A chilling warning has been issued, suggesting an impending US military intervention in Venezuela.
In a recent TV interview, Congresswoman Maria Salazar, a prominent Republican and member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, made a bold statement. She declared that the US is 'about to go in' to Venezuela, aiming to remove dictator Nicolas Maduro from power. Salazar emphasized the necessity of this action for economic, security, and political reasons, stating, 'We need to do this for our future.'
Comparing the potential operation to the US invasion of Panama in 1989, Salazar said, 'This is going to be very similar.' That invasion, aimed at ousting dictator Manuel Noriega, resulted in significant loss of life and a swift five-week operation.
But here's where it gets controversial: Salazar described Maduro as the head of a terrorist organization, suggesting he could be targeted for removal under US law. 'We can take him out,' she said, adding that the US could either extradite him or 'go in' to end his regime.
Meanwhile, the Trump administration's newly renamed Department of War has announced an investigation into Democratic Senator Mark Kelly and five other Democrats, including former military officers and an intelligence analyst. This follows a video in which they urged the military to ignore illegal orders, prompting President Trump to accuse them of 'seditious behavior' and call for their execution.
