US military drones are on the hunt. In

00:03

early September, they found their prey,

00:05

a 12 m wooden boat drifting through the

00:08

Caribbean. Around these waters, such

00:11

boats are everywhere. Fishermen use

00:13

them, and so do smugglers. Normally, US

00:17

forces would intercept, board, and

00:19

search the vessel. But not this time.

00:22

The drone simply destroyed it. Over the

00:24

next 2 weeks, the pattern repeated. one

00:27

boat after another blown out of the

00:30

water. Donald Trump later announced that

00:33

the people on board were cartel

00:35

operatives and that the strikes were

00:37

part of a new offensive to choke off the

00:40

drug trade before it reached US shores.

please be [music] warned that we will

00:49

blow you out of existence. That's we

00:51

have no choice. By the end of the month,

00:53

the US had carried out at least 14

00:55

strikes against alleged drug vessels.

00:58

But there was a problem. The strikes

01:00

were happening in the wrong place. Most

01:03

cocaine production is centered in

01:05

Colombia, Peru, Bolivia, and Mexico. And

01:08

those shipments usually move overland or

01:11

across the Pacific, not through the

01:14

Caribbean. Then in October, the true

01:17

objective emerged. Trump had shifted

01:19

toward the Caribbean theater and

01:22

implicitly at Venezuela. The US sent its

01:25

most advanced aircraft carrier, green

01:28

lit CIA activity inside Venezuela's

01:31

borders and signaled that strikes on

01:33

land could follow. The drones hunting

01:36

smugglers have now found a bigger catch.

01:39

Their next target may fly the Venezuelan

01:42

flag. Today's video is sponsored by
