I am in favor of leaders fighting each other directly instead of sending millions of their citizens to die in their stead.
I can only hope there's a plan for what happens in Venezuela now. But I'm certain that as long as it isn't a protracted war with millions dead, it is better for everyone than what's going on in Ukraine.
This sounds fine, except it is not what happened here. I would give Maduro better odds than Trump in a 1:1.
The problem with having leaders fight eachother is you get a situation like feudal europe where all your leaders are soldiers whose chief qualifications are skill in combat and extracting resources from their subjects to keep them combat ready.
You really want to stop unnecessary wars, make the leaders dig the latrines for any forces they want to send off to fight.
