Comments here missing the obvious: Thousands of military personnel were involved in this action. Closer you get to seeing boots on the move, more obvious the mission.
Never served, but I’d guess military scuttlebutt is tighter than gossip in a megacorp, yet, thousands involved.
Say you’re working the carrier flight line, you know what’s launching, who’s boarding what aircraft and the sorts of work those boys do.
“Huh. Boss talking shit, close in on Caracas, fighters launched with bombs, more with air defense measures, all headed south. Ain’t that a thing? And here come two teams of badasses outfitted for night work packing handcuffs*, riding them blacked-out Black Hawks, even left room for passengers! Wonder what’s going on tonight? Cover me? Gotta hit the head. <furious typing to move funds and login to Polymarket>”
Obviously pulling that out my ass, but you get the idea.
Protos reporting on the bet indicates that this unknown person had been building a position since December. The list of people who knew so far in advance must be smaller.
