Mexican president declines Trump’s offer of US troops to help fight drug cartels [More]
She’s right, but for the wrong reasons. If she allowed it, her corrupt government would cease to allow her.
I’m against it for the same reason I’ve consistently been against wars that our representatives have not declared– as required by the Constitution.
Surely, someone has factored in the likelihood of a sufficient percentage of the tens of millions embedded throughout the Republic becoming even more radicalized and adopting assymetric warfare tactics, e.g., “terrorism” wherever unhardened targets present themselves, that is, practically everywhere. Can we see the projections?
If the decision IS war, then anything other than real war will be a betrayal of those we order to put their bodies and their lives on the line on our behalf. And in this case, it would be impossible to “just” target cartels without also going after their stooges at all levels of the Mexican government.
