One thing is for certain, Venezuela will never know what hit them.

Except in the extremely unlikely event that Venezuela monitors public statements by the US President or picks up major news stories reported in all international media outlets.

I suppose people could go protest Qatar (or, more likely, Western support for Qatar) to try to pressure them to stop supporting Hamas, and it's somewhat fair to call out a lack of that.

If we're going to protest Qatar for sending money that Hamas takes a cut of, we also need to protest Norway, Jordan, the UN, et al for building hospitals and supplying food that Hamas takes a cut of.

The closest precedent of a solution that I can think of is the UN police mission to Haiti.  I.e. boots on the ground.  Disarm Hamas.  Prevent killing.

Flood the zone to take down the First Amendment.  Overwhelm the Courts and pressure the Supremes.  The Bannon playbook.

I tried Elite for a year. No Man's Sky is sorta similar but definitely more my vibe. It's still going strong 9 years after release, with new content continuously.
