Can we just not, for one minute?
How much more fucked does this world have to get, feels like all this conflict is accelerating more conflict.
Canada isn’t currently preparing to invade anyone, if that helps.
As far as anyone knows.
I dunno. They’ve amassed 90% of their population along the US border.
We’re just warming ourselves by the fire.
lol ok that was pretty good
Better not see any missionaries or settlers…
You only stay peaceful because America keeps you passive with sedatives the CIA puts in the Horton’s. You think it is the free healthcare that makes a border wall unnecessary? Naw, you have TH brought to you by Pfizer making the maze look like nothing.
The problem is if theres enough distractions around others might not notice. Coupled with everyone else fighting it becomes the time to be bold and make moves on people you see an issue with.
Think a big har fight, everyone is boxing on and you see the bloke you dont like, thats the perfect time to jump in and punch him in the head too
“Our troops are merely passing by…”
Fucking fantastic. Just what we need.
Another oil war to prop up an unpopular leader.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Venezuela is expanding military bases near its border with Guyana and deploying forces to the jungle frontier as President Nicolás Maduro ramps up his threats to annex the country’s oil-rich neighbour, satellite images have revealed.
Maduro pledged at mediation talks in December not to take military action against his neighbour but images shared by the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) in Washington today suggest a buildup of forces.
“This escalatory behavior on the part of Venezuela creates opportunities for miscalculation and loss of control over events on the ground,” CSIS warns in its report on the escalating dispute.
Analysts had seen Maduro’s sabre-rattling as a means to build support ahead of elections expected this year but have suggested it could also be an attempt to pressure Guayana into sharing revenue from recent oil discoveries.
“All of this suggests that Maduro may have originally had domestic reasons for what he is doing, but now the strategy is to compel the Guyanese into some sort of concessions,” Hernandez-Roy said.
Guyanese officials are to meet with heads of the Caricom political union to discuss their response with their Caribbean allies.
The original article contains 406 words, the summary contains 189 words. Saved 53%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Anyone know if Guayana has enough of a military to deter Venezuelan aggression? I am not under the impression they can mount a defense but hoping I am wrong.
744k people in that country. I doubt they have a strong enough military. I really hope that the US does not get involved cause we will go from protectors to suppressors reality quick.
Someone has to help them. Who else is up on deck for that?
Britain, as they were a British colony.
Every time we help someone. They end up worse than they were before. There are plenty of other nations that could provide help. The US just likes to fuck shit up and make it worse. Look at our history in the Americas. Every time we get involved it gets worse.
