Absolutely.
One thing many people refuse to understand is that no matter how virtuous someone wants to be (peace, respect for international law, sovereignty, human rights, etc.), there are situations that can be solved only by means that may feel contrary to those principles or values. The hard reality is that you cannot expect to win a game when the opponent does not play by the rules.
Some people insist that a dictator must be deposed by their people, not by foreigners. However, when those trying to change things around have no weapons and the dictator is ruthless and has every man and woman in uniform at his disposal, things get a little complicated.
Venezuelans (civilians) have tried by any democratic means available for two decades and the only results have been: thousands in prisons, hundreds of thousands dead, and millions in exile.

Venezuela can be prosperous soon as long as there is a drastic political change. Those who caused all the problems (for us and for other countries) cannot be left in charge of solving them. They have not done it in 25+ years. On the contrary, they have multiplied those problems (domestically and internationaly).
