Looks like we're going to war with Venezuela. About time.
This is what I voted for.

Between Toronto winning the World Series and Venezuela being a country that we do not approve of....
perfect opportunities for testing our nuclear weapons like other countries do.

Plus, Toronto has two Venezuelan players—Santander and Gimenez. Giménez has gone 7-for-14 with RISP with 8 RBIs in the postseason. Once we make Canada our 53rd state, he'll be sent off to Uganda or Benin or some other s--thole country.

Let's nuke those 'effin Canadians NOW and keep the World Series in American hands.
Why haven't the gestapo thrown Jackson Churio into a concentration camp yet?
Are we sure he isn't the head of the cartel?

Close the border so LA can't go to Toronto and let the buffoon issue an executive order declaring the Dodgers as winners.

My
Gawd, you are
such a wet blanket! Nuking would be much more exciting and offer some great photo opportunities.
You guys are cracking jokes but my 5-point plan includes invading Venezuela and taking the oil. Whatever cost in American lives and loss of prestige throughout the world will be worth it
Maduro told the US they can have all the oil and minerals they want, just don't attack/invade.
So, it's clearly not about acquiring resources.
It's DEFINITELY not about expanding freedom or democracy or whatever.
The US props up dictators and bad regimes around the world.
So, it's clearly not about getting rid of bad guys.
Any amount of narcotics/drugs coming out of Venezuela is miniscule.
So, it's clearly not about narcotics or "narco terrorism."
So, what is this military action for?
Also, I thought Congress was needed to declare war?
Also, also, why are we illegaling murdering civilians in fishing boats hundreds of miles from our borders without evidence or due process?

it's worked so well before, especially in Central and South America.

I say that we emulate Israel and try to wipe out the women and children first. Especially the kids.

We've been doing war crimes for a month plus, so we have some leeway here
Substitute Jews for immigrants and Poland for Venezuela. Just the next page in the playbook.

Hey. Leave the radical comments to the professionals here on Scoop.
We should shift some of our focus to Boko Haram. They shoud have been introduced to extreme darkness during the Obama administration. I would take them out faster than Rico's sarcastic retorts.

Unless they control vast oil reserves it's none of our business.

Venezuela is obviously a much greater threat.
Who cares? We sold some soybeans, we're rich!
Venezuela is 95% plus Christian. We should exercise restraint to not indiscriminately kill women and children then.

They're fair game. War crimes are legal now

war crimes? Don't you know those guys on speed boats with a range of 3,000 miles on a single tank of gas are notorious fentanyl dealers from the well-known fentanyl source of Venezuela? That's no war crime, each fishing boat bombed saves eleventy bajillion American lives. Long Live Dear Leader!

Boko haram has been kidnapping and killing Nigerians for like 20+ years. Why now is Muggsy just upset about it?
Quote from: Shaka Shart on November 01, 2025, 07:26:12 PMBoko haram has been kidnapping and killing Nigerians for like 20+ years. Why now is Muggsy just upset about it?
1) Logic and rationality are "irrelevant" to Muggsy.
2) Muggsy has an insatiable need for constant attention. This is a guy who had record
13 consecutive posts in the MLB thread.
3) He saw something about it on the internet about it and wanted us to know what he would do if he was in charge, which he never, ever will be.
Never say never. Sadly.

This is the most maddening thing about him. Shoothoops had a consecutive posting streak in the tennis topic, but that was over the course of weeks, not a manic number of posts that don't really say anything in a couple of hours. It's a message board, not a chatroom.

It's become a cause on a certain "news" network.
Exact same reason a certain Fox and Friends superfan is suddenly interested in Nigeria.
