The Juarez airport would remain open if the Mexican authorities know that this is a threat from their soil against American aircraft across the border. Assuming again that this is related to missiles, in the hands of either Iranians or the cartels (who would likely be assisting the Iranians in such a scenario), if I were Trump I would warn the Mexican president that if so much as a single missile is fired from Mexican soil into U.S. airspace, we are coming in with full force and no restrictions. Go in and erase the cartels from the map. And once finished, we might take a security buffer, remove all Mexican nationals from that land, and move the border wall to the southern side of it.
I wouldn’t play around with them for one more minute, given their double-dealing on illegal invaders, drug trafficking, and now (perhaps) with permitting terrorists to operate from their soil. Of course, that is all just speculation right now, and we’ll have to wait and see what this actually is, if they even tell us.
I do know one thing: If this is related to a missile threat, and it becomes public at some point, good luck getting a large segment of the U.S. population on an aircraft anytime soon, no matter where it originates. I have no doubt that factor is playing into how they handle this and what is said, or not said, publicly (again, assuming this is missile-related).
Very strange.
