EDITORIAL - Discussion of illegal immigration and the invasion of illegal immigrants have given speculation how a second Mexican-American war would look. A former Army officer recently said to me, "It definitely wouldn't be a conventional war. Considering that already so many of the enemy are within the United States, it would be an unconventional war to say the least."
Mexicans certainly have their allies. As was reported recently by various agencies, Arabic terrorists are sneaking into the United States disguised as Hispanics. They look just like Mexicans and they speak fluent Spanish too. The Mexican military and Mexican cartels are aiding them in training camps to learn Spanish and to blend into Hispanic culture.
Sheriffs in Texas have recently found Iranian currency, military badges in Arabic, clothes and other Arabic items along the banks of the Rio Grande River. Someone who has spent much time on the border recently said to me, "You know, it is really shocking how many Mexicans support these terrorists. They seem to admire them."
Mexicans also have aligned themselves with other Hispanic groups, like MS13, and have access to firearms, grenades, artillery, and possibly even backpack nukes. In recent years twenty million Mexicans have already invaded the United States.
Believing in Aztlan, they plan to reclaim the Southwestern United States. Gangs, crime, disease, and hatred run rampant. It is a zero-sum game, and Mexicans believe that time is on their side for reclaiming the Southwestern United States.
But putting the terrorists and Central and South American cartels aside, Mexicans have looked elsewhere for allies: Asia. With the exception of a very small upper class in Mexico of pure European descent, most Mexicans are either Amerindian or Mestizo (mostly Amerindian with a few drops of Spaniard blood). The Amerindians originally came from Asia, and now many Mexicans are seeking alliances with their ancient relatives. Mexicans have especially looked toward China and India, hoping to acquire new technologies.
So, how would the war look? There are possibly 20 million illegal Mexicans within the United States. But they have also allied themselves with millions of other Hispanics and Asians. The total number of enemies could be at least 60 million. And much of the war would be fought within the United States – not in Mexico. "The enemy is within," as a recent military strategist said.
And considering that many Hispanics are in the ranks of the U.S. military, and would side with their fellow Hispanics in this war, the U.S. military would be engaged in a "civil war of sorts." The U.S. military would break down into two separate armies. Therefore, the U.S. military wouldn't be completely reliable, and thus your average citizen would have to take up arms, join militias, and defend his homeland.
This would perhaps be the war of wars, but in the end I have confidence that the patriots will be victorious.
William H. Calhoun is a graduate of the University of Chicago, a conservative, and writer.
It will be just like last time, but quicker. The Presidential Palace = It's over.
Over here .......
As the average citizen is armed and motivated the outcome would be victory but the cost would be terrible. Build the wall and enforce the law before things get worse.
If there is a war this time we should not give back everything north of Mexico city again. Or south.
General Sam Houston must be rolling over in his grave!
How many states are in there? Annex everything except the Indian state on the south end.
It's a one-sided demographic war where our enemy relies upon open borders, political correctness, and the greed/shortsightedness of American politicians and their big donors for its success. And at the rate the invaders are arriving/breeding, total victory isn't too far off.
What a strange article. The white dudes must be shaking in their boots.
I don't see a "war" perse, just a slow leak of soverignty. Once California politics becomes dominated by Hispanics, look for it to paint itself as a "honest broker" betweent the US and Mexico--rather than a state. Of course--they will still want their full share of Federal benefits. If the jokers in Washington allow this to stand, which I bet they will, things will devolve very quickly from there.

Where did you find this garbage? The chances of Hispanics in the military siding with Mexico if it came to that are slim at best. The writer is an idiot. Yes ther may be a few who side with Mexico, but those numbers would be very very small. This guy is a moron, and has no business questioning the patriotism of Hispanics in uniform. I think I'm gonna go throw up now!
BTTT
Terrorists don't need to go to that much trouble - the CANDAIN BORDER is more porous and EASIER to go over. Terrorists don't need to learn Spanish to get here ILLEGALLY. 9/11 terrorists came in through Canada.
Mix in some fact, a lot of fanciful fiction, insult the honor and loyalty of our military, then watch who is silly enough to come out to applaud.
Have anybody in mind? Vicente Fox? Jesse Jackson?
Been saying that for two years. Do it now before doing it becomes a holocaust. Because it is gonna happen. Mexico has the arrogant attitude of any other common dictatorship and that is all it takes to create the sparks of the war. The mexican citizens are buying it hook-line-sinker. They believe they have OUR rights when the illegally violate the border laws and are being told it does not matter if they break our laws. They are being told Americans "stole" the u. S. territory from mexico. The communist propaganda being pumped into the mexican citizens is very typical.
If the united States does not stop, repeat ... S-T-O-P ... the invasion, deport the illegals and totally control the borders, the results are very predictable.
