What’s this, a Patagonia commercial?
Why is a blindfold necessary at this stage of the operation?
Next level marketing–
We’re told a Delta team walked in, faced zero resistance, and somehow pulled off a clean grab, no casualties even though Maduro was supposedly armed to the teeth and wrapped in layers of protection. No chaos. No last stand. Ask yourself: does that sound like a daring raid… or a prearranged handoff? Has the real Maduro been sent out the back door to Brazil?
From Venezuelan sources, update: BREAKING: A large part of Nicolas Maduro’s security team was killed in the US commando raid that led to his abduction, says Venezuelan Defence Minister Vladimir Padrino.
Money changed hands. The very military tasked with protecting Maduro sold him out. That’s why the operators knew exactly where to go, when to go, and what they’d find when they got there.
Trump casually says, “We’re in control of Venezuela.” If this had been a genuine special operation, we wouldn’t be “in control” of anything. You don’t control a country by kidnapping one man. You control it when its security apparatus is already working for you.
This does not mean that counter resistance elements doesn’t still exist within Venezuela. That is entirely different from a head of state removal operation. It isn’t over until the fat lady sings.
