America is already subject to terror all along our 2000 mile southern border. In the last few years there have been hundreds of Mexican militay "incursions" into the border states as reported here and elsewhere. The latest is the threats to sheriff deputies and their families in Texas. In AZ the Game and Fish Dept. advises hunters and fishermen not to go south of the I-10/I-8 interstates because of "homeland security issues". Border Patrol agents in AZ have been threatened and attacked. So, to further your point Mr. Bolton, the southern part of AZ has been ceded to Mexico and Texas is under attack.

Lassitude of immigration law and border enforcement, allows for the immigration of terrorists who use threats to gain cooperation from officials such as police. They can gain control of entire divisions of a country, as in Colombia. If these are unstoppable 'market forces' as the administration likes to pretend; we can use all manner of force against such and such 'market forces'.
