NIETO AND MEXICO’S TRUE FEAR
From time to time, I break my rhythm of topics and go back
to one some of you know I have followed for years. Mexico. Why? Because Mexico
matters. Mexico is the anchor of keeping order in Central and South America.
Mexico is a key component that holds the fate of the US’s internal security.
Like it or not, that statement is true. So, here we go. Here is a post about
something that is important to those who rely on the US and those who would
like to see the US fall.
Nieto. He’s been a disaster for the Mexican people. His
College, Rich Boy looks and his inept ability to understand what dangers face Mexico
have proven to be a cocktail blended for failure. Did I mention he is corrupt?
Sorry! I forgot that part. Those that have followed my post for the past few
years know I’ve been speaking to the issue of social stress in Mexico for some
time now. Yes, most political systems are corrupt, but the process in Mexico is
far above the norm and has been for over a hundred years. So, what caught my
eye? What made me give this Mexico update today? Well, let’s talk about it.
The Real Threat:
Again, for those that know me or have followed these post,
you know where I am going with this section. What is the real threat to the
current political system in Mexico? Drugs? Nope! Frustration of the working
class? Yep! The continued decay of the very social fiber that holds 90% of the
geographical landmass of Mexico together? Yep! What really worries the Mexican
political system? Change. That is what worries them. Once again, we need to
face the reality of the current Mexico. The primary source of income is the
illegal drug industry. Yes, Mexico has oil and yes Mexico has their tourism,
for now, but the money that makes the political system in Mexico work comes
from the drug world and anyone who has every worked with the issue of Mexico
knows this to be true. The rich of Mexico City, who are not tied to the drug
world, are just as dependent on the actions that take place in Mexico because of
those who conduct the drug business. It’s ok for “Elites” of Mexico City to
watch the violence 400 miles away as long as it’s not taking place in their
gated, guarded, neighborhood. As the rest of the nation continues to fall
apart, those who live inside the walls of armed guards simply have plans to
move their money and move their families. Harsh words I know, but the true is
often the most painful words spoken. The threat to Nieto, and those like him,
does not rest with drug violence. The treat resides with a civilian population
that no longer trust or believes in their government. The real threat comes from
civilians who are encouraged to seek the truth. Those that push this message of
seeking the truth, they are the real threat to Mexico’s Political System.
131:
From the very beginning of Nieto’s climb to power, he had no
idea what was going on in Mexico. His ties to the Sinaloa Cartel did not
translate into his understand of the real Mexico. When he made his blunder over
the “131” issue, it was clear to me he was simply a figurehead that was going
to be placed in the chair. The Mass murder of the students was yet another
example of Nieto’s disastrous impact on the Mexican People. Those that pulled
the strings tied to his arms and mouth gave him a very clear message. “We
cannot afford to have these events looked into”. Convincing the people that
something was being done, someone was going to be found responsible, that was the
game; not solving the problems that were tearing the nation apart. Make it look
like they cared and then move on. I remember the day I heard the United Nation’s
Human Rights Group may be coming to Mexico. Some of us knew what alarm bells
that was going to set off in Mexico City! With that statement came
international reporters and freelance journalist. The stories some of the Mexican
Journalist had been reporting on for years would be brought back to life. All of
this meant one thing for Mexico’s Political System, danger! By the way, the Pri and the Pan…..two
feathers off of the same bird…..a bird that lives in the cage of the Drug
Master. It was clear then and its clear now, truth is the danger. Reporters
trying to make a name for themselves and advocates who believed Mexico needed
to change. Those were and are the real enemies. Those are the ones that posed
and pose the real danger.
The Greatest Danger:
What keeps the current Mexican Political System up at night?
What is the end state of this hysterical fear of reporters and Rights Groups? Could
someone be using these groups to destabilize Mexico? Yes. Could the enemies of
the US formulate a plan to leverage what is taking place in Mexico? Yes. Could
this lead to a more destabilized US? Yes. Would the US be willing to support
the any action that might keep Mexico “stable”, as “stable” as Mexico can be? Yes. Is there a tipping point? Is there a scenario
that might drive Mexico over the edge, turn Mexico into a real, unavoidable
crisis; a crisis for the US? Yes! What is that “tipping point”? Synergy! Yes,
Synergy! Again, those that know me, know my theory behind the Autodefensas movement.
You know my opinion of Doctor Mireles, no Saint himself, and what he might
bring to the outlands of Mexico. A few years ago, when I was knee deep in
following the Good Doctor, I made a statement. Let the Autodefensas movement
somehow link with the Student movements in Mexico and the real makings of a
revolution would be underway. The ingredients for the Mexican version of the
Arab Spring were there and they were close to each other. Someone just need to
make the meeting take place. No one understood this more than the leadership of
Mexico. No one was tracking what was taking place with both movements more than
Mexico City. How close was this synergy
from taking place? When the massacre of the Students took place, Mireles spoke
of the event. He had to go! Synergy was becoming more and more probable. The
next thing you know, the good Doctor was in prison. Who knew who was talking to
whom? Who was planning what? What was going on with these movements? What
outside groups were medaling in Mexico’s affairs? Does anyone really think that
Nieto would not have approved the use of software to get answers? The whole
world was and is doing it. What the heck. Why not Mexico?
Mexico remains in real trouble. Mexico can undermine the
security of Central and North America. Those that desire to see the US and the
West come under further pressure know this. The weak link in fortress America
is the best place to formulate an attack.
How could the US possibly worry about the Pacific or the Middle East or
even Eastern Europe if its own Southern Border was touching a failed Nation
State? Can the current Mexican government prevent the collapse of the Mexican
People’s trust? Is there any really left? Can the US afford to have a corrupt, incompetent
government in Mexico? Just how important is Mexico to the US? Ask the Iranians.
Ask the Russians. Ask the Chinese! This story matters. Mexico matters to the Western
World.
