Categorically different. Venezuela is in our hemisphere and matters to us. + they have a lot of oil and hot women. Syria has very little oil and no hot women
Syria was about the logistics of oil. Venezuela is about raw supply since they have more oil in the ground than Saudi Arabia at the moment, so this might change the geopolitical atmosphere more than people realize. It doesn't help that Maduro is demanding a shibboleth of greed instead of taking an exile bargain and walking away with a billion plus (likely) dollars US. The US could command the oil supply of half the planet if we play our cards right.
