Arranging a shoot-down of a Venezuelan war plane on the Colombian side of the border should be job one right now.

And I would agree with deploying stingers into the theater, under the strict control of some Puerto Rican Seals who can blend in among the paras and Colombian Army units.

Killing Vz choppers will be a deterrent in itself, and downing some jets will be an international embarrassment, even to the terminally unembarrassable Chavez. It may also cause his pilots and officers to consider their support for him. Of course, its possible that the pilots of these aircraft are Cuban, or some other third-country-national, but thats fine. We need to make their intervention sting.

Great idea.

Doing something about Chavez before this gets even worse would also be a great idea.

Oye, Marron. If you put a Puerto Rican in Colombia, he might need an interpreter.
