From the AP:
President Vicente Fox telephoned U.S. President George W. Bush on Sunday to express concern about the prospect of the United States militarizing its southern border.
Well Mr. Fox, if you’re so concerned about relations with the U.S. and the possiblity of the militarization of the border, maybe your government shouldn’t publish a “how-to” on jumping the border.
(This is not a joke, it’s a real brochure published by the Mexican Department of External Relations–a.k.a. Departamento Mexicano de Relaciones Exteriores.)
Of course, our own government appears to be less than zealous to keep the illegal Mexicans out. They’ve been tipping off the Mexican government to the whereabouts of the Minutemen:
According to three documents on the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Relations Web site, the U.S. Border Patrol is to notify the Mexican government as to the location of Minutemen and other civilian border patrol groups when they participate in apprehending illegal immigrants — and if and when violence is used against border crossers.
That’s certainly more than disturbing.
