Venezuela close to civil war...

Above you see the video of Venezuelan National Guard troops running over protesters in their armored vehicles.

I can't call it a civil war yet, but if it can't be far off.  Keep your eyes on this situation.  If you're American then this will/could become our problem in the blink of an eye.

Unfortunately our Pentagon is focused on Syria, Afghanistan (haven't written about it but the loss of 200 Afghan troops in a single attack indicates that we're losing that war....why do we alway pick the weak horse in these fights?), North Korea and Russia.  State is focused on the same.  The National Security bubbas seem to be old skool Neo-Cons so they can't see anything but Russia.

Meanwhile we have a rapidly developing crisis just south of us.
