Politics Actions in and around Venezuela

Unusual weapon used against Maduro.

• Witnesses say the U.S used a space Directed Energy Weapon that turned all their radars OFF, and also caused vomits, bleeding and paralysis on Cuban troops protecting Maduro.
• There’s also videos of Russian MANPADs being disabled mid-air while trying to attack American helicopters.

Now… What is my take?

Apparently, the Americans have sophisticated Electronic Warfare (Excluding the Directed Energy weapons) that can turn off enemy radars and missiles.


They used the Death star.

Ah, I have experienced this American weapon before. The US has used this weapon extensively in the Philippines. It's the PAY-UT Mark. 1. It's a direct energy weapon that runs on American dollars.... so effective it destroys terrorists hidden in our densest jungles. I guess this one is an upgrade as it now can shutdown and entire defense system.

Fuckers from Colectivo are the ones doing the snatching and disappearing. They will straight up stop you on the street demanding to unlock your phone and give it to them for "inspection".

Espionage is a cash and carry business model. Always has been.

Which is cheaper, two dozen HARM missiles or two dozen lunchpails of $100 bills. Gonna make it rain either way.

Yeah, not a pleasant reality. But it is reality.

If Machado was in charge, he would cut the deal with her. I wouldn't rule out that a line item in the deal is that she gets to return to Venezuela. Trump might play that card.

Of course none of this makes any of it "right". Negocios son negocios.

With President Trump’s blessing, Ms. Rodríguez has moved to redirect Venezuela’s oil exports from China to the much more lucrative market in the United States. Earlier this month she funneled the first tranche from these oil sales, $300 million, to Venezuela’s banking system, halting the collapse of the national currency and putting hyperinflation fears to rest.

Just wait and see how all of these assholes in power become millionaires withing the next year.

Meet the new boss, she knows the standard playbook.

And anybody who thought she would go easier because she is a woman . . . nope.

Only too glad to hand over her political opponents when the moment is right.
