My feelings are hurt because you made fun of the place that I live. You’re a spatial bigot.
Military exercises for show and to “send a message” that we have no intention of backing up are dumb idea no matter where you live.
Yes. Very, Very dumb. Insanely dumb. 9/11 was not 'bullshit', and one of those decades was governed by an member of a democratically elected ethnic minority.
You never answered the question re: the existence of a nation unmarred by human cruelty, injustice and racism. I know it exists in your interior cubelife dreams, but where IRL?
1) [insert country] that doesn’t have special forces in 150 other countries
2) [insert country] that provides healthcare to their residents
3) [insert country] that doesnt have the highest incarceration rate in the world
4) [insert country] whose police don’t kill 1000 people a year
Blanking on a fifth.
What’s your ranking?
So we send military presence around Venezuela and then do what?
*300,000
Exactly. Obama took a stand, Asad called his bluff and we never committed the resources to definitively solve that problem. Don’t make a threat you can’t/won’t back up. This is one reason why military posturing in the Caribbean Sea off the Venezuelan coast is a bad first step.
Guilty.
This is why you should stick to birds.
How did horny crickets acquire the means to send troops to Venezuela from Cuba?

I’m sure Russia is meddling in Venezuela. I don’t think that requires that we do much of anything. We’ve consistently failed at the role of world police for decades when we’ve committed troops to a cause and Im not prepared to make the same investment for what could turn into another decades long war with no real outcome.
Grief. Did you read that article? The one guy who says crickets is a student and all he did was listen to a recording. The doctors who examined the foreign service personnel reported inner ear damage. Were the cuban crickets in China too? Because diplomats had the same damage there.
I think I'll probably go with the Docs at the UPenn Center for Brain Injury and Repair over you clowns.

The medical team that examined 21 affected diplomats from Cuba made no mention of microwaves in its detailed report published in JAMA in March. But Douglas H. Smith, the study’s lead author and director of the Center for Brain Injury and Repair at the University of Pennsylvania, said in a recent interview that microwaves were now considered a main suspect and that the team was increasingly sure the diplomats had suffered brain injury.
“Everybody was relatively skeptical at first,” he said, “and everyone now agrees there’s something there.”
