If the reports we\u2019re getting are true, the Trump administration is reportedly getting close to launching another costly U.S. regime-change adventure in a foreign country. Costly for us, that is, but lucrative for the oligarchs.<\/p>\n

At a time when America has no shortage of deeply rooted problems that are in desperate need of attention, Trump continues to focus its eyes on gobbling up foreign resource wealth and settling old scores with foreign leaders he doesn\u2019t like.<\/p>\n

A Reuters poll released this week shows only 21 percent of Americans support the removal from power of Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro by the U.S. military. Just 29 percent support the attacks on alleged narco-terrorist speedboats in international waters.<\/p>\n

That doesn\u2019t mean Americans like Maduro or that they\u2019re against stopping drugs from coming into the country. It\u2019s more complicated than that. Please hang with me.<\/p>\n

Die-hard Trumpsters are quick to inform me that Venezuela won\u2019t be any problem. The government will fall within days or weeks of being pounded by the mighty U.S, military and this will amount to more of a police action than an actual military conflict.<\/p>\n

What this argument fails to consider is that while removing an unfriendly leader from Venezuela may be an easy mission, it\u2019s what comes next that will prove tricky and, possibly, intractable.<\/p>\n

Because once we do a regime change and install our puppet government, we now own that country\u2019s problems. All of them. It\u2019s now on us to fix it. And there\u2019s a good possibility, as Col. Douglas MacGregor and other military experts have pointed out, that Venezuela becomes a magnet or \u201ccause celeb\u201d for every Latin American with pent-up hatred for American imperialism. Guerilla fighters then flood into the country from Brazil, Columbia, Nicaragua, El Salvadore and throughout the region to join in the fight and help Venezuelans take their country back from the despised yankees.<\/p>\n

I hope this doesn\u2019t happen. I hope this amounts to a quick and easy mop-up mission and we end up with a friendly and thankful country of Venezuela, whose citizens are forever grateful for having been \u201cliberated\u201d by Uncle Sam. But history shows very few examples of this and many more in which the invaded country becomes a quagmire that\u2019s far less easy to pacify than it was to destabilize and overthrow.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to kick the neocons out of Washington and rebuild our Republic. They have just about destroyed it and Venezuela might be the final foreign experiment, the nail in the coffin.<\/p>\n

Just look at Vietnam, Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syria and all the other countries that the U.S. invaded with its military or destabilized with CIA interventions. Are any of them better off? How many Muslim refugees have been herded into America from these countries as a result of these foreign adventures?<\/p>\n

We have no reason to believe that if Trump decides to take the advice of his neocon foreign-policy advisors, which include Secretary of State Marco Rubio, that Venezuela will end up any different than the above list of failed experiments.<\/p>\n

But here\u2019s the rub. These experiments in foreign intervention are not seen as failures by the neocons. Most of them continue to get rich off of these wars that were never meant to be won, only to cause chaos and shift more wealth from the American middle class to the oligarchs, bankers and investor class. About 10 percent of the U.S. population benefits from America continuing to function as a permanent war state, while 90 percent lose out.<\/p>\n

And we wonder why our country has $1 trillion defense budgets, a $38 trillion national debt, and is on the receiving end of festering hatred around the world.<\/p>\n

The U.S. has no business deciding who runs other countries, especially not when we\u2019ve become so pathetically bad at running our own. After decades of playing global policeman, the U.S. has become an empty shell of its former self, hollowed out by globalist neocons who advance their own interests at the expense of American lives and American workers.<\/p>\n

President Trump should fire Marco Rubio and any other cabinet members who are advising him to invade Venezuela for the purpose of regime change and get on with solving the problems inside our own country.<\/p>\n

Another argument you will hear for why we need to send our military into Venezuela is because China has gained a foothold there and is taking over that country\u2019s vast resources.<\/p>\n

But that argument no longer holds weight. Yes, China has a presence in Venezuela, mostly economic in nature. But Venezuelan dictator Maduro has offered all of his country\u2019s natural resources to the United States, which President Trump even admitted earlier this week.
