Couldn't the Military Industrial Complex Make Its Money in Mexico?

 Ann Coulter (townhall.com)

As we also know, Mexico's drug cartels have killed more Americans than have died in all foreign wars combined. They've killed more Americans than every terrorist group in history. Year after year, they kill more Americans than died in the entire course of the Vietnam War. 

. . ."As we also know, Mexico's drug cartels have killed more Americans than have died in all foreign wars combined. They've killed more Americans than every terrorist group." . . . 

"And in the past 18 months, we've doled out more than $75 billion to Ukraine to fight Vladimir Putin. Please explain how Putin is a greater threat to any American than the wasting away and miserable deaths of hundreds of thousands of our fellow citizens, to say nothing of the gobs of taxpayer money lavished on pointless social services to "rehabilitate" the unrehabilitatable. (Plus the multiple millions lost to pure corruption.)

" Our "foreign policy community" will pay any price, bear any burden, to make some random part of the world safer -- as long as it's not America. 

"Here's how things would have gone if the warmongers, er, "foreign policy community," had been advising Winston Churchill in the run-up to World War II: 

"1925 CHURCHILL: Have any of you read "Mein Kampf"? Apparently, Mr. Hitler lays out a plan for German conquest of all of central Europe. 

"Sir, we're not wasting our time on that nonsense. Please focus: The important thing is that Chile just elected a liberal democrat, Emiliano Figueroa, who faces major opposition from the far-left labor party. They hate us for our freedoms! Britain's No. 1 foreign policy goal is to back Figueroa. 

"1928 CHURCHILL: Is anybody paying attention to this Hitler chap in Germany? He's barking mad, and he's a lot closer to England than any Chilean leftists. What? Are you a blood and soil type? We've pulled out of Chile, anyway. It's now ruled by a dictator. 

"1933 CHURCHILL: I know I'm sounding like a broken record, but "Mein Kampf" just became a bestseller in Germany. . .

. . ."It would be great if our military would concentrate on defending America. Can't the military industrial complex make its money in Mexico?"
