Can you provide an example of a time when the us acted militarily in a 3rd world country to cause regime change that hadn’t resulted in dictatorship because I simply can’t think of a single time regime change like that has worked.

Dominican Republic, Panama, and Grenada were all successful military interventions in Latin America, and all are now democracies.

I’m majoring in IR in college, I know where Venezuela is. And I am not MAGA at all, I hate Trump’s anti-NATO and pro-Putin stances. I’m a center-right neoconservative.

Does that mean it’s a fake country?

Panama is not an island. But to reiterate, I don’t support a ground invasion. I support naval and air strikes to induce a military coup or popular uprising in the country, without deploying ground troops.

Those are all tiny islands man, you actually expect this to just happen in a country 2x the size of Iraq with airstrikes? We’re so cooked bro

A very valid concern. This is what really went wrong with Libya, and it’s relevant because that was airstrikes too. I do think the situation is different, but it’s a real possibility.

We are repeating a serious mistake, this time in our own backyard and not on the other side of the world

oh ok, so why weren’t the Dominican Republic and Panama already democracies before the intervention and do you think it has anything to do with the fact that the US previously propped up banana republics in those nations?
