Build a wall...around Venezuela. Send all avowed socialists to live there. Let them work it out.

Sean Penn and Jim Carrey were reportedly outraged about this statement.

The head of the Organization of American States joined President Trump in holding out the threat of a military intervention there to restore democracy and ease the country’s humanitarian crisis.

The old nation building trick. - Tom

It's the Colombians who are picking up the bulk of the problem, and Colombia just isn't that big a country. Here's what the problem is:

Strange that we haven't heard a peep from the EU about this genuine emigration crisis. They're usually pretty shrill about this sort of thing, aren't they?

John Kennedy and Dean Rusk really believed the OAS could be effective. They helped to found it. I’d like to see the OAS put its charter (and character) to the test; our part in it should be to observe and see what happens. They all habla 3rd-worldese; we, not so much.

No. If a nation’s citizens won’t stay and fight for it, we should not go and fight for it. Talking, diplomacy, santions, OK.

Okay, do it and then send every citizen home to rebuild their country. 600,000 from the US.

Military intervention would last a few minutes. Colombia’s military is quite effective and other than intel..perhaps...there’s no need to get involved. The Maduro thugs will throw down their weapons immediately.

NO, we are isolationists now. We should cut the military to nothing.

I keep thinking about the USA-Castro debacle:

Had the US taken Castro out with extreme prejudice, like we should have when we had the opportunity (i.e., April, 1961), the USA, Mexico, the Carribean and all of South America would probably be much better places to live!

Soviet Communism 90 miles south of Miami has been an absolute disaster! Our weakness has cost the peoples of the USA, Mexico, Cuba and South America dearly! Both in terms of human life and treasure!

Perhaps someday a much more learned historian than I will write a book about that colossal mistake!

The people of Venezuela brought this on themselves, they can pull themselves out of it without American lives and dollars.

Let em rot! They created the situation. When it happens here, we will not be deterred from handling the situation “locally”.
