… For War Games. "Venezuelan President Maduro has accused Colombia of plotting his overthrow, while Bogota said Venezuela harbors and backs rogue rebel fighters. The US offered Colombia its "full support" against any attempted aggression. Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro deployed 150,000 troops to his country's border with Colombia as tensions continue to rise between the two countries. "The moment has come to defend our sovereignty and national peace by deploying our defense resources in full force," Maduro said on Twitter…" Main page link Amicalement Armand

That's going to cause a massive immigration problem for Columbia when they all defect… |

Hmmm, one drone with a smart bomb could end this whole thing. Shades of pre-WWII in South America. |

Politicians! Why are so many insane? I'm pretty sure insanity is required to want to be a politician in the first place. |

I'd be interested in knowing whether those troops are the regimes reliable one or its a convenient excuse for getting the unreliable ones well away from the capital? |

According to Wikipedia Venezuela only has 128K troops in the Army, so no doubt they are bringing in other branches for this. As it is, however, this would consist of almost their entire military. So I doubt it's just a way to get malcontents away from the capital… Venezuela has almost 200 T-72B1Vs, which is interesting. Colombia has no tanks AT ALL. Also seems to be pretty light on ATGMs. But that's from Wikipedia… Damon. |
