6 Major Warning Signs That Indicate That Military Strikes On Venezuela Could Be Imminent

Michael Snyder

They are getting all of their ducks in a row for a war with Venezuela.  Do you think that it is just a coincidence that Southern Command just canceled leave for Thanksgiving and Christmas?  And do you think that it is just a coincidence that the Trump administration just designated “Cartel de los Soles” as a foreign terrorist organization?  This is going to allow the Trump administration to take military action against Venezuela without formally declaring war.  As you will see below, so many of the things that we would expect to see just before a major military operation commences are happening right now.  The following are 6 major warning signs that indicate that military strikes on Venezuela could be imminent…

#1 Why would troops not be allowed to go home for the holidays unless something really big was about to happen?  The following comes from a Telegraph article entitled “Christmas cancelled for US troops surrounding Venezuela”…

US troops in the Caribbean have reportedly been told they may not be able to go home for Thanksgiving and Christmas as the White House ramps up its pressure campaign against Venezuela.

Southcom, the US combat command responsible for South and Central America, is restricting leave over the festive period in preparation for land strikes in the region, according to CNN.

The news came as Gen Dan Caine, America’s most senior military officer, was dispatched to the Caribbean on Monday. He is set to visit one of several navy warships sent to the region.

#2 The “Cartel de los Soles” has been officially designated as a foreign terrorist organization…

With talk of anti-Caracas US covert operations set to begin imminently, President Trump’s labelling of the so-called “Cartel de los Soles” as a foreign terrorist organization has become official, and taken effect Monday.

However, Venezuela has hit back, rejecting the label and going so far as to call the group, which translates to “Cartel of the Suns, as “non-existent”.

“Venezuela categorically, firmly, and absolutely rejects the new and ridiculous fabrication by the Secretary of the U.S. Department of State, Marco Rubio, which designates the non-existent Cartel de los Soles as a terrorist organization,” said Venezuelan Foreign Minister Yvan Gil on his Telegram account. Caracas is dismissing it as an ‘absurd’ lie.

#3 The FAA has issued a NOTAM that covers all of Venezuelan airspace until February 19th…

The FAA on Friday issued a security notam warning U.S. civil aviation operators of “potentially hazardous” conditions in the Maiquetia Flight Information Region (SVZM FIR), citing a worsening security environment and increased Venezuelan military activity. The notam is effective through Feb. 19, 2026.

Per the notam, the FAA also now requires U.S. operators to “provide at least 72-hour advance notice of planned flights to the FAA at faawatch@faa.gov with specific flight details.” It also directs crews to report any observed security issues to the agency’s Washington, D.C.-based operations center.

#4 If a major military operation was imminent, we would expect airlines to cancel flights, and that is precisely what is occurring…
