Build a fence then give drones to the Mexicans to kill the Zeta leadership. But reason we don’t do this is we figure the Zetas will retaliate by bringing Muslim terrorists across the border
That’s like giving weapons to Pakistan to fight the Taliban/Al’Q. That hasn’t worked out so well wither. Besides, we have already given MexGov all kinds of hardware and training. The Zetas are now armed with it.
Nah.
We don't do it because we know the cartels will bribe the Mexican ground crews and pilots to mount luggage pods stuffed with drugs under the wings for low level flights north across the big river. :-)
Two or three Air National Guard units in Texas and New Mexico fly Predators. Best to keep command and control on this side of the river. Otherwise, excellent idea.
