Two weeks after new NSS promises focus on Western hemisphere, Trump bombs Nigeria

Bombing Nigeria on Christmas day in order to protect Christians probably won't end well for the Christians. There have been tensions between Christian and Muslim tribes for centuries. In essence, Trump is jumping into a Nigerian civil war. But maybe he doesn't realize Nigeria isn't part of the Western Hemisphere? Meanwhile, the showdown with Maduro continues. It must cost a bundle to keep the greatest armada in history idling in the Caribbean for months on end. And to what purpose? A land invasion? Shock and awe and a quick decapitation strike? Installing the recent Nobel Peace Prize winner in the presidential palace? Bringing back Random Guaido from his adjunct professorship in Florida to assume his rightful place as unelected leader of the nation? So many great options, but nothing's happening. Why? I don't want to rain on Trump's parade of retarded policy initiatives, but here's a thought. Why not scrap all sanctions on Venezuela, and prove to the Venezuelan people that America can actually be a force for good. Strike some legit nation-to-nation accords on letting American multinationals participate in the oil industry. Stop interfering in their politics. Why piss away billions in futile attempts to coherce Venezuela when you could be making billions playing nice? What a bunch of hubris-blinded zealots.
