Obvious imperialist warmongering is obvious.
He’s sure to get the Nobel Peace Prize now!
Venezuela is a developing country, has the world’s largest known oil reserves, and has been one of the world’s leading exporters of oil.
Well that explains it
Didn’t they nationalized all oil fields and kicked out all western companies like 10 years ago?
Looks like the “western companies” found a warmongering president to take it back for them.
My aunties all live there. Are they all going to die in a hellfire attack?
No. They might get shot by occupation forces instead.
Given they are over 80 and blind I doubt that.
You have too much faith in occupying forces.
Not really. I know how brutal the US army can be, it’s just these are old people. Mostly housebound. I wonder if they will just burn.
How can one country declare another country’s airspace closed?
The Monroe Doctrine, everyone in South America knows about it. It’s the excuse to fuck around in everyone’s business in the western hemisphere since 1823.
SAMs
What? Do you really think the US would enforce that by shooting down civilian airliners?
Without a doubt. It would get Hegseth so hard.
Yep. When you have two aircraft carriers in their airspace, you make the laws.
These aren’t “laws”. They’re war crimes committed by a fascist regime.
Cause Trump is king of the world. Duh.
Time to embrace the French tradition of relieving monarchs of their head privileges
He can have it back right after.

Apparently a NOTAM was also issued, though. https://www.faa.gov/air_traffic/publications/us_restrictions/venezuela/KICZ-Advisory-NOTAM-A0012-25.pdf
That was issued 21 Nov. That’s not in response to today’s outburst.
Is “advised to exercise caution” language that means “closed”? Or is it as read by a layman
No no no, he DECLARED it! That’s as good as a law or something right?
It is now, or have you not been paying attention for the past 11 months?
To dictators it is. Thankfully most of us aren’t dictators.
I see the bad moon arising….
I see trouble on the way
