Imagine that same exact mindset from the point of view of Bolsonaro and his supporters.

That land is ours! If we burn it all down, there won't be anything left for them to "protect", and we'll be able to build whatever we want on it

That's not interventionist tho. The same point of view framed as an intervention would be to come to America and burn our forests down.

But that's not an intervention, rite? That would be an act of war. An intervention is supposed to be for the greater good of the collective, as in win-win.

This is just more left vs right stuff. This is why Jesus invented day drinking.

In a sane world, the CIA would have already faked some bullshit, and taken the guy out, let us all get on with paying our taxes in peace.
