It worked in 1846. If Mexico disputes the border, we can give them a rematch of the Mexican-American War.

Which they never will.

I am against any type of war and always have been, just for a bit of background. At this point I realize Mexico is not our friend and we owe them no quarter. They have their own agenda to reconquer their lost territory and are not shy about pushing it. Mexico is corrupt from top to bottom and we will soon find out if their latest "deal" with our president is just more lip service. We do not have to declare war on Mexico to protect our borders. If they see it that way then we go from there. I think they know they deserve whatever they get. How much abuse do we take from them?

I once thought how nice it would be to have a civilized nation as a neighbor and be able to travel safely through it. We may have won the birth lottery by being born in the USA but we sure do have some shitty neighbors.

Can you imagine what the world would look like if we hadn't toppled Muslim middle eastern governments and funded terrorist nations and various Muslim sects to fight among themselves for the past 70 years?

Rather than endlessly fighting and destroying their economies and infrastructure, one of the sects would have gained power and conquered the other Muslim nations, using their vast, vast, vast oil wealth and vast human resourced to create a superpower to rival us... we'd be at war with a global Islamic State and a single caliphate with 2 billion followers and the world would be fucked.

It's easy to be a pacifist when better men are fighting and dying for your freedom.

I'm not a pacifist by any means. I just need a good reason to fight. If a single caliphate picked a direct fight with us then we fight. All this jockeying for position ate away at our resources for years. Let them sort it out.
