As the Trump administration continues to bombard Iran, a top Pentagon official revealed that U.S. wars in the Western Hemisphere are also expanding, unveiling an effort dubbed “Operation Total Extermination.”
Attacks on Latin American drug cartels are “just the beginning” Joseph Humire, the acting assistant secretary of war for homeland defense and Americas security affairs, told members of the House Armed Services Committee last week.
Humire indicated that many more strikes in Latin America are on the horizon. The comments came a day after President Donald Trump again teased American annexation of Cuba. “I do believe I’ll be the honor of — having the honor of taking Cuba,” Trump said last week. “Whether I free it, take it, I think I can do anything I want with it.”
Humire announced that the Department of War supported “bilateral kinetic actions against cartel targets along the Colombia-Ecuador border” — Pentagon-speak for March 3 strikes on unnamed “Designated Terrorist Organizations” previously reported by The Intercept. “The joint effort, named ‘Operation Total Extermination,’ is the start of a military offensive by Ecuador against transnational criminal organizations with the support of the U.S.,” he said.

Nobody’s gonna be surprised when “Operation Final Solution” drops, are they? These absolute evil morons birthed straight out of the devil’s ass keep finding new lows for humanity until we stop them.
It looks like nobody is stepping up. Operation Hitler Did Nothing Wrong is going well.
It took a while for countries to step in in WWII. It may well be a bit longer for them to step in this time.
“I think I can do anything I want with it”
don’t those just sound like the words of someone who has raped people?
Trump said last week.
Well, the news attributed the words to a notorious child-raper and adjudicated sexual assaulter, so I’d say this is fairly conclusive.
Yeah but for some reason a lot of people need more proof… I like to point out when the rapey bile oozes out of it.
No disagreement. I was reinforcing the sentiment rather than disagreeing.
Oh for sure I get you, I was agreeing too and just musing on why I keep banging my head against this wall haha!
an effort dubbed “Operation Total Extermination.”
Thats the kind of name the evil government in the corny dystopian scifi movies gives to shit.
Somehow even more on-the-nose than “Final Solution”.
Do you want total military operation?
Operation Total Extermination? That name seems to strongly imply civilian casualties are a total non-consideration and may in fact be “bonus points.”
For a lot of right-wing Latin American governments, genocide of native peoples is icing on the cake when it comes to military operations.
