A failed attempt to       board an oil tanker this week... which clearly demonstrates the state of       American soldier training, as even Somali pirates manage to board ships with       minimal resources. Americans with planes, helicopters, and the world's largest       aircraft carrier allowed an oil tanker to escape.              But the danger to Venezuela isn't over yet.              Still, no one outside the White House knows why the war with Venezuela is       necessary.              The oil CEOs have already indicated that, as far as they're concerned, the       nationalization of their oil assets by the Venezuelan regime is not a reason       for war.              Venezuela is practically devoid of drugs, so that's also not a serious reason.              In short, why is the "president of peace" so eager for a war with Venezuela?       Is it to give the soldiers experience for the upcoming war against Canada and       Greenland?              Or is it necessary to create a foreign enemy, because the Trump regime is on       the verge of collapse?              Of all the reasons, fear of being overthrown seems to me the most likely       reason to start a war now. A foreign enemy is a welcome distraction from       whatever internal problems the US is experiencing under Trump.               .       --- SBBSecho 3.33-Linux        * Origin: Vertrauen - [vert/cvs/bbs].synchro.net (1:103/705)       SEEN-BY: 103/705 105/81 106/201 124/5016 128/187 129/14 305 153/757       SEEN-BY: 153/7715 154/10 30 110 203/0 218/700 221/0 226/30 227/114       SEEN-BY: 229/110 112 134 206 300 307 317 400 426 428 470 700 705 240/1120       SEEN-BY: 240/5832 263/1 266/512 280/464 5003 5006 291/111 292/854       SEEN-BY: 292/8125 301/1 310/31 320/219 322/757 341/66 234 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 423/120 460/58 256 1124 633/280 712/848 770/1 902/26       SEEN-BY: 5020/400 5054/30 5075/35       PATH: 103/705 280/464 460/58 229/426           |
