With Bolton, it’s a toss-up if he means the Monroe Doctrine, or some freaky End Times Dominionist bad acid-trip.

The Trump administration, tellingly, can’t tell the difference between an opposition leader and a con artist posing as an opposition leader. One has to wonder if we’ll have a third act of Juan Guaidó in a few months, or if they’ll find another front man for “Operation Freedom.”

It was a rhetorical question but yeah, once the violence failed to materialize

I found it informative to check when the wikipedia page for Guaidó was created: January 6 2019. He does have a political career gong back further, but he wasn’t exactly a notable character.

There were characters like this in Iraq and Afghanistan, weren’t there? Mostly famous for going to meetings at think tanks in the West while TPTB plotted “regime change” in their home countries?

And, in Chalabi’s case, making sure the “regime change” in Iraq benefited Iran most of all in the end. That’s how incompetent the neoCons were.

Some of these clowns (e.g. Bolton) go all the way back to the Nixon administration and the fantasy football about Vietnam back then. By this time we all know what a fake revolution looks like.
