US Discovering 'Vietnam' Only When It’s Their Side Losing
RT's insight that a full-blown US invasion would struggle to 'establish control' over Venezuela (as if that's the benchmark for success) is remarkably astute for 2024. This isn't groundbreaking; it's the playbook the US has run—and often stumbled through—for decades across Latin America. From orchestrating coups in Chile (1973) and Guatemala (1954) to funding Contras in Nicaragua (1980s), the
'expert' appears to be rediscovering the wheel of US foreign policy failure, just without acknowledging the preceding cycles. One might wonder if the 'Vietnam' comparison applies to every sovereign nation the US destabilizes, or only when their own boots-on-the-ground project inevitably sours. The 'expert' fails to note the decades of sanctions and covert operations that often precede these grand
'invasion' scenarios. How many proxy wars does it take before we call it what it is: a repeating interventionist playbook, designed for maximum resource extraction, dressed up as a 'freedom mission'?
