Former Mexican President formed a governmental agency called the “Institute for Mexicans Abroad” .....the agency’s principal objective is to “serve and dignify the 24 million living abroad. “We are betting on that the Mexican-American population in the United States…will think ‘Mexico first’ … But now I want the third generation, the seventh generation, I want them all to think ‘Mexico first.’”


REALITY CHECK Central American govts are conspiring against the US-—threatening the United States.......UNLESS we send them more money.

Guatemalan President Otto Perez warns the USA:
“you will be inundated w/ more contagious illegals
if billions of US tax dollars are not handed over.”

GUATEMALA CITY (Reuters) - The United States should provide billions of dollars to help Central American nations curb the flow of illegal migrants, Guatemalan President Otto Perez said, and his government warns the problem will get worse if Washington fails to help.

Fleeing violence, trying to reach relatives already in the United States or seeking jobs, record numbers of child migrants from Honduras, Guatemala and El Salvador have been stopped at the southern U.S. border this year, causing widespread alarm. Last month, the three countries pitched Washington an ambitious development plan to confront the issue.

They want to pump about $10 billion into the region to create jobs and lift living standards, with the bulk of funding coming from the United States, Perez told Reuters. He hopes the plan could come up with about $2 billion a year from 2015 to 2019, a sum he equated to roughly 10 percent of annual U.S. spending on border security and immigration enforcement.

“Now we understand it’s not simply a question of the United States saying: ‘Right, here’s $2 billion a year for five years’ for example - the governments of the three countries have to play their part too,” the conservative Perez, who took power in early 2012, said in an interview late on Monday.

The US aid package would boost infrastructure and provide more jobs in all three countries, especially in areas that send large numbers of migrants to the United States, he added.

The three Central American governments are urging the United States to shoulder the lion’s share of the costs, arguing that U.S. demand for illegal narcotics has fueled violence among drug gangs across much of the impoverished region.

“The United States has to support this, it has no other option,” Guatemala’s foreign minister, Carlos Morales, told Reuters. “If they don’t support it, the crisis will kick off again, you can count on it.”

Perez said he hoped the United States would put up about 60 percent of funding. “But we’ll have to discuss it calmly and see what each individual country can do, and what can be achieved by common consent.”

During meetings in New York in September, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry told Central American officials he hoped Congress could approve about $300 million in funding, Morales said, noting the sum was “nothing” given the scale of the problem.

Central American leaders are due to meet Vice President Joe Biden on Nov. 12 in Washington to sound out U.S. support for their plan, Morales added.—SNIP—

JUST A REMINDER : $266 million of your tax dollars
in the current spending bill...going to Central America
earmarked for “humanitarian aid to the children.”

We're being blackmailed; and Congress caves.

Of course, its Left Progressive members will delight in this fresh opportunity to provide "humanitarian relief, for the chillun" — just so long as it goes to countries who cannot provide a decent life, a decent standard of living, necessary infrastructure, medical and educational resources, etc., etc., to its own nationals. So they export their problems North, to the U.S. border.

And although Mexico, which these "exports" must traverse before they can get there, rigorously enforces its own immigration laws (based on the jus sanguinas principle), its own southern border is completely permeable by these hordes rising from their South.

Totally sick-making.

Thanks, liz, for the eye-opening essay/post.
