It will be stupid to attempt a take over of a country much stronger than you. Why should I support stupidity?
I love practical solutions. Maduro had zero control over the cartels in facr, he was in bed with them. It ony made sense to kick him out
And if the hypothetical country had enough strength to take over US, would you support it then?

America has only 330 million people.
China makes a trade surplus of 2 billion dollars daily.

US is indebted by 20 billion dollars daily.

Can you all just wean yourself of Hollywood?
So trade surplus is your reason?

Okay bro.

If Benin republic for example start kidnapping Nigerians, would I support military action? The answer is yes.

Y'all will continue to be daft and defend impunity at all cost because it has not affected you.
So for your mind now, USA is clean and they're the police of the world?
They can invade any sovereign country that won't have enough strength to fight back, bomb them indiscriminately, and kidnap their leaders indiscriminately?
Can USA dare do this to China, North Korea or Russia?
DO YOU KNOW HOW MANY INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT USA HAVE KILLED THIS MORNING IN THIS BOMBING?
If this was done to a Muslim country, you people would have been using the narratives of Islamic terrorists, right?
Just as you defended what those terrorists did to Palestinians, but you can cry that Russia is doing genocide to Ukraine...
Don't worry, karma exists... It'll one day be your turn and come to your doorstep.

In the coming weeks, The intoxicated terrorist will stop talking about drugs, and will now focus on the main goal, which is LOOTING.
This was what Obama did in Libya.
USA also did the same thing in Iraq, stealing tons of gold.

When Gaddafi was killed by those terrorists, some ignorant Libyans were jubilating, today we all know the status of Libya...

so they should allow them to keep sending drugs to them even when they have the power to stop it just because they too are not clean? Abeg shift one side

Okay bro.
Stop living in the past.

Technologically, China is far more advanced than US.

Their budget is balanced, they are more patriotic, and they can see the impact of government in their lives.

The cost of war is more manageable.

You'll never heal from daftness if you think this situation is about drugs.
Most of you are just irritatingly too daft to engage with...
Everything Trump has been talking about since this act of TERRORISM is oil and control. Yet, your types keeps talking about the drug b ullshits.
Why didn't Trump go to Mexico, Cuba and Colombia that traffics drugs even more?
You irritate and disgust me

SmartPolician:
The day China would be as powerful as America, they would do worse things. There should be a mechanism for taming these countries that consider themselves powerful
I fear China the most of all Global Power ... !

There is Mechanism for taming powerful Countries either Domestic Mechanism where Trump is voted Out or Impeached by his Own Legislature .... Or Sacked By Another Powerful Nation and They all Go to UN to Lament ....

But for Now ... Humanities is still Evolving from Crude State into Civil World !

I even wonder what you mean by CREDIBLE leader.

10-14% in Russia

1.5 - 3% in Iran

Ok. Do you also support the theft of Venezuela's oil or as President Trump suggested, sending US oil companies to invest billions of dollars?

Theft?
Lets not be childish here. Would you say that all the foreign oil companies in Nigeria are stealing our oil?
I am sure that American companies would have access to the Venezuelan oil but is that theft or doing business?
Anyway, lets wait and see how it goes down before we start making conclusions

Foreign oil companies operating is not automatically theft. It becomes theft when there is no legitimate consent. Or did you not see Trump claiming US will "run" Venezuela and have US oil companies move in there to invest billions? Do you believe the US has the rights to call those shots?

When US is deciding who gets to access another sovereign states oil, what will you call that if not theft?

Thats why its too early to have this conversation. Lets wait and watch the process instead of jumping into conclusions.
But one thing is very clear, the US will play a giant role in Venezuelan economic future.
As of today, we don't know much.
One more thing, we cant pretend that the world has changed much. There are always going to be super powers and its unwise for weaker nations to piss them off. This is how the world has been since nations were formed and its not going to change.

Exactly... that's why Iran will win in a war against them... because they built more ships than America

Which is it tho?! Trade surplus or ship building?!

You no get sense.

The drugs killing Americans are varied.
The two most important ones are Fentanyl and Methamphetamine.
Fentanyl comes from China.
Methamphetamine comes from Mexico.
So the reason Trump gave for invading Venezuela and abducting Maduro is an inexcusable excuse.
Make hin go try China or Mexico make we see.
