It is about us, though. It's the criminal globalists against the people. Just because the wannabe tyrants haven't taken over our country yet doesn't mean we aren't a target.

narcissism.
It must be comforting to believe that the globalists aren't interested in doing the things they openly say they are.
I very much want to see them push through this. And I want the U.S. to avoid the same fate.
Lifting the sanctions was a poor decision. Instead of domestic production the U.S. chose to embolden a Marxist dictator. That is relevant information for voters to take into consideration.
sanctions don’t hurt the dictator. they hurt the people. The idea of sanctions is to starve the people of everything until they turn on the government. most comfortable Americans only understand sanctions as a word. Like “equity” or “patriot act”.
I worked in Iraq for a few years. have seen first hand the effect of sanctions. e.g. food for oil program. it was absolutely brutal for the Iraqi people. Don't think they hurt Sadam much at all.
Depends on the sanctions. General economic sanctions do hurt the people and are immoral. Ones that target the bad actors and their ability to access international benefits like university education for their children can work.
If the US didn't meddle in the affairs of other countries, they wouldn't suffer the way they do. Ever since the formation of OPEC by Venezuela, the 1973 oil embargo, and the rationalization of US oil assets, the US has sought to isolate Venezuela. The independent stance of the country threatened the US' petrodollar hegemony. We haven't sought peace, we've backed Venezuela into a corner. There's no direct evidence that CIA has operated inside Venezuela to destabilize it, but when you look at what the CIA has done to the rest of Central and South America, would it be a surprise to anyone?
