News From the Border

Providing the news from a different front but from a war that we must win as well! I recognize the poverty and desperate conditions that many Latinos live in. We, as the USA, have a responsibility to do as much as we can to reach out to aid and assist spiritually with the Gospel and naturally with training, technology and resources. But poverty gives no one the right to break the laws of another sovereign nation.

MEXICO CITY (AP) -- Mexican President Felipe Calderon said there will be "no truce and no quarter" in his war on drug gangs following the killing of seven law enforcement officials in an apparent attempt to intimidate the federal government.

Flanked by the commanders of the army, navy and air force, Calderon told troops at a military base that the government will not be strong-armed by organized crime.

"We are not going to surrender, neither from provocation nor attacks on the safety of Mexicans," Calderon said. "We will give no truce or quarter to the enemies of Mexico."
