I realize these people are more than likely nothing but "do gooders," but I certainly would not have any problem if the state dep't started issuing instructions with passports telling US citizens that if they go to "unfriendly" places like Venezuela, Cuba, Iran, N.

(This is not exactly the same country that it was when Reagan sent the military into Grenada for US MD students.)
Wonder what will happen in Venezuela when Hugo makes the foreign oil field workers that he has told NOT to leave even though he's sending the military in to assist the transition to grabbing the fields from the foreign companies, "guests" of the state, or hostages?
