Thank you for finding and posting this.

This, I might add, would be a great addition to the Latin America forum.

There's been a good deal of back-and-forth on this there, as you might expect - including a few posters who are openly adopting the Cheeto line on this.

But the good people at Warthog are right: Whatever can be said about Maduro, an Iraq-style invasion would be both illegal and counterproductive - and would probably lead to unforeseen consequences as well (Murphy's Law).

Would be a great boon to defense contractors though - as Trump's new Defense Secretary knows oh so well.

Thanks again!
