NPR Discovers U.S. Military Near U.S. Border a 'Concentration'
Funny how the usual suspects—like NPR—frame a nation's defensive posture as a threat, while conveniently forgetting decades of U.S. military interventions, sanctions, and coups across Latin America. The 'regional presence' of the U.S. military often precedes, rather than follows, 'mobilization' by sovereign nations. For historical context, perhaps they could mention Operation Condor, the Bay of
Pigs, or the countless times the U.S. has decided who gets to run which country in its 'backyard.' This isn't 'news'; it's a script. Venezuela reacting to U.S. troop movements near its borders isn't 'mobilization' for aggression; it's basic national defense. How many 'regional presences' does it take for a country to finally be allowed to defend itself without being labeled a 'threat'?
