40k-50k Americans have a duty to get out of a war zone. Problem solved.

Let's predict the "Gulf of Tonkin" incident that we use to justify a new war with no end in sight

This was our fear when Trump picked people like Bolton to be among his closest advisers. He continues to surround himself with the worst hires time and time again.

So we told them to leave but must invade anyway.

That would suck.

...and why didn't they leave when they had the chance? Are these 40-50K American expatriates who wanted to live in Hugo's Socialist Paradise?

Look. I get that people are tired of the USA sending troops into other countries. But, this is in South America, not Iraq, Syria or Afghanistan.

If we have other surrounding South American countries working with us and sharing the burden of going into Venezuela to help the people, I don't have a problem.

But, we need a clear entry and exit strategy.

The Monroe Doctrine makes sense. We don't want Russia, China or some other country outside of the Americas filling in the void. And we don't need the freaking UN either.

Venezuela is screwed and they desperately need help.

Personally I hope not. I'm a conservative but I am not a war hawk. Enough of our people have died on foreign soil, I would rather we leave it to the other countries to resolve their own bullshite

At least we won't have to fly as far when we bomb Caracas. Easy day from Barksdale, Eglin, NAS Pensacola, etc.

Venezuela is not our problem.

We need to secure our own border.

Ignoring the political ramifications here and in South America, would it even really be much of a fight?

....Ah send in a squadron of A-10's. Maybe for good measure drop a bunkerbuster on their Military Operations Center. You know right down the center of the building down the ventilation shaft. Just like Stormin Norman et al did in Iraq. While you're there.....fry a few of dem Cuban advisors.....couple of ruskies too. You know spread the body parts liberally around the place. Let the Columbian Army mop up.

Parade rest!! At ease! Smoke'um if you got'um
