    I am well aware of American interested here on their “backyard”, but starting a “civil war” between latinamerican countries isn’t how we’re going to defeat imperialism. You are also defending the annexation of 70 percent of a country. You are also forgetting that Venezuela doesn’t have nukes, and the US has zero reason to not get involved, with boots on the field if needed be. At the end of the day I’m not worried that Maduro will succeed, at all, but I still don’t support war for oil. If you like war so much, maybe ask Xi to start one with Japan and South Korea, prime examples of American imperialism in Asia.

      Military interventions are all needed to defeat imperialism , without strong military operation you can only become Gaza and indonesia of 1970s. Xi will do when its time for China to kick those ugly butts . XD btw I am defending Maduro and Venezuela . Are you from Brazil ?

        Yes, I am. I defend Venezuela when it comes to the bloody sanctions the Americans put on them, I defend that the US should stay the heck away from their oil (if you know the story of Hugo Chavez as president, that’s a prime example of America messing with another country to take their oil), but I don’t defend their own quest to take another country’s oil.

        The Arab world did try to free Palestine with strong military operations. But the Americans had the Zionists’ back and the rest is history.

          I don’t understand your point is , doing non violent activism is not marxism leninism. You got some wrong perspective in world history. Arab world did the right thing in defending the rights of Palestinians if you criticize their military action then you are not Marxist or socialists. We can say also something about Hamas action similarly , Hamas did the attacks and US backed Israel then rest is history. You cannot criticize the Arab world for defending their people which btw USSR also failed in 1948. No one in the 3rd world (I don’t know about Brazil) supported the creation of Israel in 1948.

          but I don’t defend their own quest to take another country’s oil.---- That’s like Lula talk about Ukraine war, Russia should have stayed put and pretend NATO is a goody goody force. You don’t support that’s your choice , not the world’s majority and certainly from the rest of the 3rd world. If Maduro goes on offensive , all support to him . Read the article I shared with you. Its a disputed land and Venezuela is protecting it from ExonMobil.

            My point is that they did try military action and it didn’t work out for them. What is happening in Gaza today isn’t consequence of them not fighting back, because they did fight. And they weren’t wrong for trying to defend Palestine against colonialism.

            Read the article I shared with you. Its a disputed land and Venezuela is protecting it from ExonMobil.

            No they’re not, they want to annex the whole fucking territory, and the idea that a country like Venezuela can “protect” another country by buying a war with the US is ridiculous, which is why it probably won’t happen. If there is any way to stop the Americans to get that oil, that one isn’t it.

              Fighting against colonialism thats what Arab states did by invading Israel lol. You don’t know history or you are very complacent to try to pin the fault of Israel and US on the Arab world. If you are shifting the blame on the Arab world you are no different from the US libs and wackies

              keep following and hinge on "Venezuelan imperialism " thats what Lula and Brazilian left is . And a country like “Venezuela” will definitely save the day not some Lula 2 siders who can’t even give a greenlight to a ceasefire UN resolution without condemning Hamas first.

              Well most of the western left is all about that. Promoting GTA 5 and dunking on fighting against US imperialism . Keep inventing another “Russian imperialism” trope in Brazil 😂
