Question

Note from A Study Of Our Decline by Philip Atkinson
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Is it Assimilation or Invasion?
by: Phyllis Schlafly
November 28, 2001
Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, support for the United States has poured in from around the world, but the response from Mexico has been decidedly lukewarm. A Gallup poll reported that 78 percent of Mexicans oppose contributing troops to a multinational coalition, and we have seen no indication that Mexico will modify its oil policy of acting like a member of OPEC.

While there is no evidence that the 9/11 terrorists entered over the Mexican border, the trial in El Paso of an Iraqi smuggler produced evidence that he alone brought more than 1,000 Middle East illegals into the United States via that route, charging his clients $10,000 to $15,000 each. Border Patrol agents have confirmed the increase in illegal aliens coming from the Middle East across our southern border and the fact that Arabs pay up to $50,000 each for a "coyote" to smuggle them into the United States.

The 9/11 events have temporarily shelved the foolish proposals to grant amnesty to three million Mexicans illegally living in our country. Unfortunately, there is no indication that Mexico has retreated from its longtime goal of opening the U.S. border.

In Chicago on July 27, 1997, then Mexican President Ernesto Zedilla told the National Council of LaRaza, "I have proudly affirmed that the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders." He announced a Mexican constitutional amendment that purports to allow Mexicans to retain their Mexican nationality even though they become U.S. citizens (which is contrary to the U.S. naturalization oath).

When President Vicente Fox came to the United States this year, he reiterated this line, proclaiming that "the Mexican nation extends beyond the territory enclosed by its borders" and includes migrants living in the United States. He called for open borders and endorsed Mexico's new dual citizenship law.

Some Mexicans use the term "reconquista," which is Spanish for reconquest, to describe their desire to see California, New Mexico, Arizona and Texas acquired by Mexico and named the new country of Aztlan. They are teaching their youth that the United States "stole" those areas from Mexico and that they should be "returned."

The United States acquired the Southwest a century and a half ago in three ways: part by the 1845 annexation agreement with Texas, which was then an independent republic, part ceded by Mexico in the 1848 Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo after the Mexican-American War, and part by the 1852 Gadsden Purchase

Mexico's claim to the Southwest originated with the 1494 Treaty of Tordesillas, which drew an imaginary line on the map to divide the Western Hemisphere between Spain and Portugal. Because geography had so many unknowns at that time, Portugal got only Brazil (which is why Brazilians speak Portuguese).

Other countries never recognized this treaty, and Americans consider it ridiculous even to talk about giving the Southwest to Mexico. Most national borders all over the world have come about as the result of war.

Mexicans obviously have no thought of invading the Southwest with troops, so their hope is reconquista by migration, both legal and illegal. According to Mario Obledo, founder of the Mexican American Legal Defense & Education Fund, "California is going to be a Hispanic state and anyone who doesn't like it should leave."

An amnesty rally in the Los Angeles Sports Arena on June 10, 2000 attracted 25,000 people. In demanding amnesty for illegal Mexican aliens, the speakers proudly announced the names of at least a dozen unions in Los Angeles that are now headed by Mexicans.

Vicente Fox presented Mexico's Congress with a five-year development plan to eliminate the U.S.-Mexican border. He said he plans to serve "the 100 million Mexicans who now live in Mexico and the more than 18 million who live abroad," and to "strengthen our ability to protect and defend the rights of all Mexicans abroad."

Juan Hernandez, appointed by Fox as special liaison to Mexicans abroad, lobbies to get U.S. driver's licenses issued to illegal aliens and defends the Mexican government's issuance of desert survival kits to those sneaking across the border. On ABC's Nightline on June 7, he boasted: "We are betting that the Mexican-American population in the United States ... will think Mexico first."

Fox's five-year plan calls for building a larger consular presence in the United States, and this is already in operation. In U.S. areas with large Hispanic (including illegal) populations, the Mexican consul donates to the local public schools the same textbooks that are used in every elementary school in Mexico, grades 1 through 6.

The books, written in Spanish and including all academic subjects, teach that America "stole" the southwest from Mexico and that Mexico is entitled to take it back. The Mexican government considers these textbooks a symbol of Mexican national pride, guarantees a set to every Mexican child, and makes it a crime for anyone to sell them.

The only reason we learned about this Mexican plan is that one school in Santa Ana, California, decided to sell the books at a book fair and the local Hispanics kicked up a fuss about it. The school apologized to the Hispanics for selling the books, but should have apologized to the students for accepting the books in the first place.

The question we should ask our Mexican immigrant friends is, are you assimilating or invading?

Answer 1

Ok you have some good points. ANd while it may be true that they are large populations of Mexicans in CASC>FL>NY and other places?....They dont belong there & they dont belong in the southwest....They lost it, so they should get over it....If they wanna come to America, they should become legal, like the rest of us. Learn the ENGLISH language & speak it.

Answer 2

While it is true that there are some who feel that way, it would be close minded and idiotic to say that the majority are involved in this "plot". Assimilation of the immigrant masses is what makes this country great and the lack of it will surely be a key factor in the downfall of our great country. It is not just the Hispanic s you need to worry about, but all immigrant classes. Well al classes of people for that matter. As we move forward, the diversity that made America great is becoming more and more segregated. As new immigrants arrive they are accepted only in the neighborhood that are already populated by their ethnicity. This causes them to have no need to assimilate because why change if you don't have to. I believe it is the responsibility of the immigrant and the native country to make that connection. The immigrant should be willing to adjust and learn the local customs and language, while the native country should be able to accept that they will also bring with them some of their own customs and beliefs. This is the melting pot that made America so great. But if the immigrants are not willing to try to assimilate to the new environment then there is no reason to allow them to be here. We already have a segregated country. Why bring in more people that are not willing to help fix the problem?

Answer 3

It wasn't best Eisenhower, it was once the whole lot from McCarthyism to the Reagan Administration. The wealth of this nation prospers on worry (albeit, that wealth is retained via the highest tenth percentile). Capitalists say "commies are dangerous considering the fact that they are dangerous for OUR freedom." Americans have this fake feel of patriotism in which they believe "our" is relating to all Amercians, whilst it is relatively simply relating to the capitalist fats-cats who say this. Atheism was once (and nonetheless is, in a few respects) quite often regarded down upon via conventional American significance fans, so it is just normal for the ones with cash to hyperlink it to their possess political arch-enemy. Anything can be utilized as an opiate of the individuals, whether or not it is Christian or Atheist or Muslim or some thing. And, sure, Jesus is a Communist. Read the Bible and discover out for your self, even though I'm certain you already know. I'm a Catholic Anarcho-Communist. I learn Noam Chomsky. And, I are not able to wait to transport out of this nation... I relatively are not able to.

Answer 4

I believe that is a fair question to ask of any immigrant that decides to stay in this country.There were panics when the Irish came in droves, the Italians and many other ethniciites, I believe that each person immigrating to this country has the opportunity to not only enhance their life, but the country as well, if they are serious about obeying the laws and becoming a citizen. I believe that politicians have made it too easy to immigrate to the US and measures should be taken to tighten, not close, our borders.

Answer 5

Here is something you don't mention...THE TRUTH...

They are poor people who don't have much in the way of education trying to feed themselves and their families. They want what everyone in the world wants, a better life.

Now, you have the truth. Stop spreading all this crap just because you are prejudice and have to bash someone to feel good about your sorry self. Grow up. Get a life. Don't waste our time on Yahoo.
