Mexico needs BUKELE !
I've seen enough open the southern boarder to the USA!
Mexico has good chances to succeed if it will be ally of Europe just like Canada is doing now. Same thing about South America as well. All of these countries have a deep history and good examples of cooperation with Europe. Do not let these Americans from USA interfere into your own affairs and politics. You have to fight for your independence. Good luck and good wishes to you from EU/Germany.
So hamas is in Mexico. Why not give them state next to Mexico city?
Sad. You kill by the sword, ypu die by the sword. Fast money kills!
Difference between the Mafia and us: Mafia has Rules. Us doesn't.
Donald Trump is doing everything he can to let his supporters know that it's o.k. to commit political violence in the U.S.A. that benefits him. The only thing he wants for Mexico is control over how the political violence is directed.

Where is the state? We in India our PM even used tank to crush the criminals. Poor people of Mexico, they have suffered for so long and the sad part is that no one is standing up and take the bull by its horn
Who are arming these cartels? One day their love for firearms, money and drugs will backfire the US.
Asking a low level hitman who runs Mexico is like asking a cashier who runs McDonalds.
