Beyond this, if you are from Venezuela it's difficult to stay in the middle beyond the outcomes, it is completely different when prople talk without living or being an expat.

That's not how international geopolitics works. There are many means in which nation states pull levers to take on problems that exist in other countries. Sanctions, diplomacy, trade barriers, propaganda, military interventions, threats, etc. are all tools that are used by nation states around the world every day.

The US only exists due to the foreign intervention of France, and the at-the-time foreign intervention of a few Indian tribes, to help overthrow the crown regime. You might note the domestic efforts were also a dominating force, but I have no reason to believe anti-Maduro domestic efforts were not an instrumental force in making such a smooth operation possible for the US.

Iraq worked out quite ok after 20 years if my contacts there are to believed.

Afghanistan failed miserably.

You’re right. We should stop screwing around in foreign conflicts. Why are we spending money helping Ukraine? Who cares if Israel bombs Gaza? If Maduro wants to starve his people to death under a police state to emulate North Korea. Not my problem!

Isn't that good for the US? I mean at least it reads a lot better that totalitarian and terrorist regimes preinstalled.
