Thread: Mexico’s New Meddling Plan

Mexico’s New Meddling Plan: "Zero Tolerance" Legal Assault On American Immigration Patriots

Article 41 of the Vienna Convention on Diplomatic Relations states that "it is the duty of all persons enjoying such privileges and immunities (diplomats) to respect the laws and regulations of the receiving State." Mexico is a stickler for enforcing the Vienna Convention in its own territory.

But when it comes to Mexican diplomats in the United States, they constantly meddle in U.S. internal politics as it relates to immigration. And our own government allows it.

Mexican historian and journalist Lorenzo Meyer describes the situation thusly:

"Times are changing. In the past, when Mexico's foreign policy was based on a principle of nonintervention, it was a taboo for Mexican leaders to talk about internal affairs of other countries, especially the United States. For Calderon’s government, it’s extremely important that Mexicans are able to continue migrating—it’s the country’s escape valve. There’s no other way Mexico can produce enough jobs for all its working-age residents." [Mexico Rebukes U.S. Candidates On Migrant Issues, TK

That’s certainly the way Mexico’s elite sees it. So they continue to push emigration.

Therefore it’s no surprise that at Mexico’s 19th Annual Conference of Ambassadors and Consuls, held in Mexico City on January 7th and 8th, 2008 and attended by hundreds of Mexican diplomats, that themes of U.S. immigration policy and improved methods of meddling were front and center.

At the opening ceremony the assembled diplomats were greeted by Mexican foreign minister Patricia Espinosa. She gave a speech in which she said that

"…in the face of the current situation, in which an adverse climate prevails for the Mexican communities in the United States, aggravated by the electoral debate in that country, we shall pay particular attention to the problems that confront our migrants."

(Notice that our electoral debate is an "aggravation" to the Mexican foreign minister)

Mexican officials are not pleased that amnesty was defeated in the U.S congress last year, or that states and municipalities are fighting illegal immigration. And they have plans to fight back.

President Calderon showed up at the conference, and as has been his wont as of late, felt the need to rant on the topic. [El Presidente Calderón en el marco de la Reunión de Embajadores y Cónsules de México en el Extranjero, January 7, 2008] Calderon talked about Mexican laborers as being an important part of regional (North American) integration, and quoted a White House report that claimed Mexican labor as the biggest contributor to labor productivity in the U.S. (Well, that’s what you get for listening to the Bush Administration!)

Calderon claimed that Mexican immigrants are assimilating and respect U.S. law. The presidente referred to a Kauffman Foundation report claiming that the "entrepreneurial activity among migrant workers is 40% higher than among the native population of the U.S."

If that’s the case, wouldn’t Calderon prefer those Mexicans were living and starting businesses in Mexico? [Vdare.com note: That's not the case—the Kauffman Foundation's report says specifically that "The majority of these immigrant entrepreneurs came from India, United Kingdom, China, Taiwan, Japan and Germany.â€

Are they counting ID Theft,Humane Smuggling,Drug Smuggling,Prostitution (Big problem in FL.) Pot Houses(another big problem in FL.) and Welfare Fraud ?

If so then yes they are more entrepreneurial.

As soon as the goverment figures out that we can't keep up at this pace in taking care of Mexico's population they will be gone. I think the government is slowly figuring it out. The problem as I see it today is that if Bush closes the border and sends them packing we will as a nation collapse. The reason for this is that Bush and his economics has built us up to an economy that includes them. So for him to send them home that 40 million less buying here in the US. They will also take the cars that they owe on and take them across the border. Do you think Mexico is going to make them send them back to the US. Heck no and then you will see more banks go under.
As for housing that is already going under. At 5 or 6 familes to a house when they start going home that will leave even more houses empty.
I find it rather funny that no one in the housing or banking industry thought this would all come to an end. I can't figure out how they thought that they would get away with all of this.
All I can say is what goes around comes around.

They have not only dumbed down our schools, They have dumbed down our federal government also. How can these idiots in Washington allow this to happen? I tell you my friends these people south of the border have got something that they are holding over Bush's dumb head. You would think that some one in congress or the senate would speak up and tell Mexico to stop meddling in our government's business. But for some reason they won't. This really makes me sick. Instead of them trying to reform our immigration laws, they need to take a look at their own immigration laws. Their citizens are in this country illegally and therefore they have no rights. This is really sicking and it really makes me angry. The border fence needs to be built and the jack----- in Washington need to stop walking on cotton for fear of upsetting the Mexican government.

Mexico would do itself a great service if it would provide FREE birth control to it's country's poor. And on top of that, they need to change the mindset of their poorest citizens and show them how having large families perpetuates more poverty and mires them in dependence and helplessness.
