REBECCA GRANT: The strategic logic of Operation Absolute Resolve

Trump orders military operation to capture Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro in Operation Absolute Resolve, allegedly involving over 150 aircraft and special forces.

Nabbing illegitimate president Nicolas Maduro was another masterpiece orchestrated by Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Dan "Razin" Caine. Like the Operation Midnight Hammer’s strikes on Iran’s nuclear facilities last June, this operation involved over 150 aircraft and built on America’s complete air dominance. Caine credited the "years of experience hunting for terrorists." Intelligence agencies mapped every moment of Maduro’s routine – down to his pets.
"We watched, we waited, we prepared," Caine explained Saturday. U.S. ships and aircraft were poised on a trigger alert for days. Then, the weather broke, with coastal fog lifting just enough for "the most skilled aviators in the world" to fly in to get Maduro, as joint forces laid down a corridor of layered effects.
