Hahaha. Love to see it.
I'm writing a stageplay about Operation Gideon at the moment, another hilariously failed coup (the 2020 Venezuela 'bay of piglets')
If anyone's got information on other funny coups and stuff like that, or other shocking facts or covert operations, let me know.
My plan is to have Guaido, Rendon, and Goudreau (the orchestrators of Operation Gideon) discuss various coup tactics they could use, citing various things the West has done. Of course, from their perspective those coups were good, so they can speak the full truth of the atrocities to the audience.
The genre is a sort of surreal farce, so the more absurd the better.
I was just thinking about that incident a few days ago LMAO
