Someone investigate the ships to see if they're old to see if they gonna false-flag Venezuela. I know that Nothing Ever Happens, but Trump has already put a price to Maduro's head and these news… I think something's cooking, something's sizzling.
Just making this thread in the case to discuss this, and to see if there are further happenings. I'm going to be honest, I'm getting bad vibes from this.

>>2536170Yes but I cant tell you without fedposting.

>>2536206what the fuck is PT going to do when he dies? Run Haddad again?
>>2536204That's not a favela, that's a quebrada (eerily similar to mine).
>>2536272He's grooming Boulos. Yes, Boulos, Haddad, Alckmin… Brazil is a crypto-arab country.

I cant believe America is going to war with vuvuzelas. I mean I thought they were annoying during the South African world cup but I think this is a bit of an overreaction
>>2536326quebrada down on my dick, lmao gottem.
>>2536327A simpler time. A easier time. :(
>>2536272Brasil has a historic of parties being propped up by a single leader that dies or twist itself like a pretzel, when Lula dies PT will either split or become even more rightist, it's already the Democrat party on brazil so it's gonna follow that way.
>>2536327>I cant believe America is going to war with vuvuzelas.it was kind of obvious that the US would sooner or later start some shit in latam
EMPTY BARRACKS
>>2536327>I cant believe America is going to war with vuvuzelas.You wouldn't be surprised if you learned theory (James Cameron's Avatar)
>>2536350>How do people become this comfortable with lying? I really don't understand itbecause nobody holds them up against a wall and fires two rounds into their useless lying brain stem for being reactionary pieces of shit whose only purpose in life is to defend the narratives of the powerful from the scrutiny of everyone else
>>2535989>Is it safe to assume Trump's Venezuela SMO will start once that aircraft carrier arrives?Dunno, but Trump is unlikely to be a restraint cuck like Putin and end up in some WWI trench war (with fiber-optic drone characteristics). Plus, no country will provide tangible assistance to Ven, because also unlike Putin, Trump won't hesitate to consider those countries co-belligerents, especially if they give Ven missiles that kill American citizens on American soil.
>>2536269>Regime Change By DecapitationCorrect. Not guaranteed to get the government the US wants, but that's the gamble: decapitation strikes or some other form of low-risk assassination.
>Venezuela will be a second VietnamIncorrect. Trump isn't going to do anything more than decapitation and strat bombing. At worst it will be a clownshow that accomplishes nothing.
>>2536639Yeah I think even Trump is smart enough to know that actually getting stuck in to any degree will basically cede the Asia theater to China. That's why they did what they did in Iran, bombing run and 30 missiles then ceasefire
>>2536639You don't have to come here to repeat yourself every day, you know.
>>2536808Repeat your meds.
>>2536639>Trump isn't going tothats how it always works. pentagon lies to commander in chief that war will be "over by christmas" and then when it isn't tells them how bad it will be for midterms if they "abandon our boys". only time it didn't work was kennedy
Trump Insider Claims Admin Will Coordinate With Congress On Venezuela 'When Maduro's Corpse Is In U.S. Custody': Report
A person close to the White House said the Trump administration is set to continue escalating pressure against the Venezuelan regime, and it will only coordinate its actions with Congress "when (authoritarian President Nicolas) Maduro's corpse is in U.S. custody."
The person made the claim while discussing with Semafor criticism against the legal justifications for the administration's strikes off Venezuela and Colombia.
The outlet noted that so far the White House has held six classified briefings for lawmakers about the pressure campaign. Most Republicans remain supportive of the campaign, with some even taunting the Maduro regime and claiming its end is near. Others, however, are voicing doubts.
Republican Sen. Todd Young said on Thursday he is seeking to "learn more" about the campaign, telling Axios that "Congress isn't hearing enough — in any form, including a public forum." He went on to say that lawmakers need to be involved in the discussion of legal ramifications of the strikes.
"I think Congress needs to go further. Rather than just asserting our ability to authorize military force — which we certainly need to do — we also need to officially bring to close these conflicts and make clear that we have constitutional prerogatives that need to be consistently asserted," Young added.
The lawmaker has also requested a meeting with Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to discuss the campaign, and asked the Upper House's Foreign Relations Committee to hold oversight hearings.
Moreover, Sen. Rand Paul joined a bill introduced by Democratic Sen. Tim Kaine, which will force a vote to stop Trump from unilaterally declaring war on the South American country.
Paul addressed the move in a social media publication, claiming "it's imperative that we make it clear that war powers reside with Congress, not the president."
Trump seemingly intends to move ahead with the campaign despite the reservations. "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead," he said on Thursday, claiming the administration intends to take on cartels operating in the country and led by regime members.
Maduro, on his end, said his regime has "more than 5,000" Russian-made Igla-S surface-to-air missiles positioned across the country, warning that they stand ready to defend the country should the U.S. conduct strikes in its territory.
"Any military force in the world knows the power of the Igla-S," Maduro said during a televised address. "Venezuela has nothing less than 5,000 of these at key air defense posts to guarantee the peace, stability and tranquility of our people." He described the Igla-S as "one of the most powerful weapons that exist," adding that the nation's air defense operators were fully trained to use them "from the last mountain to the last city."
<The Imperialist Offensive is Nothing New for the Bolivarian Revolution’: A Conversation with Ana Maldonado>A Chavista organizer examines the US militarization of the Caribbean and the Bolivarian Revolution’s enduring resistance to imperial aggression.
>In recent months, Washington has stepped up its military presence in the Caribbean, sending warships, aircraft, and even a nuclear submarine to waters near Venezuela amid extrajudicial attacks on fishing vessels. For many, this new phase of aggression is all too familiar — part of a decades-long campaign of hybrid warfare designed to undermine Venezuela’s sovereignty.
>In this context, Cira Pascual Marquina spoke with Ana Maldonado, a sociologist, international relations coordinator for the Francisco de Miranda Front—a national Chavista movement—and member of the Venezuelan chapter of ALBA Movements. In this interview, Maldonado offers her perspective on how Venezuelans are experiencing the latest imperialist escalation, reflects on the country’s long resistance to hybrid war, and situates the current threat within the broader struggle for sovereignty in Latin America and the Caribbean.https://venezuelanalysis.com/interviews/the-imperialist-offensive-is-nothing-new-for-the-bolivarian-revolution-a-conversation-with-ana-maldonado/
<Venezuela Denounces US-Backed Military Drills by Trinidad and Tobago as Hostile Provocation>The information was released in a statement by Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez. In the statement, Venezuela reported it captured a mercenary group with direct information from the US intelligence agency, the CIA, and has determined that a false flag attack is being prepared from waters bordering Trinidad and Tobago or from Trinidadian or Venezuelan territory itself. It warned this could lead to a full-blown military confrontation against Venezuela.
>“We are not intimidated by military exercises or war cries. The Bolivarian National Armed Force (FANB) will remain alert and mobilized in perfect Popular-Military-Police unity in the face of this extremely serious provocation. Our Republic, heir to Bolívar and Chávez, will always defend its sovereignty, its territorial integrity, and its right to live in peace against foreign enemies and their vassals,” the statement read.https://orinocotribune.com/venezuela-denounces-us-backed-military-drills-by-trinidad-and-tobago-as-hostile-provocation/
<Venezuela Bolsters Coastal Defense with 700+ Strategic Points>In a decisive move to safeguard national sovereignty, the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela has activated a massive network of over 700 coastal defense points as part of its ongoing “Coastal Independence 200” military exercise.
>President Nicolás Maduro announced the deployment, framing it as a necessary response to persistent external threats, primarily from the United States, aimed at destabilizing the nation’s hard-won peace and the Bolivarian project.
>The strategic deployment, which began on Thursday, October 23, establishes 73 central points of operation for the National Bolivarian Armed Forces (FANB), with each point branching out into approximately ten more.
>This creates a robust defensive web of up to 1,000 locations along the coastline, designed to protect the nation from what authorities describe as ongoing imperialist aggression.https://www.telesurenglish.net/venezuela-bolsters-coastal-defense-with-700-strategic-points/ >>2538788Even if they don't directly want to use the oil they can benefit from taking off the market, either way they don't want that oil to be reinvested in Venezuela
>>2536485Based. Agreed.

>>2539251>Maduro status?They likely know where he is and what weapon to use but are seeing whether they can cause a "totally organic" coup first.
Why has Saudi Arabi been successful with its entire economy running on oil while Venezuela has not?
>>2539604because they are puppets?
>>2539639Saudi Arabia aren't puppets lmfao they could be anti-West if they ever wanted to.
