US Court to Hear 'Narcoterrorism' Case: Venezuelan Sovereignty Not Included
The piece highlights allegations against Maduro, along with legal experts questioning the legality of his 'abduction'. What's missing from this perfectly sanitised narrative? Perennial US interventionism. From the 1954 coup in Guatemala to the Contras in Nicaragua, 'narcoterrorism' has often been a convenient pretext for destabilizing governments that challenge US hegemony—especially those sitting
on vast oil reserves. The US Treasury Department previously placed a $15 million bounty on Maduro, a move that critics argue is less about justice and more about regime change. Instead of addressing the implications of the US unilaterally 'abducting' a sitting head of state—a blatant violation of international law—the conversation is steered towards the alleged crimes. It’s hard not to wonder:
when exactly did the US become the global arbiter of justice, competent to try leaders it has demonstrably sought to overthrow? One might call it 'jurisdictional exceptionalism.'
