You bet I know it. It is why I am dismayed at all the visceral reactions to hate Russia on FR.

Mexico is far more a dangerous nation doing damage to the US than anyone else, yet, no calls for war with Mexico.

Mexico was perfectly willing to keep those asylum seekers, etc. on its side of the border while Trump was President. It is well-within our own ability to secure that southern border with a wall, etc., if we so chose. But...Biden was elected, so our border is screwed.

That's not Mexico's fault. It's ours.

I personally don't want to begin a shooting war with Russia, but I'm totally fine with non-military embargoes and other actions to isolate and cripple their economy.

See, I was just thinking that last night. The best thing that could happen to our country, AND the people of Mexico, would be if we pulled a Putin and took over Mexico and made it a territory rather than let China come in and take over Mexico. And that is coming very soon. China is going to be at our southern border and be a burr under our saddle just like the Ukraine is to Russia.

It would cure a LOT of their problems, and a LOT of our own problems. It would be a win win for Both. And we ARE ALREADY at war with Mexico. It would help curb the gangs, It would help repair their corrupt government, it would make their economy better, it would make their quality of living better, and if they are happy in Mexico they will stay there which would in turn help our own economy and crime problems...

This is the similar situation Putin is up against.

Here is they way I see it, and actually we should all stop falling for the psyops. They are both bad guys, Why are we are we being shamed into to supporting one bad guy over another bad guy? This thing is like a car thief stealing a car from another car thief. Why would we support one thief over the other thief? I doesn’t change that they are both still thieves...
