U.S. Military Missiles Venezuelan "Drug Boat"
Is this just an escalation of the war on drugs or also a step to regime change? I break it down.
The U.S. military earlier today used a missile to hit a boat of alleged Tren de Aragua gang members accused of moving drugs in international waters and killed the eleven people on board. This follows the designation of Tren de Aragua as terrorists and a directive by President Donald J. Trump for the military to go after such “narco-terrorist” targets.
While it may not be the top story in the news, it’s a major development that takes us into new rough waters in the drug war but it could also be the build up to a further U.S. attack on Venezuela. I break it down in this video, question if it went down as Trump said it did, and look at where this leads.
If you prefer the pure audio here it is below.

I wouldn't trust the current US Fraudministration with a popgun, much less missiles. They will "allege" just about anything, to rationalize their lust for aggressive conduct in this hemisphere. Also, this was a cynical ploy to get speculation on Trump's declining health out of the news cycle.
The United States is following the "Wag the Dog" principle . WTD includes using military resources to distract the public and set the stage for escalation. Fifty years ago it was the Tonkin Gulf incident that prompted U.S. military involvement in Viet Nam. We are still trying to unravel hat event however, we know the results. Here we go again. Venezuela. This distracts us from other events in the world and gives the stage back to President Trump to feast on the incident. All the WTD elements are present. Gang? Eleven people? Drugs on vessel? The narrative becomes fact. The U.S. public is now more familiar with the situation in Venezuela. The next step of action will be supported because of the first. Whether it actually occurred or not.
