Seriously the important difference is that Maduro is the Venezuelan president. Abducting him like this is an attack on the government itself, on Venezuela as a country. Big difference between attacking part of the government and attacking its citizens.

I don’t know all that Obama did and the FISA courts were/are sketchy as hell, but one big difference in the “right way” to do this kind of thing is to coordinate with the foreign government and get their okay to enter the country and arrest their citizens. That’s simply not possible with a president, unless you’re intentionally supporting a coup. Which … this kinda is except there was no other group looking to take power.
