Mexico Shamed Into Drug Arrest
Mexico Finds Drug Tunnel Extending From Tijuana to California
OK...so they didn't really "find" the tunnel: The U.S. DEA "found" the other end of the tunnel and told them where it was. The headline implies that the Mexicans are being diligent about looking for these tunnels, but the reality is that they didn't have any choice but to raid the home after the DEA notified them.
The Mexican authorities don't really have any interest in stopping the flow of drugs into the U.S.: it pours millions - if not billions - of dollars into their corrupt economy. It's not much different than the illegal immigration across the border. they don't have any desire to stop that for the same reason.
The Mexican border is a huge sieve through which security risks, illegal aliens, and tons of drug pass every day. We can't begin to solve our problems here in the U.S. until we stop importing additional headaches from other countries, and the place to start is there...
