Tomorrow (Tuesday) marks the end of the week that President Drumpf gave the Venezuelan President to clear out. I think that I will lose my bet (with myself only) that Drumpf will not order any type of invasion to remove the Donkey. I say this because this morning a private plane from Cuba carrying 4 Cubans blew up over Maiquetia (the international airport of Caracas). There is little doubt in my mind that this private plane was blown up by an American drone strike. I mean, how often does a small private plane blow up? And carrying 4 Cubans as well? Clearly, the Yanks mean business.
I have lost my bet (with myself only). I had bet myself that Drumpf, fearing international and South American responses, would conclude that it was too risky and not in the best interests of the united States to invade Venezuela. After all, countries don't have friends - they have interests! That approximately 80% of Venezuelans want to see the Donkey gone is also irrelevant.
Well, we'll see what happens next. I can't say that I will be sorry to see Maburro gone. He has (with not little help from the Cubans) managed to destroy the richest country in South America and caused one third of the country's population of approximately 30 million people to migrate. Can you imagine how traumatic it must feel awful to believe that you have no real choice other than to leave your family and friends behind?
No. Much as I dislike the American President, he has my full support if he removes Maburro.
