CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

What you need is a tiny minority living in Venezuela that you can claim you are protecting by conquering the country.
Works like a charm in the court of public opinion.

We should blast some Enya at Maduro's compound.

It is not a drug war that is for sure. Why? Because Venezuela is not the kingpin, it is more of a transit stop for drugs and a minor player compared to Mexico or Columbia. It is a cover story for getting regime change. Maduro is definitely a poor leader who also stole the election. I guess those are not good enough reasons? To me they are and I suppose I would support some military involvement as long as American leaders are not trying to game the nation with lucrative oil contracts and insider deals.

"Maduro is definitely a poor leader who also stole the election."
No, those are not good reasons for invading another country.
If those are good reasons by Republican standards, then someone should have invaded the US when Biden won.

You and I don't agree on much, but we do agree on this. Americans should stop buying drugs. We have far too many Americans hooked on them.
I'm also totally opposed to any land war to try and stop it. I have no issues hitting the boats. But launching a land war? No.

A land war in Venezuela is not about drugs. They're not producing any of the components in Venezuela, and we know it. The most that's happening is some transshipment at coastal facilities...not something you launch a land war to prevent.
A land war is about regime change and controlling the oil-power of Venezuela toward the US and away from BRICS.

I also think there's some personal pride issues for the President in saying he "won" a war. And he's got all this power at his fingertips. Would be a shame not to show his "strength" and flex it before his term is up.
