The theory was they weren't suicidal, that's in doubt.

Maduro has to be more of a pest-like invading the Dutch Caribbean Islands, say, before we start pulling triggers. Now, mining the shipping channel into the oil terminal at Maricaibo and on the Mexican side at Vera Cruz, OTOH.... Different story.
Seems Venezuela with the US Navy doing some interceptions of its Ghost Fleet has decided, instead of angering America it is now going after its neighbor Guyana, claiming it is "trying to create a war front."

Do they want the Royal Navy also to visit their coast as i believe Guyana has some close relation with the UK.
Or France: Maduro's claimed French Guyana as well. There's a difference between "Crazy" and "Suicidal." The Mad Colonel in what was Tripoli happened to be both. Chavez, before he began pushing up daisies, was the same. Maduro knows if he touches French Guyana, it's Game on with the French, and he doesn't want to take on the U.S, Britain, and France at the same time.
