I rise today to oppose the military preparations of the great imperialist superpower, the United States of America, to invade Mexico. In particular, I sound the warning of the plans that are being implemented as I write to militarily intervene in Mexico in order to supposedly fight drugs or some such nonsense.
Of course the United States has invaded Mexico on many occasions and expropriated half of Mexico in the nineteenth century through military force.
I call upon the Obama administration to declare that no military or other militarized United States personnel shall be sent into Mexico under any cover, under any pretense. I call upon the Obama administration to declassify all United States documents pertaining to Mexico for the last one hundred ten years including up to today so the American people and the people of Mexico can see what this sometimes visible, sometimes invisible hand has been up to in Mexico for the past one century.
I call upon the Obama administration to disband NORTHCOM which is now being converted into an instrument of aggression pointed at the working peoples of the United States and Mexico.
If Obama is progressive he will adopt harm reduction policies which allow for the effective discouragement of drug abuse and dependence while taking the big bucks out of the illegal drug trade. Harm reduction policies if effectively implemented would undermine the illegal drug marketplace because the cartels would no longer have a monopoly on these drugs.
Unfortunately Obama may be trying to prove he and the United States can win a war. However, by toying with a war with Mexico he is looking
really stupid. Would Bush ever be this dumb? I don't think so.
Strategically, the United States may be trying to reclaim the Monroe Doctrine.
