SPAL: that is obviously always been the case. Laws require enforcement to become real. The jungle has its "laws" too, but only develops at the rhythm of nature and evolution.
In the subject matter.. Maduro last year decided to "do as he pleased". Consequence is... others, if able and willing, will do the same.
Hope it ends well, but not sure. |

“This is the nature of war, whose stake is at once the game and the authority and the justification. Seen so, war is the truest form of divination. It is the testing of one's will and the will of another within that larger will which because it binds them is therefore forced to select. War is the ultimate game because war is at last a forcing of the unity of existence. War is god.”

| The US has a track record of bending or breaking international law without repercussions: extrajudicial drone killings in Yemen/Somalia (thousands dead, minimal fallout), the Iraq War (deemed illegal by UN Secretary-General Kofi Annan, yet no sanctions), and even recent Gaza aid vetoes. In each case, initial outrage faded into acceptance because challenging the US invites retaliation (e.g., economic pressure). These Caribbean strikes fit the pattern: framed as "national security" (anti-drugs), they exploit legal gray areas, and global fatigue with US exceptionalism ensures responses remain performative.In frank terms: International law is only as strong as the willingness of states to enforce it, and no one has the leverage or appetite to truly hold the US accountable here. If strikes escalate (e.g., to Venezuelan soil), we might see slightly sharper diplomacy or proxy aid, but still no game-changer—expect more words than deeds, with the US continuing unabated unless domestic politics (e.g., congressional pushback or public backlash) intervenes. |
