El Santo (Ebrard) vs United States

Mexican diplomacy, like the political movement that leads it, generates a certain folklore, and on the other side of the band is ridicule.

If an ambassador were to interpret the words of President López Obrador and Secretary Ebrard literally, they would live in another world, perhaps very similar to Macondo.

The soldier Marcelo Ebrard places a green helmet on his head and wears war boots to say: “I would answer that, over my corpse, because we would never allow the force of another country to be used in our territory.”

Ebrard, who also plays the role of presidential candidate, refers to what was said by Congressman Dan Crenshaw. The Republican proposes that the US army fight drug cartels.

On Saturday, a group of accredited ambassadors in Mexico received a call from a government official to inform them that the trip to Yucatan to which they had been invited by the SRE was canceled due to a last-minute trip by Ebrard to Washington. . The trip to Yucatan was scheduled for Monday and would be part of the campaign strategy of the secretary and candidate Ebrard. He already did it on February 2. 65 ambassadors went to Puerto Peñasco, Sonora, to learn about the Sonora Plan for clean energy and a solar power plant.

The most efficient way to dope the polls is to generate a conflict with the United States. Nationalism, cohesive; ultranationalism, idiots. Nothing better than seeing an army of zombies asking for war against the neighbor.

It was customary that in El Santo’s films one could see tricks poorly elaborated by the production, but the covert identity of the masked wrestler provided the main attraction of the stories.

Ebrard can see threads in his tricks.

Dan Crenshaw’s proposal has no chance of being carried out; it is one among thousands that congressmen do in each period. By the way, William Barr also thinks along the same lines as Crenshaw, but he is no longer a civil servant.

A response from Roberto Velasco to the congressmen who request the intervention was more than enough, but above all, investments in lobbying and thinktanks would help to solve this issue, among many others.

But AMLO did not let the opportunity pass. Above all, after she in a press conference compared the security of Mexico with that of the United States.

What is serious is the reality of Mexico: insecurity. It is the main problem that AMLO should solve, however, the president avoids his responsibility by pointing out that the United States is more insecure. Fake.

Kenzaburo Oé, wonderful Japanese writer, has died. He was the author of the following phrase that AMLO and Ebrard should reflect on: “If you lie to get out of trouble, you have to do it in a way that you don’t need to lie again when the truth is known.”
