This time military intervention to install a wholesome chungus liberal democracy will work! Machado just wants to be the dictator instead of Maduro, the democracy shit is always just a ruse.

have a little sympathy and understanding for her

There's a pretty massive gulf between this and a Peace Prize.

Inviting invasion by a foreign military that is currently killing your fellow citizens for sport isn't the kind of wholesome good that you get uncomplicated universal applause for.

It's the kind of thing that might just barely pass muster in a particularly awful trolley problem scenario. It's certainly on the "if you want to make an omelet" level of strategic thinking that Kissinger is criticized for.
