Example Sentences

"On Friday, President Donald Trump announced a third fatal U.S. strike on an alleged Venezuelan drug-smuggling boat. The operation, which killed what Trump called three “male narcoterrorists,” follows two U.S. strikes earlier this month also on alleged Venezuelan drug boats. […] Trump isn’t throwing out empty threats. The U.S. has eight warships based in the Caribbean—many off the coast of Venezuela—and 10 F-35 fighter jets stationed in Puerto Rico. And with draft legislation that would authorize Trump to wage war on anyone he deems a “narcoterrorist,” Washington may be on the cusp of a larger-scale militarization that looks ominously similar to former President George W. Bush’s global war on terror."
"US Secretary of War Pete Hegseth has said the aim of "Operation Southern Spear" was to eliminate "narcoterrorists"."
