Why does this guy think he is still relevant?????
Where does the $55 billion go? A lot goes to the Mexican police and politicians.
Who was he talking to? And why come to our land if everythings’ so horrible? Go back to Mexico, where you say all is tan muy bueno.
Oh shut up, Vicente, you creep. These countries are filthy rich w/ US tax dollars WRT "the drug war." Read on.
The federales are scared stiff that President Trump is gonna curtail their US-taxpayer financed lavish lifestyles and fat offshore holdings.
Ever hear of the MERIDA INITIATIVE? I didn/t think so.
WIKI-With the Merida Initiative set to expire on September 30, 2010, the U.S. State Department (under SoS Hillary) has proposed a major renewal and expansion of the program. If approved, starting in 2011, $310 million would be granted to Mexico, another $100 million for the Central American Regional Security Initiative (CARSI), and $79 million for the Caribbean Basin Security Initiative (CBSI).[28]
The U.S. Congress has now authorized $1.6 billion for the three-year initiative (2007â2010). The U.S. Congress approved $465 million in the first year, which includes $400 million for Mexico and $65 million for Central America, the Dominican Republic, and Haiti. For the second year, Congress approved $300 million for Mexico and $110 million for Central America, the Dominican Republic and Haiti. A FY09 supplemental appropriation is providing an additional $420 million for Mexico; and $450 million for Mexico and $100 million for Central America has been requested for FY10.[20]
Only about $204 million of that, however, will be earmarked for the Mexican military for the purchase of eight used transport helicopters and two small surveillance aircraft. No weapons are included in the plan.[21][22][23] The bill requires that $73.5 million of the $400 million for Mexico must be used for judicial reform, institution-building, human rights and rule-of-law issues.
The bill specifies that 15% of the funds will be dependent on Mexico making headway in four areas relating to human-rights issues, and on which the U.S. Secretary of State will have to report periodically to Congress.[24][25]
An additional $65 million was granted for the Central American countries (Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama); the House also included Haiti and the Dominican Republic in this bill for Central America, which is a comprehensive public security package that seeks to tackle citizen insecurity in Central America by more effectively addressing criminal gangs, improving information sharing between countries, modernizing and professionalizing the police forces, expanding maritime interdiction capabilities, and reforming the judicial sector in order to restore and strengthen citizens confidence in those institutions.[26]
Much of the funding will never leave the United States. It will go toward the purchase of aircraft, surveillance software, and other goods and services produced by U.S. private defense contractors.
While this request includes equipment and training, it does not involve any cash transfers or money to be provided directly to the Government of Mexico or its private contractors.
According to U.S. State Department officials, 59% of the proposed assistance will go to civil agencies responsible for law enforcement, and 41% to operational costs for the Mexican Army and Mexican Navy. While the initial cost for equipment and hardware that the military required is high, it is expected that future budget requests will focus increasingly on training and assistance to civil agencies.
As of November 2009, the U.S. has delivered about $214 million of the pledged $1.6 billion.[27]
============================================
Ut oh---Obama/s now requesting couple billion....to curb the Central America drug trade into the US.
Well, after all the Community Organizer in Chief and his equally racist former Attorney General have a lot to answer for concerning Fast and Furious. Watergate looks like a minor transgression in comparison to that.
Is Fox running for the President of Azlan or sumpthin ?
I don’t think there is any doubt this nation has a lust for drugs and our current CIC has done nothing but encourage that lust.
However, there is very little that goes on in that shithole down south that isn’t the fault of the corrupt Mexican leadership!
Blaming us for his trouble won’t fix anything. Even if not a single American did drugs, that wouldn’t curtail the corruption that has been a part of that nations culture going back to the 19th century.
Trump should look into reviving the Constitutional provision for Letters of Marque and Reprisal.
Fox is right to blame the US for drug war violence, as it’s our drug war.
The destabilization of Mexico with drug cartels is only one of many bad consequences of this policy.
When did this bandido get reelected?
Vincente Fox wetting himself
It took obozo's addition of the muzzies to the mix to assemble - FINALLY a critical mass of our fellow citizens to begin what I PRAY is a movement to put a halt to our GLOBALIST OLIGARCH PLANNED national/cultural suicide!
In ABSTRACT terms, this is the conspiratorial view of whats going on vis-à-vis the INVASION of the illegals here:
The current alien invasion from the south serves BOTH the elites who run Mexico and many of the OTHER states of Central and South America -- and the political ruling class who increasingly run the United States:
· It takes pressure off the 60 or so families who control approximately 80% of the wealth in Mexico. Without the northern safety valve (the United States) for their poor, those poor MIGHT be inclined to do what Americas early colonists found it necessary to do: Revolt! Parenthetically, that would be MY suggestion for them: Instead of fleeing here and converting here to a larger, more poverty infested version of there, they ought to stay there and make there into their version of here, whatever that would be. Revolutions ARE messy and there are no guarantees thatTREACHERY they will produce the desired result. But according to one T. Jefferson they are often necessary. Never forget that THIS country was born in revolution!
· For the NAFTA/CAFTA coveting US national ruling class especially those who, in varying degrees, quest after some sort of One-World utopia run by guess who? it provides yet another level of insecurity and tension among the indigenous populace which can be used to justify new and more draconian limits to freedom here. Instead of securing the borders, allow millions of illegals to come in and when the natives become alarmed, require a national ID card. Your papers, please! will soon become a phrase familiar to all. Its Mr. Franklins trade of freedom for (false) security. Its also the time-tested Hegelian Dialectic the One-Worlders have successfully worked like a rented mule.
While they occasionally squabble among themselves, the elites of history have ALL had one thing in common: They will do ANYTHING to remain in charge. And throughout that history, except for the 230 year-old experiment in freedom called America, most of the men who have walked the earth have lived as slaves to these elites whether they call themselves kings, emperors, potentates, sultans, czars or presidents.
Get ready, folks. Unless some SERIOUS changes are made and the handful of Americans who CARE about liberty get involved, that history will almost certainly repeat here.
Now for the SPECIFICS of the matter:
My take on Bush's role in all of this is:
1. His long and apparently positive experience with the large hispanic population in Texas is largely responsible for his inaction on this alien invasion. And why wouldn't HIS experience with them be positive as he traveled in the highest, best-educated circles among them, not the Hispanic gangbangers and pine-straw spreaders...
2. His brother Jeb is married to a native of Mexico and his nieces and nephews are mixed blood. And before you scream "ethnocentric bigot" at me, there's nothing inherently wrong with that. But that fact -- and the first item -- DOES predispose him to a warm and fuzzy feeling for folks from south of the Rio Grande.
And if -- in some strange and metastasizing American desire for a new royal family dynasty -- Jeb should win the White House, I'd bet that HIS activities toward this alien invasion will make W's behavior look like a warm-up exercise.
Any vestige of white European culture in America will be a distant memory.
So build a wall and problem solved, correct? A wall would slow up the flow of drugs.
(Run-on sentence warning)
Like the Japanese ambassador criticizing Trump—Japan has a `no immigration’ policy—here we have a `Castilian’ (like Mexican billionaire Carlos Slim), both standing behind an official Mexican govt. policy: documented by pamphlets printed by the Mexican govt. showing their colonists how to sneak across the border, then how to claim welfare benefits and even how to contact a Mexican consulate if charged with, say, vehicular homicide or whatever: Fox & Co., with the support of America’s Uniparty, exporting as many unwanted `Indios’ to us to care for as the market can bear, so they can send money home, while making sure Hondurans, El Salvadorans and Guatemalans riding on the top of El Bestia (the beast) train north pay bribes all along the way, stay on the train (!) and follow the lead of their fellow Mexican criminal invaders ... but Trump and Americans, they say, are lazy, xenophobic, bigoted racists.
Mexico is probably by far the largest provider of marijuana.
Most of those growing crops grow pot.
Flood the US with tens of millions of existing and future drug addicts, then lay all the blame on us. This is rich.
he’s right because we have such a shallow, petty, wimpy, pleasure seeking populace in the USA, where drugs are “victimless” they tell us, and porn is considered mainstream, WE Americans are to blame for the drug wars thru our stinking drug use..
Make Mexico Spain Again
