  1. 8 million Venezuelans vs the U.S. military… sounds less like a war and more like the world’s worst lottery.

  3. he isnt actually getting 8 million people to go to war for him. the only people that will go to war for him are cuban mercenaries and colombian guerrilla.

  4. “There is indeed a mobilization effort, the realistic number of combat-ready militia members is far lower than 8 million, and such figures should be understood more as political messaging than accurate military capability”

  5. Let’s go usa , I don’t like maduro he’s a dictator criminal and he released criminals from prison

  6. I’ll raise an army of millions to fight a country separated by an ocean. With this army I have no real navy, or any means to transport my army to fight them. Meh…

  8. I don’t like maduro or the shit he’s done but are we going to be upset over another country responding to the US killing 11 of its citizens? I understand the claim is they’re drug smugglers but do we have the right to summarily execute foreign nationals for drug crimes? If he didn’t respond to the posturing and active attack on civilians I think the media would crucify him at home. It’s just posturing on both sides. This timeline has a sex offender president of the US vs the drug cartel supporting president of Venezuela. I’d take a drug smuggler over a pedo any day of the week

  9. America invading an oil rich nation… I think I’ve seen this one before.

  11. To the Venezuelans, once Maduro arms you rise up my brothers and overthrow him.

  15. Maybe they should review the footage from the recent Iranian conflict. Although it was mostly Israeli attacks with US support Iran is way stronger than Venezuela.

  16. It’s worth pointing out that whatever our feelings on the dictator of Venezuela are Trump is still very clearly purposely trying to provoke a war so he can justify authoritarian policies at home

    Only today we had a statement from the US Department for War, yes worth remembering that the US has just moved to call the DoD the DoW, that appears to imply the US is now calling the Venezuelan military a “Drug cartel” (And thus terrorists per the US designation)

  17. Half of them like the US while the other half want a lot of money if they fight.

  18. He didnt even get that many votes in the last election. The only votes he got were from public employees forced to vote for him, and those wont fight for him.

  20. I know this is hypothetically stupid for the Venezuelans, but you could’ve said the same about the Viet Cong. As an American, I have zero motivation to go to war with Venezuela. I get the feeling most Americans feel the same

  21. I have zero doubt that the U.S. could easily dispatch this regime… and then we would spend years propping up some puppet regime that is utterly incapable of standing on its own without massive U.S. financial and military support. We would spend years bleeding out fighting an insurgency, get tired of it and give up and pull out.

  22. What the fuck is the US doing there in the first place? Get the fuck out and use your military to help Ukraine instead of stealing oil

  23. So it looks like Maduro is willing play along with this farce, with the goal of spiking oil prices for Putin. Otherwise, that Venezuela is suddenly this flash point makes no sense.

  25. We need to rally 8 million Americans to fight the US.

  27. “Some of you may die, but that is a sacrifice I am willing to make”.

  28. There’s 0 reason for the US to go to war with Venezuela. Epstein files distraction doesn’t count as a good reason for war.

  29. I hope China or Russia gets involved in this to deter the pedo king of America on taking the oil of Venezuela.

  33. probably many venezuelans would fight alongside the US against Maduro…………………

  34. Remember when Kamala Harris would have started World War 3?

    *phew* so glad we dodged that one.

  35. seeking help from people buried under his decade long oppression. great leadership

  36. He couldn’t even get 3 million to vote for him, this guys is delusional.

  37. America will turn Venezuela into a parking lot. It’s like a yorkie going up against a mastiff

  38. Maduro will paint himself as a Bolivar and further entrench his power. Great job guys!

  39. Hell yes, Iraq 2.0 so we can hide the looming recession and Epstein files.

  40. Lol I’m not fighting them,
    They have some of the most gorgeous women ever.
    I’ma slap the shit outta Maduro if he come over here but nah, no fight

  42. An unnecessary and stupid war that we can all see coming.

    And there isn’t a damn thing any of us can do. He won. I fear there are no Vasily Arkhipovs in the Navy, especially amongst the star chasing captains. They saw what happened to Captain Crozier. Rank is more important to them than their duty to the country.

    Hegseth has fired all the officers who are loyal to the constitution. They will have their war. And my friends and I will die for their ambition, nothing changes.

  43. Trump is such a gift to guys like Maduro.

    How do you say “Rally ‘round the flag” in Spanish?

  44. Largest oil reserves in the world ladies and gentlemen

  45. Somehow I doubt that 8 million Venezuelans are nationalistic and Maduro-loving enough to fight for him
