We said the same thing about Ukraine back in the day

Ukraine didn't require a massive amphibious operation, neither did Iraq for that matter, we can't compare apples and the equivalent of a prickly cactus, the geography of Venezuela is a deathtrap for ground forces coming in from the coast, without the Colombian border route open, the US has no chance of a viable ground based assault

Ukraine didn't require a massive amphibious operation.

And despite how easy it would be for Russia to turn Ukraine into Iraq, NATO still decided to use it for its geopolitical schemes. And I think the people in power now are even more deranged. I could see them launch a failed invasion - Pete Hegseth would probably love talking about boots on ground
