Mexico Prez says “we want peace”
ok but how many more dead innocent people will it cost for you to achieve “peace”?
the war will still be going on daily, whether this guy calls it one or not.
Calling off the war with cartels is tantamount to switching sides.
Mexico just officially became a narco state. The cartels are now running the country.
He accepted the cartels offer, money or death
Mexico lost control of it’s northern states a long time ago. The major cartels control them. I guess they got to this guy.
If there was ever a reason to build a wall, this is it.
We may need more than a wall if the whole county is in control of the Zetas.
Nothing happens in mexico before a bribe. And in this case, it was a grande of a bribe.

“Plata o Plomo” - Of course president Obrador was offered the choice to either accept the Cartel’s sliver or lead. Can you really blame him?
Who is creating the market demand for the meth and fentanyl from the cartels? Is it Mexico’s fault that they border a wealthy degenerate godless country whose people will pay dearly to smoke, snort or inject whatever poison comes their way so they can get high? A country that so far doesn’t even have the cultural confidence to build a border wall?
Why should president Obrador die for us? My hope is that Donald Trump will finally get that wall built and declare the cartels to be terrorist organizations, subject to our military force. If we’re not going to do any of that to protect our own children I don’t blame the Mexican government for surrendering to the cartels.
I wish our stupid government would end their war on drugs.
Just what many want to happen in the US as well.
It is becoming clearer to me that we should declare war on Mexico, sooner or later.
and just how many millions of dollars did the US give Mexico last year????
Plata o Plomo. Silver or Lead. The two choices given to Mexican President Andrés Manuel López Obrador.
How can he end something that never started the whole country is on the take.
Watching videos and pictures it is obvious that most of the migrants are young men. It seems to me that if someone wanted, it would be easy to organize them into a fighting force that with weapons added to the mix could easily invade the US from the South. Who might??? - maybe Soros, or who???? The sum total of the caravans would total a sizable army of young men. I have not heard of any suggestion that might be in the realm of possibility, but it sure has crossed my mind!!!
Two points....he is just a figurehead and will do as he is told. And many Democrats are on the cartel payroll too.
Looks like the $100M payoff worked again.
He is bought and paid for. $100 million at least in his bank account.
Interestingly enough, the police are making the same progress against drug trafficking as before calling an end to their efforts...
