For those freaking out over the Venezuela “Invasion.” Some topical comparisons. Operation Uphold Democracy 1994 in Haiti. 25,000 U.S. troops involved. Venezuela is 33 times larger. I did the math for ya, that would require 825,000 troops. I hear that has gone swimmingly. Oops apologies for sarcasm.

Geez, I said, wondering why China is so incensed by the “invasion.” Apparently, they’re Venezuela’s largest creditor and purchaser of oil. Scooby says, “Ruh - roh!

Part 3 Oh ya, that lead to probably thousands of Panamanian deaths, homelessness and billions of infrastructure damage. Biggest differences between these and the current debacle, there was International support.

Part 2 Operation Just Cause 1989 in Panama. 27,000 ‘Murican troops. Panama is 1/10 the size of Venezuela. Perhaps an even closer comparison as it also involved kidnapping. Only about 15,000 American troops in the area, not the 270,000 they probably need.
