Retired U.S. Army Col. Douglas Macgregor on Tuesday warned against military involvement in Venezuela, saying the U.S. has already created “enormous bad blood” in Latin America and caused "refugee flows."

"Whenever we go into these countries in Latin America, we create enormous bad blood and we create refugee flows,” Macgregor told Hill.TV’s Buck Sexton and Krystal Ball during an interview on “Rising.”

I'd rather take the advice of an experienced military man than that of the political hacks with a Right-wing agenda who are ruining this country.

Col. Macgregor may be proved a wise man if the US Government is daft enough to send in US regular forces. Most likely it is/will be a deniable and covert invasion of Venezuelan mutineers, Columbian mercenaries, perhaps some Columbian regulars and US Special Forces which will make up any invasion force. If the US sends in regular troops there could be anti-US armed uprisings in Venezuela, Bolivia and perhaps even Columbia.

Cheers.
