The VP is now acting president. Other than the president departing, what has changed?
Ah the US embassy is working with the VP and has warned about any continuation of the same will not be tolerated. They are helping with the transition from a radical Narco and terrorist dictatorship to a democratic one. So it takes time. But everyone should agree that this will be much better for all.
Growth from zero is still zero.
Are you kidding. Terror has increased. There has been two assassination attempts on a president, one murder or s conservative, death threats have skyrocked, violence on the streets. Drug imposts increasing, terrosist now infiltrating south American on the US doorstep.
The VP is acting president. Nothing significant has changed.
Then whats all the moral outrage. Anyone would think Hitler declared war on the world lol the way some are complaining.
mksd.
Your understanding of the political spectrum and US politics is not very good. No US administration has ever been "radically to the left" -- ever.
What is radical and to the left. So your saying the Dems have not become more radical. That the radical policies have not come to the center. I think its evidence in that we have seen assassinations and attempted assassinations of the opposition in taking them out and the narratives that fuel this in recent years. Is a sign of how radicalims has come into politics.
That is rather xenophobic.
Yeah thats the typical response from ideologues. Everything is turned into race. The idea of pointing out the obvious and how unregulated and illegal immigration has destroyed many nations.
You can call it whatever you like but most of these nations are now cracking down on immigration because they recognise this problem.
You are imagining terror again.
Theres no imagining. Its a reality and its this dismissal that has led to the problem getting worse. I just literally linked the evidence that terrorism is growing and being cultivated in some south American nations. This is their new tactic.
Since the tightening of security in western nations due to that same terror. Remember 9/11 and Bali and all the terror on subways, in nightclubs and shopping malls.
So the terrorist have been finding other ways which included infiltrating weak and dysfunctional and corrupt regimes like in Venezuela. So they can inflict their terror in other ways. Terror comes in many forms now including flooding the US with drugs and illegals.
So obviously any sane nation would tighten up their borders and security don't you think.
Well that doesn't match the US. Catholics were discriminated against for about a century and were never more than about 25% of the population.
Venezuela like other south American nations was a Spanish colony, part of the West's colonial sphere, later developing its own distinct path with significant European (Spanish/German) influence, They relate more to the west than socialist dictators and communism.
Thats all. They understand and appreciate the freedoms and democracy.
Secular government? I'd have to look into that regarding Latin America.
Are you really advocating that they continue a socialist dictatorship. Not have free and democratic elections. Not uphold Rule of Law seperations of power.
And were is that in Latin America? Is it one of those uniformly Catholic countries?
So what are you trying to say. Whats the alternative. Is not a free democratic nation like the US good.
Those "narcos" have never "terrorist" in the US.
How do you know. Do you have access to the intel. I have heard for some sources that there is a connection and why not.
What if anything would stop Narcos and Terrorist working togetting if theres no principles or morals and its all about destablising western nations who are percieved as the enermy.
Give an arguement why it should not be the case. Its logical and reasonable to believe it is the case. It does not have to be direct terror but funding such terror in its various forms.

Violent Islamism Reaches the Caribbean, Latin America
If you asked the average person which Western country, per capita, had the greatest number of citizens join ISIS, few would guess Trinidad and Tobago, the twin Caribbean island nation near the coast of Venezuela. Between 2013 and 2016, however, the government reported that 130 Trinidadians left...
