What would happen in America if Mexico became hostile?

I mean, they have 12 million potential troops behind enemy lines.

    It would be a slaughter.on the Mexican side...we more advanced weapons that could potentially wipe them out. But on the other hand some communities in the U.S. would start to see random murders by Mexican Nationals here illegally and legally. They already show their loyalty is not with the U.S.

    If that were to occur we could actually see part of the southwest become occupied by the enemy and a major battle area with non uniformed soldiers...putting our soldiers in harms way because of our rules of engagement is too stringent.

    But there would be citizens that would be on an all out killing spree on non U.S. looking people.

    But that's just my idea of what could happen.

    I'm not sure, but I think it was Mao Tse Tung who said that the best way to destroy a country is from the inside out. That is exactly what they are doing, and the government has no idea who they really are or where they are. They march through the streets flying our flag upside down saying that this is their country. They are hostile, and the war is beginning.

    What would happen? Lots of things would happen. If they had to meet in a battlefield somewhere USA would probably win unless an an asteroid mysteriously hit our troops. The thing is, that if hostilities did exist which I doubt they will it would be better for both sides to negotiate. To have a prosperous country we need a peaceful North America. They are our second biggest trading partners and we are their biggest trading partner. So a fight between us would be beneficial to who? Bin Laden...

    If every Mexican was to fight for Mexico, then only around 8 million illegal immigrants would be doing so, since there are 12 million illegal immigrants from all around the globe, not just Mexico.

    I'm confident they would go back home without a shot ever being fired. On the other hand, well, let your imagination run wild. didn't your parents speak of the importance of being educated? # 2 We would eliminate beans, onions, cilantro, tortillas and anything that could be made into a spicy sauce from all grocery stores..

    What - are you worried you'll end up being moved to a reservation like the American Indians?

    Besides - many other nations have bought America -including Iran (listed as oil exporters) - see the attached list

    there are more Americans then Mexicans in Mexico and illegal here in the united states. Americans would defeat Mexico. remember not all Americans are in the military, we have not rules to go by. that will be when the pros will fight along side the antis.

    Yeah, those baby rattles on about a million of them are terrifying.

    I do agree with the point though. We are SUPPOSED to screen who comes.
