US forces have seized an oil tanker off the coast of Venezuela, in a major escalation of Donald Trump’s four-month pressure campaign against the South American country’s dictator, Nicolás Maduro.

    Ah yes you are displaying the kind of intelligence the US military favours in its recruits. Non at all.

      Whatever dude. I know what I’m talking about because I lived in Venezuela at a time when they tried to oust Chávez, and failed miserably.

        Great for you but that’s got nothing to do with what we were talking about which was you thinking that a war between Venezuela and the United States would be a good thing.

          edit: actually I misremembered. The OP said that “we” needed to organize better. I guess meaning to say organize better to stop this war on its tracks.

          I guess I can agree with that.

      I won’t say my grammar is perfect, but I do try not to misspell things and insult other people’s intelligence at the same time.

        You seem to be under the deluded impression that a war between two people only affects those two people, so yeah I’m insulting your intelligence. Do you even know what a war is, I know that’s a stupid question but I’m seriously asking because it sounds like you don’t?
