The northern Gulf of Mexico basin is USA waters...or at least closer to us than Mexico, so as to divert any claims.

Cathles says that the telltale chemistry of the hydrocarbons reflects the streams and ponds through which they migrated, and thus could point to the ponds that remain to be discovered and produced.Oil doesn't migrate through "streams" or collect in "ponds." Maybe they dumbed this down for the general public, but it's grossly misleading and casts doubts on the seriousness of this study.

So when is the USA going to declare war on Mexico??? Can't do that. Without Mexicans, we'd have to work the packing plants ourselves, or hire Canadians. And just who would mow these 4-acre yards everyone's got nowadays?

There is also a large reserve in the Aegean ocean in the mediteranian.

1846 and we kicked their butts.
Of course the Aztlan are planning "reconquista", so we might have to go through the drill again.

Perhaps this has something to do with the favors Bush has been doing for Vicente Fox.....?

Nah, the oil is ours by the nature of one simple fact, Mexico does not have the capabilities to retrieve it.
To: curiouskiwi
This part of the 'Gulf of MExico'doesn't belong to Mexico - yet.
