The Mexican military is firmly under civilian control and has been for the past century. This isn’t Argentina. Ain’t gonna happen.

Last Century, you would have been correct...alas, it is a new ball game. The terror and carnage inflicted by the spiralling violence, coupled with high profile kidnappings, and murders, have brought the senior Mexican military leadership to a boil. It isnt Argentina, but it isnt Mexico under the PRI either..stand by..I hope I’m wrong..but it is coming to a boil.
