Let's Start the Bolsonaro Presidency with a War

Breitbart tells us that Colombia wants Brazil to Venezuela:

On Tuesday, the Brazilian newspaper Folha de Sao Paulo published a report citing diplomatic sources within the Colombian government who said President Iván Duque would be willing to support an invasion led by incoming Brazilian president Jair Bolsonaro if he decided to do so.

The drums of war are beating in South America.

[Narrator: No, they aren't].

Ok, probably not.

But what else does one do about a once decent nation run into the ground by a mob of socialist kleptocrats now destabilizing the entire region.

If that's one's standard why not invade Detroit?

Brazil has a serious military, as does Colombia.

We're trying to think of another case where someone just up and invaded another country because the dictator pissed them off.

[Narrator: Really?]

History suggests 'humanitarian' invasions are a bad idea. Remember Somalia? Total assholes, according to PJ O'Rourke.

One of the more bizarre wars we've ever written about, in 1978 Uganda, backed by Libya, invaded Tanzania. Idi Amin and Colonel Khadafy... that's too much dictatorial personality for one war. After the Tanzanian army stopped the Ugandans they invaded Uganda and ousted Amin. So there's regime change for you. 

If your looking for a war in South America, we've always wondered why Chavez-Maduro didn't gin up some kind of controversy about the Dutch owned islands just off the Venezuelan coast and give us Falklands II.

The Dutch would kick their asses, though.
