61. Whatever
Edited on Fri Aug-04-06 03:48 PM by Marie26
Please don't patronize me. I've lived in Latin America & am aware of the history of the region. Historically, coups & assassinations are how the US gets its way in Latin America. I don't care how many bases we build, the US doesn't have the forces to take over Venezuela. And it doesn't even need to. All it needs to do is get a new leader who's more favorable to US policy. This is usually CIA paramilitary stuff, not military stuff. I think anyone who really thinks that we're about to militarily take over Venezuela is pretty delusional at this point. What's more likely, IMO, is a coup, assassination or a covert paramilitary operation funded by the US. That's got very little to do with bases.
