Yes, they are lying to us.

I don't think so.

They are killing Americans in Iraq through their proxy terrorists and saying they can't stop them from going to see the American tanks they yearn for because the United States can't stop migrant workers from illegally crossing our border with Mexico.

Makes perfect sense.

The truth is they want to kill Americans and to defeat America so that it crawls back across the sea with its tail between its leg and converts to Islam.

That has nothing to do with the ability or disability to control a long, desert border.

Wars are fought against people not landmarks (fences, mountains, rivers, walls, or deserts). The War on terror is waged against terrorists and the regimes that support them. I guess your clear position is to extend the war to the governments of Mexico and Canada. That would be madness.

Nope. Madness is fighting a war on terror while leaving your borders wide open to anyone who may want to come in.

Nobody said anything about waging war against the government of Canada or Mexico. You're getting silly. It is OUR responsibility to protect OUR side of the borders. That's not war, that is, well, controlling entry by foreign nationals into your country.

Can you really not tell the diffence? If the French demand to see you passport when you cross the French border, and turn you away if you don't have one ... is that an act of war? Is that an indictment of the U.S. government?

Of course it isn't. And I think (or at least hope) that you know it.
