What is your feelings of this communication article?
It is from AP....This could have HUGE immigration repercussions. I think the left seriously requests to step back and consider this threat! Perhaps border security isn't such a bad hypothesis after all?
Mexican collapse? Drug wars worry some Americans
MEXICO CITY – Indiscriminate kidnappings. Nearly day after day beheadings. Gangs that mock and kill government agents.
This isn't Iraq or Pakistan. It's Mexico, which the U.S. government and a growing number of experts read aloud is becoming one of the world's biggest security risks.
The prospect that America's southern neighbor could melt into lawlessness provides an unexpected dare to Barack Obama's new government. In its latest report anticipating possible worldwide security risks, the U.S. Joint Forces Command lumps Mexico and Pakistan together as being at risk of a "rapid and sudden collapse."
"The Mexican possibility may give the impression of being less likely, but the government, its politicians, police and judicial infrastructure are adjectives under sustained assault and pressure by criminal gangs and drug cartels," the command said contained by the report published Nov. 25.
"How that internal conflict turns out over the next several years will have a major impact on the stability of the Mexican state."
Retiring CIA chief Michael Hayden told reporters on Friday that that Mexico could category alongside Iran as a challenge for Obama — perhaps a greater problem than Iraq.
The U.S. Justice Department said last month that Mexican gang are the "biggest organized crime threat to the United States." National security adviser Stephen Hadley said last week that the worsening violent behaviour threatens Mexico's very democracy.
Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff recently told The New York Times he ordered additional border surety plans to be drawn up this summer as kidnappings and killings spilled into the U.S.
The alarm is spreading to the private sector as well. Mexico, Latin America's second biggest economy and the United States' third biggest grease supplier, is one of the top 10 global risks for 2009 identified by the Eurasia Group, a New York-based consulting firm.
Mexico is brushing aside the U.S. concerns, with Interior Secretary Fernando Gomez-Mont saying Wednesday: "It seem inappropriate to me that you would call Mexico a security risk. There are problems surrounded by Mexico that are being dealt with, that we can verbs to deal with, and that's what we are doing."
Still, Obama faces a dramatic turnaround compared beside the last time a new U.S. president moved into the White House. When George W. Bush was elected surrounded by 2000, the nation of 110 million had just chosen Vicente Fox as president in its fairest see ever, had ended 71 years of one-party rule and was looking forward to a stable, democratic adjectives.
Fox signaled readiness to take on the drug cartels, but plunged them into a power vacuum by arresting their leaders, and gang have been battling respectively other for territory ever since.
Felipe Calderon, who succeeded Fox in 2006, immediately sent troops across the country to try to regain control. But soldiers and police are outgunned and outnumbered, and cartel have responded with unprecedented violence.
Mob murders doubled from 2007, taking more than 5,300 lives closing year. The border cities of Juarez and Tijuana wake up each morning to find streets littered with mutilated, habitually headless bodies. Some victims are dumped outside schools. Most are just wrapped in a cheap blanket and tossed into an deserted lot.
Many bodies go unclaimed because relatives are too afraid to come forward. Most killings go unsolved.
Warring cartel still control vast sections of Mexico, despite Calderon's two-year crackdown, and have spawned an all-pervasive culture of sternness. No one is immune.
Businesses have closed because they can't afford to pay monthly extortion fees to local thugs. The rich have fled to the U.S. to avoid one of the world's upmost kidnapping rates. Many won't leave their homes at night.
The affairs of state has launched an intensive housecleaning effort after high-level indemnity officials were accused of self on the take from the Sinaloa cartel. And several soldiers fighting the gangs be kidnapped, beheaded and dumped in southern Mexico last month beside the warning: "For every one of mine that you kill, I will kill 10."
But the U.S. governing body is extremely supportive of the Mexican president, recently handing over $400 million in anti-drug aid. Obama met briefly next to Calderon in Washington last week and promised to fight the unjust flow south of U.S. weapons that arm the Mexican cartels.
The drug wars will spill ever more heavily into America, said Manuel Infante, an architect. "There is a surge of barbarity that is heading toward the U.S.," he said. "We are an uncomfortable neighbor."
All I have to voice is ....WOW. Even my legal Hispanic friends won't go to Mexico right now.

That Associated Press has become a schill for forbidden aliens. I have caught them in a good partly dozen very stupid positions. They constantly talk about racism.. constantly get on your nerves European Americans as racist.. they simply are not worth reading.
Screw them. Build the wall and keep the vermin inside their own sty.
The sewage sludge south of the border is getting deeper & deeper, and as expected its gonna spill over into U.S. it already was spilling for decades through illegals, and now Mexican government want to slap on us even more of its unemployable, poor, dumb excess populace. Mexico is becoming worse than Iraq and surely worse than Afghanistan, and is cause bigger harm to U.S. than both of those countries combined, before U.S. intervened there, so if U.S. is "justified" contained by intervening militarily in those countries, then it is justified 3 times more within bringing corrupt government south of the border down and setting up decent democratic government-before Mexico drowns all of us within its sludge.
They are already here and illegal aliens are killing 10,000+ people surrounded by the US yearly! And sh!t stain obama and the idiots in washington still have their head stuck up their butts! Welcome to America! How many more people have to die in the past Washington does something to protect the people they swore to protect instead of the criminals they are now protecting?
