And this is the Russian doctrine. Brute force with limited capabilities in a asymmetrical complex political climates.


Because brute force is the only language the vampires understand.

Why do you think they fear Russia?

Because Russia just want to kill and kill until there's no one left.

Masterviolence:
To be candid, Trump reassured U.S. oil corporations that they were free to get in and extract as much oil as possible, this assurance explains why the armada was deployed in the first place.


However, in response to mounting international backlash, Trump sought to coerce the Venezuelan government into acquiescing to his demands, attempting to recast what would effectively be the appropriation of Venezuela’s oil as a legitimate economic partnership (an “oil deal” ) between the Venezuelan and U.S. governments.

Nevertheless, even if the Venezuelan government were to yield to this pressure, the arrival of U.S. oil firms would almost certainly precipitate further destabilization, as their operations would amount to the plundering of the nation’s long-term economic future.

They can't because they have seen those who tried it and were messed up without China or Russia supporting them.
It is better to just be neutral or loyal to US. Quietly eat your money for 4/8 years and leave instead of destabilizing your country.

Undoubtedly Trump plan in capturing Maduro is absolutely reckless. It so surprising how US do this without loss of some life's. For Trump to go ahead and do this when realistically this can claim the lives of few GI shows how reckless he can be. And this have little strategic importance than just boss show off (maybe I'm wrong).

But daring Chinese to carry out similar move is so dumb an idea. Not even the US with this might would do something similar if Taiwan is a foe.
People fail to realize how strategically powerful Taiwan is and with a strategic allies like the US. The war won't end well for China, not even a win will feel like victory.
What's the strategic importance of China annexing Taiwan? What do they want from Taiwan that they don't have? They want to risk it all just to prove to the world that China bites and not all talks?

Mind you realistically speaking there's no how China will attack Taiwan without first hitting US bases nearby in Guam and Okinawa cause these are strategically placed to respond to cases like this especially in the early stage of any invasion. So to increase any chance of success they'll have to carry our the pear Harbour approach, which itself is a direct declaration of war against US and Japan.
Now why will China risk a WW3? for what, Stupid emotions because the US is running wild around the world? Watin concern them and US?

Many of you guys lack tactical thinking and just work off emotions thats why you're not leaders

See you in accusing others of tactical thinking deficiency when from your own warp assertions and jingoistic purview you can't even see the geopolitical abyssal hellhole the emotionally driven and covetous dump Trump regime has dug for itself ditto Venezuela.

I won't even bother to take you up on that front. Let the events as they unfold in Caracas and beyond be the 2by3 that slap sense on your head.

You are not even ashamed that your glorified leader of the free world is a common thief, kidnapper, and pirate. It's your call anyway.


On the Taiwan issue, your post reeks of sheer ignorance and severe fundamental misunderstandings of historical facts, international law, and strategic/geopolitical reality.

Here are some clear legal facts and logical reasoning you should humbly educate yourself on:

1. In terms of Sovereignty and International Law, Taiwan has been an inalienable part of China's territory since ancient times. This is both legal and historical fact, recognized by the overwhelming majority of countries through the One-China Principle, which is the bedrock of diplomatic relations with China. United Nations General Assembly Resolution 2758 (1971) unequivocally recognizes the representatives of the Government of the People's Republic of China as the only legitimate representatives of China to the UN, expelling the representatives of the Taiwan authorities. There is no ambiguity—Taiwan is not a country; it is a part of China.

2. On the area of Strategic Importance, your question is, "What do they want from Taiwan that they don't have?" You didn't just miss the point entirely, you bare your ignorance to the rest of the public.

The issue is not about acquiring resources but about upholding national sovereignty and territorial integrity—a core interest of any nation. Any nation would go to war if need be to defend its territory and sovereignty. The reunification of the motherland is a sacred mission for the Chinese nation. Furthermore, Taiwan holds immense strategic significance for China's national defense, acting as a crucial link in the first island chain. Its separation is a historical legacy that must be resolved.

3. In terms of using Force vs Peaceful reunification, China's primary approach has always been peaceful reunification under the "One Country, Two Systems" framework, as seen in the case with Hong Kong and Macao. The commitment to peace is unwavering. However, the right to use all necessary means, including force, is universally reserved by all sovereign states against secessionist activities. This is a right of self-defense, not aggression. The hypothetical scenario of a "Pearl Harbor approach" is a reckless and inaccurate projection. China's military strategy is defensive in nature.

But, if you think that, in the face of constantly changing geopolitical realities, especially with competing peer powers pushing beyond the limit to change the calculus against China and put her at a disadvantage, and China will not act decisively, I can only say one thing; you're living in an alternate reality.

4. You even assumes automatic and unlimited US military involvement, which further shows how myopic and simplistic you create assumptions.

US involvement in Taiwan today is purely out of fear, desperation, and bitterness of one single realization: it has lost economic supremacy to China. China now out manufacture the US on every scale and sense of the word. Even in some key military areas, the US is currently trailing China, and with each passing day, that gap keeps widening. What is happening now in Venezuela is the US lashing out trying to stall the Chinese whichever way it could. But, this tactics is not only shortsighted, but will hasten its own demise on the long-run on many fronts. Everyone is taking notes. Even her own allies are staring in disbelief. Uncle Sam is boxing itself into a bleak reality that will soon dawn on her.

If the US keep pushing and gets to the limit of China's tolerance, bros, dem go collect. Make no mistake about it. A conventional war between the US and China in the Indo-pacific would be like child abuse. I see that this Maduro's stunt has gone over the heads of most of you NVBs here. This was the same US that ran away from the Red Sea peppered by the Houthis and begged Iran for a ceasefire in just 12 days. If China strikes Taiwan today, the US would be the first to evacuate its surrounding bases and staffs. And no, China doesn't need to attack Japan or anyone else first before taking out Taiwan. You're just reasoning upside down.

Don't bother replying. I want to follow what's going on in Caracas.
