The Venezuelan army executes the greatest defensive counterattack in the history of modern conflicts…
Not by firing a missile, but with a brilliant move that flipped the balance of deterrence: arming the entire population! In an unprecedented step, the army emptied its arsenals and distributed weapons to citizens, realizing that the fall of regular armies can be instantaneous with a missile strike or a targeted assassination. But when weapons are in the hands of over 28 million Venezuelans, any invasion turns into an endless nightmare. The plan is simple: If the army falls… the people start the war. Every neighborhood, every street, every alley becomes a trap for the occupier. Every house a trench. Every citizen a resistor. This plan, long advocated by many, redefines deterrence. Power no longer lies in a closed arsenal, but in the will of an armed people—unconquerable. Here’s the message: If you want to break the hegemony of invaders, arm the people… For the people alone are the last fortress, the weapon that doesn’t fall. Just imagine… If Iraq, at the moment of real threat, had emptied its arsenals and distributed them to the people, the American occupation would’ve been just a memory in military failure books. Every neighborhood and alley would’ve been a fire burning the invaders. But the opposite happened… The army kept all arsenals, as if they were an untouchable treasure, until American tanks arrived, took control without resistance, then dismantled and sold them as scrap! Meanwhile, the brave Iraqi resistance was searching for a single bullet to defend their dignity. This is how defeats are made: Not by lack of weapons, but by keeping them away from their rightful owners. The lesson remains: When the people are armed, they break the back of invaders. When they’re disarmed, nations collapse at the feet of betrayal.
