I think the CIA has mastered killing people with drones. I'm not saying they are perfect.

We don't always get our man, but was always get a man(woman or child)

If they were doing it themselves, yeah. But in Central and South America, the CIA tends to operate through opposition groups of various sorts.

Pity they didn't pull it off. Venezuela would be far better off without him.

Honestly I can't tell. There's some video of a drone exploding in the air, but that could just as easily be the government to have an excuse for a crackdown on the opposition.

If it was a real attack, it was sorry.
