An OMFG *PING!*

MEXICO CITY - Mexico's top diplomat suggested Thursday that American soldiers disguised as Mexican troops may have been in the military-style Humvee filmed earlier this week protecting a marijuana shipment on the border.

Yup....you guessed it...t's AMERICA'S fault! (I'd say it's Bush's, but it IS!)

Foreign Secretary Luis Ernesto Derbez also told a news conference that U.S. soldiers had helped drug smugglers before. However, he offered no evidence.

Want some Evidence Luis? (pics courtesy of posts by angkor)

How about some more detail close-up!

AS if THAT wasn't enough...

"Members of the U.S. Army have helped protect people who were processing and transporting drugs," Derbez said. "And just as that has happened ... it is very probable that something like that could have happened, that in reality they were members of some of their groups disguised as Mexican soldiers with Humvees."
Derbez said there was no proof that the men seen in the incident were Mexicans.
Derbez also said his country will send a diplomatic note to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice demanding that U.S. officials tone down their comments on Mexico's security and immigration problems.

I guess Condi, Jerkoff Chertoff and Jorge Arbusto better assume the position...time to BOHICA!

Ahead Sell-Out Factor 10, Mr. Chertoff!

These guys look like they could be MexFeds (police) who (ahem) work drug cases. They're always armed to the teeth.

Oh well whoever they are, they sure ain't US Troops. Isn't it time for us to start making alot of noise about this? Like you want to get elected again, do something about this right now, not after the elections are over and you forget what you promised.

The Minutemen projects are starting to look quite a bit more responsible these days.

Goodness, where did they find a blue jacket that would fit a Volkswagen?

Listen to the NPR News Broadcast with a short interview of Sheriff Arvin West of Hudspeth County and you will see that this is really serious.

This thread's head article does not accurately portray Monday's Confrontation, in fact the Mexican Military were guarding the Cartel vehicles as they were off loaded of narcotics. A Texas Sherrif KNOWS what the Mexican military looks like! Hear it right from the Sheriff's own mouth:

Huhhh? Derbez also said his country will send a diplomatic note to Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice demanding that U.S. officials tone down their comments on Mexico's security and immigration problems.

Demand away, a$$hole. Department of State needs to explain to Derbez, certainly in polite and diplomatic terms to shove it where the sun don't shine...

Re your #36 -

Interesting pics, but I don't see the alledged menacing Ma Deuces, do you?

That, IMHO, would be more incriminating evidence than the bales of pot.

Is that the Rio Grande that the SUV got stuck trying to get out of?
These guys were back in Mexican teritory by the time these photos were taken, were they not?

Did anyone get photos of them while they were still on US soil?
