A global corporation starting a resource war. This is the right hand of the US making a move, and the left hand pays no attention.
Of course, a majority of the American people will support this, and then will also support the invasion when Venezuela stops supplying us with crude oil.
I'm not sure anyone would support a war with Venezuela if they stopped sending us crude oil. I wouldn't support it, and I'm pretty hawkish politically. Does anyone here on TOD support war with Venezuela if they stopped exporting oil to us?
A few months ago, one of the talking heads on Fox News (employed by Fox full time) equated a decision by Venezuela to cutoff oil exports to the US to the use of a weapon of mass destruction against the US.
The ignorant blather that is spewed forth like so much bile from the mouths of those at Faux News is disgusting. It's a shame that there are some good shows on the Fox TV channel that I enjoy, however I do not watch them on the TV, but instead on my computer. I'd love to boycott Fox broadcasting in its entirity.
The Japanese undoubtedly went to war against the US because of the oil embargo. Why Did Japan Attack Us?
I guess history could repeat itself in unexpected ways. I mean, they ousted Chavez in a coup - why not try it again in a more direct way?
