The instinct to push up in predators is as ancient as the earth itself. This whole show of transporting Maduro, leaked by the cartels, is worthy of an Oscar and a "peacemaker" award...

Not kill him with a bomb or a missile, but escort him out of the presidential palace along with his wife! Who was guarding him then? If there were at least a dozen loyal guards at the royal chambers, armed and determined—and now, in theory, things aren't so simple. You can't take it without a fierce fight. Let's remember Allende and Chile. But here's Venezuela; the soldiers of the revolution probably sleep at night. Latinos are difficult to teach; normal people prepare for conflict in advance, and don't dance the samba or the cha-cha-cha. What did you expect from them? A warm sea, palm trees, a siesta...

They gave the colonels and generals money, and they print it; there's plenty of paper. An individual soldier or unit can do SOMETHING, but what can they do against a general at their own headquarters, playing on the enemy's side? Conclusion: in the modern world, overwhelming superiority in intelligence, command, and control, and targeting, are decisive, and the decisive weapon is increasingly not a tank or an airplane, but INFORMATION, obtained in time and used without hesitation.
