 J'Accuse of Sunday, January 4, 2026, on the US aggression against Venezuela

Of course, there are good and bad invasions. Those carried out by the Americans and their allies are to be considered legitimate and defensive, as our Prime Minister declared, giving a hard kick to our Republican Constitution, which does not endorse aggressive military actions that are not in line with international law and respect for the sovereignty of member countries of the United Nations Community. However, we know well how empty and circumstantial such declarations are, considering the weight and authority of the countries making them. Our own country is colonized by the Americans, who willingly or unwillingly shape our national policies and its prime ministers, whether right-wing or left-wing. But what Giorgia Meloni is doing today has broken all records in terms of subservience and lack of a political identity, something she had done over the years, when the president herself was in opposition—her distinctive and innovative speech, I repeat, to all the political actors in government. It's clear that the halls of power in Palazzo Chigi have walls and windows that look not at the governed people but at channels and frequencies that have nothing to do with democracy and good governance. Let's return to Maduro! The poor man, it's said he was betrayed by one of his own who sold him to the Yankees. It always happens like this! They always get away with their arrogance and the forays they've accustomed us to in order to settle issues that concern their oil, strategic, and security interests. But when Americans talk about national security, you have to be careful, because it could stink, just like the fact that they're convinced Maduro is at the head of a drug trafficking organization! It's Hollywood-esque. But here, both the acting and the direction are precise, studied in every detail, in every image broadcast, and in every gesture, however mendacious and brazen it may be. Maduro is captured and shown handcuffed with his wife on a ship off the coast of Venezuela, and then disembarking from a plane at New York airport, surrounded by dozens of agents. The idiot has been caught with his treasure and his secrets. Trump reiterates on TV that the action is legitimate and that Senate approval wasn't needed for the operation, which he claims is a mere police operation to stop a drug trafficker. In short, everything has been said. Nothing is needed, because everything has been done and it was one of the most modern and sophisticated operations of the American special forces, called Delta. Trump adds that Venezuela is now American and its fate is in the hands of the White House, but in Caracas, the Vice President, newly sworn in after her appointment by the Constitutional Court, condemns the American intervention and calls for Maduro's release amid the outrage and confusion that characterizes the Central American country. What will remain of Madurismo? This is the question we are asking ourselves. Internationally, China and Russia condemn the aggression, but both know that the Delta special forces can intervene whether in Beijing or Moscow or elsewhere, and sooner or later it will be their turn and their interests. Inertia in the face of violations of international law benefits no one, least of all the Americans themselves, who now, after the aggression against Venezuela, can expect any similar and symmetrical action from Russia or Beijing or some other country determined to settle ongoing disputes with other countries with the same domineering logic. But in any case, there are actions and actions. The question of China's reclamation of Taiwan is more than legitimate, since that country was created by the Americans as an anti-Chinese measure, while Russia's annexation of Donbass and Crimea are facts that concern well-known geopolitical balances. The borders there are artificial and would never have been theaters of fratricidal wars if the Europeans and Americans had not plotted against those nations. That Tycoon Trump, today elevated by his supporters as a prophet or a king above the law, has decided to subject Central and South America to Yankee hegemony, as was already affirmed over a century ago by the Monroe Doctrine, speaks volumes about the White House's unclear and democratic hegemonic aims. What grips us at present is a feeling of anger and indignation, because we feel we are being taken for a ride by a criminal, servile, and incompetent world leadership. We will await developments with anxiety and passion. What we have witnessed is not the advent of freedom but the beginning of chaos.
