THE NEOCON PIVOT TO MEXICO

     So, despite our own State Department issuing detailed warnings and advisories about travelling to unsafe parts of Mexico, a few entitled ignoramuses from the US always seem to have try and go anyway. Not infrequently, some end up in Mexican jails; others kidnapped and held for ransom, and a few others dead. Recently, this happened again; and to distract public attention from the fact that most American cities have out-of-control crime, the Corporate Media, paid pundits, and political grandstanders are howling with outrage over the fact that people who can't safely walk the streets of Chicago can't be safe in gang-ridden parts of Mexico. 

    RINO Senators Lindsey Graham, whose last call for military action was against American citizens, and John Kennedy, whose constituency would love to get their hands on Mexico's massive oil reserves, are denouncing the Junta to anyone who'll listen for not being 'Alphas' and unleashing our laughably toothless military against Mexico in retaliation. 

   The Controlled Opposition press is singing the same chorus. They have a large audience of uneducated xenophobes who've been primed for several years to imagine Mexico as a hostile foreign power and migrant farm-workers as an invading army. Josh Hammer---a 'Conservative' editorialist at the Moonie Cult-operated outlet Newsweek---unleashed a torrent of hysterics this weekend which has gone viral. 

   The would-be Alphas on the 'New Right' are obsessed with finding foreign scapegoats for problems which are largely problems of the US Deep State's own making. Hammer---echoing the Bush years--- hypocritically compares Mexican drug cartels to Islamic terror cults.

   "Consider the fact that, as recently as 2021, 625 U.S. citizens were abducted in Mexico. Far too many did not come home, as their families failed to pay ransom, and the abductees were thus killed. If an Islamic jihadist outfit were responsible for such atrocities on this scale, on an annual basis, Congress would pass a bipartisan authorization to use military force, and the United States would not hesitate to declare all-out war. After 9/11, the United States waged war on al-Qaeda; but for some reason, with hundreds of citizen kidnappings, far too many murders, and an unfathomable number of Americans now dropping dead from cartel-supplied fentanyl poison, bipartisan elites cite concerns about diplomatic niceties and say our hands are tied."

   Oh sure, Hammer. Mexico is forcing Americans to be drug addicts. Not Big Pharma---which over-prescribes dope and turns people into addicts. Not the Wall Street Robber Barons who've given us a controlled economy that makes drug trafficking more profitable than honest work. Not our crooked politicians and Big Ag that are flooding the country with gateway drugs like high-potency marijuana and over-the-counter psych-dope. Not our Deep State that engages in dope traffick to line its own pockets and advance its agenda. No: what we need is another war to prove to Americans that we're tough guys and not weenies and to increase those 'stakeholders' bottom lines.

    

    These same warhawks have apparently also forgotten the last 'Red Wave' and its promises to get to the bottom of things like Operation Fast and Furious. Of course, there has never been much investigation into the massive arms trafficking operations originating in US Black-Ops sites like those operated in Iraq and parts of Syria still illegally occupied by US troops.  For some reason it seems that our frontline heroes guarding the Southern Border are quite adept at catching migrant workers but somehow narcotics and weapons get through with little difficulty. One might be suspicious that American officials and Mexican criminal cartels might be working in concert. But certainly, the fact-checkers in our media would assure us that just because Mexican authorities in the past have captured American agents selling weapons and at least two plane-loads of American government aircraft loaded with drugs, that doesn't mean it's happening now. 

    Invading Mexico really wouldn't solve any problems---except maybe to eliminate foreign competition for America's thriving dope market. That's really---at the Oligarchy's levels---the reason for promoting all of this anti-Mexico hype. Mexico's current president is actually trying to do something. Like Trump, he's up against entrenched vested interests who aren't happy that part of his swamp-draining has included ejecting American spooks and provocateurs from positions of influence. Ideologically, Mexico's President is three things that the Great Reset crowd hate:

   1.) Nationalism: he believes that Mexicans should run their own country and not be another American suzerainty;

   2.) Economic Protectionism: he believes that Mexico should control its own economy instead of Wall Street and supranational Corporate Cartels;

   3.) Social Conservatism: he actually believes in things like strengthening families and rejecting woke Corporatism and American Cultural Imperialism. 

   So naturally, the Neocons and the Junta are going to join hands and create a new enemy image which is cast against any other government with the spine to assert its rights against the New World Order. All of this talk about Mexico 'invading' us or otherwise waging some vague 'war' on America is just rhetoric for the consumption of latent Alt-Right white nationalists who see Chinese devils or Mexican banditos everywhere and are looking for some scapegoat to release their pent-up libido upon. 

   This should be obvious, but somehow Americans manage to fall for it every single time. Invading Iraq didn't stop Islamic extremism. Military 'containment' policies strengthened---not weakened---Russia and China. The same with intervening in Syria: Iran---where the policy was actually aimed at---came out the major power in the Middle East. Bombing Mexico isn't going to solve our drug or crime problem either. Our policy of "projecting power" has never worked. Even during the Cold War of the mid-20th Century all of the proxy wars and the arms race led to the Soviet Union gaining allies until the 1980s when Reagan changed course and concentrated on American defense and diverting resources into American infrastructure. Unfortunately, Reagan was succeeded by administrations bent on American supremacy and we've been in decline ever since. 

   America's drug and crime problem is one of our own making, as are about 90% of our other problems. Electing Woke Leftist idiots or Red-Pilled bully-boys is no solution. We're like 1930s Europe with Blue Shirts and Red Shirts running around projecting all of their own neuroses on imaginary domestic and foreign bogeymen while the Oligarchs orchestrating both sides laugh in their sleeves and roll in the money.

  Update: a few hours after this article was published came the news  that thousands of people of border at El Paso have rushed the border bridge and stormed across. Well, wow---is anybody surprised that threatening to hit a community with an airstrike didn't cause a mass-panic? What did fools like Graham and Josh Hammer expect? That the people were going to stand outside with slingshots waiting to defend their refugee-camps? Everytime these RINOs and Red Pills open their mouths, they insert their foot.

   It never dawns on any of these knee-jerk 'red wave' NPCs that just maybe some of the people trying to come here from Northern Mexico might be trying to escape the cartels. As mentioned above, they seem to be having drug-fueled nightmares of banditos hovering over their homes in Chinese-made weather balloons or something. At least that's how they both talk and behave. I just hope that these refugees aren't rushing from the frying-pan to the fire.
