The border war continues, and is coming close enough that classes were cancelled at UT Brownsville, lest the campus catch a stray bullet.
To the Mexican government's credit, they seem to be aggressively going after at least some of the narcotrafincantes. Whether the government is using the military to help one of the gangs prevail over the others is hard to know at this point; or if the goal is to have persons within the government take the trade over for themselves, also hard to know. Given the history of corruption, both are possible.
Or, it really may be a good-faith attempt to roust the bad guys for real. It is dawning upon the Mexicans that if they want access to the US for anything, they need to begin cleaning house back home. Patience has completely worn out, both with them and Obama, who has spent his efforts suing and blackmailing Arizona.
They read our election results, too.
