This is why civil liberty matters. Donald Trump is defiantly lying about the President of Colombia to justify military action. This is why we have due process. As soon as you remove civil liberty from accused drug dealers, they start falsely accusing political rivals of being drug dealers and once again we're faced with a tyrannical government. Exactly what they said they'd oppose.
The former president of the Philippines did something similar. He was a popular extremist that promised to tackle corruption in the government. He declared war on drug dealers and authorized civilians to shoot drug dealers dead.
Due process matters. Under those conditions someone could walk up to someone and say give me your wallet. No they reply. So they shoot them dead and take their wallet. Why did you shoot him the police ask? That was a drug dealer the person says. Oh, that's OK then. No it's not.
As I said at the time, what's to stop that president from shooting political rivals dead and falsely accusing them of being a drug dealer. Well that is exactly what Donald Trump is now doing.
Trump is falsely accusing the President of Colombia of being a drug dealer. Why is he doing that? Because that president is Trump's political rival. He dared to disagree with something Trump said. The same thing with Argentina.
Argentina are not big players in the drug trade. So why is Trump exclusively choosing to execute them? Because they are a political rival. They have Nationalized oil and that's a big problem for the American Corporate monopolies. As we have seen it was the CIA that have been actively involved in the Venezuela drug trade as they sought to destabilize that country in preparation for a regime change.
Here's the kicker. Donald Trump is falsely accusing the President of Colombia of doing something Donald Trump himself did. Case in point, Honduras.
In the election before last there were mass protests over obvious election fraud in Honduras. The locals hated the incumbent because he was indeed a drug dealer. His brother had already been convicted. He was also corrupt.
He'd replace drugs at the hospital with placebos and pocket the money himself. I kid you not. The people hated him. They started counting the votes and he was losing by a landslide. Then all of a sudden they stopped counting the votes. The military collected all the remaining ballots and counted those. Then all of a sudden the results magically flipped.
The people were protesting and Donald Trump ordered them to stop protesting. He told the opposing party he'd cut off all aid unless they forfeited the election.
Why? Because that drug dealing election fraud president pocketing the money from hospital drugs, placed a Honduran flag on the Wailing Wall in Jerusalem and announced they too would move their embassy to Jerusalem.
