Washington has expanded naval and intelligence operations near Venezuela
2025-10-28

Most people think it’s just about stopping drug trafficking, but there’s a lot more happening here.

Washington has expanded naval and intelligence operations near Venezuela, officially to disrupt cocaine and fentanyl routes. But beneath the surface, this operation targets something far bigger: the financial lifeline of global jihad.

For years, elements inside the Venezuelan regime have partnered with Hezbollah, Iran’s most dangerous proxy, to move narcotics, launder billions, and fund terrorism abroad.

So while America fights the drug crisis at home, it’s also cutting off the same money pipeline that fuels jihad in the Middle East.
