I don't know if you heard, but there's this place called "Venezuela"...
Yes and at this point he hasn't done anything nearly as bad as Bush in Iraq he very probably could but i truthfully see it more likely he doesn't and just bombs some land claims he destroyed drug operations and continues the aggression and so on he could turn it to Iraq 2.0 but so far he hasn't. To be clear what he's done already is terrible and he will almost certainly do more.
Give it a minute. The Bush administration hyped the idea of WMDs in Iraq for well over a year before they actually invaded.
And considering the size of the military build-up that's been going on off the coast of Venezuela over the last several months, it's pretty obvious what their intensions are. There is no other practical reason for that amount of ships, planes and active duty personnel, other than invasion.
