    That would be the height of weirdness for me. Canada, under the auspices of the UN, fighting side by side with Mexico to defend against the bad old US of A.

    Huh, I would’ve thought getting into a new groundwar would have been lower on the list during a government shutdown.

        Multiple chances for a nobel peace prize. It’s stat packing but ending 30 wars you started is pretty smart.

      This is SpecOps stuff so you aren’t going to see the Big Green Weenie (Regular US Army) crossing the Rio Grande and getting into firefights. Also the article is well behind the times, JSOC / SOCNORTH started these missions months ago and the intelligence efforts started months before that.

      Even mainstream US Mil Youtubers like Cappy have been covering this for quite a while.

        we’ll need to invade the hague (netherlands) at some point to for some reason or another. And Israel wants Egyptian and Jordanian land so we’ll be there too. Its going to be a very expensive 3 years. The dollar will be worthless in the end.

    Invading a neighboring country to attack some of its citizens, what could possibly go wrong?

      Maybe we can lose Texas back to Mexico. That would be pretty alright.

    SOCNORTH (Special Operations Command North) has been active in Mexico for a while. The US is running the same type of co-op effort that has been successful in South America.

      “Successful” is an EXTREMELY generous word.
