    There’s a Dutch possession, Bonaire, right off the coast of Venezuela.

    It’s only industry is tourism. I have to think that the Dutch don’t want any military operations going on in that area, and don’t want the US to blockade the island.

      “Boinaire will be handing over 50 million tourists, that will ‘agree’ to use some money in the US right before we prosecute and expel them to a random South-American dictatorship. This will cover the cost of managing the island indefinitely.”
