The Venezuelan military is made up today of roughly 130,000 troops
their air force has 38 jet fighters, 10 attack helicopters, 86 other transport helicopters, 52 troop transport planes, i am not going to tell you about the 390 war tanks or the 600 armored vehicles, plus the 73 and 104 field artillery and rocket launchers, or the 4 frigates and other ships which makes up the sea forces. Venezuela has been seeking to take over 5/8 of our territory, for over 70 years, and the only thing standing between them and taking it is the international community especially America. I have written about this many times in the past when Brazil was begging us to be their partners to get their products to the Atlantic ocean from the land locked states of Roraima and Amozanas. it would have been a shrewd move to have them as out partners since as big as the Venezuelan militarily might is, Brazil is 13 times bigger, now with the loss of international alliances Guyana cannot stop Venezuela from taking what they want, including the oil which they have already said is theirs. Ten years ago I did commentaries on this and some may even remember them. Carl Greenidge is right, we cannot lose the support of the international community, so these power drunk, greedy, insane people here who want to put us all in danger like this, should be taken away and housed at the madhouse in Canje, where they cannot pose a threat to our national security.

Do that matter ? wanna bet I lived longer in Guyana than you.

I wouldn't doubt. Are you supportive to the people and country irrespective which political party is in government? For almost 30 years we have an  non for profit organization that contribute to my village, the seniors, the school , the community center and more. This is to benefit , as a matter of fact the majority of Blacks.

Of course I do ,need no accolades or have to show the world . The African Guyanese should take note ,it's never good to talk what's done for people.

Wait a minute ,is there a competition  ?

Venezuelan military is no threat to Guyana or anyone else. Most the arms are over 40 years old and poorly maintained. Almost all the F16 are down for lack of spare parts and only about 8 Sukhoi are flying. The tanks are out of fuel and rarely leave the barracks. The only functioning system are the Russian SAM controlled by Russian troops which are placed around Fuerte Tiuna Caracas and oil refineries of PZO, Paraguana etc.

It's the essence of not being Patriotic .

Tell that to the 15,844 GUYANESE  whose votes are invalidated by Lowenfield with barefaced backing from PNC Leader Granger. Since 1775 Samuel Johnson said "Patriotism is the last refuge of scoundrels."

Granger and his PNC are evil. Mahatma Gandhi said "non-cooperation with evil is a sacred duty."

You say that, "Granger and his PNC are evil." Likewise others can say, Jagdeo and his PPP/C are evil". 

What does invalidation of votes have to do with patriotism? 

Your quote of Samuel Johnson is out context.

In 1774, he printed The Patriot, a critique of what he viewed as false patriotism. On the evening of 7 April 1775, he made the famous statement, "Patriotism is the last refuge of the scoundrel."[8] This line was not, as is widely believed, about patriotism in general, but the false use of the term "patriotism" by William Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham (the patriot-minister) and his supporters. Johnson opposed "self-professed patriots" in general, but valued what he considered "true" self-professed patriotism.[9]
