Mexico is a very populous Nation. 25 million in Mexico City alone. And Mexicans are very proud people. As one who has worked in Mexico, speaks Spanish fluently, and has a laundry list of Mexican girlfriends from Tampico to Veracruz to Guadalajara in the past, I can tell you, from first-hand knowledge the last thing that they would do in such a situation would be to "let the Yankees in". Every man, woman and child in Mexico would take up the revolt against the "Yankees in the North." Mexicans are extremely emotional.
They don't necessarily put their heads in front of their hearts. It wouldn't matter to them that the Americans had a stronger Military. It would be a matter of pride. They would gladly give their lives in the name of "La Raza." --- In [email protected], <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > From: Eric Dondero Rittberg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > > Let's get very, very specific here.

If we tell them what we are going to do and then tell them to stay out of it or to get off their asses and help. Their military would be toast if they tried to take ours on. > > BWS > ------------------------ Yahoo! Groups Sponsor --------------------~--> Great things are happening at Yahoo! Groups.
