U.S. drones allowed in Mexico

If you have not already heard, our nation's borders have been unsecured for many years and the United States has dealt with constant bombardment of criminal illegal aliens from Mexico.

Furthermore, the drug cartel violence throughout Mexico has continued to escalate. I reported in previous blog posts here on Independent Word, that the Mexican Military and Police Force are loosing the battle against the cartels. Since 2006 when President Calderon declared war, more than 35,000 people have been killed. I also came to the conclusion that sometime down the road, the United States would have to join Mexico if they ever expected to wipe the drug business out completely.

Well today, Mexico announced that U.S. drones would be permitted to fly over parts of the country adjacent to the U.S. and Mexico border in hopes to gather intelligence on drug traffickers. Now, critics are already jumping on this calling intervention from the U.S. unnecessary. Mexican Senator Luis Villareal said that "U.S. involvement violates trust and undermines national sovereignty." 

The truth of the matter here is that Mexico's inability to stop drug cartel violence and its largely outnumbered military would have only called for more intervention from the United States. Still, there are several questions. Drug cartels are a multi-billion dollar business.  It has been years dealing with a constant broken borders system and hundreds of billions of dollars spent over the years which go to what? Paying off politicians or giving kick-backs? Many of them covered in blood money? Why in the hell has it taken the United States so long to get the hint that something needs to be done to disband the drug cartels, close the border, reduce the crime wave and stop illegal immigration?

Nothing has been done. President Obama continues to play around with the idea that the borders need to remain open to welcome immigrants and it plays a crucial part in the ridiculous North American Free Trade Agreement and the Security and Prosperity Partnership that President Bush put together during his reign.

Security? Really? The CIA has verified for years that Hezbollah and other terrorist groups from the Middle East also have a presence in Mexico and are just as much of a threat to this country's national security as the drug cartels, but I digress...

Now, it appears that when the United States decides to try and work with Mexico on gathering intelligence on drug cartels, Mexico snaps back saying "we don't need you're help!"

From the looks of it Mexico, you're going to need all the help you can possibly get. How many more innocent people on either side of the border need to get killed?
