Ason García Cantú, famous historian, wrote abundantly. One of his books North American invasions in Mexico Surprised by the long number them, their types, places and magnitudes. Here I collect one of the author’s intentions: to make it clear that, in 200 years of official relationship, with JR Poinsett, as an American agent in Mexico, and José Manuel Zozaya, representing us in Washington, or in the intentions or in the forms the relationship has changed. It was 1822.
Some interventions were very organic, open and cynical, such as the 1846-48 war of disastrous results for us, the punitive expedition in 1916, totally harmless, useless the occupation of Veracruz in 1914, until that strange that seems novel by Emilio Salgari, the Filibustera expedition to Baja California and Sonora.
It was undertaken in 1853 by the American filibuster William Walker with the aim of conquering those Mexican territories. The expedition failed due to the resistance of the Mexican population, but during the intervention two republics, Baja California and Sonora were founded that soon disappeared.
The story, it was already said, is a rosary of dozens of micro and macrintents of Sojuzgamiento from which or we have gone very badly, 1846-48 or simply passed by angry and reconciliations woven by a geopolitical truth: here and thus we had to act on the most unequal stage in universal history.
To face the current situation, we must start from the fact that we would not have weapons to wield against a military enemy, so, before Trump’s cave threats, it is useless to give them more credit than prudence.
The authentic enemy of the homeland is ourselves, doing everything to harm her. We have degraded what their weapons would be: enjoy health, education, work, security and prestige to the international community. But that approach nobody wants to talk because everyone would correspond a piece of responsibility.
Moving away from him and coming back to Trump’s Bravatas, and choosing the word Bravata with all care. I believe that President Sheinbaum’s attitude is correct in her firmness, serenity and detailed advance. For its part, the rope has been loosening several times, whether intense conversations with the White House or managing to extend the dates of entering tariffs.
I find the inaction of foreign policy unfortunate, being this field where Mexico knows how to move to pleasure. Today, as ashes of those fires, our country is deprived of respectability and even admiration that from the Porfiriato won with cases such as the rescue of President José Santos Zelaya, from Nicaragua, in 1906, or giving coat to numerous liberals of Cuba in 1898, in his emancipatory fighting times.
Seen, the great defender of the homeland is the people and the very concept of sovereignty. Its history is past and destiny, always triumphant. Not in despicable lip. No, the Political Constitution of the United Mexican States, in its articles 39 and 136, clarifies everything:
39. National sovereignty resides essentially and originally in the town. All public power dimins from the people and is instituted for the benefit of this (…).
136. This Constitution will not lose its strength and vigor, even though (…) its observance is interrupted.
Then it is clear that sovereignty is inviolable, in our Constitution the “people” is not only the physical population of Mexico, but the sovereign collective subject, head of the power and origin of state legitimacy, with the ability to form, monitor and transform their government.
His spirit is that of a political community aware of his right to decide and his responsibility to sustain the democratic order. It is the impeccable and diamond homeland, by definition it is unattainable for an adversary.
Continuing mentioning the term sovereignty as insistently as President Sheinbaum does seem to announce vulnerability, it seems that he celebrates exorcisms forgetting that by his spirit the people and their sovereignty are subjects of unprivigable law for drones, carriers and bastards. I repeat, sovereignty is unattainable, inviolable.
The president of the National Defense Secretariat, who has agreed that he will be called defense, a vacuum act of bravery, is second to the president.
To strengthen our arguments, it is worth saying that neither in the spirit has been assumed as possible a territorial armed defense, that is unthinkable given the imbalance vis a vis with EU. The colossus will only bravates, we are not Afghanistan, Iran or Hamas, Vietnam or Panama. We are a country of such dimension and intensity that he will end up respecting.
There will be other ways to confront ourselves with Trump, if he decides, but not the war, that is impossible for the Lord. To defend the homeland, we know that there are values that are discussed in the Constitution as sovereignty that are unattainable. The defense begins from the classroom, continues in the community and, ultimately, is supported by the armed force when this is reasonable.
