Life is good? Your feeling about the goodness of life depends on if a powerful country captures the leader of another country?
Whatever you think of the morality and ethics of the man, the precedent, the outcome, the extrajudicial action is opening the door for less law and order in the world.
This sets a precedent that the US is back to regime change and world policing, and that went swimmingly in the past as we all know.
Are you under the impression that Maduro is a fairly and lawfully elected leader? Because he absolutely is not.
That's true. But a similar case could be made for many other world leaders, they just don't happen to be sitting on top of a lot of oil and/or are able to credibly defend themselves. This was never about Maduro or democracy.
A murderer dictator was brought down. We shall celebrate, yes.
