        I am well aware of American interested here on their “backyard”, but starting a “civil war” between latinamerican countries isn’t how we’re going to defeat imperialism. You are also defending the annexation of 70 percent of a country. You are also forgetting that Venezuela doesn’t have nukes, and the US has zero reason to not get involved, with boots on the field if needed be. At the end of the day I’m not worried that Maduro will succeed, at all, but I still don’t support war for oil. If you like war so much, maybe ask Xi to start one with Japan and South Korea, prime examples of American imperialism in Asia.

            Yes, I am. I defend Venezuela when it comes to the bloody sanctions the Americans put on them, I defend that the US should stay the heck away from their oil (if you know the story of Hugo Chavez as president, that’s a prime example of America messing with another country to take their oil), but I don’t defend their own quest to take another country’s oil.

            The Arab world did try to free Palestine with strong military operations. But the Americans had the Zionists’ back and the rest is history.

                My point is that they did try military action and it didn’t work out for them. What is happening in Gaza today isn’t consequence of them not fighting back, because they did fight. And they weren’t wrong for trying to defend Palestine against colonialism.

                Read the article I shared with you. Its a disputed land and Venezuela is protecting it from ExonMobil.

                No they’re not, they want to annex the whole fucking territory, and the idea that a country like Venezuela can “protect” another country by buying a war with the US is ridiculous, which is why it probably won’t happen. If there is any way to stop the Americans to get that oil, that one isn’t it.

                    Fighting against colonialism thats what Arab states did by invading Israel lol. You don’t know history or you are very complacent to try to pin the fault of Israel and US on the Arab world. If you are shifting the blame on the Arab world you are no different from the US libs and wackies

                    ???

                    You didn’t even finish reading that paragraph I wrote, so I will do the same and not read your replies anymore 🙃
