Declaring war on the cartels would be great for keeping the military industrial complex goons placated, instead of drone striking brown people in caves halfway across the world, they can switch to brown people in jungles close to home and get more support from the U.S. and Mexican population. If we're going to do endless war we can at least do it in a way that actually benefits us and not Israel.
It feels weird to see foreign policy I always advocated for actually be considered. The devil will be in the details, this cannot be half-assed.
 
Amazing how after 20 years of failed wars like those there are retards who still think we should get into another foreign quagmire, you better fucking enlist and be on the frontlines of juarez city ready to take a bullet in the face for uncle Sam, had enough of you chickenhawk shits back in the dubya years. Seriously are you people retarded? we can just turn the entire border into an unpassable DMZ for a fraction of a fraction of the money and lives it would take to intervene in Mexico. We literally have nothing to gain from another forever war and with latinos now being the first minority and the bulk of them being mexicans you have to be eating lead paint chips to believe the violence is gonna stay south of the border. Mexico is not on the other side of the planet like the middle east, and we hardly had any Iraqis and Afghans living here back then. Our borders are so full of holes its not even funny and instead of actually reinforcing them and doing basic stuff like filling them with landmines we're sending more Americans to die abroad? is this 5-dimensional checkers again?
Afghanistan and the entire middle East are war torn shit holes full of people whose entire ancestry for thousands of years have also been warlike tribalists and warlords. Afghanistan is called the graveyard of empires for a reason, the goat fuckers will absolutely dig in and defend their sand dunes.

Mexico is an engorged tick infested with narcoterrorists who even the locals can't stand. They haven't had a sense of military capability since Santa Ana and we still kicked his faggot ass and then surrounded Mexico City. Cartels aren't dangerous because they have some super powerful organized paramilitary, they're dangerous because they have enough cops and government officials in Mexico bought off that if you speak against them they can get your address from your local politician and send sicarios to your house.

We have a better war record against Latin America, let's carpet bomb the narcos.
 
Like I agree there are issues with an invasion of Mexico [...] but expecting Taiwan to fall because of it is not one of them.
More that if we have to go in hard it's better to do so while China's busy, and I don't think they're moronic enough to invade Afghanistan; case in point, look how busy Russia is, and how that's affected shit in Syria. We really can't afford to fuck up Mexico the way we can say Iraq or absolutely any other state in the Middle East; you break it you buy it won't just be a moral imperative, look how shitty it is being next to them with how bad they are already.
 
What these people don't understand about the cartels is these aren't ideological fanatics. These are people who want to get rich and live the good life, which they currently can. They live openly in palaces in Mexico, because nobody dares to touch them. A MOAB turning a $50m estate into rubble and previously untouchable leadership into red mist will change that calculus fast. Nobody's going to hole up in the mountains for 20 years and live like it's 500 BC because they're just that fanatically committed the cause of smuggling fentanyl. If being the leader of a cartel means you have to live in a cave or eat a JDAM, a whole lot more Mexican boys will be looking for honest work.
this is the best geopolitical analysis of the situation PERIOD
 
They're too busy having a stroke over Elon stimming on stage.
"Elon, as long as my base doesn't get mad at you again you're effectively bullet proof. I need you to do something for me. I'm about to turn over the apple cart, crush the cabbages if you will.

I need you to do something so outrageous, but ultimately inane and harmless, that it will immunize the deep state against everything I'm about to do. Do this for me, and your stupid statements on the H1B visas and you faking your gaming cred will be forgiven."

"What Emperor does thou ask of me."

"All you have to do is salute."

"Twice in your honor my liege".

Really? You're accusing the wrong person of being "thirsty."

Whether or not we win a war depends on your win condition. If the win condition is "make Mexico a Jeffersonian democracy," then absolutely, we should stay out. If the win condition is "kill the heads of the cartels, turn their compounds into rubble, and make the Mexican government sign terms allowing us to keep airbases on their territory for the purpose of blowing up bad guys whenever they pop up," that could be done in under 90 days.
 
Don't forget the helmet cams. Need to show the terror in these Cartel fucks eyes to the world

Walling ourselves off doesn't fix the problem. It's time to take care of the niggerweeds in our own backyard. No more drugs or gangs. All of them are gonna be splat.
if they can't get in here they can't make money or cause trouble. if we never took any muslims after 9/11 we wouldn't have any truck of peace memes. Shooting retards who illegally cross our border is a better plan creating a mexican vietnam.

then I am blessed that most tejanos are more loyal to texas than they are to mexico and the US
that'll change when some dumb hick starts killing mexicans out of misplaced patriotism. it's inevitable for this to be an ethnic conflict, we can't escape it.
 
If we’re going to war with Mexico, just remember that Mexico still has all the battle flags they captured at the Alamo and we still have Santa Anna’s wooden leg in some museum in Illinois which is not even close to a fair deal.
Returning that leg by shoving it up the angle of indepences ass would be the ultimate lmao, though.
 
WHY IN THE FUCK IS THAT LEG NOT HERE IN TEXAS!?
Because it was captured later on, during the Mexican-American War, by a soldier from a unit out of Illinois.

Efforts have been made at various points to get the Alamo relics back but Mexico has always refused. They don’t want the leg back, BTW, it’s already been offered in trade and they turned it down.
