    1. The ones who seek regime change are the Venezuelan people who suffer under the current Maduro tyranny.

      I mean, when you put a $50 million dollar bounty on a narco-dictator’s head, yeah regime change is kind of hinted at, you don’t need the naval ships near your waters to tell you that, Mr. Maduro.

      Ain’t the first or only country they can be considered „narcos…“

      I think Putin might bail him out. Wouldn’t it only take a single call from Putin to Trump?

      Im sure we can pull it off this time. Iraq and Afghanistan are doing so well after our last attempts.

      Yeah, sure the US want’s Maduro gone, But 4.5k marines and a handle of Destroyers isn’t the force we would send to do that. Unless pretty much everyone in the Pentagon and the entire part of the administration involved in Geopolitics has entirely lost their shit. Which, Trump notwithstanding, is VERY unlikely.

      US absolutely going to do a Regime change. Brazil, Colombia, and France will undoubtedly assist. The U.S sent a Marine Expeditionary Unit (MEU) in the region as a core part of the task force . Those MEUs are essentially a self contained combined arms brigade. They are meant to carry out very specific missions. Namely extractions, seizures, assassinations or force destruction requiring a small brigade sized force, fast track reinforcements, etc… They are a in and out in a short time period force. They will bring to bear all aspects of combined arms with their Navy partners to accomplish their mission before their enemy can organize.

      The assignment of a MEU wasn’t a giveaway as those are strategic units that are commonly part of task forces, but the bounty on the de facto head of state is extremely abnormal and indicative that this deployment will either be the force to conduct the regime change, or the building block that will see further force massing in the region.

      The 1983 invasion of Grenada saw the U.S deploy around 7300 troops.

      The 1989-1990 invasion of Panama saw the U.S deploy around 27,000 troops.

      I would likely expect more force massing to around 50,000-100,000 troops combined in the region. But Venezuela doesn’t have a modern military. So they could manage with a much smaller force if it’s just taking out Maduro.

      I’m just armchair generaling here. But based on similar deployments in the past, that’s just what I think.

      Wait wait

      Let me get this straight

      US purging immigrants/foreigners

      but then US wants to involve itself with foreigner issues?

    9. I hope they succeed. Venezuela’s regime is a nasty autocracy that won’t leave peacefully.

    10. Hopefully the US isn’t returning to imperialism. We have enough oil and we don’t need to go to war to help big oil in the US. That’s what it would be about since Venezuela hasn’t done anything to warrant military action and they are completely inconsequential. Invasion does help Putin justify Ukraine and China justify Taiwan though since there won’t be much of a difference in the eyes of the world.

      I have friends that managed to get out of Venezuela. Hearing their stories makes me want a regime change too.

    12. frybreadrecipe on

      Yes that’s what the USA loves to do. overthrow democracies and install puppets.

      US has aspirations of adding colonies everywhere. It will not happen. Their fat keyboard warriors think everyone wants to join them and their army is going to just roll everyone with no cost.

        I hope some adults take control back before that happens.

    14. DoubleHurricane on

      Well, the US certainly is seeking a regime cha- oh, you’re talking about Venezuela. Nm

      How else is Trump supposed to distract everyone from his pedophilia?
