The Edge 2.0

Venezuela has been attacked by US Forces tonight, a short SEAD air campaign that wiped out the remaining Air Force assets, followed by a small scale ground assault via helicopter insertion, most likely with special forces, and communications with Venezuela are currently cut, at least in Maracaibo since we can’t reach my wife’s family (they’re in Maracaibo away from the main air strike targets).

Let me be clear with you guys: This is a GOOD THING, the Maduro regime has been responsible for the deaths of thousands of students and general civilians during the massive protests of 2014-2016, not to mention further repression after the large scale protests ended and gave way to smaller ones, plus all the deaths due to the horrific state of the healthcare system, and the general lack of food and medicine that plagued the country between 2017 and 2019, which only sort of got fixed after millions of Venezuelans left the country, finally allowing the few things left to actually be enough for the remaining population.

We don’t know what will happen next, we don’t even know if the heads of the Venezuelan government are all alive, although the regime seems to be standing FOR NOW.

So, let me ask for your prayers, not to stop the American government, but to ensure no needless civilian deaths take place while the Maduro regime finally collapses for good.

It’s been a long way coming!
