US Poll Finds Americans Oppose Venezuelan Intervention, Experts Baffled
While The Hill notes 66% of Americans oppose sending troops to Venezuela, they somehow missed the decades of context that make this a no-brainer. From funding opposition figures to attempted coups and crippling sanctions, the US playbook for 'democracy promotion' in Latin America usually ends up creating the very chaos it claims to prevent. (Remember Chile in '73? Or Nicaragua in the '80s?) The
media frames this as a 'poll finding' instead of a public fatigue with endless, failed interventions. It's almost as if the Pentagon's budget relies on perpetually finding a new villain, regardless of what the public actually wants.
