“The U.S. may have decided it no longer wants to be the world’s policeman, but the military operation that captured Venezuela’s autocratic president shows it is far more willing now to be the enforcer in its own hemisphere,” the Wall Street Journal reports.

“President Trump’s audacious decision to seize Nicolás Maduro from his Caracas compound and whisk him off to a New York court to stand trial on drugs and weapons charges heralds a new geopolitical strategy: The U.S. and the U.S. only will dominate the Western Hemisphere.”
