Brazil will not allow U.S. use its territory to invade Venezuela - vice president

[Perseus]

22. The military leadership is very corrupt, and some of it is from Cuba

I believe the corrupt officials who have been sucking on oil money, and other income that should have gone to the Venezuelans will fly away with their families. I understand that Diosdado Cabello's family is already in Russia, some others have already moved to the USA, if you go to Doral in Miami, or Weston, FL you will find many of them there along with "ex-officials" from the regime who are living in huge mansions in the country they called the "imperial enemy", "capitalist pigs" and any name you can think of, but always came to buy $8,000.00 gold iPhones and other things.

There are a lot of those in Miami with very expensive property in the Brickell complexes, and other upper class areas, living like kings with stolen money.

Because of the above I don't see "massacre of civilians" happening, this would be a country that would truly welcome the USA and its coalition as liberators. The massacre has already been done by the regime and the Cubans, and its still going. It is hard to believe the atrocities the regime has carried on in Venezuela. Students who dared to protest are still being tortured, many killed after being tortured, young women students raped, anything horrible that you can think of has and continues to happen in Venezuela.

For those who think that a dialog must be the first recourse do not understand that many dialogs have been tried with zero results, the regime lies and will not give up their power, the last chance for Venezuela is a military intervention, nothing else will do it. Forget about the suspicion of the oil, the Venezuelan oil industry is in shambles, the regime is incompetent and has destroyed a great part of it, they don't know how to run it, and all they do is pocket the money that comes in and that money never goes back to better the country. I wish people would stop rejecting the possibility of an intervention, the negative effects of not doing so will be felt throughout the World when Putin takes over, and that is what makes me so suspicious about the threats from the orange buffoon and Pence, but nothing happens...are they following orders from Putin for him to take over?
