US Military Actions in Venezuela: War, Drugs, and Illegal Orders

US Military Actions in Venezuela

• 🇺🇸 The US has attacked Venezuelan fishing boats, which are claimed to be drug boats, leading to questions about potential war.
• 🎯 The State Department designated a Venezuelan organization as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, which some argue is used to justify actions.

Complicity and Drug Trade

• 🤝 There is documented evidence suggesting US involvement with Venezuelan drug gangs since the 1990s, with the CIA's fingerprints on global drug trade routes.
• 🔍 The labeling of drug trade routes as terrorism by Washington is seen as ironic, given alleged US exploitation of these same routes.

Motivations for Conflict

• ❓ The stated military objectives related to the drug trade are questioned as a fabrication, with no clear attainable objective for American national security.
• 💰 While oil is a potential motive, Venezuela's offer of oil access was reportedly rejected, suggesting other factors may be at play.
• 🔄 Past attempts at regime change operations in Venezuela by the Trump administration are recalled, with suggestions that the current actions might be a continuation of those efforts.

Legality and Military Ethics

• ⚖️ The designation of an organization as terrorist is argued not to be a license for summary execution or acting outside the law.
• ⚠️ The actions are described as extrajudicial executions, raising concerns about the military leadership's adherence to lawful orders.
• ❓ Questions are raised about why military leadership is not refusing to obey potentially illegal orders, as military ethics training dictates.
• 😟 The lack of resignations from military personnel over these actions is seen as alarming and raises questions about the US military's ethical standards compared to other regimes.

Drug Enforcement Strategy

• 🎯 A more effective approach to drug enforcement would involve targeting top drug-producing regions and addressing the demand side of the drug trade.
• 🚫 The current actions in Venezuela are dismissed as "nonsense" if the goal is genuine drug control.

Ivermectin and American Medicine

• 💊 The Wellness Company is highlighted for producing American-made Ivermectin, contrasting with the global supply often sourced from China.
• 💰 A special offer is presented for a six-month supply of US-made Ivermectin, emphasizing support for domestic production.
