Meanwhile, we condemn Putler's unprecedented, full-scale invasion of the sovereign nation of Ukraine. The rules-based international order must stand up to this aggression.

The difference seems to be that US was much more efficient and they don't care about boots on the ground conquest like Russia does.

The US hasn't achieved anything so far except kidnap Maduro and his wife. Maduro isn't comparable to Gaddafi or Saddam. He wasn't an absolute dictator. Remains to be seen what's going to happen in the near future.

That was basically my point. This was not some war like Afghanistan, the goal was different and the method was much more efficient. I'm not defending the strike in any way but it is a different operation than what Putin did.

Not yet anyway. Probably just the precursor for the next war with Iran.

Either way Ukraine and Venezuela aren't really comparable. That stunt wasn't actually more efficient as Maduro wasn't actually defended. The entire Venezuelan military stood down. Seems like he was sold out so Trump could have a publicity stunt similar to how Iran was warned in advance of the bombing of Fordow and the US was warned before Iran shot back.

It's early yet to call this efficient. I think we could easily end up with boots on the ground if things go south.

That is the strange part of it all. The population does not seem to be rioting and even if they did what would they accomplish and against what/whom? Same with the military, what will they do? Go against the current president meaning the ex-VP?

It is scary in how stupidly simple it was to do.

Well, only ever fighting cowardly wars, against people who lack any meaningful capacity to fight back, has its benefits...

Can you believe that Putler tried to capture Zelensky in the first days of the war? Absolutely unheard of.
