In Ukraine there was atleast a historic link to Crimea, an ethnic Russian population and Russian-speaking population as well as RISK politics.

This intervention is supposed to based on the USA operating in the goodness of it's heart because of humanitarian need. If the US just gets oil deals that's just a bonus. As well as  stopping migration, drugs, Socialist authoritarianism and Russian/Chinese influence apparently. 

Who does the USA have as friends in this endeavor? Bolsnaro and Colombia the country with the worst record of human rights abuses in the Western Hemisphere.

Like that's ever stopped them. These are the people who happily joined forces with the Taliban when they were torching Commies in Northern Afghanistan.

QuoteWASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Venezuelan opposition leader Juan Guaido has formally requested the support of US military forces in the ongoing political and humanitarian crisis in the South American country, a letter published by his representative Carlos Vecchio said on Monday.

A new Cold War, the US invading South American countries to topple 'dictators'...I'm half expecting to hear about a Human League reunion and the return of puffball skirts, leg warmers and deely boppers to our cities' streets.

Now *that* would be a crime against humanity...
