“It has become hazardous now given the Mexican drug cartels’ increased military capacity and tactical competence,” Brandan Buck, a research fellow at Cato, wrote.
“Directing American Special Operations Forces against the cartels would put them up against a sizable near-peer competitor in asymmetric warfare, thus putting the US government into a position of little escalatory advantage.
“Such a move would not just force the American military into another quagmire; it would drop them into a morass up to their metaphorical waist.”
Cool, we are invading Mexico.
It won't work because American leaders are all drug addicts.
