“Guyana is about to lose 60% of its territory, and there is nothing we can do about it,” writes nationally-renowned attorney and legal analyst Marc Randazza. “But,” he warns, the situation “will certainly affect us.”
In a series of posts on X, he predicts that the United States will soon sit back and watch Venezuela invade and conquer neighboring Guyana.
Here’s his line of reasoning:
First, he points to the recent offshore oil discovery affecting the “entire western half” of Guyana.
Then, he observes that Venezuela already has strong ties to China, Russia, and Iran, while the United States is “rolling back sanctions” imposed by Trump.
Meanwhile, the United States has received nothing but empty promises of democratic elections from Venezuelan president Nicolás Maduro.
Additionally, the Venezuelan government argues that it owns 60 percent of Guyana, a country with “no military to speak of.”
Google Maps has already started redrawing borders, though Bing maps “does not seem to have gotten the regime memo.” (Randazza calls Google “a fully owned subsidiary of the US intelligence services.”)
However, the United States is “bogged down financially in Ukraine and Israel” and can’t afford another conflict. “Our military is anemic right now and in no way prepared to get involved in a jungle war in South America” for a country with no military, Randazza opines.
Based on these observations, he believes that major media will soon be reporting on an “indigenous movement” in Guyana — one that claims “that 60% of the country should be ‘independent.'”
He thinks Venezuela will back that movement and annex the region, while U.S. media convince “the American people that this is what they want, rather than this being a disastrous result of the United States’ loss of ability to project power even in its own back yard.”
