United States don’t need/want a new endless-war with Venezuela.

Remember how easy it was to invade Irak in 2003? Secretary of State Colin Powell, waving a test tube of supposed anthrax in front of the cameras at the Security Council, and just like that, it was all over: the marines landed. But they never found some biological, chemical, or nuclear weapons.

Yesterday in Irak, the mass destruction weapons. Today in Venezuela, some fentanyl plants? But the chemicals are all coming from China via Mexico. It’s the same stupidity in the White house. Actually Iraq was a major oil producer, like Venezuela is today. Greed of certain people in the president’s inner circle was the great motivation for the second Iraki  war. Like it is today  in the same inner circle in Washington. Same people, same greed/mistake.

Everybody agrees today to say that the invasion of Iraq was a military and strategic disaster: Shiites rule in Baghdad today and this government is an Iran’s ally. Former supporters of Saddam Hussein are still leading ISIS between Syria and Iraq. And it took 20 years to leave Iraq. It has cost $2 trillion for war plus $500 billion for veterans until 2050. All for what? Nothing…

Certainly not the sympathy of the Iraqis. They would rather hate us.

Remember what Colin Powell said to Bush Jr.: « What happens after (the invasion)? If you bring down a government, a regime, guess who becomes the government, the regime, and the one in charge of the country? You. So if you break it, you pay. »

Can you afford it in Venezuela? And elsewhere in Latin America, Donald? Let me doubt.
