But before I even get to how the rationale we're being given of stopping a supposed drug-lord president can't possibly be the real reason - because Trump just pardoned a convicted international drug trafficker and former Honduran president, Juan Orlando Hernandez, brought to justice in the U,S., convicted and sentenced in 2024 and z - let's talk about the ridiculous name of this ridiculous incursion ...
"Operation Absolute Resolve."
That is, of course, the lamest name for a military operation I have ever heard.
They are always melodramatic, sure - and though we've had some ridiculous ones before, most of them sound at least somewhat cool and mighty.
I mean ... "Hey Venezuela, Operation Absolute Resolve, coming at you" ... just doesn't cut it, does it?
It sounds like someone for whom English is a second language thought of a cool name in their native tongue that didn't exactly translate well into English? 😂
Or maybe even some American President with a limited vocabulary heard someone else use that phrase and borrowed it, not knowing it's true meaning. 😉😂
Like someone said "I am going to approach the issue of world hunger with absolute resolve" and Trump thought that sounded cool, not realizing it's typically used for situations in which we are trying to resolve internal socioeconomic problems, not things like, oh, I don't know, attacking countries under blatantly false pretenses!
I mean, you might as well call it "Operation Unwavering Steadfastness" or "Unflinching Perseverance!" 😂
That's not scary or mighty!
That's not even cool.
It's just ... lame.
Now - it amazes me that crazy conspiracy theorists who spend all day connecting dots that don't actually connect support Trump and completely ignore legitimate red flags for government coverups and BS rationalizations completely.
Like the now multitude of evidence we now have that Epstein and Trump were very close friends for a very long time and that Epstein himself said Trump at least knew of what he was really doing with young girls versus others who didn't.
Or I don't know, as mentioned above, claiming you're now attacking Venezuela, kidnapping its President, and going to "run" that country because of drug trafficking, despite the fact that you just pardoned a proven convicted Honduran President and drug trafficker, Juan Orlando Hernandez??!
But crazy conspiracy theorists are like "Nah, man, Trump and his government are completely transparent, nothing to see here, we trust him/government completely."
???
What do I think this is really about?
Well, so as not to go down that crazy conspiracy road myself and believe my own speculation is fact, I'll just go with I suspect this attack is about what it's always actually about with us - oil.
Oh, and there's that thing he does where he makes everything about politics and punishing/bullying anyone who doesn't agree with him - since Maduro is a left-wing dictator instead of a right-wing dictator, that is not okay - especially because he's standing in the way of the largest oil reserve in the Western Hemisphere!
Dear Crazy Conspiracists and Other Republicans,Hellloooo?I would think you'd be all over this, because this military action really IS clearly and blatantly based on a BS rationale - one that we can actually prove is BS - but it's a nothing burger to you?Allllrighty.Just go back to wearing tin foil hats and looking for aliens, then - or trying to prove innocent pizza places in D.C. are actually Democrat pedophile rings.
Continue to fall for Republican fear-mongering tactics without proof every time - AGAIN - just like you did with Bush's pre-emptive strike on Iraq over what we now know was non-existent WMD.
We tried to tell you there was no proof of that and it was all BS - that this was likely really over oil rights and personal vendetta with Saddam Hussein rather than actual WMD in Iraq or even Osama bin Laden, who was in Afghanistan the whole time - but you called us unpatriotic for doing so.
Later, you agreed with us, but are too stubborn to admit we agree on that now😂
In fact, Bush himself later said it wasn't true, blaming it on "bad intel" rather than abject lying. Because if many of us, the uninformed American public, knew there wasn't any proof, then he should have.
Meanwhile, we'll continue using our tax dollars and young people's lives to attack other countries who haven't attacked us, unsanctioned again - because you learned nothing from that are are still too easily manipulated/gullible.We'll just wait for you to catch up again, after you're done being easily distracted by shiny objects and manipulated by pseudo-Christians.
How long did that take for you to realize that, though, like 20 years?Guess we'll wait another 20.Or probably even longer, since you see Trump as some sort of Messiah.*Sigh* - God love ya, Republicans - sometimes ya just can't see the forest for the trees or that the smeller's the feller, can ya?
Love,
Your fellow American sister
(You know, the one you called crazy because she questioned the pre-emptive strike on Iraq without actual proof of WMD, then agreed with 20 years later, but won't admit it 😉 )
