...with the same type of tanks. I wonder if Venezuela has enough midgets to man those T-72 and T-90 tanks. My Marine friends said the turret on Russian-built tanks was so tight that odds were good a crewman would lose a body part when hit by the recoil or expended shell.

Yes, tanks are little more than targets without air control.

If Obamanista, Jr. was really worried about a US invasion, a better solution would be to start construction of elaborate tunnels, and resistance organizations to hamper any ability of the USA to occupy the country.
