Whichever link you post, it still points to one thing: We're being lied to on the US/Mexico border issue, and stuff like that gets pushed under the rug where they hope nobody will find it. Then, the ugly truth wriggles free again and the 'honest, hard-working field hands' stereotype gets blown out of the water. A-gain....
Truth of the matter is, the US has more money than Mexico.
And, Mexico would like to have some of that money, please. NOW. Accordingly, there are few ethical barriers they, as a nation, are unwilling to cross to get that money. Period.
Why? Well, money is power, and Mexico would like to be Most Powerful! We can help them to be Most Powerful IN Mexico by physically defining the northern edge of their national territory.
With a fence. Call it a 'border fence'. Yeah. Kind of a catchy name...write Congress today, and tell em what a great idea you think it is to get that border fence finished! LOL

Mexico's position is that drug cartels are 'well known' to dress their people in Army uniforms and other official uniforms to discourage interference with their activities.
About two weeks ago I saw a local channel news 4 web page from a border city saying Border Patrol officers had been called by the National Guard who saw a group of armed men in Mexican Army uniforms crossing our border. Since the National Guard isn't armed, all they could do was to call the Border Patrol. I expected to see it picked up by National Press and run with as a lead story now that there were impeccable witnesses, but no. Even if it were drug cartel members, it seems to me that people would want to know about it.

Well, considering the WND is infamous for printing complete rubbish, or even makign stuff up, i doubt it happened. Or even if it did, it didnt happen in the way the paper says.
If you want clarity, read something of worth, not some Southern Hick Clap..i am surprised though, i didnt think most Texans could read..
wonders never cease, hey?

Too much to read this early in the morning, I would say if you want Mexico's position on the subject you posted....go to Mexico and ask. or email the Mexican embassy. All i know is that i need another cup of coffee.
