Die Frage ist nicht, ob Maduro ein Despot war – sondern ob Recht durch Stärke ersetzt werden darf, ohne dass die internationale Ordnung irreversiblen Schaden nimmt. #Venezuela #USA #Trump #Clausewitz #GunboatDiplomacy #InternationaleOrdnung #Geopolitik

I’ll believe it’s about the drugs when we start bombing Purdue Pharmaceutical. This is about 3 things: distraction from domestic politics, stemming the flow of immigration, and controlling oil production. Zero long term strategic thinking behind this. #GunboatDiplomacy

The move risks a confrontation with US forces that have been ordered to blockade the South American nation.

If the US survives the current regime, which I am not holding my breath on, the damage now will take generations to fix. Then again, #AmericanEmpire #GunboatDiplomacy is not a new thing. This is just the latest manifestation of a long tradition. (e)

Look at this absolute delusional ‘might makes right ‘ BS. America is threatening sovereign nations on Trumped up charges of zero basis.
This is military use for #GunboatDiplomacy like a third world pirate stealing #oil tankers. Oh right, the USA already did that last week.

The USA doesn’t just get to use #GunboatDiplomacy, military blockade of trade, whenever they feel like it. Oil has already spiked 1% and this is because these idiots could declare this kind of delusional BS against any nation to blockade it.
America is acting like pirates and commuting warcrimes.
It's about the oil.

So while the #AmericanEmpire is doing some #GunboatDiplomacy, the Chinese send a hospital ship to help a hurricane ravaged island nation.

(Despite optics and the US having their hospital ships parked stateside, they did pledge some money and have sent some helicopters, but still, a whole hospital)
"A Chinese hospital ship quietly docked in hurricane-hit Jamaica this week, projecting soft power into the heart of the Caribbean where a US armada is conducting a controversial anti-narcotics mission targeted at Venezuela."
