Mass murder at sea just to satisfy Trump's bloviating narcissism

04 September 2025

A good example of a non-strategic pea brain in action?

The US Navy blew up a small boat and reportedly 11 people in it — in international waters and without due process — just on President Trump's distractions-aimed whim.

The following news blurb (from Reuters) includes a video of this flagrant violation of morality and law:

The U.S. military killed 11 people on Tuesday in a strike on a vessel from Venezuela allegedly carrying illegal narcotics, President Donald Trump said, in the first known operation since his administration's recent deployment of warships to the southern Caribbean.

"We just, over the last few minutes, literally shot out a boat, a drug-carrying boat, a lot of drugs in that boat," Trump told reporters at the White House.

"And there's more where that came from. We have a lot of drugs pouring into our country, coming in for a long time ... These came out of Venezuela."

He later shared a video on his Truth Social platform that appeared to show footage from overhead drones of a speedboat at sea exploding and then on fire.

"The strike resulted in 11 terrorists killed in action. No U.S. Forces were harmed in this strike," Trump said.

He added that the U.S. military had identified the crew as members of Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua, which the U.S. designated a terrorist group in February. He repeated allegations that Tren de Aragua is being controlled by Venezuela's President Nicolas Maduro, accusations that Caracas denies.

If you look at Reuters' included video of the attack . . .

. . . you will immediately notice that the boat was far too small — and much too distant from the United States — to pose an immediate 'narcoterrorist' threat to the US mainland.

Much less justify a millions of dollars naval excursion to Venezuela. An expensive foray evidently made solely to satisfy President Trump's wish to bury the Epstein files. As well as somewhat conceal Zionist America's Nazi-gone-wild genocide of Palestinians in Gaza.

The moral? — How do these 'exploits' Make America Great Again?

We have an American president so cluelessly imbecilic, that he posts a video of a tiny boat (and 11 lives) being blown up — without any due process of law — to exemplify Mighty America's purportedly iron grip on the world.

The only thing that sane people can conclude from this and former recent US presidencies, is that American moral authority has evaporated in the hell-fire created by our leadership's unrelenting torrent of evil.

As Caitlin Johnstone concluded a few days ago — here, in excerpts:

Western civilization is not worth saving.

[T]his civilization, as it actually exists, is an indefensible disaster.

The western way of life doesn’t need to be preserved, it needs to end. We cannot keep doing this. We cannot go on this way.

We cannot keep poisoning our planet, our minds, our hearts and our souls with the McGenocide ideology of the western empire.

We are headed somewhere dark, somewhere none of us want to go, and we need to turn around.

It is impossible to — ethically rationally — argue with Johnstone's observations.

We are in a Satanic place.
