Very simple test, with a very simple answer.
Call Almo and the leaders of all the countries involved. Advise the following:
All US Diplomats and staff to be recalled, immediately.
All US Embassies and Consulates closed, until further notice.
All diplomats and staff from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras ordered out of the US and all embassies and consulates closed down.
Effetive 22Oct18, all remittance to any country south of the border will incur a 50% fee, EVerify will be made mandatory.
Any military assistance is cut off, to include any training, weapons, financial aid, advisers and anyone attending a US military school or training course will be withdrawn and sent back to country of record.
Any and all funding, in all it’s forms, is immediately cut off.
Troops will be deployed at all crossings to ensure no one enters. Rules on the Use of Force will be forthcoming.
Good thinking.
Reasonable. If Mexicans, Guatmalans and Hondurans see the hordes get thru, there would be no need for anybody to get a visa or work permit, or any document to enter the US legally.
I would tell Mexico that if they get within 50? miles of our border we are sending in the Airborne followed up by the Marines.
This might get the Mexican military involved and you know the cartels will be firing on the troops at the least.
If they want a bloodbath so be it. Inside Mexico even better.
Was thinking the same thing. Recall all diplomatic staff!
