Yeah... this guy, and that other guy in the white house, they have their own reality. But wait, Obamas department of state said in 2015 "There were credible reports that Venezuela maintained a permissive environment that allowed for support of activities that benefited known terrorist groups". Also CNN, that media company that is best friends with the current US president, had an article(1) alleging that Venezuela was selling Venezuelan passports in the Middle East, amongst others to Hezbollah members.

What is mind blowing to me is the "reality" that given that, and all of the other stuff happening in Venezuela, Venezuelan passport holders can still enter the EU without a visa, just a valid return ticket.

Interesting. Are you a domain expert in this area? Did you do some research before posting?

From Wikipedia: "There are small but influential Muslim, Buddhist, and Jewish communities. The Muslim community of more than 100,000 is concentrated among persons of Lebanese and Syrian descent living in Nueva Esparta State, Punto Fijo and the Caracas area."

Is it hard to imagine a terrorist organization would expand it's operations into drug smuggling?

Fwiw, any vet will tell you the craziest firefights in Afghanistan were always when we went for the opium. Terrorism has been in bed with drug smuggling since the beginning.

The world isn't nearly as dangerous as you've been lead to believe. Not even like within an order of magnitude.

There's a lot of Lebanese immigrants in Venezuela. Do you think they're all members of Hezbollah?

Yes. That is what I was implying. Every single one.

Or I was providing context, showing that Hezbollah connections to Venezuela are not implausible in this particular reality

That is a horrible racist argument. to imply that it’s arguable that 3,4,5 generation muslims living in South America are terrorist just because they are.

A quick look at your comments says you are not thou. The statement is missguided

I get the sense that detecting sarcasm isn't your strong suit.

I realise the 1st paragraph is sarcastic, the original post and the 2nd paragraph is what I’m replying to
