  • Global reaction to U.S. strikes on Venezuela includes condemnation, concern for foreign nationals

    From cbsnews.com

    International leaders reacted swiftly on Saturday morning as President Trump confirmed U.S. military strikes in Venezuela and announced the capture of the country's leader, Nicolás Maduro, and his wife. Many U.S. adversaries, including some of Venezuela's nearest neighbors, condemned the strikes, while other governments around the world called for deescalation and voiced concern for their citizens in the Latin American nation. Colombia, which shares a border with Venezuela, called for urgent deescalation. It said it had "implemented steps to protect the civilian population, preserve stability on the ... (full story)

I have been waiting for news on how many people were murdered to get at these TWO. Seems this is not important. What a joke, 150 aircraft, thousands of military personnel sneaking in at the dead of night. No wonder they cannot win wars. Call it what it is... A chicken shit lawless operation. Any fool can crack a peanut with a sledgehammer.

Oh, my! Fake news again. Please just go to a third world radical country and don't come back.
Whatever your views on the situation I can’t possibly understand how quotes attributed to various people in positions of power, which you may or may not agree with, can be deemed “fake news”

Trump: ‘I’m not going to start wars, I’m going to stop wars’

Let’s see what the MAGA crowd makes of his non interventionist promises and real life…

All leftists out there don't seem to care at all about how the Venezuelan people feel. Well, I'll tell you how they feel. They want freedom; not European-style freedom (socialism/communism) - REAL freedom!

Anecdotal evidence suggests that even some elements in MAGA are cracking. This wasn't supposed to happen. I only know what I have read; those actually in the US would be much better sources.

I know some high profile commentators have broken, I forget their names. Other things, like the farmers getting their noses out of joint. It is well known that Marjorie Taylor Greene has gone AWOL, with certain hostility.

Of course this is correct, but in the rather unspeakable circumstances I think it is actually really important to get your timelines right. Show some decency.

Starmer was elected to the House of Commons in 2015.

The tragic events you refer to occurred between the late 1980s and 2013.

Post-Cold War interventions in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia and Libya have, in many cases, struggled with long-term stability and prosperity, often resulting in complex and worst outcomes.
Actually, destabilization in those regions was and still is the mission by bad actors in high places...

i am sure the MAGA crowd will love it and fully endorse his actions. At least DT has a backbone and takes action - as opposed to our UK prime minister who is limp and slippery. His government is more interested in making arrests for hurty words, but if you are a rapist, pedophile or wife abuser (esp. Muslim) then you are shown leniency.

Show some decency to whom? The Venezuelans? Americans? The Labour Government? Muslims? Or the many girls that were groomed and raped whose lives have been ruined?
During his tenure as Director of Public Prosecutions (2008-2013), Sir Keir Starmer faced criticism for the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS’s) handling of grooming gang cases.
2024: The scandal continued to unravel, with Operation Stovewood convicting 11 more men in Rotherham. This brought the total number of convicted individuals to 61 since 2010, further exposing a timeline marred by delays and systemic neglect.

What is your evidence about being sure about MAGA loving it? I know that they should, of course, despite what he does being illegal and clearly contrary to International Law.

Probably in general they will, sigh, but I'm guessing - unlike you I'm not sure.

Trump is Supreme Leader, after all.

I happen to think that he has lost control of his brain.

Are you an advisor to Trump? I'll assume that you are. Or pretend that you are.

Because there isn't any communism in Europe. Communist countries are China, Cuba, Nth Korea, Vietnam and Laos.

What people feel and what people want are entirely different concepts.

Just sayin'. In case you have to write a media release or something for Trump.

Now that's easy, isn't it? Taking just a little bit of time to clarify some facts which are reasonably particular to the point you were making. That is decent.

I am possibly alone in this, but I knew less than nothing about Starmer before he became PM. Some may still not know who he is. So sue me. How much do you know about Australia's Prime Minister and her life history without doing a search?

I’m not a leftist. When you totally disregard the rule of law it’s an easy slide. What, Greenland next? I’m sure there’s a justification

Only country which prospered after military intervention by US is Panama.

Post-Cold War interventions in places like Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia and Libya have, in many cases, struggled with long-term stability and prosperity, often resulting in complex and worst outcomes.

Hopefully Venezuela will have success.
