SNIPPET: "Mexico condemns the excessive use of force associated with the Israeli army operation in Gaza, " a statement from the Mexican Foreign Ministry said late Tuesday.
It also condemned "the continued launching of mortars into Israeli territory from the Gaza Strip".
Latin American countries have largely condemned Israel over its launch of 'Operation Cast Lead' on Gaza on December 27.
Immediately after Israeli warplanes attacked the strip, Cuba called the offensive an "act of genocide" and a "criminal military operation, the bloodiest one executed by Israel against the Palestinian people."
Three day later, the Bolivian Foreign Ministry slammed the attacks as "crimes" that "represent a severe and massive violation of the International Humanitarian Law."
The governments of Chile, Nicaragua and Peru have also officially condemned the bombardments.
The Rio group, established in 1968 to promote Latin American integration, last week called for a halt to the Israeli aggression in the Gaza strip, calling on both sides to settle their dispute through negotiations.

I liked how Archie Bunker said it best. Taking over Mexico won’t be a problem if we have to, we’ll invade while they’re snoozing with the somberos on.

“Gaza Terrorists Fire Phosphorus Shell:
by Maayana Miskin
SNIPPET: “(IsraelNN.com) A phosphorus mortar shell was among the 16 rockets and shells fired at Israel by early Wednesday afternoon. Gaza terrorists fired the shell at the Eshkol region. The shell hit an open area and did not cause injury.
Local officials expressed concern over the use of a new, more deadly weapon. The potential danger is enormous, one warned. The phosphorus shell is more dangerous than the usual rockets and mortar shells fired at the region, he explained.”
Life expectancy for a Mexican police chief on the border is measured in hours. Many don't survive the day they are sworn in. Police and soldiers are having their heads cut off by hit men inspired by arab terrorists.
This is just leftist hypocrisy. Its just easy grandstanding devoid of any moral content.
Mexico voted to say “Zionism is racism” in the UN vote. There’s nothing new about the Jew-hatred in Mexico.
IN THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA...

OPINION:
In my opinion, jihadis and gangbangers are one and the same when it comes to evil, hate, murders, crime, etc.
The only difference is jihadis justify their actions via the Quran/Koran. Jihadis embrace the culture of death.
Gangbangers don’t mind killing, but they would rather look cool than be photographed dead and smiling.
Ah, Mexico, our ‘ally’....
They’ve condemned every thing the USA has ever done, including Iraq and yet we just keep handing everything we have to them.
Maybe next they would be kind enough to “denounce” the illegal invasion of MY COUNTRY by THEIR citizens.
“these Tird Whirld IDIOTS think like cloudy headed Obamanite liberals ! “
Mexico and Iran have recent trade agreements.

Western European business visitors turned Mexico toward neo-Nazism long ago.
Mexico is our Palistine.
Was this outrage expressed by it’s drug lords and corrupt police and officials?
Mexico has a LONG way to go before commenting on another country.
We could solve the Israli/Palistinian/Mexico problem in one swoop. Take a stretch of the entire border and give it to Israel and I bet they’ll keep the Mexicans on their side of the border...
THE WAR NEXT DOOR
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2151549/posts
[snips]How do you begin to understand that so many people are dying in Mexico? More than 5,000 casualties because of narcotrafficking. Thats more than all of the American troops that have died fighting an actual war in Iraq.
One grisly new tactic is beheadings. A headless corpse hung above a busy highway almost two hours before police covered it with a sheet - the head found in a nearby park.
In Tijuana, nine men were decapitated last month, three of them policemen, their badges stuck in their mouths - some of the 40 murders in Tijuana occurred in just one weekend.

http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/americans-kidnapped-mexican-border-towns
Last year alone,(2007) at least 26 San Diego County residents were kidnapped and held for ransom just miles from the U.S. border in the Mexican towns of Tijuana, Rosarito Beach and Ensenada. The FBI says many victims get beaten, tortured or raped and some are murdered.
In the past five days of 2009, the number of deaths in Mexico linked to organized crime, particularly drug trafficking, has risen to 63. At least 12 crimes per day have occurred and in the past few hours, 24 assassinations have been reported throughout the country.

10:58 A.M. EST
PRESIDENT BUSH: Bienvenido a mi amigo. Mr. President, welcome. It has been a true pleasure to work with President Calderón. He’s a man of conviction, he is a man of principle, and he is a man who’s willing to take on tough challenges. I appreciate every meeting I’ve had with him.
I want to talk about two subjects quickly. One, Americans are concerned about the battle that’s taking place in Mexico, and I want our fellow citizens to understand that this man understands the responsibilities of government to provide security; that he will not allow his country, or parts of his country, to be taken over by narco-traffickers; and that the United States of America wants to share and help deal with the issue on both sides of the border. The less drugs we use, the less pressure there will be in Mexico. We have got responsibilities to help prevent guns from going from the United States into Mexico.
And so, Mr. President, you and I have laid the foundation for a constructive and mutual engagement on this issue.
And secondly, I want to thank you for your steadfast support of trade. I’m a big, strong believer in NAFTA. NAFTA has been good for the United States of America, and NAFTA has been good for Mexico. And I want to thank you for that.
And so, Mr. President, it has been a pleasure to work with you. Thank you for your friendship.
PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: (Speaking in Spanish.)
(Speaking in English.) We have a strong commitment in order to fight and defeat the criminals in Mexico, and we will do so. And we have a strong commitment to the rule of law, enforcement of the law in our country.
(Speaking in Spanish.)
(Speaking in English.) Thank you, President Bush. Good luck in the future.
PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you, sir.
INTERPRETER: Good afternoon, friends. I wanted to say that I came here to Washington, D.C., to wish President Bush the very best. I want to wish him and his family all the best in this new phase. And I want to thank him especially for the friendship that he has shown me over the last two years in facing our common challenges together.
PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: And his support.
INTERPRETER: And for his support. With regard to the issues that President Bush has raised, I want to say that our administration has made a crucial decision in this regard. We are going to be promoting law, we are going to be promoting order in our country. We will be promoting the rule of law for all Mexicans.
We have worked jointly in this regard. We have worked together on the drug trafficking combat front. We have worked together to combat organized crime.
This is not an isolated problem for any country. This is a common problem that affects us both. And in order to do so, we have worked together and we have made this resolution.
We are committed to fighting criminals and to overcoming them once and for all. And the rule of law is the one thing that I want to stress we are going to promote, no matter what, in our country.
I agree with what the President has said with regard to the North America Free Trade Agreement. It has proved to be very useful, both for the United States and for Mexico. In that regard, millions of jobs were created here in the United States. Mexico is the second-largest purchaser of U.S. goods. We buy, in fact, twice as many U.S. products as the People’s Republic of China. Two million jobs based on exports were created in Mexico —
PRESIDENT CALDERÓN: No, in the United States.
INTERPRETER: In the United States — excuse me — as a result of NAFTA. And yesterday, I was discussing with President-Elect Obama the fact that we are willing to continue working on future additions of a way to continue to build on the achievements that NAFTA has created — benefits, issues of concern to both of our citizens. I understand that there are issues of concern to Mexicans, as well as to U.S. citizens, on the issue of the environment and on labor.
I want to wish the very best to President Bush, to his family, as well as to the United States. The U.S. will continue to solve its problems with success, I have no doubt about that. And we in Mexico can only wish the very best for this country, a great country, and for its citizens in overcoming the economic crisis it is now facing, overcoming other problems, as well as drug consumption, because any problems arising in the United States in some way will also affect Mexican citizens, as well.
And so we can only wish you the very best in every area. Thank you.
PRESIDENT BUSH: Thank you, thank you. Adios.
