The most hilarious part of extending the "war on drugs/terror" to Mexico is that even any NPC that watched "Sons of Anarchy" knows that the CIA is a big part (and possibly runs the whole thing) of the drug trade. If I were AMLO, I would respond to allegations that Mexico "isn't doing enough to stop the drug trade" by having the cartels remand a half-dozen CIA agents to the Mexican authorities for hanging. After the executions, AMLO could then tell the world that the battle is being won, while winking and holding a little piece of paper that says, in English: "still wanna play, USA?"
