What makes anyone think they want to prevent it?
A start would be patrolling the border to help keep their people home.
In fact, the notion that Mexico needs to "prevent" a problem that the U.S. is unwilling to deal with is laughable.
I'm sure they don't. Fox is always crying to the UN or the EU or International Courts because we're trying to stop them from coming into the US.
The Mexican Government prints a booklet to
tell their people how to be an illegal and
enter our nation.
Mexico is an enemy of the US, not a friend,
and time will prove any skeptic wrong.
During 9/11 there was not one peep from the mainstream mess that Mehico, not the Brits were the last country to attack American soil. Pancho Villa rides again.
Maybe it's time to start picketing Mexico and their reps.
I happened to catch that segment, and I cannot remember exactly what the Mexican official said, but whatever it was, the perfect question for Hannity to ask was, "And what does Mexico do to protect her southern border from illegal entry?" and he never asked it! I wanted to jump thru the tv and help him!!

"Why spend 10's of billions indefinitely on our own version of The Wall, when putting a few AMERICAN lawbreakers in jail will solve the majority of the problem ?"
Exactly. But I think we need to start with the lawMAKERS who continue to sit on their hands and ignore the problem. As long as the government turns a blind eye, including Bush, we have no chance of fixing it.
This issue alone will decide how I vote in 2006 and 2008. Yes it's that important.
I agree..
This issue is that important.

Their emigration of millions of peons is an escape valve for them. That way they don't have to worry about modernizing their economy to provide employment for them.
The whole country is corrupt from top to bottom.
A start would be a complete regime change. Mexico presents the familiar pattern of a corrupt, incompetent, ruling elite stifling ecomomic growth at home because that means change which might threaten their power. This ensures poverty at home which drives people elsewhere in search of a better life.
In that interview, Tancredo relates his conversation with Juan Hernandez, who heads up that Ministry:
“ I asked about the purpose of the government agency he heads, since I had never heard of such a thing. He said its purpose is to increase the flow of Mexican nationals to the United States. I asked, ‘Why?’
"’It serves Mexico's needs,’ he said, and ticked off a list of such things as remittances to Mexico of $10 billion a year, which is 30 percent of the Mexican GDP [gross domestic product]. It provides employment for an exploding population, it alleviates social instability due to rising unemployment and it provides training for Mexicans, ultimately repatriating those skills back to Mexico.
“I responded to his final aim - repatriation of trained and skilled Mexicans back into Mexico - and asked, ‘Then your government would oppose amnesty for the illegal Mexicans in the United States?’
“He cried, ‘Oh no! We support amnesty totally. . . . by populating the United States with millions of Hispanics who are tied economically, politically and linguistically to Mexico, we are able to exert enormous influence and pressure on U.S. policy and its dealings with Mexico.’
“President Vicente Fox believes the U.S. border is a figment of the imagination. In fact, Fox and/or members of his government stated at one point that the borders of Mexico extend much farther north than currently drawn on the map.”
Great minds think alike. We posted a minute apart.

"The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government,
1. The act of invading; the act of encroaching upon the rights or possessions of another; encroachment; trespass.
"But I think we need to start with the lawMAKERS who continue to sit on their hands and ignore the problem."
LawMakers are not needed - the laws are there... we need to find out just why they are not being carried out.
