Well ... if the country in question does not produce any oil, has any other important mineral resources, is not of any other strategic importance to the US, or is directly in the front yard ... then the US basically watches and is interested in a crap for it.
That’s right. We look after our interests, just like every other country on the planet ... including your crap country.
Leave Venezuela alone. Don't give that shathole any money. Don't do a damn thing militarily. Ban all travel by US citizens to Venezuela; possibly continue to maintain a US Embassy presence but perhaps close it.
Should America invade Venezuela? Absolutely not. The fastest way to help the Venezuela people in a humane way would be to lift all trade sanctions & let them get what they need. Keeping the sanctions in place is simply punishing the innocent people of Venezuela for actions taken by a former leader, and is completely unwarranted.
For those who want a war on Venezuela, how many of you have volunteered and taken your marching orders there? Still waiting for picture post cards from you "heroes".
