Yes, it's pretty obvious it's about Israel/Jews and not drugs.
Impact on the Venezuelan Jewish Community
The practical result of these tensions, combined with Venezuela’s broader economic collapse, has been the mass exodus of the country's Jewish population.
Drastic Decline: Since the rise of the Chavista movement (first under Chávez and continued by Maduro), the Jewish population in Venezuela has plummeted from approximately 20,000–25,000 in the 1990s to an estimated 3,000–5,000 today.
Insecurity: The community has faced specific security incidents, including raids on community centers and synagogues by security forces or armed pro-government gangs. While the government often denies direct involvement, these events have created a climate of fear.
Geopolitics: Maduro’s deepening alliances with Iran and groups like Hezbollah are a major source of anxiety for the local Jewish community, who fear these ties invite actors hostile to Jews into the country.

>How do fishing boats travel 4,000 miles from Venezuela to the USA without getting flipped by waves and where do they keep the 2,000 gallons / 8 tonnes (the equivalent of four Ford F-150s) of fuel needed for each one-way trip?
This is an interesting comment to leave in PDW posts about Venezuela drug-boats.
Right and Left have specific definitions in political theory. Left means that you want equality, right means that you think that equality is neither possible nor desirable. Therefore we are right wing, and the label is important.
Socialism can be left wing (if it tries to remove global inequalities) or right wing (if it is ingroup solidarity and tries to promote the best individuals while providing a safety net to the rest).
