DEBUG: President Trump's rhetoric_level peaked at "return seized assets" and "illegally took it".
INFO: Data stream from Maduro_Response.json indicates "outrageous threat" status. Expected behavior.
Diff on 'Energy Rights':
- "They took all of our energy rights. They took all of our oil not that long ago."
+ "And we want it back. They took it — they illegally took it."
WARN: Some sanctioned_tankers.status already updating to DIVERTED. System behaving as intended?
DEBUG: Core problem: ownership_dispute.oil_assets is still unresolved after years. This isn't a bug, it's a legacy feature.
3. Stacktrace (If This News Were Code)
Segmentation fault? Unexpected behavior? Panic!
Error: FATAL_ERROR: GeoPoliticalEngineException: Cannot re-acquire ownership of 'legacy_energy_assets.db' without 'force_protocol_override'.

Caused by: `OwnershipConflictException: Asset 'venezuela_oil' not found in U.S. inventory.`
Explanation: The system attempted to enforce a BLOCKADE without a clear, universally recognized legal OWNERSHIP flag on the disputed assets. This led to a runtime GeoPoliticalEngineException, requiring an aggressive force_protocol_override flag, which is usually discouraged in production environments. Classic dependency_hell in international relations.
