@Halliwell

You make comments without any factual proof. You will make a good painter with your broad brush.


Imagine calling your family & friends ‘unreliable’, and running to pay obeisance to the Orange Slob.

Let’s not romanticize what’s really going on here. Caribbean leaders defending Madero aren’t doing it out of solidarity or moral conviction; they’re doing it because cheap oil and gas buy silence. It’s transactional diplomacy dressed up as principle. Thousands of Venezuelans living in Trinidad and Tobago could tell you stories that shatter that illusion in seconds. They didn’t flee paradise; they fled failure.

And Kamla—she’s not mincing words. She said that if Venezuela invades Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago will support the United States. That's a shot across the bow, not diplomacy. She’s calling out the hypocrisy of those parroting “the Caribbean is an area of peace” while their own backyards rot with corruption, drugs, and murder. What peace are we talking about, exactly?

Kamla’s critics may brand her position as obsequious, but her supporters see defiance. The truth, as usual, sits somewhere in between: a mix of strategy, frustration, and the desire to look decisive in an era when no one else wants to take a stand.

TTs Opposition and many West Indians on this MB would rather back a Spanish version of "Papa Doc"Duvallier,Maduro as we know is no different from him,hundreds of his Army are running away together with ordinary people,many are in Prisons all over Venezuela for talking about the state Venezuela is presently experiencing,Maduro has set up an equvalent of the"Ton Ton Macoutes" of Haiti,any citizen talk and Mr.Maduro find out what yuh say,goodbye prison or even death, that is how bad this Dictator is..

Anything Maduro does is illegal he is not the true and legal President of Venezuela,it is not to long when he walks away or is taken out,Hopefully the PNM leader Madam Beckles can go with him.

Do we really want a Papa Doc next door.
