This refers to keeping the targeted state’s power structure in place but after some (at times significant) changes that advance the meddling state’s interests.
leave iran alone, don't bring your perverts in power there! any other option than the current one (khamenei or another moderate leader having the support of the armed institutions) has proven itself destructive and vicious: from the madness of homeini or ahmadinajad to the little brains of the wannabe turco-hunnic king that dreams to expand its empire over the arabs and all agents for a group or another. learn to gain from working with the countries, not from destroying them. and the whole middle east is a needed opportunity for europe who is removed from many other areas, so they need to work together in peace for this. even israel gained most from working with this type of iranian regime, that's why the deep state that would later create the gaza diversion would kill exactly those iranian officials who allowed this cooperation. that's why the one talking against iran was the romanian lapid, not netanyahu - like it would have said "you voted for whom you wanted but we, the deep state, deal with the big diversions with regional consequences - iran, the staged attack in october 7 and the huge wave of antisemitism that followed it etc.
mister darras, will your romanian colleagues stop my water or electricity? i passed through the others, but these two (and the internet for the little peace of mind that i still have) would mean a death sentence. we talk about divinity, geopolitics, natural law and philosophy, while the politics is made by cockroaches that kill you in your own house.
I had my own experience in 2005-06 with the corrupt, leftist, dishonest Caracas regime, which was frankly lazy-Latino, took bribes, did nothing to maintain oil production (which sank by 75%) and was anti-white as well.
I witnessed dealings with specifically the Venezuelan Embassy in Wash DC (a city where I lived for 18 years, and I was also in Marine Corps intelligence, and then became -- and remain -- a writer exposing the murders, warmongering, protected pedophilia, and blackmailing activities by the alphabet agencies of the American Deep State).
.
The Venezuela embassy in DC had a chance in December 2005- January 06 to grant political asylum to a white American dissident, Clarence Malcolm, who was helping the late but then prominent FBI whistleblower Ted Gunderson. (Gunderson, a once high FBI official, was known for his exposures way back in the 1980s of FBI protection of certain VIP pedophiles and for child sex trafficking. He was famously on a Geraldo Rivera talk show and confronted a practicing Satanist and pedophile who was a US Army officer, the infamous and wicked Michael Aquino.)
.
Venezuela's embassy did nothing for Clarence Malcolm when he was in justified fear for his life. (I literally SAW Malcolm being stalked and also followed in a car, just exactly as he had told me.)
The Chavistas strung him along for weeks. Meanwhile Malcolm was staying with me and my wife for four weeks in our tiny, no-privacy studio apartment.
The Chavistas could have and should have just said "No, we cannot help you" like a man instead of "Please come back next week."
Fact: Many leftists in Latin America (and not just in Mexico) are "racistas" themselves and just do not like ‘gringos,’ meaning they dislike fair-complected, fair-haired, blue-eyed people who look northern-European.
.
Every Latin American country has a DARK-WHITE economic elite (called "Blanquitos" in Spanish, as opposed to the "Blancos" -- the light-skilled Whites who look English, Irish, or Scandinavian).
This Blanquito elite, which looks Spanish-Italian-Mediterranean, in other words, Southern European (such as Maduro himself, who also is very tall), , is often hated by the Left which views them as the historic exploiters of the lower classes, which are largely composed of Indios, blacks, mestizos, mulattos, etc.
And the Blancos (AKA "Gringos" AKA "Yanquis" - like the blue-eyed, naturally fair-haired Trump) are hated even more (and sometimes with very good reason).
Another example: a white, blue-eyed European, a German with many skills, moved to Bolivia and wanted me and my late wife to join him there. (I am fluent in German.) But later he wrote:
"The presidente [Evo Morales, governed 2006-19] does not like white people. He knows I agree with him on Israel, Palestine, Wall Street, etc., and that I am a persecuted political refugee from Germany with skills his country needs, but he still sees me as a white man, and the white man is the enemy."
Then I stopped hearing from him and he died, sad and alone.
Latin America is just as divided by race just as is the USA -- and now Europe as well with its huge muslim migrant and Black-African minorities. Walk through downtown Paris or London and you will see angry and violent crowds of immigrants on the street glaring at you.
But the Left keeps repeating how "diversity is our strength." Where is this the case?
I have read many reports about it and watched the videos closely.
It's a phenomenal show that was put on.
Who does it serve?
Who is behind it?
I quote the cabal:
Venezuela's oil has already been acquired by the only ones who can efficiently extract it there under the current conditions – the Americans (plus stability, many billions of dollars, and an operating period of 3–5 years). JP Morgan, the largest US bank, already effectively owned Venezuela's most important assets (Dimon is in a bitter conflict with Trump). After Venezuela and PDVSA became insolvent, creditors demanded repayment of their debts and used shares in Citgo, the American oil refinery subsidiary (with 3 refineries, etc.), as collateral. Creditor lawsuits began in 2018/19, and in 2023, a court ruling initiated hearings on the sale of Citgo to pay off the debt. JP Morgan controls the company's debt and the sale entirely. Dalinar Energy was supposed to win the auction, but on August 28, 2025, Trump supporters reversed the decision in favor of Amber Energy (led by Paul Singer, a Trump donor), and on November 25, Amber Energy won the auction, even though it had bid $1.5 billion less.
Thus, another global elite party (the “Trumpists”) gained possession of Venezuela's natural resources, with the only remaining obstacle being Maduro, who was negotiating with JP Morgan.
The parallels to the capitulation of Syria/Assad (whom they successfully deposed) are obvious. However, it is still difficult to identify other parallels—to the supposed new “capitulation” of the Russian Federation and the power struggle among those who will ultimately benefit most from this “capitulation.”
If only they weren't mistaken...
In any case, it was an absolutely hilarious show.
Merz stood in front of a mirror and saw everything he attributed to Maduro as his own self.
It’s early to say, but it seems that the Venezuelan events are similar to the recent Bolivian experience: Morales was ousted and replaced by the vice president, who in turn holds elections in favor of right wing imperialist. Thus securing the lithium triad.
Great insight Andrew. It’s interesting that the US has outstanding bounties on some of those very people you mentioned.. Why weren’t they arrested as well? The new leader of Syria is a prime example of someone whom can have a bounty on their head only to be later welcomed into the Oval Office as a guest…🤷🏻♂️
There are rumors that it's the security service of Maduro which gave him to Delta Force and even shot russian soldiers who came running to protect him. It seem that the security chief has been executed.
If it's true, that mean there was also corrupted traitors among the chain command of Venezuela air defense.
I think it's way too early to be drawing the conclusion that the Venezuelan government is so infiltrated by compradors for the Empire that they will sell out the Bolivarian Revolution in the first place, or that the Venezuelan people would let them get away with it in the second.
If the Orinoco Tribune starts sounding like the Miami Herald, you will be proven correct. Until then, this is sheer speculation with evidence that looks like it was concocted in Langley.
And some Venezuelan air defenses DID fire back. At least one Chinook helicopter was hit, and there were injuries.
i noticed the same game in many occasions: people say loud what the moral option is, and the evil uses it for its own purposes and against the moral ground that make that desirable. changing maduro looks like the moral option (except maybe putting him to trial like an ordinary criminal and for ordinary crimes), and his succession by the vp delcy rodriguez also looks honorable, since she has a political dynamics and the defense minister, another political pillar, supports her; both look trustful and smart, ready to assemble a policy which would favor the country, latin america and the whole world. both are sophisticated, they can have a dialogue with both brics and the west, so they seem the ideal option. moreover, this regime makeup, that respects the popular options, would bring more friends to us than full, merciless confrontation - and other countries could go the same path without being forced too much. even trump's involvement of the oil industry is ok, since in this world of mega-criminals, they look more moderate. BUT IF YOU KNOW BETTER, DO BETTER. the right way which would be later deviated by evil is not a good option already, so the best thing is to define the objectives first and then do the right thing around them: it's necessary for the venezuelan people (by which i mean the poor, not the usual clients of oligarchic rallies) to be well represented and cared; it's necessary for the world, especially europe (and i include russia here) and other countries in danger like iran, to not be hurt by any of these options and for the future to allow a wide cooperation with the continent and, if need arises, even initiatives which require a lot of trust; and it's necessary for us that this move consolidates the healthier forces, not the deep state again. and apply this in direct and fundamental ways, stop caring for appearances: for example, the fact that sanchez and macron cried for maduro doesn't mean this coup was anti-european, it means exactly that it was justified. venezuela should be friendly with europe, including spain and france, but the two dudes don't represent their countries themselves; if such plotters were scared, it means this cooperation was either done among mafias and other subversive groups on both sides or that it was made against the interests of their countries.
Venezuela still have a President that is outside the country but that was not deposed. For this reason there no election needed. Delci Rodriguez is working in the absence of the current president.
Si lo único que se le ocurre es reducir 'chavismo' al 'deep state', no ha entendido Venezuela, no ha entendido lo que representa el bolivarianismo hoy en día en sudamérica. No pasarán.
The idea that Trump has any ideology at all is absurd.
I think: He, like most of the US is a hegemon believing god was John Wayne. He's wrong.
It's very true.
And I think that is what happened in Iran with the 12 days war.
It's seems that in Iran that didn't work perfectly and the adjustments are about to happen, now that oil is secured .
The tweaking regime was not enough, let's pass to regime change.
leave iran alone, don't bring your perverts in power there! any other option than the current one (khamenei or another moderate leader having the support of the armed institutions) has proven itself destructive and vicious: from the madness of homeini or ahmadinajad to the little brains of the wannabe turco-hunnic king that dreams to expand its empire over the arabs and all agents for a group or another. learn to gain from working with the countries, not from destroying them. and the whole middle east is a needed opportunity for europe who is removed from many other areas, so they need to work together in peace for this. even israel gained most from working with this type of iranian regime, that's why the deep state that would later create the gaza diversion would kill exactly those iranian officials who allowed this cooperation. that's why the one talking against iran was the romanian lapid, not netanyahu - like it would have said "you voted for whom you wanted but we, the deep state, deal with the big diversions with regional consequences - iran, the staged attack in october 7 and the huge wave of antisemitism that followed it etc.

Excuse me my friend, perhaps it's a problem of translation but I don't understand at all what you write.
WOW ... "now that oil is secured", you wrote.
That's a very bold statement on your part. What is your justification for it? Do you have a valid and verifiable source for it?

Sure tweaked all you Vatniks.
There will be no transition.

Venezuela soberana y libre! 🇻🇪
Yankis go home. De una vez por todas.
When does he get to Regime Twerking? (Waving his butt in everybody's face.)
How about you stop posting your zionist horse shit on Zerohedge?
Check yourself before the US wrecks yourself is the message.
Heard loud and clear.
The USA has not won a war in 75 years and is losing the proxy war in Ukraine. So a little poke at Venezuala makes me feel STRONG.
Don't forget they beat Granada outright, yeah!!!!!
