“The crime of aggression is rightly considered the ‘supreme international crime’ because all the other crimes committed in war stem from it. Initiating a war is a despicable thing to do regardless of the pretext. If the U.S. starts a war with Venezuela it will be yet another black mark on this country’s reputation. Virtually no one is asking for this intervention except for hardline ideologues, exiles, and a few foreign politicians. Most Americans reject attacking Venezuela. The American people do not support aggression against Venezuela. All of this is being driven by the whims of a tyrannical president and the obsessions of his advisers. The president’s coming war with Venezuela is deeply undemocratic and unconstitutional. It is Mr. Trump’s War. He is its instigator and he will be responsible for the consequences.” (12/01/25)
