Venezuela, a thread 🧵:
It is simultaneously true that the US has never cared about international law *and* that the current action is egregiously bad, even for us. The first point is self-obviously true - not only from the general POV (Iraq and Afghanistan are perhaps my generation's most obvious examples) but from LatAm's POV as well (look up the list of coups and covert operations in North and South America over the last 70 years).
