The Guardian: Nicolás Maduro accuses White House of direct role in assassination attempt

Venezuelan president also claimed ‘ultra-right locos’ within Brazil’s incoming government were plotting to invade his country

Venezuela’s embattled president Nicolás Maduro has accused the White House of playing a direct role in an attempt to assassinate him and claimed “ultra-right locos” within Brazil’s incoming government were plotting to invade his country.

At a press conference in the presidential Miraflores palace in Caracas, Maduro said he had “no doubt” that the US government had ordered and authorized the botched strike against him last August with explosive-laden droves.

Maduro claimed the US hoped to install a rightwing dictatorship in Venezuela and accused the US media of waging an “incessant” media campaign against his government in order to justify a foreign military intervention in Venezuela.

No way. That drone was way too unsophisticated.. and the explosion WAY too small.. it looked like an amateur or false flag or double false flag operation (i.e. him pretending pretending ^^) Inception!

I'm thinking "false flag." American covert operatives don't have the competence to even be able to get in position to pull something like an attempted assaination of a leader this far from the US.

Why would we assassinate him and risk getting someone relatively competent to lead the rouge state?

The easiest way to assassinate Maduro is to put an all you can eat buffet in front of him.

Dear communist would gorge himself, while people were starving feet from him.

Walk like a communist...

People actually reason this way.

During the Siege of Khe Sanh, the North Vietnamese would snipe from a hill. Marines dutifully wiped him out.

In a day another sniper would show up. Rinse and repeat.

One day a sniper showed up who was really bad. He didn't hit anything. So it was decided to get rid of him lest the North Vietnamese replace him with a competent sniper.
