Americans desperately need NATO ships to travel to US to prevent Trump from destroying Venezuela. Trump “advisors” huddle with war profiteers at CSIS to plan US taxpayer funded bombing of Venezuela, note it will cause massive increase in homeless refugees on payroll of US taxpayers-AntiWar, Grayzone

Your tax dollars at work: In Feb. 2015 Obama ordered assassination of Venezuela Pres. Maduro.…In April 2002, US ‘gave the nod’ to coup of Venezuelan Pres. ChavezElliott Abrams was “crucial figure” in 2002 attempt.

4/14/19, Trump Advisors Mull Attacking Venezuela," AntiWar.com, Jason Ditz 

“Top-level meetings focus on options for US invasion” 

"On Wednesday [4/10], the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) hosted an “off-the-record” event during which a number of President Trump’s highest ranking advisers discussed the possibility of a US military attack on Venezuela. 

This included a number of State Department and National Security Council officials, along with officials dispatched from Colombian and Brazilian embassies. Representatives of US-backed Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido also took part. 

Details of what was discussed have not been disclosed, above and beyond the general possibility of the US attacking Venezuela, and the different options for ways the US could attack them going forward. 

That the Trump Administration is considering attacking Venezuela as an option is no secret, as they tell reporters that much at seemingly every opportunity. That they are holding such events to discuss the details, however, suggest a US war may be closer than anyone realizes.”

4/13/19, US Military Attack on Venezuela Mulled by Top Trump Advisors and Latin American Officials at Private DC Meeting,” The Grayzone, Max Blumenthal 

“Away from the public eye, the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) think tank hosted a top-level, off-the-record meeting to explore US military options against Venezuela.” 

“(The complete list of attendees for the private CSIS event on US military options against Venezuela appears at the bottom of this article.)” 

“David Smolansky, OAS coordinator for Venezuelan migrants: Once a leader of Guaido’s US-backed Popular Will party, Smolansky took sanctuary in Washington and began working for regime change in 2017. Following the US recognition of Guaido as “interim president,” Smolansky was appointed by OAS President Luis Almagro as coordinator for Venezuelan migrants. While it is unknown what advice Smolansky offered at CSIS regarding a military assault on his country, there is a near-consensus in Washington that an attack would massively exacerbate the migration crisis. A war on Venezuela “would be prolonged, it would be ugly, there would be massive casualties, Rebecca Chavez, a fellow at the Inter-American Dialogue, declared in testimony before the House Foreign Affairs Committee in March. (Chavez’s boss, Michael Shifter, was a participant in the CSIS meeting on use of force).”
