  • 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.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Tell that to the Venezuelans.
I'd love to tell them that they have not been freed, but are under new management, as the meme goes. But they'll realise it soon enough.

yeah, thats not how it works, you don't jut get to invade a country because you label someone something. Trump could then just label anyone a terrorist organization. Laws still matter to the rest of thew world even if the republicans no longer care.
I keep hearing about things that Trump can’t do…….after he does them

"Can't" in this context means isnt constitutionally permitted. I agree that we're past that.

I notice that some of the people on this thread state the sentiment that at least the current US administration is transparent with it's desire to plunder. I would note that there is a difference between being honest and being shameless. The USA is currently firmly in the latter camp.

Trump responds to concerns about long US stay, saying 'it won't cost us anything'

Trump was asked about the possibility that the U.S. "ends up administering Venezuela for years."
"Well, you know, it won't cost us anything, because the money coming out of the ground is very substantial," the president said.

So why aren’t we going after Iran, Russia and China?
We just went through a similar thing with Iran, gave them many warnings but they continued to develop their atomic bomb.

When do we go in and arrest the Ayatollah? When do we start our invasion of Russia to depose their evil leader?

Or do we only pick on the little guys who can’t fight back?

And it worked so well that there is now talk of attacking them again because they have rebuilt the destroyed stuff.

Little guy? Maduro has partnered with drug cartels and gangs that have infiltrated our country and murdered hundreds of thousands of Americans. Tren de Araqua is involved in human trafficking, kidnaps, extortion, torture, and other crimes. Instead of a president who enabled them, bringing human trafficking in our country to a level not seen since the Civil War, we have a president who thinks of the victims and is saving as many lives as he can.

He's thinking about the oil. Period. Blowing up those boats smuggling Columbian cocaine to Suriname was just a show put on for people like you.

I should have been clearer.

Little guys who don’t have nukes or a capable military to fight back.

All of those criminals captured just a show. Fine with me, let's have more.
