He has a valid point there. And when Mexico was perceived as a threat we acted on it. Several times. President Polk had no qualms in invading Mexico. And when Pancho Villa raided towns in the US and then ran back to sanctuary in Mexico, General Pershing saw no problem in having the US Army cross into Mexico to get back at him. And for the last few years, more so today, we are asking Turkey not to go into Iraq to get at the PKK. Why not try diplomacy instead? That is if we had any diplomats. But you already know all this Tracy.
