For some reason Epoch times started sending me papers again. On the front headline they claim he brought peace to the middle east. Meanwhile there just was / is currently still an actual genocide going on. WTF.

Peace is when the people who annoy us don't exist anymore because we bombed them. Peak double speak.

Where do you think the very famous and well-known phrase came from, "Tyrannically rule with an iron fist of furious peace in the best of times is what you can do for your country."

Angelo Rivero Santos, a Latin American studies professor at Georgetown University and former diplomat in Venezuela’s embassy in Washington, said the Trump administration was reasserting the Monroe doctrine, devised in the 19th century and which saw the US claiming Latin America as its exclusive sphere of influence.

“It’s not only Venezuela,” he said. “When you look at their statements on the Panama canal, at the impositions of tariffs on Brazil, the latest spat with the Colombian government, not to mention the military presence in the Caribbean, you see a return of the Monroe doctrine.”

One aim, Santos argued, was to install more Trump-friendly governments in the region similar to those of Javier Milei, Argentina’s president; Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador; and Ecuador’s president, Daniel Noboa.
