The cartels will be offering 100,000 as ransom though, so I don’t know…. Maybe there is an arbitrage opportunity here?

She was kidnapped in November and now suddenly they want to get off their asses?

Also how much for the dog?

Remember J-UCAS? The navy took ownership of that and evolved it into a number of UAV programs compatible with the carriers.

Remember, you only found out the US equipped Hellfire missiles with swords that can assassinate a man in their home when they deployed it. So while you know they already have a refuelling drone and all the investments necessary to launch drones like that from carriers, don't expect to find out a strike platform is ready until it already struck something.

Why are Americans walking around in Mexico as though they are safe?

I get what u mean but the DoD will pay for out of state abortions without a medical need they are one of the better aspects of medical care and coverage in the US and are closer to what we all should have. It's regular folks that don't get reproductive care specifically in red states.

I don’t get why people think this is a possibility lol

It’s such US jingoism to think that the US would go to war so easily, especially in what’s considered an ally country like Mexico.

Yes, they’ll likely escalate pressure on Mexico, and also push for joint efforts to tackle on cartel issues if it became an endemic problem where cartel war was spilling over the border. M

However, crimes happening IN Mexico to US citizens the response would be so muted to the point of seeming ineffective much like what we see now.

She’s probably dead by now. The cartels don’t give a shit about women and see them as sex slaves.

I doubt the cartels would want this. They make way more by other means and even 100k is chump change for an operation taking months. There is a slim chance she’s involved in some seedy stuff. Either way I’m not certain that escalating this to an international incident will be helpful in the long run for any party.
