Mexican Military on Standby in Response to Minutemen Newsmax Mexico's President Vicente Fox is preparing to respond militarily to a group of U.S volunteers who plan to patrol the U.S.-Mexican border starting tomorrow, positioning more than a thousand troops nearby, according to an Arizona TV station. "The Mexican military is on standby," reports NBC's Tucson affiliate KVOA. "One unit has about a thousand soldiers. They're located just across the border." Over the last week spokesmen for the border patrol volunteers, who dub themselves Minutemen, have said they will not attempt to detain Mexican illegals, but rather report them to the Border Patrol and track them till they're apprehended.

I wonder how many of the Mexican troops will desert and join the crowd heading north to the Land of Sugar & Honey.

Burning Mexico City to the ground might actually attract more tourists to the city! On second thought, why doesn't the Mexican military ARREST PEOPLE TRYING TO CROSS INTO AMERICA ILLEGALLY? |

On second thought, why doesn't the Mexican military ARREST PEOPLE TRYING TO CROSS INTO AMERICA ILLEGALLY? Because they know that those illegals are mostly made up of the people in their society they don't want around anyone. So instead of dealing with their own problems, they let them slip across the border so the US has to deal with them. |

I for one don't understand W's position on the illegal Mexican alients
and invisible borders. Mexico needs to fix the problem by incressiing the level of public education, and creating opportunities for their people to prosper in Mexico. Under current Mexican law, the state educates the general population through the 8th grade. Only the wealthy Mexican population can afford to send their children to high school and college. In the southern Mexican provinces, the level of education is even lower because the kids are forced to work at an younger age, and many are illiterate in their own language. It is these people who go north seeking migrant farm work.
We need to admend of process of citizenship reward. That is the one area I am not opposed to the US following European Law's lead!

Gentlemen,
We are discussing the trees and not the forest. Illegal aliens are not the only objects to move across our open borders - sex slaves, drugs, spies, and terrorists do so as well. Mexico is the hub of human and narco trafficking - and it is making a literal killing in profits.
But alas, Mexico is the third largest supplier of US oil. Any action against Mexico to rectify the situation must necessarily account for this obvious fact. How are we to close the borders or enforce our laws upon Mexicans entering our country without disrupting this precious supply? Indeed refusing illegal Mexicans by the millions would invariably result in counter-action by the Mexican government, perhaps even to the extent of another oil embargo upon our country.
Military action I tell you is the only recourse we have; to shut down the border and the illegal transport of people and goods, to secure our oil supply, and to spurn long-term development in Mexico - like Iraq - to encourage their people to stay home.
