Well, we don't have US Army infantry... but remember that former Green Beret captured in Venezuela in 2020 trying to perform a coup, who then said he was working for the CIA?

A clownish operation like that certainly seems like the CIA's modus operandi. They like their reputation as a very powerful and secretive operation, but also look at how many times they tried and failed to kill Castro, when a simple car bomb would have sufficed.
