    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Yeah, but Habanera Hasbara is a spicy propaganda with its own upbeat theme song. Something you can dance to.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    Habanera? It is South America. Vaguely US adjacent.

    The Donroe Doctrine

    I don’t know…perhaps what they’re doing already if that’s what they’re doing? Time permitting once supper is in the oven I’ll watch a little YouTube and see what’s shaking in the world.

    The Donroe Doctrine

    Anyway, western hemisphere, extended version. The United States says it has seized two tankers linked to Venezuelan oil exports in "back-to-back" operations in the North Atlantic and the Caribbean. http://apple.news/AS-ujAluETXCPotIFTDSDtQ US forces boarded the Russian-flagged Marinera after a...

    And through that, we didn’t enter World War IIl 30 years after World War II, like we entered World War II 30 years after World War I. Oh well.

    Venezuela? What’s up with that?

    I’ve heard, but haven’t had incentive to check that some of the crowd scenes are taken from outside of a soccer match. Weirdness.

    The Donroe Doctrine

    So… America didn’t invade them and abduct their president, and it hasn’t been shooting missiles at what’s probably drug dealers (though they presented absolutely no proof so far) that might have originated from Venezuela, and America isn’t blockading Venezuelan air & sea traffic then? America...

    Greenland

    If the militarily powerful in NATO can cannibalize (or threatened to) other NATO nations less militarily powerful in the same defence pact, then I would concur with your assessment of the situation. It had its 75-ish years, & I guess Putin doesn’t have to worry about Ukraine joining NATO at...

    The Donroe Doctrine

    The hard truth about “international law” is that it can be used to justify or condemn just about anything.

    Estimates for the Jewish population in Kyiv vary, but recent figures suggest around 40,000 to 45,000 (so maybe as much as 1.5% of that population), and there are approximately 100 Jews in Botswana. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy announced Monday that he appointed former finance...

    The Donroe Doctrine

    Donald Trump has ditched MAGA isolationism in favour of the Monroe Doctrine, a 200-year-old foreign-policy roadmap that claims American power and influence over the Western Hemisphere. There are 35 sovereign states in the Americas, most of which are entirely or mostly in the Western Hemisphere...

    The Tarriff Hype.
