They are not interested in freedom or liberty...they do not fathom that that is what has allowed their own accomplishments. They just want power and more wealth and are willing to do it on the backs of others. Ultimately, all such shall have their own reward...as history has shown.

....repeated his call for a regional military alliance against Britain and the United States.regional military alliance??? (snicker)
We won't need to anything except stop all money transfers to South American.
All their economies would collapse.

Yep...we’re already in World War III. Sides are being chosen, alliances established and the initial shooting is already well underway.

That’s huge.
I really need to get computer Harpoon up and running again, so I can wargame some of the scenarios out there today.

“Maybe not with US air support.”
Even if the British fleet were to survive with the help of US air power, it will be a muzzie fleet soon ready to pounce on us.

I believe they could get that capabiliuty back quickly. I do not believe the Sea Harriers were destroyed. If so, then they are in even worse trouble.
But, even if they are not and the UK could get them on those carriers...the SU-30s, in well trained hands, would be able, IMHO, to overwhelm the Sea Harriers. They would need our help.

Chavez is a devil. Special Forces should be chomping at the bit to get that pimple on the world’s butt.
Hi Jeff. It’s been a while!

It also has to do with bad (self indulgent) leadership IMO. I agree with your premise though.

>>Ill admit to not really understanding why more of those nations havent done better.
Lack of rule of law. Lack of respect for private property. Kleptocratic governments/elites.
There of course are many other factors, but those are the biggies, again and again and again.

>I personally believe it is time for a joint UK and US carrier exercise in the carribean to shut this idiot up. One or two of their Invinsible class, and one Nimitz class and their escorts would be all that was needed.<
You didn’t include the #1 item, the willingness to defeat and crush the entire Venezuelan military force, then obliterate the Chavez administration.
These days we are hesitant about overpowering foreign governments with “undue” force for fear that we will be seen as a monster who doesn’t know when to stop killing.
As long as we permit our State Department to discuss tactical operations winning is impossible. I am fed up with appeasments and agreements to end the combat.
I want the enemy to be begging us not to erradicate their people, not demanding compensation for damages to their national treasures.

This guy is an absolute kook.
His first problem would be getting his Sukois to the scene.
Venezuela is thousands of miles from the Falklands.
Cooperation with several SA countries would be needed to ferry them close to the action. Unlikely, but I guess it sounds good to the masses.
