

the authorities did not crack down on the protests that these elements tried to subvert
when you're tired of exercising, you go back home

the increase in frequency of russian cargo deliveries suggest the axis considers this unrest to be the opening salvo of the regional war
nothing will come of it ultimately because the internal enemies simply cannot achieve critical mass
but the 🤡🤡 will try to use the chaos to redeploy and stage saboteurs and infiltrators for the imminent hot war

perhaps if the afghans had not been deported, this would have already become an inferno
😃 the foreign governments and media that would have been issuing press releases by the hour warning against crackdown and highlighting the number of fatalities have nothing to report
after this fizzles out, then it's time for boom boom tel aviv
no deity is stopping that inevitability

-Lord
It was another master calculus by Mossad. The timing says it all. But, like you rightly said, the elements that could have triggered this protest into an inferno have been effectively watered down, if not entirely eradicated.

The afghans would have caused a huge problem for the damn Ayatollah and pez governments. Thanks though for their mass deportation earlier on.

Remember in my last post I did mention that Netanyahoo was banking on something on the ground in Iran to help put the odds in his favor. The riot was ongoing while he flew to Washington and presented Donald Trump new options to strike Iran again. Perfect timing. Not a coincidence.

Had the riot gone ballistic, fighter jets and missiles would have been flying in from different directions towards Iran. In other words, the riot was a bait, but so far, the pez government hasn't swallowed it. Nicely played.

Let's wait and see if there is a second option on the table for the yahooboy in Tel Aviv.

If a color coded revolution didn't do the trick, a false flag operation must do it. VP Vance said recently that he worried EU nukes would fall into the hands of ISIS. You heard that right.

A false flag operation is in the making.

You have never been bright this boy

If you think Russia can pull this off, then you should get your frontal lobe checked

As par targeting world leaders... the way you reason things needs to be studied.. You believe Russia can and will target leaders of other countries coming to see Zelensky?? 👀 targeting such persons would be seen as an act of war.. Russia is struggling against Ukraine you want to add to her problems.😂😂😂

P.s Before leaders make such trips especially to a war zone aggrements would have been made...bearing in mind these countries still have diplomatic relations with Russia.. exchanges would have been made to ensure there is no form of costly mistake

they also terminated three infiltrators that were trying to seize weapons from an armory
this is providing the perfect opportunity to delete the foreign and domestic agents satanyahu and co had been keeping on ice for later activation

you claim you are a protester, you left the roads and squares to attempt to raid an armory
normal people write or print placards, those ones are producing incendiary devices
the axis has learned from the ukraine fiasco

they will keep trying and the security services will be punching their tickets to the after life
after all when the hot war starts, these are the same elements they will seek to use for intelligence gathering and assassinations

-Lord
It is now clear that an element of these insiders still remains after 12D. This protest is a blessing in disguise rooting them out of their hide out.

Again let us not give in to the US disinformation campaign.

It's the same thing they did against Iran. Trying to force Khamenei to reveal his location. It's the oldest trick in their book.

Until you see Maduro on US soil, believe nothing.

It's almost impossible that Maduro didn't give himself up. Even Shekau wouldn't have been this easy. There's also a video of VZ defense minister calling for war but I'm not sure if it is authentic.

Regarding Putin and Zelensky, it's obvious that the Eastern powers are still abiding by old and abandoned norms. USA of today wouldn't hesitate to use a nuclear warhead on any country if their hegemonic interests demand it but what about them? Anyway, I let's see what will unfold before I start venting

The US doesn't really need a pro western vassal in Iran. By pro west, I mean a hard liner pro west. Before the 1979 revolution, Iran despite being a Muslim country was not much of a hard liner as regards religion. It wasn't compulsory for women to use hijab and all sorts. The Ayatollah Khomeini regime brought all these nonsense upon them. A return to the Shah rule is enough. It will make America have less to worry about as long as that place is concerned. If a hard liner pro west is installed, there is possibility of another toppling of the government by extremists such as the Khomeini. Furthermore, it further dents America's image as a coded imperial nation.

I totally agree with you second paragraph concerning China. They should have let Japan finish them off.
