Worst thread I have ever opened. What is Mexico going to do for the U.S in the Middle East?

Well the Shia zealot has to make a troll thread I guess.

When has Mexico taken "the opposite side from the U.S. in any international dispute"? According to you they always take the opposite side.

Why is the US in the Middle East? What do you want other countries "to do for the U.S in the Middle East"?

Rasmussen Report: "Mexico better ally than Israel"
So let's see: We have a poll of 800 people, we don't know what part of the country they were from, on a country the US is bordered with and you quote that it's a better ally. Mexico is rarely in the news except in the southern US states for the most part. It rarely gets into into international politics due to it's own major problems in which the US spends an average of $9B per year across numerous budgets which includes large chunks of payroll spent of border control by land and by sea. And of course let's not forget the crime that US states have to deal with which are part of state budgets. For for Mexico to be getting an average of $9B per year and only being seen as 10 percentage points higher than Israel doesn't say much for Mexico especially when Canada is 20 percentage points higher than Mexico and costs the US, on average, $3B per year or $6B less than Mexico.

And by the way, since you decided to purposely skip Republicans, 76% of Republicans view Israel an ally.

MX is no ally in any stretch of the imagination.

Ask any Republicans ? It"s always about Mexico
Well since the amount of illegals that from Mexico averages around 7 Million compares the next country which is El Salvador which is 700,000 or 1/10th, most people are going to look at Mexico since it is around 64% of the yearly illegals that enter the US.

And BTW Canadians are around 70,000 or 1/100th and no European country (Europe is a region) even breaks the 1% mark.

That's the usual right wing position towards non-eurpean countries.

If it's the worst thread, what are you doing here, post your own thread.

At least, Mexico is not pushing the US into new war every year.

Mexico is not a welfare state like Israel.

Mexico doesn't spy on the US and sell US secrets on the open market

Bottom line,the polls shows that the majority of Democrats believe that Mexico is a better ally than Israel.

Which Republicans you're talking about? The one in Israel? Are you counting the Republicans members of the Likoud party?
