The truth is, there was blood, stolen election results, and missing ballots. Following Donald Trump's electoral victory, Washington promised the indispensable military force against Caracas, a warning met by Maduro, Cabello, and Padrino, who emphasized that a foreign military boot on southern soil would mark the end of American imperial hegemony in the region. The verbal sparring escalated to a point of direct confrontation, and in recent months, a U.S. military deployment was launched into the southern Caribbean, while Caracas vowed to break the legs of anyone who dared set foot on Bolívar's land. (Trump-Maduro negotiations for a regime change for Washington had failed).By Roberto Rolando RodriguezThe quote from Sun Tzu: 'The best victory is to win without fighting'—that is, to distinguish between the wise man and the ignorant man. What is the United States seeking with the bombing of U.S. army barracks in Venezuela?The 'strongholds' of Nicolás Maduro's dictatorial regime were destroyed, and the literal response to the regime's speeches about dark clouds and instability among civilians on the streets of Venezuela, including the Latin American region, was nil. The regime's language for 26 years has been one of terror and fear. And if this threat is not resolved, a democratic government emerging from the polls under the leadership of Edmundo González Urrutia and María Corina Machado would be unable to focus on governing due to permanent conflicts caused by violent groups and Iranian cells. During the pre-election days leading up to July 2024, Maduro told the Venezuelan people that if he lost the elections, blood would run in the streets, and to top it off, he warned that he would win the elections 'by fair means or foul.' This means that the armed forces and the forces created by the Hugo Chávez dictatorship must be purged or dismantled completely, annihilated some and re-educate others through democratic means. The peaceful, secure, adequate, and sensible transition is already underway without fighting!The entry 'The best victory is to win without fighting' was first published in La Verdad Panamá.In the early hours of January 3, 2026, a force of 150 warplanes initiated a bombardment of Venezuelan military installations to introduce a special interdiction force by surprise and extract the dictator Nicolás Maduro, his wife, and others to take them to a court of justice in southern New York. The Venezuelan military defense was not activated and was completely annihilated. Since then, the regime and its military and political self-defense forces, both terrestrial, aerial, naval, fluvial, and integral defense weapon systems, have not been functioning, which allows Washington a superior position, through negotiation with the same actors, to dismantle or dismember the 26-year dictatorial regime of repression and reinstall, under the magnifying glass of the United States of America, a democratic and free system. When Donald Trump said that Washington could remain administering in Venezuela, it is possible, due to the unpredictability of the current American leader, he seeks to avoid an internal civil conflict that could unleash chaos. The operation was a success according to Washington. '…they may enter, but they will not leave,' was heard with a burlesque voice from Diabladó Cabello.
