"35 olive-green Mexican Army trucks and tractor trailers as they rumbled northward toward the border"
1. Have these trucks been inspected by the DOT for safety and EPA for pollution?
2. Why weren't 100 Pemex Tankers sent with gasoline sent too?
3. Why weren't 100 Buses sent to repatriate illegal Mexican Nationals.
Sorry for the sarcasm. Mexico's only in this for themselves. They've shown their not an equal partner in allying themselves with the U.S. on ANY international issue, including Iraq.
Mexico, whose economy is Latin America's largest, is a net importer of refined oil products such as gasoline because it lacks the resources to expand capacity. Mexico City-based Pemex is able to refine less than half of the 3.3 million barrels of crude it produces daily, according to company data.
Pemex jointly owns a refinery in Deer Park with Royal Dutch Shell.

Your right about Irag and it makes me mad too, but right at this moment people are in need!
