I wonder if any of those on board will be training the hit squads going after Rufusniks like Juan Guaido or will they be doing to the wet-work themselves?

Anyway...beware Russian's offering aid...

patentlymn:


Big mouths in the US govt/sate dept have threatened military action against VE.
So the VE govt invited in the Russians with their S300 AA missiles.
I think it is 100 troops.
I think everything the US govt touches turns to sh*t.
I think anything the US govt does in VE will end badly and we will own the mess.
We will get blamed for their own mistakes.
They voted in commies.
Look what we did in Libya.

Sorry, but "we" didn't do anything in Libya -- they - TWANLOC - did.

Alphabet Soup:
^ This!

Ok, we did not do anything in Libya, the US govt did.  The MSM is silent on the damage we did to Libya for no good reason. That is to protect Obama and Hillary.   The UK House of Commons wanted to know why Britain did the damage to Libya in 2011. They wrote a report in 2016.
There was no good reason.

I never thought I would conclude that Ghaddafi was a good guy or the US was a force for evil in Libya but now I do. Sue me.

Trivia: I read two books on the French conquest of Morocco and the Sahara. Military history. The author said that the new sultan was chosen based on a combination of military prowess and religious piety. It helped to be descended from Muslim holy men. If you were a little crazy that helped because it meant you were closer to God (Allah). I thought of Ghaddafi.
